How to build a simple skincare routine

By WinkCasa Team · 1 min read

A good skincare routine does not need ten products. Most people do well with four simple steps, done in the same order every day.

1. Cleanse

Wash your face with a gentle cleanser morning and night. The aim is to remove oil, sweat and dirt without leaving your skin tight or dry.

This is where a serum goes. Pick one product for one goal, such as brightening or oil balance, and use it consistently before adding anything else.

Even oily skin needs moisture. A light moisturiser helps your skin keep its barrier in good shape.

In the morning, finish with sunscreen. Apply enough to cover your face and neck, and reapply if you are outdoors for long.

Introduce one new product at a time, so you can tell how your skin reacts.
Patch-test a new product on a small area first.
Give a routine a few weeks before judging it.
If you have a skin condition or a reaction that does not settle, speak to a doctor or dermatologist.
