How to be like Jang Wonyoung

As many of you requested, part 2 of my it girls series is all about Jang Wonyeong, who's not only absolutely STUNNING, but also incredibly talented, hardworking, and of course successful. Let's get right into it!! <33

Wonyoungs Energy:

Wonyoung is incredibly charismatic, which makes her stand out without even trying!!

She has a bubbly and likeable Personality, Wonyoung appears happy and welcoming, she easily lights up a room with just her presence.

Aside from being cute and cheerful, Wonyoung is also known for being extremely hardworking!!

Confident and Unbothered. Despite receiving quite a bit of unnecessary hate, Wonyoung stays indifferent and true to herself!!

Elegant and feminine. No one does the ‘Elegant feminine self-love girly’ aesthetic like her, she is THE girly girl!! <3

Mindset:

Learn to deal with jealousy, Wonyoung gets plenty of hate, but let's be real for a second… we all know that is because of jealousy. Pretty, successful, smart, and popular? Of course, people will be jealous!!

“While practising self-love, you see good and pretty things about yourself. If I focus only on those things, I don't need to pay much attention to the criticism.”

Don't compare yourself to others “You are you, I am me”.

Keep to yourself. Stop telling people your ideas, your dreams and how you plan to archive them, your goals etc. Let your actions speak for themself!! <3

No more negative self-talk!!

Be your number 1 priority!! Take care of yourself, do what's good for you, eat well, care for your body, skincare, haircare, and your education!! PRIORITIES

Skincare

Skincare. Wonyoung has Flawless skin, finding a skincare routine that works for you can help you archive similar results!!

Wonyoungs skincare routine:

According to Google, Wonyoung only uses Innisfree products and starts by double cleansing her face, for that, she uses the Green Tea Cleansing Oil ($24), and the Green Tea Amino Acid Face Cleanser ($12)

To get the dewy class skin effect, hydration is key!! In the morning, Wonyoung likes using the Green Tea Hyaluronic Acid Serum ($30) and the Dewy Glow Tone-up Cream ($26)

Of course, you can't forget SPF. Wonyoung uses the Mild Cica Sunscreen Tone-Up SPF 50+ PA ++++, which is also great for acne-prone and sensitive skin types!! :)

For her night routine, she likes the Retinol Cica Moisture Recovery Serum ($37) and the Dewy Glow Jelly Cream ($26).

Elevate your daily life:

Healthy diet. Eating nutritious and healthy food is the first and most important step to clear skin and an overall good feeling!! Make sure to eat enough protein (ex. yoghurt, chicken, tofu or eggs), lots of fruits and veggies, and healthy fats (ex. Avocados, fish, nuts, olive oil)!!

Exercise daily. Besides dancing, Wonyoung loves pilates!! You can find lots of great Pilates videos on YouTube!!

Work on your posture!! Having good posture will not only make you feel better but also lets you appear more confident, elegant and put together. Try daily stretching and exercises to improve it <3

Try establishing a proper morning and night routine, this can help you stay structured and relaxed even on more messy and busy days.

Content that makes you feel better!! Start watching channels like thewizardliz, vogue beauty secrets, and read motivating blogs. (like mine lol <3)

Makeup:

Wonyoung is known for her iconic glittery and feminine make-up!!

Light pink blush, plump lips, glowy skin and a glittery but not too heavy eye look.

Foundation on the centre of your face and blend outwards for a naturally contoured look.

Always apply your matt products before your shimmers, that way, your makeup looks cleaner!! Also, apply your glitters from finest to chunkiest. :)

Don't apply your shimmers/glitters past the middle of your eyelid to avoid looking puffy.

If you have warm-toned skin, go for peachy glitters, for cool-toned skin, choose a champagne-coloured one.

If your struggle with dark under eyes, blend your concealer with your fingers!! This will give it a lot more coverage.

You can find lots of tutorials on Wonyoung-inspired make-up on YouTube, this one is my favourite.

I hope this little guide was helpful, I wasn't too familiar with Wonyoung, but I did some research since she was the number 1 most requested person for this!! :)

As always, please feel free to share your own suggestions in the comments and let me know who you want me to write about next! <3

🧾- hi pooks how are uuu I hope u finne

How to build a skincare routine ㅤ۪ㅤ۫ ꪆ୧ㅤ🧁ㅤ۫ ♡

Morning Routine: for All Skin Types

1. Cleanse: Start with a gentle cleanser that clears away overnight buildup without stripping your skin.

Oily skin? Use a gel-based cleanser.

