Wash with a gentle cleanser<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the day, our skin goes through a lot. Dead skin, dirt, oil, and environmental stressors and impurities build up on the skin. Cleansing with a <strong>gentle cleanser removes these impurities and leaves skin<\/strong> glowing.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rest of your skincare products can absorb better and work more effectively when you start with a <strong>clean base.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recommended gentle cleanser:<\/p>\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Rice Milk And Salicylic Acid Face Cleanser<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agelessbelle.co.ke\/product\/rice-milk-and-salicylic-acid-cleanser\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1000\" class=\"wp-image-6126\" style=\"width: 277px; height: 345px;\" src=\"https:\/\/agelessbelle.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Face-Cleanser.jpg\" alt=\"Ageless Belle\u00ae Face Cleanser\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Face-Cleanser.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Face-Cleanser-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Face-Cleanser-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Face-Cleanser-600x750.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agelessbelle.co.ke\/product\/rice-milk-and-salicylic-acid-cleanser\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rice Milk And Salicylic Acid Face Cleanser<\/a><\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Ageless Belle\u00ae Organic Bath Soap<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"wp-image-6131\" style=\"width: 286px; height: 190px;\" src=\"https:\/\/agelessbelle.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Organic-Soap-Set-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Ageless Belle\u00ae Organic Soaps\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Organic-Soap-Set-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Organic-Soap-Set-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Organic-Soap-Set-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Organic-Soap-Set-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Organic-Soap-Set-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Organic-Soap-Set.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agelessbelle.co.ke\/?filtering=1&amp;filter_product_cat=104\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ageless Belle\u00ae Organic Bath Soap<\/a><\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Skincare Routine <strong>Step 2. Use an Alcohol-free Toner<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Skincare has evolved, and alcohol-free toners are a must-have for every skin type! Toner gives your skin an extra shot of nutrients to prepare it for the next steps in your routine. <strong>It&#8217;s not for &#8220;removing the remaining dirt or balancing the pH,&#8221; <\/strong>as some say<strong>.<\/strong> Instead,\u00a0<span style=\"letter-spacing: 0px;\">a pH-balan<\/span><strong style=\"letter-spacing: 0px;\">ced cleanser<\/strong><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0px;\"> leaves your skin well cleansed and pH-balanced.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Long ago, people used toners to balance the skin&#8217;s pH after using an alkaline soap for cleansing or any other unbalanced product. Our face cleansers tend to be more pH-balanced and gentle, so toners have evolved into a skincare category. Today&#8217;s reformulated toners target a wide range of skin concerns.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recommended alcohol-free Face Toners:<\/p>\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Neroli Rooibos Beauty Tonic (Toner)<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" class=\"wp-image-6132\" style=\"width: 254px; height: 381px;\" src=\"https:\/\/agelessbelle.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rooibos-Toner-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Neroli Rooibos All skin types toner\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Rooibos-Toner-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Rooibos-Toner-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Rooibos-Toner-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Rooibos-Toner-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Rooibos-Toner-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Rooibos-Toner.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agelessbelle.co.ke\/product\/neroli-rooibos-refreshing-toner\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Neroli Rooibos Beauty Tonic (Toner)<\/a><\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Neroli Troubled Skin Toner<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" class=\"wp-image-6136\" style=\"width: 250px; height: 374px;\" src=\"https:\/\/agelessbelle.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Troubled-Skin-Toner-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Troubled Skin Toner skincare Routine\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Troubled-Skin-Toner-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Troubled-Skin-Toner-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Troubled-Skin-Toner-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Troubled-Skin-Toner-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Troubled-Skin-Toner-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.agelessbelle.co.ke\/sofatut\/2022\/09\/Troubled-Skin-Toner.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agelessbelle.co.ke\/product\/soothing-neroli-troubled-skin-toner\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Neroli Troubled Skin Toner<\/a><\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Skincare Routine <strong>Step 3.

Moisturize<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Do not skip this step. Moisturize, moisturize and moisturize. <\/strong>You may ask why the emphasis? Moisturizers aren&#8217;t meant to make your skin oily; they&#8217;re meant to keep it hydrated<strong>. <\/strong>Whether you have <strong>oily or dry skin<\/strong>, moisturizing is a must.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moisturizers help nourish and hydrate your skin and seal in all the goodness you have put onto your face in the serum step of your skincare routine. In addition, other moisturizers offer additional benefits like soothing, brightening and anti-ageing, which you can opt for if you need an added boost of nourishment or skin-healing benefits.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Face Elixir\/Oil functions as an emollient<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>and an occlusive. <\/strong>Emollients <strong>add moisture,<\/strong> and occlusives lo<strong>ck it in<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because face oils are plant-based, they&#8217;re rich in antioxidants that help neutralize free radicals and reverse damage from the sun&#8217;s harmful UV rays and environmental pollutants. In addition, these oils <strong>restore our skin&#8217;s natural strength and firmness to promote healthy, radiant skin.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Facial oils work alongside the skin&#8217;s natural oils to balance <span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">complexion,\u00a0<strong>lock in moisture,<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>reduce <\/strong><\/span><strong>natural sebum production<\/strong>, with many other benefits. Face oil also offers a perfect primer\/base for your makeup.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We recommend using face elixir\/oil as part of your daily skincare routine by applying two to three drops of face oil, depending on your skin type and concerns, in your morning routine <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecut.com\/2020\/01\/the-common-moisturizer-mistake-in-your-skincare-routine.html\"><strong>after applying moisturizer.<\/strong><\/a> (There is a big debate about which one comes first.<\/p>\n<p>Apply sunscreen and makeup after the oil.

