Morning
Basic morning procedures before makeup: cleansing, moisturizing and sun protection.
Gentle cleansing
In the morning, cleansing should be as gentle as possible. We choose gels, milks, light foams for sensitive or dry skin, which are best purchased at the pharmacy. Those who don’t have time to do anything in the morning can wipe their face with micellar water and wash with cool water.
Did you know that after cleansing there should be no “creaking” on your face, since this is the first step towards dehydrated and dry skin?
Moisturizing with a special cream
We select moisturizing milk, cream or gel in accordance with your skin type. For dry and dehydrated skin, it is recommended to apply a highly concentrated serum or organic oil before using the cream. It is important that moisturizing cosmetics contain water-retaining components, such as glycerin or hyaluronic acid, and “locking” elements - oils or silicones.
Did you know that you can use oils from the pharmacy, such as apricot, almond or sesame, to moisturize the skin of your eyelids? Cosmetologists advise rubbing it in with light massage movements.
Sun protection cream with UV filters
Many will wonder why use Sunscreen in winter, spring and autumn? The answer is very simple: the sun affects our skin all year round. Without proper protection, a number of problems appear - from acne to wrinkles. Don't forget to apply a protective filter not only to your face, but also to your neck.
Did you know that you can immediately buy a moisturizer with an SPF of at least 30? The protection will work exactly the same, and you will be able to save on care products.

Day
Basic daily procedures: moisturizing, renewing sun protection, mattifying the skin if necessary.
Hydration with thermal water
Everyday makeup does not allow you to somehow additionally moisturize the skin during the day: almost any skincare cosmetics will “eat up” the entire makeup. The exception is thermal water. It can be safely applied over makeup. This product is also a salvation for those who are constantly in rooms with air conditioning or heating devices.
Did you know that you can also use hydrogel toning and moisturizing patches for the area around the eyes during the day? It is best to choose patches with collagen, hyaluronic acid or snail mucin.

Sun protection with thermal water with SPF
Thermal water with SPF is a comfortable way to renew your sun protection throughout the day. If you can’t find one, you can use creamy Sanskrin. To do this, apply it to your palms and spread it over your face with patting movements.
Did you know that cosmetologists advise renewing your sunscreen approximately every 4-5 hours?
Mattifying the skin with special wipes
During the day, those with oily or combination skin will benefit from mattifying products. We remove unpleasant oily shine with special matting wipes: they will successfully cope with their task and will not damage the makeup.
Did you know that mattifying wipes not only remove oily shine and dry out the skin, but also have antibacterial properties?
Summer skin care
The long-awaited summer is coming soon, bringing with it warmth and sunny, hot weather. We are happy that we will finally go on a vacation that we have been looking forward to for a very long time. But our summer mood can be overshadowed by such a fact as the not very good condition of the skin on our face. With the advent of the sun and heat, some representatives of the fair sex have problems with excessive oily facial skin, while others, on the contrary, have problems with excessive dryness and a feeling of tightness.
Summer skin care
This kind of problem can occur with every seasonal change in weather, and facial care is especially important in the summer, since during this period there are many negative factors that affect its condition (increased air temperature, sea water, ultraviolet rays, etc.) For each Women have their own type of facial skin, therefore facial care should be differentiated depending on what type of facial skin a particular woman has. Some universal tips for caring for your skin in summer:
1. Throughout the summer you should not do procedures such as bleaching and peeling. Any interference with the skin in summer can lead to the risk of sunburn.
2. A mandatory condition in the summer is to apply sunscreen to the skin of the face, especially for those who have light skin and are prone to pigmentation.
3. You constantly need to moisturize your facial skin with moisturizers and creams that do not clog the pores. Oily facial skin also needs hydration.
4. Toners containing alcohol should be completely excluded from use in the summer, as the skin can become very dry.
The best option is to use thermal water for the face, which you need to constantly spray.
5. To maintain the required amount of moisture in the skin as well as the necessary microelements, you need to train yourself to drink about eight glasses of mineral water, but without gases.
6. To improve the condition of the skin, you need to regularly drink herbal tea in the morning or, if you are allergic to some herbs, then you can simply drink warm water with a spoonful of honey dissolved in it, which also has a beneficial effect on the skin.
7. The diet must include foods rich in vitamins A, C, E, since these vitamins are natural antioxidants that prevent our skin from aging.
8. You should definitely give up such a bad habit as smoking. Both active and passive smoking are harmful to the skin, as it leads to rapid aging of the skin, as well as the appearance of wrinkles.
9. Drinking alcoholic beverages more than 3 times a week in large quantities has a negative effect on the skin, excessively drying it out. So you should drink alcohol in moderation, or better yet, avoid it altogether.
10. Do not take a bath in very hot water for a long time, so as not to dry out the skin. Use cleansers with a neutral pH level. Proper skin care in summer is the key to the health and beautiful appearance of your skin during this period of time.
Caring for dry facial skin includes constant cleansing of the facial skin, since due to increased work of the sebaceous glands, the pores become clogged much faster and require constant cleansing. It should be done twice a day: in the morning and before bed. You need to wash your face with soft foams and mousses, as well as milk. Dry skin needs constant nutrition and hydration.
Care for combination skin is also individual. since combination skin is a combination of oily areas of the T-zone and individual dry areas on the face. In this case, you need to constantly moisturize the T-zone (for example, with cucumber masks), and also use frozen juices and decoctions to wipe your face.
Caring for problematic facial skin includes the following features: mandatory use of sunscreens, regular cleansing of the skin with a decoction of herbs, moisturizing creams, and if possible, you should not use decorative cosmetics, which clog enlarged pores and can cause inflammation, and you can also use masks -films to get rid of blackheads.
Love your skin, take care of it in every season in your own way and it will delight you with its beauty and radiance.
Evening
Basic evening procedures: cleansing, moisturizing and nourishing.
Deep cleansing
In the evening, you need to cleanse your skin more thoroughly than in the morning. Not everyone knows how to remove makeup correctly. No soap! The best allies in makeup removal are hydrophilic oil, micellar water or soft lotions. After removing makeup, rinse your face with cool water and use a deeper cleanser - foam or gel. It is better to avoid foaming products - they are too aggressive.
Did you know that once or twice a week you need to make cleansing masks (individually selected for your skin type) based on enzymes or clay?
Moisturizing and nourishing with night masks
First, we apply moisturizers - light cream, moisturizing serum or gel. Then - products with the “nutrition” function. A thick night cream, serum or overnight mask are great options to complete your treatment.
Did you know that a budget option for a night mask for any skin type is regular sour cream? Apply a small amount, wait until the sour cream dries, and then either wash it off after 15 minutes or leave it overnight - in the morning the skin is like a baby's.