Dry or sensitive skin? Opt for a hydrating cleanser.

1. CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser

Skin Type: Dry, normal, sensitive

2. CeraVe Foaming Cleanser

Skin Type: Oily, combination, acne-prone

3. La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Cleanser

Skin Type: All skin types, sensitive

2. Rice Water Boost: Here’s the secret that works for everyone. No toner ? After cleansing, apply rice water using a cotton pad or gently pat it onto your skin. It brightens, soothes, and balances your skin naturally. (Make rice water by soaking rice in water for 20 minutes, then straining and refrigerating it.)

3. Moisturize: Hydration is key! Choose a lightweight moisturizer for oily skin and a richer one for dry skin. Combination or sensitive skin? Stick to non-comedogenic and fragrance-free formulas.

For Dry Skin

1. Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream

Deeply hydrating with ceramides and urea.

2. Weleda Skin Food Original Ultra-Rich Cream

Nourishes very dry skin with botanical extracts.

For Oily Skin

1. Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel

Lightweight, oil-free, and hydrates without clogging pores.

2. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Mat Moisturizer

Controls shine and minimizes pores.

For Combination Skin

1. Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel

Balances oil and hydration levels.

2. First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream

Lightweight but hydrating for dry patches.

For Sensitive Skin

1. Avene Skin Recovery Cream

Calms irritation and strengthens the skin barrier.

2. Cetaphil Daily Hydrating Lotion

Gentle and non-irritating with hyaluronic acid.

For Acne-Prone Skin

1. La Roche-Posay Toleriane Double Repair Matte Moisturizer

Non-comedogenic and soothes irritated skin.

2. Vanicream Moisturizing Lotion

Free from common irritants and ideal for breakout-prone skin.

4. Sunscreen: Finish your routine with SPF 30 or higher, even if you’re staying indoors. Sunscreen protects your skin from UV damage and prevents premature aging—an absolute must for everyone!

Night Routine: Restore & Repair

1. Double Cleanse: If you wear sunscreen or makeup, start with micellar water or an oil-based cleanser, followed by your regular face wash.

2. Rice Water (Again!): Use rice water as a natural toner to calm your skin and prep it for the night. It’s a multitasking hero that helps reduce redness, minimize pores, and add a glow.

3. Targeted Treatments:

Acne-prone? Apply a salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide spot treatment.

Dull skin? Try a niacinamide serum for even tone and radiance.

Dry skin? Opt for a hyaluronic acid serum to lock in moisture.

4. Moisturize: Seal everything in with your favorite moisturizer. At night, you can go for a slightly heavier one to aid your skin’s repair process.

Weekly Extras for Radiance

Exfoliate: Once or twice a week, use a gentle chemical exfoliant (like AHAs or BHAs) to remove dead skin cells. DIY trick: Mix honey and sugar for a natural exfoliating scrub.

Face Masks: Hydrate with aloe vera . You can also use sheet masks chilled in the fridge for a refreshing treat.

Steam and Detox: Once a week, steam your face for a few minutes to open up pores and deep-clean. Follow with a clay mask if you have oily skin or a soothing mask if your skin is sensitive.

Secret Skincare Habits for All Skin Types

2. Cold Spoon Hack: Struggling with puffy eyes? Chill a spoon and press it gently under your eyes for an instant de-puffing effect.

3. Jade Roller Magic: A jade roller or gua sha tool works for all skin types. Massage your face daily to improve circulation and reduce puffiness.

4. Silk Pillowcase: Sleep on silk pillowcases—they’re gentle on your skin, reduce friction, and keep your hair and face smooth.

5. Hydration Inside Out: Drink plenty of water and eat skin-friendly foods like avocados, nuts, and fruits. Your skin reflects what you put into your body!

and there is a LOT of skincare tips I will try to make other blogs Abt it soon. !!

