Morning Skincare Essentials

Creating a morning skincare routine is essential to help promote healthy youthful skin. What you put into your skincare routine is what you get out, so it’s important to use products that will hydrate and replenish the skin. Here are a few essential items that you should consider adding to your morning skincare routine:

Step 1: Cleanser

Using a cleanser in the morning should be the first step to your skincare routine. Cleansers help reduce oils and remove dead skin cells from the facial area. Using a cleanser in the morning helps to refresh and renew the skin with minerals and vitamins before leaving the house. Gently apply the cleanser onto the skin and remove it with warm water. Studies have shown that using hot water can strip the skin from its’ natural oils needed to promote healthy skin. Using warm water helps protect the skin by preserving its’ natural oils.

Step 2: Moisturizer

The skin needs to remain moisturized at all times. It is important to apply moisturizer onto damp skin so that the vitamins and nutrients can fully penetrate the skin. Apply moisturizer onto the skin thoroughly to prevent flakiness and dry patches from occurring. Also, moisturizers are an essential part of hydrating the skin. When the skin is dry, it becomes easier for wrinkles and fine lines to begin developing. Moisturizers keep the skin hydrated to help reduce visible signs of aging and encourage healthy skin.

Step 3: Eye Care

The eyes are a sensitive part of the body. Studies have found that the first signs of aging occur around the eyes and cheekbones on the facial area. Adding an eye cream to your morning skincare routine helps to protect the skin around the eyes, and limit the chances of fine lines or wrinkles from developing. Furthermore, adding an eye cream to your skincare routine helps improve collagen production in the area to increase tightness and firmness.

Step 4: Sunscreen

Sunscreen should always be applied to the skin before leaving the house for the day. Using sunscreen daily protects the skin from harmful UV rays that contributes to skin cancer and visible signs of aging. The body needs collagen to help support tight, firm skin that snaps back after stretching. Studies have found that UV rays tend to destroy collagen production, which causes the formation of wrinkles and fine lines on the skin. Adding sunscreen to your skincare routine helps to protect the skin and slow down the aging process.