Hydration and nutrition are not the same thing.
Inga Lovyagina Cosmetologist
The main difference is that moisturizing products contain more water, while nourishing products contain fatty components in addition to water. In other words, cosmetics labeled “nutrition” saturate the skin with moisture and active substances more deeply and deeply.
Dermis care depending on age
You need to take care of your skin from a young age, and this is a generally accepted fact. After all, as we have already said, even basic washing with water has a lot of benefits. But the older the dermis becomes, the more intensive the care should be. Moreover, skin aging begins relatively early, after 25 years. And it is from this period that we must do everything to maintain youth for as long as possible.
From 25 to 30 years
At this age, professional anti-aging products should still be avoided. But it is already necessary to do light peeling, protect yourself from exposure to sunlight, moisturize and nourish the skin. And don’t forget about your eyelids – they are the first to fade.
From 30 to 40 years old
After turning 30, it is very important to properly care for your facial skin. After all, it is during this period that you can first notice the first wrinkles, age spots, irregularities and a “floating” oval. The appearance of morning edema is also possible. To prevent (or delay) all this, follow these recommendations.
Interesting! Refreshing face masks
- Do not drink a lot of liquid at night, otherwise the “bags” under your eyes will definitely be your faithful companions in the morning.
- Start visiting a cosmetologist regularly. At least once a month - one and a half. He will objectively assess the condition of your skin and provide it with the necessary help.
- Don't neglect professional salon treatments. At least twice a year, do lymphatic drainage massage for 5-7 sessions to improve blood circulation and metabolism in the cells of the epidermis. And in between, you can do facial gymnastics yourself. Simple exercises will help you keep your skin toned.
- Starting from 33-35 years old, use creams that stimulate the production of your own collagen. Do not neglect cosmetics that contain beauty vitamins A and E, as well as other substances beneficial for the beauty of the skin.
- Make anti-aging masks regularly, at least twice a week. And don't be afraid to alternate recipes to give your skin a comprehensive approach.
From 40 to 50 years old
Unfortunately, after 40 years the body begins to age rapidly. Therefore, your goal is to do everything so that this process does not affect the skin for as long as possible. And you should start by purchasing special creams, serums and tonics marked with the number 40+. This will be the first step to preserving the youth of the dermis.
During this period, when caring for yourself, it is recommended to pay special attention to the nasolabial folds and the skin of the eyelids. After all, these areas lose moisture most actively, which is why creases form. Therefore, they need to be moisturized regularly.
You need to maintain the oval of your face with special gymnastics and tightening masks. Also, do not forget about the neck and décolleté area so as not to create a contrast.