Then, relax. We present a simple, easy-to-follow, results-oriented 5-step skincare routine\u00a0for both men\ud83d\udc68\ud83c\udffd and women\ud83d\udc69\ud83c\udffd. But before you start on the steps, I want you to think about your skincare goals. What are you trying to achieve with your skincare routine?\u00a0For example, if you have oily skin, your goal should be to manage that extra shine. And if you have dry skin, you may want to keep it hydrated and get that coveted glow. Once you have a goal, you can gather products to help you achieve it. One last thing before we dive in, skincare results don&#8217;t happen overnight!! But the more you take care of your skin, the better your skin will look and feel in due time. So set aside some time in the morning and evening to invest in your skincare game. It\u00a0will pay off, trust me! This routine will keep your skin healthy and glowing at every age. Discover how these basic skincare routine steps can up your beauty regimen. Skincare Routine Step 1. Wash with a gentle cleanser During the day, our skin goes through a lot. Dead skin, dirt, oil, and environmental stressors and impurities build up on the skin. Cleansing with a gentle cleanser removes these impurities and leaves skin glowing. The rest of your skincare products can absorb better and work more effectively when you start with a clean base. Recommended gentle cleanser: Rice Milk And Salicylic Acid Face Cleanser Ageless Belle\u00ae Organic Bath Soap Skincare Routine Step 2. Use an Alcohol-free Toner Skincare has evolved, and alcohol-free toners are a must-have for every skin type! Toner gives your skin an extra shot of nutrients to prepare it for the next steps in your routine. It&#8217;s not for &#8220;removing the remaining dirt or balancing the pH,&#8221; as some say. Instead,\u00a0a pH-balanced cleanser leaves your skin well cleansed and pH-balanced. Long ago, people used toners to balance the skin&#8217;s pH after using an alkaline soap for cleansing or any other unbalanced product. Our face cleansers tend to be more pH-balanced and gentle, so toners have evolved into a skincare category. Today&#8217;s reformulated toners target a wide range of skin concerns. Recommended alcohol-free Face Toners: Neroli Rooibos Beauty Tonic (Toner) Neroli Troubled Skin Toner Skincare Routine Step 3. Apply A Face Serum Serums are highly concentrated formulas that address specific skin issues. As a result, they offer powerful benefits for your skin.\u00a0That&#8217;s why serums are often\u00a0the most expensive products in your skincare routine! Although we have a variety of serums, your choice depends on what works for you. Remember to read the labels to understand what you put on your skin. The benefits you are getting, and what works with what. Some skincare actives do not work well together. Recommended Face Serum: HA Liftonin\u00ae Collagen Boost Serum \u00a0 \u00a0 Skincare Routine Step 4. Moisturize Do not skip this step. Moisturize, moisturize and moisturize. You may ask why the emphasis? Moisturizers aren&#8217;t meant to make your skin oily; they&#8217;re meant to keep it hydrated. Whether you have oily or dry skin, moisturizing is a must. Moisturizers help nourish and hydrate your skin and seal in all the goodness you have put onto your face in the serum step of your skincare routine. In addition, other moisturizers offer additional benefits like soothing, brightening and anti-ageing, which you can opt for if you need an added boost of nourishment or skin-healing benefits.\u00a0 Face Elixir\/Oil functions as an emollient\u00a0and an occlusive. Emollients add moisture, and occlusives lock it in. Because face oils are plant-based, they&#8217;re rich in antioxidants that help neutralize free radicals and reverse damage from the sun&#8217;s harmful UV rays and environmental pollutants. In addition, these oils restore our skin&#8217;s natural strength and firmness to promote healthy, radiant skin. Facial oils work alongside the skin&#8217;s natural oils to balance complexion,\u00a0lock in moisture,\u00a0and\u00a0reduce natural sebum production, with many other benefits. Face oil also offers a perfect primer\/base for your makeup. We recommend using face elixir\/oil as part of your daily skincare routine by applying two to three drops of face oil, depending on your skin type and concerns, in your morning routine after applying moisturizer. (There is a big debate about which one comes first. Apply sunscreen and makeup after the oil. You can also use face oil at night to preserve the skin&#8217;s hydration and boost elasticity, nourishment, and rejuvenation. Recommended Face Moisturizer and Face Elixir\/Oil. If you&#8217;re considering adding a face oil to your routine, our guide to natural oils for mature skin explains some of the oils commonly used in nourishing skincare.

Protect with a Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen Applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen SPF 30+ is a final and vital step in the morning routine. However, this step isn&#8217;t necessary for the night routine: there are no UV rays at night. So, if you only have time for one step, this is it! Skin experts say sunscreen is a must-have skincare product.\u00a0 Protecting your skin from\u00a0harmful UVA and UVB rays is crucial, no matter how cloudy or rainy it is outside. Just because you can&#8217;t see the sun doesn&#8217;t mean the harmful UV rays are absent! Recommended Sunscreen: Suncare Max\u2122 Sunscreen FINAL THOUGHT While the steps above form the\u00a0basis of a simple skin routine, adding extra steps as needed isn&#8217;t a bad idea. For example,\u00a0chemical exfoliation once or twice a week can help regenerate your\u00a0skin faster. You can also add a spot treatment if your skin is acne-prone to help control your breakouts. The rule of thumb isn&#8217;t to pile on tons of skincare products, but to find quality, effective products that work for your skin. But, of course, what works for your BFF might not work for you\ud83d\ude32!
