Expert Advice on How to Streamline Your Skin Care RoutineKeep it simple. |
It's important to tailor your routine to your skin type. For example, those with dry or sensitive skin should watch out for harsh ingredients, particularly in high concentrations. Aharon says that sensitive folks should banish all fragrances, including those naturally derived from essential oils and botanicals.
If your complexion is oily or acne-prone, make sure your skin is getting enough hydration. "Sometimes people with acne don't think they should hydrate their skin, which is a big mistake," explains Zilka. "Use products with hyaluronic acid that will add hydration and bounce to skin without adding oil."
Alster says that most products, particularly those that are too oily or drying, can be stopped immediately. But it's best to avoid changing too many products at once in order to avoid altering your skin's pH level. The good news? Your skin can usually adapt quickly to a new regimen as long as it's not too harsh or extreme.
That's why Zilka suggests a more moderate approach. Try slowly weaning off products so your skin doesn't get shocked. Start by introducing one new product at a time as you let another one go.