And also for any teenagers thinking about implementing them into their skincare routine (or who already are): Serums are meant for adults, older adults. Serums are incredibly concentrated and can do serious damage to a child or teenager's skin which is much more sensitive than that of an adult. Even adults in their 20's and even 30's really shouldn't be using serums (though from what I've read, Vitamin C and hyaluronic acid serums seem to be generally accepted as being relatively safe for younger adults). You are not preventing anything by slathering on a retinol serum at 19. You are destroying your skin

You really want to look "youthful" in your 40's or older? Sunscreen and water. Literally just wear a sunscreen with SPF 30 - 50 on a daily basis and drink plenty of water

[nenelonomh]

skincare practices

skincare refers to the practice of maintaining and improving the health and appearance of your skin. this post is a guide on where to start!

having a routine (starting with simple practices)

cleanser: begin and end your day by washing your face with a gentle, sulphate-free cleanser. even if your skin feels clean, this step removes any impurities.

moisturizer: apply a fragrance-free moisturizer twice a day. hydration is crucial for maintaining a healthy skin barrier.

sunscreen: protect your skin from uv damage by using a mineral- or chemical-based sunscreen with at least spf 30. apply it in the morning.

skin types

there are 5 primary skin types, each with unique characteristics and needs.

normal skin is balanced and not too oily or dry. it's like the goldilocks of skin types! maintain it with a gentle routine. if your skin is generally normal, opt for a lotion. as you age, consider switching to a cream-based moisturizer for added hydration.

dry skin lacks hydration, feels tight, and may have flakiness. opt for richer moisturizers with ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramides. for dry skin, skip lotions and go for creams or ointments. these provide more moisture and help preserve water in the skin.

oily skin produces excess oil, especially in the t-zone (forehead, nose, and chin). use lightweight, oil-free products and consider salicylic acid for acne-prone areas. if you’re prone to oiliness, choose a light gel-based moisturizer to avoid clogging pores.

combination skin is a mix of oily and dry areas. focus on balancing - light moisturizers for oily zones and richer ones for dry areas. treat your face as two zones. moisturize the dry areas and skip the oily ones. remember to look for spf 30 or higher for sun protection!

sensitive skin is prone to redness, irritation, and reaction. choose fragrance-free, hypoallergenic products and patch-test any new products.

common skincare mistakes

skipping sunscreen. sunscreen is non-negotiable! protect your skin from uv damage by using spf 30 or higher daily. if you live in a sunny environment, make sure to reapply before you go outside!

not cleansing before bed: properly cleanse your face before sleeping. it removes dirt, makeup, excess oil, and pollution remnants, preventing breakouts and maintaining healthy skin.

sleeping with makeup on. gross! no! remove your makeup before you go to bed to prevent clogged pores and skin irritation.

using too many products. overloading with products can overwhelm your skin, so learn how to simplify your routine. additionally, using products that are not right for your skin may have negative effects - creating more issues instead of solving them.

overusing acne products. be gentle with acne treatments. overuse can lead to dryness and irritation.

using harsh products. avoid aggressive ingredients that strip your skin. opt for gentle formulations.

remember - healthy skin starts with mindful habits.

Reveal Your Bollywood Glow: Unveiling Celebrity-Inspired Skincare Secrets.

This blog is going to be all about Indian & bollywood inspired products and skincare tips. If you also want a blog separately about Indian natural and authentic skincare or hair care I'll surely make it. 🫶

Know Your Skin Type : Identify your skin type - whether it's oily, dry, combination, or sensitive - to tailor your skincare routine effectively.

Cleanse Like a Star : Use a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil or Neutrogena to remove dirt and makeup and a oil cleaner is a must if you wear makeup daily. Opt for micellar water for a quick and effective cleanse on busy days. (But I don't really recommend it).

Exfoliate for Radiance : Incorporate a mild exfoliator like St. Ives Apricot Scrub or The Body Shop's Vitamin C Glow-Revealing Liquid Peel to slough off dead skin cells and reveal glowing skin. And my personal favorite coffee scrub from The Bombay shaving company. Don't exfoliate more than twice a week.

Hydration Is Key : Use a hydrating toner such as Clinique Moisture Surge Face Spray for an instant boost of hydration or toner + mist from pilgrim works like magic (my fav 😭).

Targeted Treatments : Include a serum with ingredients like hyaluronic acid (for hydration) or vitamin C (for hyperpigmentation) if you are under 17 or 18 like me don't use vitamin c or if you want to use in very less %, I use 2% kojic acid for my uneven skin tone from pilgrim, it's very begniner friendly. (Always consult a dermatologist for your skincare don't go around seeing videos on insta and YouTube believing them). I recommend Minimalist if you want chemical bases serums.

