New Delhi: Your skin is the largest organ of the body and also a very important one. It shields the body from all sorts of pollutants and other toxins that are present in the environment. Therefore, it is important that you take good care of your skin and protect it from all of these external factors.

You might come across various sources of information that might show you how to take care of your skin and prevent any sort of infections or skin conditions. Also, nowadays, DIYs are extremely popular and you could use some of them that are useful for your skin and might target your skin concerns. Here are some tips that will help you take care of your skin.

Always keep your skin moisturised. Make sure that you use a moisturiser that is made specifically for your skin type. If you have oily skin, use a light-weight moisturiser so that it doesn’t add to your oil build-up or if you have dry skin, use a moisturiser that can keep your skin moisturised and hydrated for long.
Make sure to wash your face before you go to bed. For the entire day, your face is exposed to pollutants and toxins and therefore, it is important that you moisturise your face before you sleep. If you don’t do that, it might clog your pores and when your pores are clogged, it might give rise to pimples and acne.
Use products that are made for your skin type. Before you buy any skincare product, make sure that it is made for your skin type. If you use products that are made for other skin types, it might make your skin dry or oily or cause some other problems, something that you don’t want.

How to build a skincare routine?

One thing that is extremely important is you should always start slow. Don’t jump into buying all products that you get. Don’t start with an elaborate skincare routine. Follow the basic steps of skincare and you will start to see a difference. Once your skin gets accustomed to it, then you can start to add other products that target a specific skin concern.

Here’s a basic skincare routine that you can follow:

Cleansing: The first thing you should do is clean your face. Don’t use any sort of product on your face without cleansing it.
Serums: The next is applying a serum that you would like. During the day, you might use Vitamin C and during the night you could use retinol.
Moisturiser: Another important step is that you should use a moisturiser. This helps to lock in the goodness of your serums and also keeps the skin moisturised and hydrated.
Sunscreen: No matter what you are doing, skipping sunscreen is not an option. Always use a sunscreen even if you are at home as it helps to protect the skin from the harmful rays of the sun which might cause skin diseases and cancer.
