When it comes to the amount of steps a skincare routine should have, there are many possible answers. It can be 4, 10, 15, you name it — it’s easy to see why people have different answers because skincare is such a personal thing that can be affected by various factors like your lifestyle, your skin type, and your habits.
But if there was such a thing as a universally-accepted skincare routine, it’s this: 3 steps comprised of cleansing, toning, and moisturizing. It’s basic yet efficient and effective on all skin types and can give anyone clear, glowing skin.
Keep reading to learn how this short-and-sweet regimen can give you miraculously glowing skin:
Cleanse gently
The first step of your routine is the most important as it sets the stage for how the rest of your products will work on your skin. Your facial cleanser should never strip your skin of its natural oils, only the dirt, makeup, bacteria, and germs because those can linger in your pores and lead to pimples.
A good gentle cleanser like SNAILWHITE Whipp Soap (P295) absorbs dirt and excess oil (the bad kind!) while brightening and hydrating your skin. It’s a bar cleanser that has a delicate net wrapped around it to create a luxurious foam that allows you to cleanse your skin without harshly rubbing or tugging on it!
Tone deeply
You’re probably wondering, should your toner exfoliate your skin or hydrate it? It should do both! That way, your pores will be cleared out of hard-to-reach gunk that could clog your skin and will still be prepped to efficiently absorb the last step of your routine.
SNAILWHITE Glow Potion AHA·BHA Toner (P395) is your new ride-or-die best friend! As a non-drying toner with potent ingredients, it can purify your skin with a mix of AHAs and BHAs and soothe, hydrate, and brighten with skin-caring extracts such as Hyaluronic Acid, Witch Hazel, and Niacinamide. Gently pat a few drops or swipe the product over your skin with a cotton pad to get fresh, plump, miraculously glowing skin!
Moisturize intensely
Now that your skin is clean, it’s ready to drink a large glass of water in the form of moisturizer. For utmost hydration, use a cream with a lightweight texture but full of powerful actives so it can hydrate and nourish your skin without leaving it feeling greasy and slick.
Case in point: our best-selling SNAILWHITE Moisture Facial Cream (P995)! It’s a cream-gel moisturizer that effortlessly melts into your skin to deliver the goodness of Snail Potion, Centella Asiatica, Hyaluronic Acid, and Niacinamide sans the heavy and oily feel! The result? Healthy, bright skin with a glass-like glow!
Like in life, when it comes to skincare there is no instant fix. In order to see a difference in your skin, be consistent with your regimen! By doing this 3-step routine twice a day every day, your skin will soon be able to reap in the benefits of each product and look clearer and more glowing.
