Tips for Every Skin Type
At Skin Luma Care, we recognize that different skin types come under different treatments.
Here are some helpful tips to bear in mind when setting up your skincare regimen:
Normal Skin
- Cleansing: Wash with a gentle, sulfate-free cleanser to keep skin’s natural balance on point.
- Moisturizing: Lightweight, hydrating, with possibly some humectants, of course.
- Protection: Finally, apply a broad spectrum sunscreen daily of at least SPF 30 to the skin.
Dry Skin
- Hydrate: Use a rich cream or oil-based cleanser to minimize stripping off natural oil.
- Moisturize: Use a rich nourishing moisturizer containing ceramide, hyaluronic acid, etc.
- Seal in Moisture: Use a facial oil for the last step to lock in hydration.
Oily Skin
- Wash: Twice daily, with gel-based cleansers, while keeping control on excess oil.
- Exfoliate: Exfoliate acne with a BHA (salicylic acid) product 2 to 3 times weekly to keep pores clear.
- Moisturize: Truthfully, you should have a non-comedogenic, oil-free moisturizer, so your skin does not become unbalanced.
Combination Skin
- Zone Care: Use different products for oily areas (like the T-zone) and dry areas.
- Hydrate: Choose a balanced formulation that will tackle both the dryness problem and the greasiness.
- Exfoliate: Use a gentle exfoliating product such that you do not over-dry your skin.
Sensitive Skin
- Go Fragrance-Free: Use gentle cleansers and moisturizers with no fragrance.
- Soothe: Search for calming ingredients: aloe vera, chamomile, or niacinamide.
- Patch Test: Always test on an inconspicuous area of the skin so as to avoid irritation or reaction.
Aging Skin
- Stimulate Collagen Production: Apply products that include retinol, peptides, or vitamin C.
- Moisturize: Seek out moisture-rich moisturizers containing hyaluronic acid and antioxidants.
- Sun Protection: Never skip the SPF if you want to halt premature aging.
