My cleansing routine |
To keep my skin looking healthy,
cleansing (and moisturizing of course) is essential. My cleansing
routine is pretty simple. Here are the products I'm using at the
moment:
1. L'Oreal Triple Active Balance
Cleansing Milk (for normal and combination skin)
2. L'Oreal Vivifying Scrub with natural
apricot micro-beads
3. Boots Tea Tree and Witch Hazel Nose
Strips
First I start by washing my hands, than
I remove my makeup and dirt using L'Oreal Triple Active Cleansing
Milk, by applying it on a cotton pad (sometimes I apply it directly
onto my skin) and then I gently wipe against my face until all makeup
is removed. As I don't have waterproof products, I like to use the
same cleanser for my eyes. After this step I wash my face thoroughly,
then I apply moisturizer. Sometimes I apply an alcohol-free toning
lotion, but I don't have one at the moment.
I know cleansing should be done twice a
day, but I don't do this. Cleansing too frequently can strip the skin
of its natural oils, which will make those with dry skin have even
drier skin. It will also make those with oily skin have even oilier
skin. In the morning I only apply moisturizer and eye cream, than I
proceed with my makeup. When I'm not going outside, I only apply
moisturizer and eye cream.
Once or twice a week I like to deep
clean my face using L'Oreal Vivifying Scrub with natural apricot
micro-beads. I wash my face, put the scrub on my face avoiding eye
area and gently massage the skin in circular motions, then wash and
dry my face and apply moisturizer. I'm also thinking about trying a
chemical peel at home using glycolic acid (ISIS Glyco-A12). I will
tell you the results:)
For blackheads and clogged pores on my
nose I apply nose strips from time to time, as I forget to use them
regularly:) The ones I'm using at the moment are from Boots (Boots
Tea Tree and Witch Hazel Nose Strips), but they're not good at all. I
will review all the mentioned products in another post.
This is my current cleansing routine.
What face cleansing products are you using?

Rutina mea de ingrijire a fetei
Pentru a avea o piele sanatoasa,
curatarea (si hidratarea) ei sunt esentiale.
Rutina mea de ingrijire
a fetei este destul de simpla. Acestea sunt produsele folosite de
mine:
1. L'Oreal Triple Active Balance
Cleansing Milk (pentru ten normal si mixt)
2. L'Oreal Vivifying Scrub cu granule
din samburi de caise
3. Benzi pentru nas Boots Tea Tree and
Witch Hazel Nose Strips
Incep prin a-mi spala bine mainile,
apoi indepartez machiajul si murdaria folosind laptele demachiant
L'Oreal Triple Active, aplicandu-l pe o discheta demachianta
(cateodata il aplic direct pe piele) si sterg usor fata pana cand tot
machiajul este indepartat. Deoarece nu folosesc produse waterproof,
imi place sa folosesc acelasi demachiant si pentru zona ochilor. Dupa
acest pas imi spal bine fata, apoi aplic o crema hidratanta.
Cateodata folosesc lotiune tonica fara alcool, dar in momentu acesta
nu am una.
Stiu ca este indicat sa cureti fata de
doua ori pe zi, dar eu nu procedez asa. Curatarea fetei facuta prea
des poate indeparta uleiurile naturale din piele, facand ca pielea
uscata sa devina si mai uscata, iar pielea grasa devine si mai grasa.
Dimineata aplic doar crema hidratanta si crema pentru zona ochilor,
apoi ma machiez. Cand nu ies afara, folosesc doar crema hidratanta si
cea pentru ochi.
O data sau de doua ori pe saptamana imi
place sa curat pielea in profunzime folosind L'Oreal Vivifying Scrub
cu particule naturale de samburi de caisa. Imi spal fata, aplic
scrub-ul pe fata, evitand zona ochilor si masez usor pielea cu
miscari circulare, apoi ma sterg cu prosopul si aplic crema
hidratanta. Ma gandesc sa folosesc si o crema cu acid glicolic (ISIS
Glyco A-12). O sa va spun rezultatele:)
Pentru punctele negre si porii dilatati
de pe nas folosesc benzi speciale pentru zona nasului, din cand in
cand, deoarece uit sa le folosesc regulat:) Cele pe care le folosesc
in momentul de fata sunt de la Boots (Boots Tea Tree and Witch Hazel
Nose Strips), dar nu sunt bune de nimic. O sa fac review-uri separate
pentru toate produsele enumerate mai sus.
Aceasta este rutina mea de curatare a
tenului in momentul de fata. Voi ce produse folositi?
Kisses,
