Skin Routine

Let's start off with basics. If you want to have a natural-looking flawless skin, foundation and concealer are not the answers. The more you conceal, the more your pores will be blocked and this causes break outs and pimples. Always keep your face clean so you don't get pimples and you can save time and money on make-up.

Number 1 Rule: NEVER TOUCH YOUR FACE WITH DIRTY HANDS! Even if your hands look clean, you should never touch your face unless you have just washed them with soap/hand wash. Your hands  can easily transfer dirt and bacteria, causing pimples!

Skin care routine: 
*Remember to do your skin care routine twice a day!*

Step 1: Cleanse your face and neck with a cleanser. (Don't forget the neck, our poor neck is often neglected but it is exposed to the external environment just as much as the face!)
Step 2: Wet a cotton pad with toner and wipe your face in an upward motion. Toner helps remove dirt further. Some toners can dry your skin out so make sure it is alcohol-free.
Step 3: Apply an oil-free moisturiser all over face and neck. Oil-free moisturisers don't block pores so they prevent pimples, great for oily/combination skin type, but also for (some) dry skin.

*Exfoliate and apply face masks 2-3 times a week too to keep your skin soft and healthy!*

Ta da! Your routine is complete! Now you can apply your make-up or other extra products to nourish your skin. I will post the products that I use and review on them later so stay tuned :)
