2. Pick the right toner for face cleansing

While you don’t need to, frequently using a toner can do wonders for you.

We recommend Billbergia’s ROSE Skin Toner for Natural Glow Enhancement. With rose water and basil components, it’ll help in general detoxification while tightening any open pores. The best way to apply it is to delicately massage the solution into your skin and then use a thin towel to dry everything later.

Start every day with aromatic Billbergia rose water skin toner and uplift the overall look of your skin.

5. Use an exfoliating face scrub at least once a week

Contrary to what most people believe, an exfoliating face scrub should never be used too often. These products are meant to remove accumulated dead skin and can be detrimental to your skin if you use them too much.

So, keep it restricted to once per week and ensure that you do it right before you apply a toner. While there are several excellent options, we recommend the Tajori Pulpy Papaya and Rose Face Scrub. 

Product Description : Enriched with the anti tanning properties of papaya and glow enhancing components of Rose this face scrub is a must have for tropical weather. Face scrubs are always a go to idea when you feel like prepping up your skin at home. This face scrub serves exactly what you have been craving for your skin. How to use :

Wet your face. Take coin sized scrub on your palm and spread it evenly on your face. Gently scrub all over your face. Emphasize on nose and sides, chin and forehead. This will help remove any possible blackheads in these places. Keep scrubbing for 7 10 minutes. Wash off your face with water and pat dry.

Product Ingredient : Papaya, Rose, Essential Oils. Shelf Life : 2 Years Country of Origin : India Brand Name : Tjori

 

Consisting of papaya and rose extracts, the Tajori has an anti-tanning effect and is perfect if you live somewhere tropical.

Do you need to do anything else?

A few practices aren’t necessary to include in your daily skin care regimen. However, relying on them occasionally can help to some degree.

Here are some things you can try:

1. A face massage tool can go a long way

Massaging your face from time to time will relax your muscles and improve overall facial health. Besides that, a face massage tool can remove some of your skin’s dullness and help with lymphatic drainage. That will enable you to get rid of any built-up skin toxins.

The Gua Sha Green Quartz Face Massaging Stone, made with copper and tin alloy, is a great choice here. It’ll boost blood circulation and aid in minimizing any wrinkles.

Product Description : Sculpt your face with this authentic Gua sha stone, which excels for face contouring and anti aging purposes. Gua sha relaxes and restores the facial imbalances. It has sculpting, soothing and softening effects on the skin.

How to use :

Benefits of using this product : Relieves Facial Tension : When your face got distressed with daily pollution, Gua sha came to the rescue to distress your muscle tension and facial tissues.

Shelf Life : 24 months

Country of Origin : India

Brand Name : Clensta

 

However, only use it after you’ve gone through all the previously mentioned steps.

2. Rely on a face mask for glowing skin 

Typically, you’d want to use a face mask before festive events or if you’re attending a party. While they don’t have any long-term effects, such products can make your skin appear fresh and glowing.

The Navah Back To Brighten – Blueberry Face Mask is best suited for this. It’s reasonably affordable and has clay and almond oil to help reduce acne and improve overall elasticity.

A simple tip to effectively use a face mask for glowing skin is to be generous with it. And funnily enough, a spatula will help you apply it evenly across your face.

Consistency is key!

Remember to stick to the steps in the order they are listed. In short, wash, use a toner, apply serum, moisturize and tie it all up with a consistent nightly skin care routine. It’s also essential that you exfoliate every week. That’ll help remove any residual dullness.

You’ll soon notice great results if you maintain some consistency with your skin care regimen. Now, go out there and get yourself ready for the upcoming celebrations.

Frequently asked questions:

1. What are the ideal steps to follow for your skin care regimen?

It would be best if you started with a thorough wash and followed it up with a toner. Then, apply a serum and wait for your face to absorb it before putting on some moisturizing cream. We recommend browsing through the offered Femica skin care products to choose the ones you prefer.

2. Do you need to maintain a daily skin care routine?

While it may be cumbersome, being consistent with your skin care will help you immensely. From preventing dullness and reducing acne to improving overall facial health, taking care of your face can have several benefits.

3. Should you use an exfoliating face scrub daily?

Exfoliating your face too frequently can erode healthy skin cells. It’s recommended to use these products once a week, preferably right before applying a toner. You can browse through our Femica skin care products to pick a natural ingredient-based face scrub instead of one with high chemical composition.
