care routine is NOW!
SKIN CARE CLEANSERS the woman beauty products
Today’s women have the choice of several different brands and types of
cleansers. To simplify matters, we group cleansers into two basic
categories: “tissue-off” cleansers and “rinse-off” cleansers.
• Tissue-off cleansers which are normally referred to as
“cream” or “milk” cleansers have a high oil content. It is
these oils, which combine with and help to remove makeup,
facial oils, and grime allowing them to be easily wiped away.
“Tissue-off” cleansers are less drying and are more suitable
for normal to dry skin types.
• Rinse-off cleansers are water-based and incorporate some
type of detergent to help remove makeup and excess oils.
This type of cleanser is recommended for women with oily or
combination skin. It should be mild enough to gently and
effectively cleanse your skin without drying. Gels, foaming
cleansers and facial washes are normally referred to as
“rinse-off” cleansers.
TONERS
There are many misconceptions about the role of toners and astringents
in a skin care routine. Firstly, they are an essential step in the skin care
routine. They remove traces of makeup or residue that your cleanser
misses, and “prepares” the skin for moisturizing.
The term toner, freshener or astringent is often used interchangeably. If
you have normal, combination or oily skin use an astringent containing a
low percentage of alcohol and skin soothers like allantoin. For normal to
dry skin use an alcohol-free freshener with ingredients such as
witch hazel and other natural extracts.
MOISTURIZERS
Moisturizers act as a protective barrier between your skin and the
environment. Although your skin manufactures its own oils, it is usually
removed during the process of cleansing. It is therefore necessary to
replenish these natural oils.
A basic moisturizer should contain water and other ingredients that
attract and trap moisture onto the skin. It should also contain emollients
which nourish the skin.
DAILY MOISTURIZERS (with Sunscreen)
A mere quarter of a century ago, it was not as important to wear a
sunscreen as it is today. The ozone layer, which surrounds the earth,
serves to deflect the harmful ultra-violet (UV) rays of the sun. Over the
years this layer has steadily deteriorated, allowing through far more
harmful UV rays.
Every day you are exposed to UV rays that damages your skin causing
sunburn, skin diseases and premature aging. UVB rays cause sunburn
especially in the summer while UVA rays are responsible for premature
aging. These UV rays are present every day whether the sun is out or
not.
We strongly advise that you wear a sunscreen all year round. Sunscreen
is no longer a summer time practice. It must become a part of your daily
routine.
