Round The Clock Skincare

A good skincare routine means that you have to make time for it.

Embracing a good skincare routine means that you have to make time for it. It is time consum-ing when done properly, but just like all other routines - it requires discipline and you have to be devoted to the regime in order to see the results.

The first and the most crucial part of your skin routine is cleansing. More often than not, this is the step that we rush through or spend very little time on. Airborne bacteria, dirt, pollution, makeup and SPF needs to be removed properly.

I strongly suggest the Korean method of Double Cleansing. You can use coconut oil and massage it into skin for a minute to remove all residue from your skin. If you are acne prone, skip the coconut oil and use a balm like Clinique’s ‘Take the day off’ Cleansing Balm. Rinse your face with warm water and a fresh damp washcloth to open up pores, then apply a foaming facial wash. You can pick Neostrata’s ‘Glycolic Facial Wash’ where the glycolic helps brighten as it cleanses.
