Daily care for Combination skin...



Hi friends, i have written about daily care of dry skin and oily skin till now, so now what?

I have got a lot of mails of yours in which you have asked me to write about combination skin.Friends i have already told you about this skin,the care of a combination skin does present a problem, as it seem to have the worst features of both dry and oily skin.The effort should be towards striking a balance, to reduce the oiliness of greasy parts and lubricate the dry areas. If you have this skin you should use two skin care routines and treat the different areas as two individual skins.This may sound very difficult but once you understand the characteristics and choose the right cosmetics, the daily routine should be quite easy.

So now discuss about daily care of your skin. Cleansing comes first.Wipe the dry area with re hydrant gel, use moist cotton wool. Apply the medicated soap on the oily areas and rinse off water.Rub a mixture of beauty grains and skin tonic on area that are prone to blackheads. Wash off. Tone the entire face with skin tonic , using a cotton wool pad. Pat the skin gently.

This cleansing routine should be followed in the morning and before bedtime.

About the night care, it should be include a light massage with a nourishing cream on the dry areas. Choose a product that is not too oily. Cleanse and massage your neck too. Wipe off all the cream with moist cotton wool after twenty minutes. Apply an almond under eye cream around the eyes and wipe off with cotton wool after ten minutes. If you have any spot or pimple on the oily area, apply an anti pimple lotion and leave it on. If you have scars left by acne, rub an anti blemish ointment it into the scars and leave it on all night.

A few cosmetic-aids, common to both types, are also required. a good sunscreen would  protect the skin from dehydration, and moisturizer. A skin tonic helps you to tone and refresh the skin.

The skin care without a face mask is incomplete.

Choose one according to the need.

If you have acne or pimples, you should choose a medicated mask, it will be the best for you.
