Often sisters ask this question, what is the correct skincare sequence?
Today I will tell you about this matter ~~~
First of all, before talking about skincare steps, you must first find out what your skin type is?
1. What skin type are you?
Usually we will divide into four skin types, which are normal, dry, oily, combination, and there is also a sensitive skin is a problem skin, which can also be divided into one skin type.
How do you know what skin type you have?
There are many ways to test your own skin type, and we can also do some simpler tests. For example, in the afternoon and evening, pay more attention to the oiliness of your skin.
* All day long, the face is full of oily skin
* Only the T-zone of the forehead and nose is oily, so it is combination skin
* There is not much oil all day, and it is easy to peel and dry in autumn and winter, that is, dry skin
* If you are not dry or greasy and your skin is in very good condition, then congratulations you are a very rare normal skin

Cleanse
Cleanse your face gently, avoid washing your face too many times a day, preferably morning and evening.
Some cleansers claim to have various functions, after all, only those tens of seconds, how amazing can be, or obediently give other effects to the water milk essence.
As for the facial cleanser, it is good that the cleansing power is strong, the weak acidity is mild, it is not irritating, and it does not harm the sebum membrane of the stratum corneum.
Skincare water
Skin care water plays the function of connecting the top and bottom, which can not only nourish the skin, add sufficient moisture to the skin, but also promote the absorption of subsequent products, and the feeling of use is more comfortable, so when the skin is too dry, wet compresses are better.
prime
The essence has many active ingredients, small molecules, strong penetration and strong function, and intensively nourishes the skin. So young ladies pay attention, after the age of 25, you must use essence, don't wait for wrinkles to climb on your face before thinking about using it.
Eye cream
The eyes are the most likely place to age the whole face, the eye skin is thin, it is easy to grow wrinkles and aging, if you do not take good care of it when you are young, it will be difficult to cry and cry to remedy it later.
Lotion/cream
Lotions/creams can not only nourish and repair the skin, but also lock in moisture and various nutrients, do not pull the skin too hard when applying, apply gently, and cover your face with your hands after application to help absorb.
