Awéllé Body 'n' Mind

If you have been wondering what each of your skincare products actually do, check out this post.

Avoid over-moisturizing. ⁣
⁣
While skincare experts often talk about the importance of moisturizing, it’s essential not to take it too far.⁣
⁣
Over moisturizing can lead the skin to break out. Too much moisture can result in milia, the teeny white spots that appear when dead skin becomes trapped underneath. ⁣
⁣
So, think twice before you slather on a thick layer of your favourite moisturizer over and over again.

“Do I apply serum before or after moisturizer?” Good question. ⁣
⁣
Many people don't really know how to layer the many skincare products they have. That's why I decided to focus on this today.⁣
⁣
The order in which you apply skincare products is directly related to how your skin is going to absorb them. ⁣
⁣
To truly get the full benefits of your products, there is a rule of thumb: apply your skincare from thinnest to thickest. That means liquid products, like toners and serums, come first and oil-based, creamy, or whipped products are applied last.⁣

Invest in your skin. It's going to represent you for a very long time.

Great skin is not simply a matter of DNA — your daily habits, have a big impact on what you see in the mirror.

The goal of any skin-care routine is to tune up your complexion so it’s functioning at its best, and also troubleshoot or target any areas you want to work on.

So, how do you take care of your skin daily?
What is your skincare routine?

Makeup should complement your skin and not hide it.

Do you know your skin type? Because using skin care products targeted to your skin type can help keep your skin looking and feeling its best.

But it can be harder than you’d expect to identify your skin type, and many people get it wrong.

Your skin type can also change as you age. It’s common for skin to become drier with age as the skin’s natural moisturizing barrier breaks down.

So even if you’ve always had oily skin, you may find yourself with dryer areas as you get older. Climate, diet, and other changes can also affect your skin type.

Have a beautiful week ahead.

The skin’s colour is created by special cells called melanocytes, which produce the pigment melanin. Melanocytes are located in the epidermis.p regulate body temperature and permit the sensations of touch, heat, and cold.

The skin has three layers:

✔️ The epidermis: The outermost layer of skin, provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone.

✔️ The dermis: Beneath the epidermis, contains tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands.

✔️ The deeper subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis): This is made of fat and connective tissue.
