A facial skincare routine is essential for enhancing your skin’s natural radiance and strengthening its protective role, day after day. However, it can sometimes be difficult to know where to start, or to choose the products to use.

So let’s review, step by step, each of the essential steps to take, every day, to take care of your face.

While there is no universal miracle recipe for all skin types, the foundations of a facial routine always remain the same: cleansing, hydration, protection… Let us guide you and show you that simplicity is the key word in your beauty routine. 🙂

FACIAL CARE ROUTINE STEP 1: CLEANSE YOUR SKIN, MORNING AND EVENING

The first step in a facial skincare routine is to cleanse your skin, morning and night, without exception. The goal:

– To free the skin of any particles that can clog pores and promote the appearance of imperfections.

– To prepare the skin to get the most out of the treatments that follow.

So, when you wake up, this step helps eliminate sebum, perspiration, and dead skin cells that accumulated overnight. Before bed, it will ensure you do the same, while also getting rid of all traces of makeup, impurities, and pollution.

Always approach this moment with great care, especially by choosing cleansers that respect your skin’s balance, whatever your needs.

At Erborian, we recommend Korean Double Cleansing , a method that combines the richness of oil and the purity of water to respect all skin types and provide deep cleansing.

FACIAL CARE ROUTINE STEP 2: EXFOLIATE, ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK

In addition to facial cleansing, exfoliation can be performed once or twice a week (depending on your skin type), just after daily cleansing.

There are different exfoliation techniques : whether performed mechanically (scrub) or chemically (peeling or enzymatic exfoliation), exfoliation focuses in particular on the elimination of dead skin cells. This allows for even deeper cleansing and smoothing of the skin’s texture to reveal a brighter complexion and a face that appears refreshed and younger.

FACIAL CARE ROUTINE STEP 3: MOISTURIZE DAILY

After cleansing (and exfoliating), it’s time to moisturize and nourish: a crucial step in your facial skincare routine. It helps prevent dryness and strengthens the skin barrier. It’s therefore important to use skincare products that aim to maintain or boost the skin’s moisture content while providing all the active ingredients it needs to help regenerate and protect itself from environmental damage.

– In the evening, after or instead of your serum, you can use a night oil. Be careful to choose a non-comedogenic treatment with a light finish, especially if you have acne-prone skin . Discover Skin Therapy Oil-Serum , a multi-perfecting serum with a rich texture, ultra-concentrated in 17 super-ingredients and recognized expert active ingredients, specially designed for all skin types.

– To maintain hydration and enhance the effects of the serum (or oil), your day or night cream (more or less rich depending on your needs) will be the final touch to your facial skincare routine. It helps maintain hydration levels over time.

And don’t forget to pamper the delicate skin around your eyes, too, with targeted treatments tailored to this fragile area. All our tips for caring for the eye area are here.