If you are above 23 or 25 Incorporate a retinol-based cream like RoC Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Night Cream for anti-aging benefits. (Got this tip from mumma for y'all 😭✨️)

Sun Protection Essentials : Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, such as La Roche-Posay Anthelios Ultra Light Fluid, to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. More affordable and effective sunscreens from brands — dot and key, aqualogica, Dr. Seth and wish care.

Overnight Nourishment: Use a hydrating overnight mask like Laneige Water Sleeping Mask to replenish moisture while you sleep. Incorporate a facial oil like The Ordinary's Rose Hip Seed Oil for added nourishment and radiance.

DIY Treatments Inspired by Bollywood:

- Try a turmeric, gram flour and yogurt face mask inspired by Priyanka Chopra for glowing skin.

- Use aloe vera gel like Deepika Padukone for its soothing and hydrating properties. (MY fav bolly actress btw 😭❤️)

Lifestyle Tips for Healthy Skin : Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day people are not stupid that they are going around telling you to drink water, IT'S A MUST!. Incorporate antioxidant-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, and green tea into your diet for overall skin health.

Some of my fav brands (mostly available in india) : dot and key, Foxtale, pilgrim, minimalist, st. Botanica, organic harvest and aqualogica!

Fav brand released by a bollywood actress: Hyphen by Kriti Sanon, their lip balm can even beat Rhode's lip balm istg- and their sunscreen 🔛🔝.

Channel your inner Bollywood diva and achieve a radiant, flawless skin with these skincare tips and product recommendations. Let your skin glow like a star!

[theambitiouswoman]

do you have any tips on hormonal pimples? or like teen pimples (idk what they r called) because i have so much of them but none of these toners and serums are helping.

Make sure to wash your face twice daily with a gentle cleanser. Avoid scrubbing your skin too hard, this can make acne worse.

Look for products that are labeled as "non-comedogenic," which means they won't clog your pores. This is especially important for makeup and moisturizers.

Products containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid may be helpful in treating acne. Start with a lower strength and gradually increase if needed.

Prescription strength retinoids can be very effective in treating acne, but they can be irritating to the skin. Talk to your doctor and start with a lower strength and use as directed.

Here are some product recommendations:

Cleansers:

CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser

Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash

Moisturizers:

Cetaphil Oil Control Moisturizer SPF 30

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Mat Mattifying Moisturizer

Salicylic Acid Products:

The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Solution

Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment

Benzoyl Peroxide Products:

Neutrogena Rapid Clear Stubborn Acne Spot Gel

Acne.org 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide Treatment

Non-Comedogenic Sunscreen:

Neutrogena Clear Face Liquid Lotion Sunscreen SPF 30

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46

Spot Treatments:

Mario Badescu Drying Lotion

Kate Somerville EradiKate Acne Treatment

The food you eat is super important for how your body's hormones work. Hormones are messengers that your body makes to control your growth, metabolism etc. They travel through your blood and tell different parts of your body what to do. Eating a good mix of healthy foods helps keep these hormones in check. Things like protein, good fats, fiber, vitamins, and minerals help make and control hormones. For example protein is needed for hormones like insulin and growth hormone, while healthy fats help with hormones like estrogen and testosterone.

Also, when you're stressed a lot, your body makes more of a hormone called cortisol, which can mess up other hormones. Moving your body through exercise can help with hormones by reducing stress and making you feel happy. Also, sleep is really important. Not getting enough sleep can mess up hormones that control hunger and fullness.

So, eating healthy foods, managing stress, staying active, and getting enough sleep are all really important. They help keep your hormones in balance and make sure your body works well.

Most importantly, don't let acne affect your self-esteem. You are beautiful just the way you are! Pimples are very normal and they do not take away from how amazing you are <3

[astrogirlythings]

My Skincare & Haircare routine:

I follow this for at least 3 times a week.

Problems I have : Clogged pores, Black & white heads. Partly dry & oily skin. Acne that turned to dark spots.

Wash your face with Salicylic acid based face wash.

Mon, Wed, Fri : Combine AHA BHA Gentle face peel with any clay based face mask. Let it on for 20 mins. Clean it off with an oil based face cleanser.

Tue, Thurs, Sat : Apply Retinol. It can be combined with your moisturizer.

Don't mix AHA BHA Peeling solution with Retinol serum. (Don't use both on the same day)

If you have scars on your skin. Don't use the AHA BHA Peeling solution. It might worsen those scars.

