2. You can skip toners

In a skin care routine for acne, toner is a fundamental and crucial component. Toners are considered a means to remove extra oil from the skin after and maintain pH balance after washing, according to natural skincare tips.

Toners can visibly minimise pores and avoid breakouts. Hence, there is no way that you must skip this skincare step.

3. No moisturisers for oily skin

One of the most common myths that is doing the rounds is oily skin doesn’t require moisturising. It stems from the logic that the skin will get too oily and aggravate the acne, if any. However, when you stop applying moisturiser, the skin releases excessive oil due to dehydration.

Oily skin will produce more oil if you don’t moisturise.  Regular skin care creams will help keep the oil production in check and might eventually result in less oily skin.

Try out the Watermelon Superglow Moisturiser from Femica Skincare Products. They not only induce shine to your smooth skin but also keep them protected.

4. No Sunscreen for winters

We often skip our sunscreens when we have a stay at home job or when it’s a cloudy. It may seem that the sun rays cannot reach us. However, the damaging UV rays can hurt skin with or without clouds since they can penetrate clouds. Also, sunscreens can help prevent skin cancer.

Your face skin care needs a powerful sunscreen on your dressing table. Check out the fantastic GTG moisturiser cum sunscreen lotion for healthy and perfect skin.

5. Serums are for all

Serums with a blend of moisturiser is like sparkle to skin, especially if you have a dry skin texture. Applying a layer of moisturiser on top of the serum locks the nutrients within the pores. However, not all types of serums are meant for all skin types.

Some people may be hypersensitive to retinol or vitamin A as they can degrade or oxidize before absorption. In such cases, you must consult with your dermatologist. Further, everyone must do a patch test before applying serums as they contain active ingredients.

Moreover, always apply a moisturiser at the end of your skincare routine. These skin care steps are brilliant ideas if it’s chilly outside or if you have naturally dry skin. Femica Beauty Products boasts the Serum Better Brightening for its delicate composition, which suits all skin types and provides a lustrous glow.

You can use lip masks like the Lip masque daily for maximum hydration.

6. If it burns, it’s working

Skincare experts say that a little tingling sensation is normal when you are introducing a new skincare product. But, stinging or burning is clearly a sign of inflammation. If you feel a burning sensation after applying a product, you could have sensitive skin or be allergy-prone to one or multiple ingredients in the product.

If the sensation does not go away, consult a dermatologist immediately.
