1)WASH UP PROPERLY
The importance of cleansing cannot be emphasised enough.
it removes impurities,dead skin cells from the skin's surface,encouraging a more radiant appearance.Use a cleanser that best suits your skin condition.lather and massage your face gently in circular motions before rinsing off with warm water.
2)PREP YOUR SKIN
Don't forgot this step cus toning removes the last traces of grime left on your skin.
having skin thats slightly moist also allows for better penetration of the moisturizer that follows and reduces the amount of product required.Apply toner to a cotton pad and pat it over your face with upward strokes,avoiding the eye area.
3)SLATHER ON THE MOISTURIZER
Replenish the moisture loss caused by uv rays,air conditioning and pollution.Place four small dots of moisturizer on your face(one on the forehead,one on chin and one each on the cheeks)Then using your fingertips,massage the moisturizer evenly all over your toned face to lock in maximum moisture.A day moisturizer should also contain SPF protection if you're skipping a seperate sunscreen.
4)EXFOLIATE AND PAMPER YOUR SKIN
Exfoliation reveals a new layer of skin and makes your complexion glow!A gentle scrub should contain fine granules that don't aggravate or dry out skin.
Follow this with a mask.Clay and mud masks detoxify skin while sheet masks are usually deeply hydrating or for whitening purposes.Do this once a week for a clear radiant complexion.
ASHA's ULTIMATE BEAUTY TIP:
always remove your makeup using a makeup remover.to remove the gunk in your eyes,op for a seperate eye makeup remover as the skin around your eyes are more delicate.