Other things I do daily:

Use water based sunscreen even when it's not sunny. Never skip your sunscreen.

Use any SPF-30 lipbalm. I love Seba Med lipbalm.

I don't apply any Hair oil (advised by my dermatologist. Because of my chronic dandruff & hairfall. Please consult your dermatologist before following this particular haircare routine). Instead I use some water based Tea tree hair serum for hair growth & volume.

Always moisturize even if your skin is naturally oily. At least use an oil free moisturizer if you feel like your skin is too oily.

If you have oily skin & acne use Salicylic Acid & Nicotinamide Gel / cream. (Only if you have acne)(over using this can dry your skin)

What & Why:

AHA BHA Peeling solution : Hyperpigmentation, unclog & shrink pores, blackheads & whiteheads.

Retinol : Anti ageing, Collegen production, Plumper skin and reduce fine lines.

Salicylic Acid & Nicotinamide Gel / cream : Acne, Black heads, White heads & Dark spots.

[femmefatalevibe]

Hello dear,

I'm an older woman who didn't have the chance to be guided when I was younger about selfcare, about beauty (makeup, clothes, accessories, etc.), the importance of looking my best, and about wanting to move forward professionally.

I've always admired the way women carried themselves in the 1940's (their clothes, their femininity) and I'm getting inspiration from that era for hair, makeup and clothes. This kind of information is pretty easy to find. My problem is I lack self-discipline when it's time to take care of myself, since I feel I was not taught properly, and I find it difficult to create a routine and sometimes even to get out of the house looking by best.

Could you please help me define a routine (morning and night) and new partterns, along with a mindset to achieve the self-representation of my dreams?

Hi love! So excited for you to start this self-care journey and prioritize yourself. I believe it's always the right time to start a routine that makes you feel better about yourself. Focus on the small things and begin habit-stacking. I have a goal-setting, productivity, and self-discipline guide linked HERE to get you started.

To become consistent with self-care habits, I think the most important mindset shift is to remember that no one else will ever put more effort into you than you will yourself – they're too busy with their own lives and everything that comes up. This change is for YOU, so you can feel better about your daily life. Why deprive yourself of this joy and self-pleasure when all you have to do is set aside a few minutes twice a day to better your life? Think of lacking consistency in your self-care routines as a form of self-sabotage (because it is, honestly).

When it comes to routines, you have to find what works for you, but the most important steps fit into 3 buckets: hygiene, nourishment, and improvement-focused indulgence (beauty, style, self-development reading, a yoga class, etc.).

Simple Morning & Nighttime Habits:

Brush teeth, floss, & skincare (2x/day)

Shower, brush hair, moisturize, and blowdry with heat protection cream and a round brush (1x/day)

Establish a daily makeup routine and a capsule wardrobe

Have at least 2 filling plant-based meals packed with whole foods, such as fruits, veggies, avocado, beans, whole grains, tahini, potatoes, etc. (following this regimen for 10 years has given me almost perfect skin with little to no external effort)

Drink plenty of water (your weight in pounds = target water consumption in ounces)

Wear sunscreen daily (at least 30-50 SPF)

Cut, file, and brush your nails (at least 1x/week)

Use a dermaplaning, sugar scrubs, and tweezing as needed to remove hair from your face and body (usually once every 2-4 weeks)

Here are some other resources to build a morning & night routine, some beauty tips, etc.

Step-by-Step Guide to a Complete Daily Skincare Routine for Glowing Skin

Achieving glowing, radiant skin is not just about using the right products but also about following a consistent daily skincare routine. Whether you’re new to skincare or looking to refine your routine, this guide will help you establish the perfect steps to get that luminous, healthy-looking skin you’ve always wanted.

Step 1: Cleanse Your Face (Morning and Night)

Cleansing is the foundation of any skincare routine. It removes dirt, excess oil, makeup, and impurities that accumulate on your skin throughout the day.

Morning: Use a gentle cleanser suited to your skin type. If you have oily skin, opt for a foaming or gel cleanser. Dry skin types may benefit from a hydrating cream cleanser.

Night: Double cleansing is recommended in the evening. Start with an oil-based cleanser to dissolve makeup and sunscreen, then follow up with your regular cleanser to ensure your skin is thoroughly clean.

Pro tip: Use lukewarm water to wash your face, as hot water can strip your skin of its natural oils, causing dryness and irritation.

