  • Is Your Skin Care Regimen Right For Your Skin Type?

    10 Junio 2015



    While walking by the skincare aisle in a drugstore or department store, you’ll notice a variety of products created for different skin types. Generally these fall into one of the following categories: normal, oily, dry, combination or sensitive. It may sound obvious to say that these products are created and formulated specifically for those with certain skin problems, but you’d be surprised at home many women are using products for the wrong skin type.

    How do you find out which type of skin you have? 

    People with normal skin have very few imperfections, no severe sensitivity to products or the seasons, barely visible pores and a radiant complexion.

    People with oily skin have enlarged pores, a shiny, thick complexion and blackheads, pimples or other blemishes.

    People with dry skin have barely-noticeable pores, a dull and rough complexion, a few red patches, less elasticity and fine lines.

    People with combination skin can be dry or normal in some areas, but then really oily in others (usually the T-zone). Some characteristics of this include overly dilated pores, blackheads and shiny skin.

    People with sensitive skin often notice redness, itching, burning and dryness on their face.

     

    What regimen should I follow if my skin is…

    Normal? If you’re blessed with normal skin, stick to the basics of skincare: washing with a gentle cleanser, exfoliating to remove dead skin, and moisturizing daily.

    Oily? Oily skin can get worse based on the weather and stress, so try to stay happy and healthy to avoid those triggers. Be sure to wash your skin no more than twice a day (to prevent over-washing) with a gentle cleanser. Products labeled “noncomedogenic” work well for oily skin types, as they don’t clog pores.

    Dry? Dry skin types should take shorter showers to prevent drying out their skin. They need to focus on applying rich moisturizers immediately after showering to absorb into the skin. Ointments and creams have a thicker consistency that work better to penetrate dry skin.

    Combination? With combination skin, you’ll need to use different products on the different areas of your face. Follow the directions above for the oily and dry areas as needed.

    Sensitive-? If you have sensitive skin, you should use products without fragrance. Sticking to all-natural products helps as well, since they don’t contain the typical irritants like parabens. Exfoliate only once or twice a week since anything more can be too harsh on the skin.

  • How to Incorporate Shinso Skincare Into Your Skin Regimen

    16 Junio 2014



    When it comes to beauty and skincare products, many women are hesitant to try new products. They establish a set routine of products applied each morning and night and are afraid that adding a new product might change the results. But change can be good- even great- and actually help improve your skin. Certain types of products, such as toners, actually work better when used with other products in a daily routine. Here are a few easy ways to incorporate Shinso Skincare into your skin regimen.

    • Shinso Essence works to refine your skin’s texture and leave your face noticeably brighter and youthfully radiant. This product may be applied throughout the day and evening, on the face and neck as well as the entire body. The serum may be used either before or after your makeup routine, making it a super easy transition into your daily routine.
    • Shinso Mist can be applied throughout the day as well, but many people tend to use it to set makeup and skin before heading out. Keep a bottle somewhere close to the door- this way you will always remember to spray some on before you leave the house for that extra glow.
    • Keep your morning and night skincare products separate from one another so it’s easy to grab the products you need for each routine. Skincare products that require to be removed with water and often used during morning showers should be kept in the bathroom, while a moisturizer you can apply throughout the day might be well suited for your bedroom vanity or even in your purse. Keep Shinso Glow in your bathroom so you remember to exfoliate with it prior to applying makeup and other moisturizing products.
