• July 10, 2022

Healthy and glowing skin, isn’t it everyone’s desire?

Whether we’re born with it or we have to put some effort to achieve it, the thing is we’ve got to get better skin! Don’t we beauties?

We might have to work for our best self, but the upside is that we’ve got lots of options to help us get there and of course Dr. Costi is here with us every step of the way. So what are some habits that can get us to our skin goals?

“A great skin routine starts with understanding your skin and helping it with the best products it needs, every day” assures us Dr. Costi.

So let’s start by checking the best products we should include in our daily habits, according to our skin type.

 

What’s your skin type?

Normal: it feels balanced, neither too oily nor too dry. Also not excessively sensitive and does not react.

Oily: your T-zone is shiny and sometimes greasy, and you may be acne prone.

Dry: it feels tight and itchy, especially after washing.

Combination: your T-zone is oily and the cheeks and rest of the face are dry.

Sensitive: you react to any product and gets irritated easily (especially after sun exposure).

Best habit for your skin type?

 

For normal skin: Cleanse

Cleanse your skin with a non-foamy or gentle sulfate-free cleanser. Keep it fresh while getting rid of any excess oil or grime that may have settled into your pores.

We like the Soskin Pure Gentle purifying cleansing gel which rids the skin of impurities and excess sebum. It’s a soap-free anti-imperfection formula to restore skin clarity and freshness.

 

For oily skin: Exfoliate

Depending on your tolerance levels, you may use a gentle AHA/BHA exfoliant twice a week. If you prefer physical scrubs, use a mild product once a week to clear blackheads, whiteheads, and clogged pores to reveal luminous skin!

We recommend the Resultime night peeling lotion which combines Repluming Collagens with 4 AHAs and Salicylic Acid for a double action: global anti-aging and gentle daily peeling. It provides a retexturizing action for a “new skin” effect.

For dry skin: Moisturize

You need extra hydration with a good rich moisturizer. Pick hydrating ingredients such as dimethicone, ceramides, and glycerin. Also, make sure that the formula is oil-free and non-comedogenic for beautiful skin. We love the Soskin Restorative moisturizing day  cream to nourish dry and dehydrated skin.

For combination skin: Purify

Use toners that are specially formulated to cleanse the skin without drying out. Look for ingredients like salicylic acid, witch hazel and green tea.

Try the balancing Herbal Dynamics toner rich in powerful botanicals like cucumber and sage to nourish and protect skin’s pH balance, while hyaluronic acid hydrates and the papaya extract naturally exfoliates. It’s a natural feast for your senses!

For sensitive skin: Hydrate

There’s just something about a cooling mist that feels so refreshing and even indulgent especially when you’re spritzing on the go. Give your sensitive skin a boost with a hydrating face mist. Spritz a hydrating and gentle facial mist any time through the day to help calm your skin. Pick a mist with antioxidants like the Organic Pharmacy Rose spritz. We are so obsessed with this natural rose fragrance.