Step 2: Apply a Toner

Toners help balance the skin’s pH level and remove any remaining traces of dirt or makeup. They also prep the skin for the next steps of your routine.

Choose the right toner: If you have oily or acne-prone skin, look for toners with salicylic acid or witch hazel. For dry or sensitive skin, opt for a hydrating toner with ingredients like rose water or glycerin.

How to apply: Use a cotton pad or your hands to gently pat the toner onto your skin.

Pro tip: Avoid toners with alcohol, as they can dry out your skin and cause irritation.

Step 3: Use a Serum

Serums are packed with active ingredients designed to target specific skin concerns. This is where you can tailor your skincare routine based on what your skin needs.

For glowing skin: Vitamin C serums are excellent for brightening and evening out skin tone. It’s also a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from environmental damage.

For hydration: If your skin feels dry or dull, a serum with hyaluronic acid can deeply hydrate and plump your skin.

Pro tip: Apply your serum while your skin is still slightly damp from toner to help lock in hydration.

Step 4: Apply Eye Cream

The skin around the eyes is delicate and prone to dryness, fine lines, and puffiness. Incorporating an eye cream into your routine helps to address these issues.

For dark circles and puffiness: Look for eye creams with caffeine or peptides.

For fine lines and hydration: Hyaluronic acid or retinol-based eye creams are great for minimizing fine lines and keeping the under-eye area hydrated.

Pro tip: Use your ring finger to gently pat the eye cream around your eyes, as it exerts the least pressure.

Step 5: Moisturize

Moisturizing is crucial for keeping your skin hydrated and creating a protective barrier. A good moisturizer will seal in all the products you’ve applied in the previous steps.

For oily skin: Choose a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer, such as a gel or water-based product.

For dry skin: A richer, cream-based moisturizer will provide the necessary hydration.

Pro tip: Don’t skip moisturizing, even if you have oily skin. Proper hydration helps to regulate your skin’s oil production and prevent breakouts.

Step 6: Sunscreen (Morning Only)

Sunscreen is the most important step in your morning routine. Daily sun protection prevents premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and skin cancer.

Broad-spectrum SPF: Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to protect against both UVA and UVB rays.

How to apply: Use about a nickel-sized amount and apply it evenly across your face and neck. Reapply every two hours if you’re outdoors.

Pro tip: If you’re using makeup, look for a moisturizer or foundation with built-in SPF for added protection.

Step 7: Exfoliate (1-2 Times a Week)

Exfoliation is essential for removing dead skin cells that can make your skin look dull and clog your pores. However, over-exfoliating can irritate your skin, so limit this step to once or twice a week.

For physical exfoliation: Use a gentle scrub with fine particles to buff away dead skin cells.

For chemical exfoliation: A chemical exfoliant containing AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) or BHA (beta hydroxy acid) can effectively slough off dead skin without being abrasive.

Pro tip: Always follow exfoliation with a good moisturizer, as exfoliation can leave your skin feeling dry or tight.

Step 8: Face Mask (1-2 Times a Week)

A face mask is a great addition to your skincare routine, especially when your skin needs an extra boost. Face masks can target various skin concerns, from hydration to deep cleansing.

For glowing skin: Look for masks with ingredients like Vitamin C, turmeric, or honey that brighten the complexion.

For hydration: A mask with hyaluronic acid or aloe vera can soothe and replenish dry skin.

Pro tip: Apply your face mask after cleansing and before moisturizing to get the most benefit from the ingredients.

Additional Tips for Glowing Skin:

Stay hydrated: Drinking plenty of water is key to keeping your skin hydrated from the inside out. Aim for at least 8 glasses of water a day.

Eat a balanced diet: Incorporating foods rich in antioxidants, such as berries, leafy greens, and nuts, can help promote healthy, glowing skin.

Get enough sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night to allow your skin to repair and rejuvenate. Lack of sleep can lead to dull, tired-looking skin.

Don’t skip SPF: Sun damage is one of the leading causes of premature aging. Wearing sunscreen daily is crucial for maintaining youthful, glowing skin.

Consistency is key: Stick to your skincare routine every day, and be patient. It can take a few weeks to see noticeable improvements, but consistency will pay off.

hi angels! as you probably saw from the title, this post has a collection of tips on how to get a clear skin. 𐙚 ₊˚⊹ 🎀

before starting i want to remind, that everyone has a unique skin, and some of these might not work for you. 🫶🏻

if you feel like it, i recommend talking with a professional about your possible skin problems. they will definitely know better than me! ଘ(੭ˊᵕˋ)੭

(continue reading under the cut!)

