It is everyone’s dream to achieve normal skin! Your skin type is normal if your skin isn’t excessively oily, dry or has any kind of sensitivity. People who are naturally blessed with normal skin have to face little to no hassle at all in life regarding their skin. But that doesn’t mean that normal skin doesn’t require any sort of care. It is very important to take regular care in order to maintain normal skin.
Today I am going to share with you a proper skin care routine to maintain normal skin.
Regular cleansing to keep a clean face
Cleansing is the most basic and also the most important step of a skincare routine. A few basic rules of cleansing should be followed, regardless of the skin type. For example, washing your face more than twice can diminish the skin’s natural oil. So, clean your face thoroughly using a mild facewash in the morning and at night. Pond's Daily face wash is pretty popular among mild facewashes and one that you can add to your skincare routine as a daily cleanser.
Use moisturizer to get hydrated and soft skin
The best time to apply moisturizer to your skin is right after washing your face. Try applying moisturizer while the skin is still wet after washing your face. This easily locks the moisture on your skin and keeps your skin hydrated all-day-long.
The best part of having normal skin is that you can choose any moisturizer to your liking. If you prefer a heavy moisturizer, then Pond’s Cold Cream is an excellent choice. And if you prefer a lightweight moisturizer, then you can add Fair & Lovely Advance Multi Vitamin to your daily routine. But I would suggest, even if you use a lightweight moisturizer during the day you should use a heavy moisturizer for the night. This way your skin will have moisture and remain hydrated all-night.
Sunscreen for protection from the sun
One of the most important steps in maintaining a normal skin is to use a sunscreen before going out in the sun. it protects your skin against UV rays, fine lines, sun-burn and wrinkles. The best time to apply sunscreen is right after using moisturizer or 30 minutes before heading out.
Natural Face Mask
To keep your skin naturally glowing and beautiful, try and use this mask 1-2 days a week. I have tried to make this natural mask using 2 ingredients that were around me. This could be the easiest face mask to make for all coffee lovers.
What you need:
- One table spoon of Coffee powder
- 1.5 table spoon of liquid Milk
Properly mix milk and water and apply the mask to your face and neck. Of course, you must first clean your face thoroughly. When the face dries up 10 – 15 minutes later, massage it softly for 1-2 minutes with cold water. This mask will exfoliate the dead cells in your skin and make it glow and feel soft to the touch.
Double cleansing at night
Even if only the face wash is enough for cleansing in the morning, you need double cleansing at night. The amount of dust, dirt and makeup that gets on your face throughout the day, they aren’t easily removed by washing the face just once. When double cleansing, the first step is to clean the skin thoroughly using makeup remover or micellar water, and then wash it using a face wash.
If you want to keep a scrub or an exfoliant in your routine for the night, make sure you apply it after the makeup remover.
Toning and moisturizing
Even after washing your face with water, Chlorine and Minerals remain on your skin which can cause irritation. Toner helps remove the Chlorine and Minerals from your skin. Plus, it works like magic in balancing the spots and tightening the pores in your skin.
You can use a toner you prefer every night. If you don’t want to spend extra money buying a toner, you can easily make a toner at home.
What you need:
- 2 Green-Tea bags
- ¼ cup of Apple Cider Vinegar
Prepare the green tea in boiling water, mix apple cider vinegar after it cools down. You can keep it in a clean glass jar and preserve it for a week in the refrigerator.
Apply the toner on your skin every night using a cotton pad or a cotton ball. Vinegar balances the PH level in your skin to keep it healthy and glowing. Now, apply moisturizer and complete your skin care routine.
Regardless of the skin type, if not cared properly and regularly, a thousand skin problems can occur. To keep your normal skin normal and healthy, try and follow this skin care routine regularly.
