Everything You Need to Know to Start a Natural Skin Care Routine

A solid skincare routine is the cornerstone of good skin care. Well-cared-for skin means you’ll have fewer breakouts, less irritation, and less redness, and you’ll prevent the visible signs of aging. Get serious about these things, and it will make you look prettier almost instantly — and ensure you age gracefully for the rest of your life. Most important, however, is the satisfaction that comes from a daily self-care ritual. It just feels good. All you need to do is to maintain your skin by building a simple and natural skincare routine.

Below are the various skin types and steps to glorify your skin by upholding the skincare routine.

Building a Simple and Natural Skin Care Routine

Natural skin care routines are often based on minimalism and include clean products that do not contain harsh or irritating ingredients. The central part of any skincare usually consists of the following steps according to skin type.

STEP 1: Cleansing

The face should be washed morning and night to remove dirt, grime, makeup, and product residues. This results in clean, healthy skin and prepares your skin for any natural skincare products you use next.

Aloe vera face cleansers moisten the face with lukewarm water and gently massage it into the skin before washing and drying. For oil cleansers and conditioners, apply the cleaner to dry skin, massage, then rinse with water.

Oily skin: Use a non-comedogenic oil-free cleanser. Foam and gel cleansers are usually a good choice. The goal is not to remove all the oil from the skin but to help create a balance.

Dry skin: Look for cleansers that have added moisture. Some all-natural skincare ingredients to look for include oils, ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin. A cleansing balm is a great choice.

Combination skin: Choose a gentle cleanser that still has moisturizing properties.

STEP 2: Exfoliating

Exfoliation supports expelling dead skin cells and unclogging clogged pores for smoother, brighter, more radiant skin that looks and feels soothing. Take this step as a regular night treatment for:-

Oily skin: Choose a product with BHA and/or AHA to help unclog pores and eliminate red spots.

Dry Skin: Individuals with dry skin need to exfoliate, but stick to gentle products that contain AHAs or fructose enzymes and don’t overdo it. If you have dry, flaky skin, very mild physical exfoliation can help.

Combination Skin: This skin type is best suited for a mild chemical peel used sparingly. Try a product that combines both AHA and BHA acids.

STEP 3: Eye Cream

An eye cream may seem unnecessary, but some moisturizers are specially made for the delicate and sensitive skin around the eyes. Eye creams, usually thicker in formula, help fill fine lines and lighten the dark skin around the eyes. Choose a product targeting your problem, such as fine lines, rough texture, bags, or under-eye circles.

STEP 4: Moisturizing

Moisturizing is a must, morning and night, and for all skin types (even oily or acne-prone). This step helps to hydrate and retain moisture for radiant, youthful, and healthy skin.

Oily skin: Stick to an oil-free, non-comedogenic formula. Hydrating gel moisturizers are a great choice.

Dry skin: An oil-based moisturizer is best for this skin type. You can apply the hyaluronic acid serum and then the cream to double the moisture. In the evening, choose a thicker formula and face oil.

Combination skin: The gel cream is ideal for daily use, while the oil-based moisturizer is ideal for night use.

STEP 5: Sun Protection

If there’s one product you can always use, it’s a sunscreen with an SPF of 30. Not only is it the best anti-aging ingredient money can buy, but daily use can help protect you from skin cancer. Sunscreen should be applied in the morning as the last step of your skincare routine before applying makeup.

For all-natural skin care, use a mineral sunscreen — sometimes called a physical sunscreen — made with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Avoid harmful ingredients such as oxybenzone, octinoxate, and homosalate in chemical sunscreens.

A pro tip: Dive into one new product at a time and do a field test first. This will help you decide if it will work well for your skin type.

Final Tips for Your Natural Skin Care Routine

Navigating the world of natural skin care products is inherently complicated, as each brand defines what is considered natural. So, choose skincare products wisely that suit your skin type.

Your Skincare Routine Order Explained: How to Apply Your Products

The order in which you apply your skin care products is almost as important as what you put on your face. If you’re new to skincare and it’s all a bit overwhelming, write down the commandment suggested here and pin it to your mirror so you always have a reference nearby. Or order your product in the bathroom and scroll down!

In what manner should I apply Skincare Routine Products?

A wonderful rule of thumb is to apply products from thinnest to thickest — toner, serum, moisturizer, face cream, and oil. Remember to always start with a clean face.

Step 1: Face Cleanser

After removing all makeup, cleanse your face with an oil- or water-based cleanser — or both if you’re double-cleansing! Depending on your skin type, you may only require to wash your face with warm water in the morning. Use a more potent cleanser in the evening, specifically if you have acne-prone or oily skin. Use acne cleansing serum for glowing skin.

Step 2: Face Toner

Toner is designed to remove all the dirt and oil after washing your face. It can also act as a very polite exfoliator, preparing your look for the products you use next. If you have dry skin, you can skip this step. Consider utilizing an alcohol-based toner or witch hazel if you have acne-prone skin.

Step 3: Vitamin C Face Serum

Face Serums are the hustlers of your skincare routine. By gently pressing a few drops onto the skin in the morning and evening, you allow the skin to receive the nutrients it wants. Whether you’re looking to lessen oil production, improve texture, or increase strength, you’ll find a serum that can help. Vitamin C is often recommended as a good serum if you have no particular concerns or are just starting.

Step 4: Spot Treatment

Spot treatments are condensed products that you apply directly to the affected area. Effective ingredients reduce dirt without drying out the whole look. If you currently have no spots, skip this step. If your acne is consistent or cystic, we recommend visiting a dermatologist.

Step 5: Eye Cream

If you are 20 or older, eye cream is a must. The skin around the eyes is susceptible, so it is essential to moisturize the area gently. Gently tap the eye cream into the under-eye place with your ring finger, avoiding the skin closest to the eyes. Applying an eye cream every morning and night will likely reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time.

Step 6: Facial Moisturizer

Lock in serum and moisture with a facial moisturizer. If you have parched skin, you can use a thicker cream, but people with oily skin will want something a little lighter. Even if you have buttery skin, you still need a moisturizer!

Step 7: Face Oil

Face oils add moisture and lock in all the serum goodness! Oils cannot penetrate, so they protect your skin. They also give you a nice dewy glow! If you have oily skin, you can skip using face oil instead of moisturizer. If you’re hesitant about using oil because you have acne-prone skin, try Royal Essence Argan Oil, which can reduce oil production.

The Last Step 8: Sunscreen (AM Only)

If your moisturizer does not contain SPF, you must apply additional sunscreen. We recommend looking for something with an SPF of around 30 to protect the skin from harsh rays. Even if you aren’t in the sun all day, you still need sunscreen.

In a nutshell

Understanding your skin type is one of the most important steps in creating a skin care program. After that, choosing the right and effective skincare products for your skin will keep it healthy and nourished for years. Invest in your skin, it will stay with you for life!
