I Choose Beauty

There are three top areas that are most important when caring for your skin on your face.

1. Cleansing
2. Moisturizing
3. Protection

It all starts with cleanliness because the other two areas will not work as well if your skin is not properly cleaned.  With all the different cleansers on the market today there is enough information to fill a book, but it is worthwhile

in saying that you do not have to spend a lot of money on a quality cleanser.

Make-up will need to be dissolved with oil-based creams before the face can be properly cleaned, and then your preferred cleanser will remove any residue that could clog up the pores. It is very important to remove all traces of make-up before going to bed at night.  Sleeping with make-up can cause all sorts of skin problems as it clogs the pores during the night.

A good moisturizer helps soften your skin, and replaces the natural oils that are removed when cleansing. This barrier that is created by the moisturizer will help to lock in the moisture that is in your skin.

The last area in caring for your skin is to protect.  There is nothing more that will age your skin more than leaving it unprotected against the elements.  Sunlight is good for the skin, but too much of it can cause serious damage, so you should always wear sunscreen when going outdoors.  Many of the moisturizers that are worn during the day have SPF sun protection in them.  These are the products you should consider when going in and out of the sun during the day for protection.  Even driving in the car can cause sun damage, so these moisturizers are particular good to use.

Protect your lips with balms to stop them from drying out and becoming chapped.  Wear sunglasses and eye creams to protect the delicate skin around your eyes.

Taking care of your skin should be a high priority in your life.  Your skin is precious so treat it like so.
