Dermatologists recommend washing the face with soap twice daily,
the body once daily - and the hands as often as necessary to
keep them sanitary. How do you know which soap is right for you?
Soap used to have a bad reputation because of the inclusion of
harsh detergents, which stripped oil from the skin. However,
that is no longer the case with all soaps anymore.
Before we discuss what skincare routine to follow, you need to
know your skin type. To do so, look at your face in a mirror in
natural daylight (i.e., outside or near a window) and observe
the various areas of your face. In general: Oily skin is shiny -
especially along the T-zone (the forehead, nose and chin
areas),
where oil glands are most prevalent - and tends to break out
with pimples. If you have large pores, these may also indicate
oiliness. Dry skin feels tight and dehydrated and pores may be
very fine. It may also look flaky, and has a rough, papery
texture. Normal skin has a uniform texture and tone that only
occasionally break out in spots. Combination skin has oily and
dry patches: It may be shiny/blemished along the T-zone and
scaly around the cheeks.
Once you have determined your skin type, you use this
information to pay attention to your specific skincare needs.
If your skin is oily and/or acne-prone, select soaps that
contain salicylic acid -- a
skin-sloughing beta hydroxy acid
that keeps pores unclogged. Similarly, choose products with the
pimple-drying ingredient benzoyl peroxide.
For dry skin, stick with gentle, super-fatted soaps, many of
which contain up to one-third moisturizers. Pure glycerin soap
will also help your skin retain moisture. However, avoid
deodorant soaps, which can dry your skin even further.
Those with sensitive skin should opt for hypoallergenic soaps,
and avoid perfumed, antibacterial and deodorant soaps, which can
be irritating. Try to use very little soap, do not scrub too
hard, and make sure to rinse well with cool water (warm or hot
water can be drying).
People with
normal skin have plenty of options: feed your skin
with plant-based soaps, lather up with triple-milled soaps or
use a gentle face bar soap that is non-comedogenic (won't clog
pores).
Those suffering from windburned, sunburned or chapped skin can
calm it with soap rich in soothing glycerin and aloe vera. As
much as possible, avoid bars with overpowering fragrances since
they can irritate the skin further.
Even when you're partying until the wee hours of the morning or
pulling overtime at the office, it's essential to cleanse your
face thoroughly before you hit the sack. Ideally, you should
wash your face twice a day, put on toner, and moisturize
immediately after
cleansing your face. By removing makeup and
daily grime from your face daily, you can avoid clogged pores
and breakouts. However, we don't live in a perfect world and
there will be times when you just want to slip into your bed and
forget about your beauty ritual.
When you're too tired or there isn't that much time to conduct
your full facial regimen, you can save time and effort by using
a multipurpose cleanser that'll strip away dirt, oil, and even
hard-to-remove makeup like waterproof mascara all at once. You
can also try using disposable cloths that you simply moisten (to
activate the built-in cleanser) and smooth over your face to
lift away the day's dirt.
Actimine provides the nutrients needed by your body to regulate the occurrence of acne, eliminating the potential scarring and embarrassment which often result from chronic breakouts.
