Today I want to share with you a skincare routine that is simple yet extremely effective. With just four products and three steps both in the morning and at night, you can achieve skin that feels incredibly supple, hydrated, and radiant. And the star ingredient that will transform your skin is retinol.
Retinol is one of those actives we call "skin transformers." Why? Because it is the only cosmetic component capable of reaching our cells and completely changing our skin. If you have oily skin, it will turn it normal. If you have dry skin, it will make it more hydrated. The benefits of retinol are truly amazing, and I will explain them to you later.
Morning Routine:
1- After your cleansing routine, start by applying the necessary antioxidant, which in this case is vitamin C.
2- Next, apply your eye contour cream.
3- As the final step in the morning, apply your regenerating cream.
Night Routine:
The night routine is a bit different and more complete:
1- Start with a double cleanse to ensure your skin is completely clean.
Here is the important part: wait 30 minutes before applying the eye contour cream and the retinol. This waiting time is essential. Why? Remember that you are applying a very potent acid, and it needs to be applied to skin that is completely dry, not just on the surface, but internally as well. You could apply the eye contour cream right after the double cleanse, but it is recommended to do so right before applying the retinol to protect the eye contour area from this acid, which is as wonderful as it is potent.
2- Apply your eye contour cream.
3- Next, apply the retinol only to your face, never to the neck, eye contour, or décolleté.
4- After 5 minutes, apply your regenerating cream to deeply hydrate your skin and protect your barrier function.
Retinol, along with these simple but essential steps, can work wonders for your skin. It will transform it, providing radiance and improving its texture. If you want to know more details about the benefits of retinol, I invite you to watch the video.
So, if you are looking for a skincare routine that really works, try this one! You will be surprised by the results you will achieve. Your skin will thank you for it.
