A Quick Guide to Beautiful Skin

Every skincare routine will be unique to the individual, but there are basics everyone can follow to achieve beautiful skin. The first step is to create your routine, preferably one you won't have trouble performing every day. Start simple with the first three basic steps and expand your routine as needed when you better understand your skin's needs.

Step #1 Cleansing

Cleansing twice a day, once in the morning and again in the evening, will improve your complexion. The morning cleanse will remove sweat and oil collected from your pillow overnight. People with dry skin can skip the morning cleanse but should still rinse with clean water.

The evening cleanse is critical because it removes any traces of skin-care products, excess oil, dead skin cells, sweat, and debris that's collected on the skin throughout the day.

Choose a gentle, hydrating cleanser. All skin types can benefit from hydration, but fragrance-free varieties that use minimal ingredients are the best ones for beginners. Also, check for glycerine and ceramides for maintaining the skin barrier.

Step#2 Moisturise

The next step in a straightforward routine to create beautiful skin is to moisturise with an oil-free and fragrance-free moisturiser. These are great products for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin types.

Additional ingredients will help with other skin concerns, so look for moisturisers that contain the following:

• Ceramides for strengthening the skin barrier
• Vitamin for brightening overall skin tone with beneficial antioxidants
• Hyaluronic acid plumps and hydrates the skin.

If you have acne-prone or oily skin, too much washing without moisturizer will trigger excessive oil production. All skin, even oily types, will benefit from daily moisturising, so look for noncomedogenic moisturisers that won't block pores and cause more breakouts.

Step #3 Protect Your Skin

The third step for creating beautiful skin is to protect it. Never leave home without a good quality sunscreen, even if it's cloudy. An SPF of 30 or higher is recommended and keep some handy for reapplying every few hours. You have two primary choices when selecting sunscreen: chemical or mineral-based.

Chemical sunscreens protect the skin by absorbing UV rays after they have penetrated the skin and rely on ingredients like avobenzone and octocrylene. Mineral-based sunscreens block the sun's rays before they can penetrate the skin's layer, which is thanks to ingredients like titanium dioxide and zinc oxide.

Step #4 Master Other Methods

Once you master the basics and have your skincare routine down to a fine art, most people like to add extra steps or experiment with other methods. For example, exfoliation can be done around twice a week to remove dead skin cells that block pores and cause acne breakouts. 

Serums and masks are more advanced skincare routines that can target specific issues, but they should be applied before your moisturizer. Serums are an excellent way to boost your skin's hyaluronic acid and vitamin C content. Face masks are formulated to target specific conditions and should only be used once or twice a week at most. 

Step #5 Hair Removal Strategy

Hair removal is an important step for enjoying beautiful skin. Most hair removal techniques are either inconvenient, painful, expensive, or irritating to the skin. Fortunately, there is an alternative that's as easy as applying a moisturizer every day, takes a lot less time than shaving, is far more affordable than laser, and is less painful than waxing.

No Grow is formulated to interrupt your hair's natural growth cycle. While it doesn't remove hair overnight, continued use of No Grow is one of the best long-term hair removal strategies for creating flawless skin. Simply apply the formula to your problem hair, and in a few months, we are sure it will become an irreplaceable part of your skincare routine.
