The three key steps for a natural beauty routine: Cleansing, washing, and moisturizing.
The routine, so reviled and avoided for being synonymous with boredom, acquires the status of essential when we talk about beauty. The fact is that acquiring good daily habits and being consistent in our care are fundamental tasks when it comes to achieving visibly luminous and radiant skin.
In my case, for example, I like to deep-clean my skin daily. I always do it with natural products because our skin absorbs everything we apply to it, which is why it is important to nourish it with the best ingredients, just as we do with our diet every day. I have always worn very little makeup, and even less since we have been required to wear masks, but even so, I do a deep clean daily and always in the afternoon/evening.
For my skin, the three important steps to follow are: a nourishing soap, a good toner, and a natural moisturizer.
The three steps that work.
Step 1.
Clean the skin well.
I start by soaking a cotton pad or wipe in chamomile infusion or rice maceration, to which I add a few drops of almond, olive, or jojoba oil. I clean my face well of impurities, massaging while I clean and delighting in the aroma of the chamomile.
Rosehip soap and Chamomile.
Step 2.
Wash the face with natural soap.
Next, I wash my face with our rosehip soap. It is a highly recommended soap for facial skin as it contains wheat germ, jojoba oil, extra virgin olive oil, and my precious cocoa butter, highly nourishing ingredients that leave the skin smooth and soft. For example, olive oil is one of the best natural moisturizers for the skin and has a very high level of tocopherols, which are very beneficial for our skin. I dedicate a few minutes to washing with soap, gently massaging the skin with my fingers in circular motions. I spread the soap all over my face, paying special attention to the “T-zone.” Once the entire face is clean, I rinse off the soap with plenty of fresh water. I always take special care that the soap does not get into my eyes.
Rosehip oil, almond oil, and olive oil are recommended to moisturize the skin well after a cleansing.
Step 3.
Moisturize the skin with essential oil.
As you already know, our soaps, in addition to cleaning, moisturize. But on many occasions, an extra dose of hydration is necessary; I like to do this with oil. I am a proponent of using natural oils specific to each skin type. In my case, since I have very dry skin, rosehip oil, jojoba oil, or sweet almond oil work very well for me. Any of them leaves my skin well-nourished. I always buy my oils from my trusted herbalist.
