A natural skin care routine can be a great way to avoid potentially harmful synthetic chemicals and use more environmentally friendly options. Here are some steps to follow for a daily skin care routine at home using natural products:
-
Cleanse: Use a face wash thats full of skin-nourishing vitamins, such as vitamin A, vitamin B2, vitamin B12, and vitamin E. You can also use natural cleansers like yogurt, honey, avocado, and aloe vera.
-
Exfoliate: Use a natural exfoliant like oatmeal or sugar to remove dead skin cells and reveal brighter, smoother skin. This step is optional and should only be done occasionally.
-
Apply a Face Mask: Use a natural face mask to hydrate and nourish your skin. This step is also optional and should only be done occasionally.
-
Apply a Serum: Use a natural serum to target specific skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, or dark spots.
-
Tone: Use a natural toner to balance your skins pH levels and prepare it for moisturizer. This step is optional.
-
Moisturize: Use a natural moisturizer to hydrate and protect your skin. You can use oils like coconut oil, olive oil, or jojoba oil, or aloe vera gel.
Its important to note that natural ingredients can be inconsistent in makeup, so it’s hard to measure effectiveness and potency. Some natural ingredients, like essential oils, can also cause irritation to the skin. Additionally, the timeline for seeing results from natural skincare products can vary depending on various factors, from the specific product and how often it is used, to the individual’s skin type and skin concern.
When starting a natural skin care routine, its important to introduce it slowly to see how your skin reacts. If any of your natural skin care products start to smell or change in color or texture, it may be time to discard them.
