3 Beauty Items You Should Use Every Single Day

Skincare is an everyday part of our lives. We want to maintain the good appearance and condition of our skin so we make sure to do our complete beauty regimen every day without fail.

As we grow older, we realize that simply washing our face every night before going to bed does not cut it. A good skin care regimen is a balance of cleansing, exfoliation, moisturizing and sun protection. As early as our 20’s, we should learn how to properly take care of our skin to avoid blemishes and early signs of skin aging.

We give you some basic beauty items one should never skip to give way to better-looking skin.

Sunscreen 24/7

Skin care experts have always stressed how important it is to protect our skin from the harmful rays of the sun. However, some of us ditch the sunscreen on cloudy and rainy days. Wearing sunscreen should not be only reserved for days at the beach or days when the sun is scorching hot. It is highly important that we wear sun protection daily, even if we’ll be inside all day. According to a research by the United States Skin Cancer Foundation, people who are inside all day, especially those who are near windows still get exposed to harmful UV rays for a short period of time. It is also important to reapply sunscreen several times throughout the day to receive better skin protection.

Lather on the cream

As we reach our late twenties to thirties, the skin becomes evidently dryer because the production of new skin cells in the body slows down. The levels of collagen and elastin in the body also goes down, resulting in the formation of wrinkles and fine lines. When we notice these changes in our skin, we should pile up on the moisturizing and hydrating creams. Anti-aging creams lessen wrinkles and makes the skin softer and more contoured. Apply a good moisturizing cream before leaving for work and before retiring to bed at night. It is also important to use different products for day and night. Day creams are lighter on the skin and usually contain sun protection while night creams are thicker and richer in texture.

Choose an excellent base

A good makeup base serves as a strong foundation for your overall makeup look of the day. Choose a good makeup base that eliminates the appearance of lines, pores and wrinkles. Also, the product must make it possible for the makeup to glide smoothly on your skin when applied. Depending on your skin type, the makeup base can have a dewy or a full matte finish. A good makeup base has a medium to full coverage so you won’t need too much concealer to hide skin imperfections. There are plenty of skin blurring products in the market today that gives a soft light focus on the skin, making it look smoother and wrinkle-free. If your eyes look puffy and dark, you can use a separate blur cream to conceal these problems.
