TREE STEPS SKIN CARE ROUTINE: When the seasons change, I always take a little time to update my skincare routine. With years of practice, I’ve gotten pretty good at adjusting my line-up depending on the climate .

Finding a routine is actually pretty easy once you master the fundamentals. In simple steps, you can create a fabulous and glowing skin care routine. Seriously. Here’s what you need to know…

Step 3: Moisturizer/ Cream Benefits of moisturizer

A suitable moisturizer can help prevent and treat dry skin.
It can protect sensitive skin, improve skin tone and texture, and mask imperfections.
As moisturizers hold water in the outermost layer of skin, they also act as a temporary barrier for your skin.
It also protects the outer layer of the skin from harmful effects of sun, wind and other environmental factors. Normal skin: This type of skin is neither too dry nor too oily. In order to maintain the natural moisture balance of the skin, it is recommended to use a water-based moisturizer having light and non-greasy feeling. Dry skin: For those having dry skin type must choose a moisturizer that helps to restore moisture to the skin. It is better to use a oil-based moisturizer that contains moisturizing ingredients or petrolatum-based products. Such products will help keep your skin hydrated.
Oily skin: Acne is a common problem for those having oily skin. Though oily in nature, you need to apply a suitable moisturizer on your oily skin. Don't forget to apply a light moisturizer after using skin care products that can remove oil and dry out the skin.
Sensitive skin: Those having sensitive skin must use a moisturizer that contains soothing ingredients such as chamomile or aloe vera. Make sure the product does not contain fragrances or dyes or acids.
Mature skin: As you age, your skin tends to become drier as the oil-producing glands become less active. To keep your skin soft and well hydrated, opt for an oil-based moisturizer that contains petrolatum as the base, along with antioxidants to combat age related skin problems like wrinkles, fine lines, age spots and so on. my favorite day moisturizer gel ..

Facial Mask Benefits

The Benefits of a Facial Mask.
Face masks are one of my favorite skin care products. They’re easy to apply, fun to use and are great at delivering results. My favorite thing about applying a good face mask is the feeling of tightened and toned skin after a single use.
Should everyone use a face mask? Absolutely. Face masks are the perfect skin care treatment to help you with your skin care concerns. The right face mask can help hydrate skin, remove excess oils and help improve the appearance of your pores. They’re also an excellent way to help pull out impurities. Another advantage of wearing a face mask: the feeling of being pampered like you’re at a spa from the comfort of your own home.

1. Refines skin pores:
Face mask can help you to get clearer skin and more refined pores. It deep cleanses the pores and clears the pores of dead skin cells, metabolic wastes and the oily substances that can clog them.
2 Increases hydration:
Face mask can also bring moisture and hydration to dry and dehydrated skin types.
The water from the mask penetrates deep into the skin epidermis to soften the skin and enhance its elasticity. When the skin is hydrated and well moisturized, it becomes easy to apply proper makeup. Also it gives a more plump and youthful appearance to the skin.
3. Diminishes fine lines:
Regular use of face masks can reduce the signs of aging like fine lines, wrinkles, and brown spots and so on. Also you will get to enjoy a softer and smoother skin texture.
4. Gives even skin tone:
Face masks are also designed to diminish hyper-pigmentation and give you more even skin tone and texture. It also promotes the sweat gland secretion so as to increase the oxygen content of the skin. 5. Firmer skin:
Loose skin can make your look older than your age. The problem of loose skin can be
easily solved with regular use of face masks. There are certain types of face masks
that help to enhance collagen production and fight off free radical damage which
will gradually result in firmer, tighter, fresher looking skin.

To achieve this look, I used the medium-sized curling barrel. when i want tighter coils, I use the smallest barrel and the results are fabulous. It was also very easy once I got the hang of using a tool without a clip. I sectioned dry hair into 1-inch sections and wrapped my hair from the base of the iron and held it for a few seconds. It took about 30 minutes to do, so not long at ,if you have short hair you might be able to get the job done more quickly!

My hair stayed put even after being out all day . The Groover includes 8 HeatBalance® micro-sensors to regulate the heat temperature 5 times per second and evenly distribute heat for sophisticated curl styles that shine and last longer.
The barrels heat up in seconds so you don’t have to lose any time while the digital LCD display provides 15 heat temperature settings between 170-450°F to suit your particular hair type and texture.
