Face care: are you washing your face properly at night? Here are the do’s and don’t’s!

Face care is first and foremost about knowing what kind of skin you have (e.g. I have sensitive, combination skin).

Here are the main types:

  • Normal skin: skin is not too shiny nor too dry, your skin tone is even, you don’t get red patches, and your pores are not very visible.
  • Oily skin: skin is shiny, pores are visibile, you get spots and black heads easily.
  • Dry skin: if you get flaky skin and very visible expression lines. Pores are not visibile.
  • Sensitive skin: your skin reddens easily, is irritated by elements and strong products.
  • Combination skin: you have a mix of the above.

Now let’s discover some useful tips for taking care of your face to get the perfect skin

What is the correct face care routine?

  • Use a gentle cleanser with cotton pads. E.g. Expert di Demak’ Up: the honeycomb ingredients is particularly effective at removing make up gently. Additionally, being 100% cotton, the pads are perfect for not harming the skin.
  • Wash skin with warm not hot water with a gentle cleanser (this way you open pores, but hot water dries out your skin) and dry with a soft, clean towel.
  • Apply a toner with a cotton pad and wait for it to dry. Toner is especially useful for people with oily skin.
  • Apply any necessary ointments if needed: e.g. acne creams
  • Apply eye cream or serum and wait for it to dry. Use this even if you are young, to prevent damage to the collagen.
  • Apply your normal moisturiser
  • If you’re going out, apply sun cream especially if your moisturiser doesn’t contain it. It seems silly, but any kind of sun exposure (even in clouds) can damage skin, and you will be grateful later in life!
  • Apply make up (remember primer!)
  • Use an exfoliating scrub twice a week. Avoid if you have very sensitive skin or go for a super delicate one.

Have you ever thought of these face care things?

  • Change your pillowcase once a week
  • Use clean towels every two days to dry your face (buy mini flannels, so you avoid doing thousands of rounds of laundry!)
  • Be careful: hair products with oil, silicon and creams can clog your pores if they get onto your face
  • Be careful also when spraying perfume – do it away from your face!
  • Wash your hands always before touching your face
  • Always wash your face well before and after exercise: sweating with make up on is one of the worst things for your skin!
  • If you use make up brushes, wash them regularly!

  1. Normalmente uso solo prodotti bio per quanto riguarda la cura del viso, corpo e capelli e trovo che siano i migliori!
    Attualmente uso l’olio di cocco puro bio per struccarmi la sera, poi acqua micellare bio di So’Bio etic, crema contorno occhi di Bottega Verde e crema da viso di Lavera bio.

  2. Giustissimo! Struccarsi la sera è il regalo più importante che possiamo fare al nostro viso. Ogni volta che si va a dormire truccate sono dieci anni di vecchiaia per la pelle! Se posso, aggiungo unaltro consiglio: trattare il collo come parte integrante del visto, quindi non dimenticare mai di applicare la crema idratante anche lì :)

  3. Brava Irene. Ti seguo da poco ma mi piaci tanto. Dai consogli molto utili e sei una persona simpatica e umile! E rispondi a tutte ai commenti, cosa che nessun personaggio pubblico fa… Continua così… ti auguro il meglio..
    Baciiii

  4. ciao irene! ti seguo molto e ti faccio i miei complimenti sinceri! volevo solo dirti che io sono una giovane farmacista (ormai 27enne) hahah e che se ti va, mi piacerebbe qualora fossi interessata, a darti dei consigli da pubblicare sul tuo blog qualora ne avessi bisogno! a presto! e buona settimana della moda milanese!
    un abbraccio
    giulia!

  5. “E tu ti lavi…”.
    Vi è un doppio soggetto “tu ti”.
    È sufficiente scrivere “E tu lavi…”.
    Scusate, ma è importante scrivere in italiano corretto.
