The first thing someone notices about you is your outer exterior otherwise known as your appearance. Your skin is the canvas of your body and who wants a messy canvas? Not you i hope. Cairo love has three simple steps of skin care routine to ensure you always shine through and through.
Step one: cleanse
Makeup and dirt clings to the surface of your face so it is important to wash away these impurities. Always use lukewarm water and work up a rich lather and use circular motions to cleanse your face. Don’t forget to do the same thing to your neck, .a lot of dirt from your face resurfaces on your neck as well!! Rinse with lukewarm water and follow up with cool water.
Step 2: tone
You can use rosewater (combination skin), azulene (for dry skin) or lactic acid toner (for oily skin) to tone your face. Toner’s restore the ph balance to your skin and close up the pores in your face. Witch Hazel is another natural toner that works wonders! Essentially it perks up your skin. A happy face is a happy you!
Step 3: moisturize
This step is essential to maintain a youthful skin appearance. Moisturize face and neck. If you apply moisture immediately after you have taken a bath or shower, the steam from the hot water will help in absorbing the moisture and softening of your skin.
An important aspect for overall skin care is to exercise! Without a healthy blood supply that is provided when you are active, your skin cannot be healthy (texture and quality).
Cairo Love moment: give your face a steam procedure! Run hot water in the sink or heat water in a pot on your stove, when the steam is at a comfortable level, place a towel over your head as u lean in the sink or over the pot to allow steam to enter your pores. You will begin to perspire, which will release impurities from your skin. After you are done steaming, splash cool water on your face to close your pores. Do this once a week. Leave your comments!