♡︎ do not touch your face if you don’t need to!

♡︎ double cleanse in the evening. use oil based and water based cleansers. (do not over cleanse, though! if you want to, you can cleanse your face in the morning too, but use only one cleanser, based on your skin type. and don’t cleanse your face more than twice a day!)

♡︎ create a simple skincare routine, don’t add unnecessary steps!

♡︎ the earliest recommended age for using retinol is early twenties 

♡︎ wash your face max two times a day (if you have dry skin, you can try washing it only in the evening

♡︎ don’t pop pimples. if you want to, you can try using pimple patches.

♡︎ use sunscreen every morning, even in the winter! if it’s gloomy, you can use spf 30 instead of 50. (on sunny days, remember to reapply after few hours)

♡︎ if a product gives you a burning feeling, remove it immediately. any products are not meant to feel burning.

♡︎ don’t use homemade face masks, if you are not fully aware of the ingredients and their effects. while some ingredients work for others, they might not work for you.

♡︎ if you have acne or oily skin, try exfoliating your face! recommended amount is 1-3 times a week.

♡︎ drink enough water! around eight glasses is the recommended amount, but it’s different for anyone. i recommend checking this with your doctor!

♡︎ always read the back of the product before using it. all the ingredients are listed there, and if you see some that don’t work with your skin, don’t use it. there are usually instructions on how to use it, for example if you can use it daily or weekly or something like that. if something in the instructions doesn’t match with my advice, listen to the product. these tips are not specified for some specific products, but overall for everything, and there are always some exceptions.

hope this helps! and of course feel free to share your own tips in the comments ‧₊˚. ࿐

8 Skincare Hacks a Dermatologist Recommended for Winter Radiance

As the winter chill sets in, our skin often undergoes various challenges that can leave it feeling dry, dull, and irritated. To combat these seasonal skincare woes, I recently had the privilege of consulting a dermatologist who shared invaluable tips to keep skin healthy and radiant during the colder months. Here are eight expert-approved skincare hacks to incorporate into your winter routine.

Hydration is Key: One of the fundamental principles emphasized by the dermatologist was the importance of hydration. Cold weather, indoor heating, and hot showers can strip the skin of its natural moisture. Combat this by incorporating a rich, hydrating moisturizer into your daily routine. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid and glycerin to lock in moisture and keep your skin supple.

Gentle Cleansing: Avoid harsh cleansers that can further dry out your skin. Opt for a gentle, hydrating cleanser that effectively removes impurities without compromising your skin's natural barrier. Consider cleansing your face with lukewarm water to prevent excessive drying.

Humidify Your Space: Combat the dry indoor air caused by heaters by using a humidifier in your living space. This simple addition helps maintain optimal moisture levels in the air, preventing your skin from becoming overly dry.

Protective Layers: Don't skimp on sunscreen just because it's winter. Harmful UV rays are still present, and snow can reflect sunlight, intensifying its effects. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 and apply it to exposed areas, including your face, neck, and hands.

Exfoliate Wisely: Exfoliation is essential to slough off dead skin cells and encourage cell turnover, but too much can exacerbate winter dryness. Opt for a gentle exfoliant with ingredients like alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) once or twice a week to maintain a healthy glow.

Lip Care: Chapped lips are a common winter woe. Combat this by using a nourishing lip balm containing ingredients such as shea butter, beeswax, or coconut oil. Apply it regularly to keep your lips soft and hydrated.

Invest in a Night Cream: Nighttime is when the skin undergoes repair and regeneration. Enhance this process by using a richer night cream during the winter months. Look for formulations with ingredients like retinol, peptides, or ceramides to promote overnight rejuvenation.

Stay Hydrated from Within: Hydrating your skin goes beyond topical treatments. Ensure you're drinking an adequate amount of water throughout the day to maintain overall skin health. Herbal teas and water-rich fruits and vegetables can also contribute to your hydration levels.

As winter brings its unique challenges to skincare, implementing these dermatologist-approved hacks can help you achieve a radiant complexion despite the harsh weather conditions. Remember, a consistent and thoughtful skincare routine is the key to keeping your skin healthy and glowing throughout the winter months.
