3 Skincare Products Worth Adding to Your Routine in 2022
When was the last time you updated your skincare routine? Does it feel as though the products you use aren’t giving you much in terms of results? Has your skin type changed over the years or have you developed new/different concerns? These are all important questions to ask as your skin doesn’t stay the same throughout your life. You need to be willing to re-assess your current needs and address them accordingly. With that said, here’s a look at three skincare products that may be worth adding to your routine in 2022.
It’s Time to Switch Cleansers - Choose Something Effective, Yet Gentle
One of the best places to start when it comes to updating your skincare routine is choosing a new cleanser. Experts agree that any cleanser you choose needs to be effective at getting rid of dirt and grime so that it does not clog the pores – but it also needs to be gentle. Cleansers that are too harsh can end up stripping the skin, leaving it in worse condition than before. There are a few things to remember when shopping for a new cleanser. For example:
- Before you shop, you need to know your skin type
- Foaming and gel cleansers are best for combination and oily skin
- Thick creams and cleansing milk are best for normal to dry skin
- Read the ingredients - stay away from added chemicals and fragrance
Your new cleanser should leave your skin feeling and looking fresh and clean, yet hydrated and plump.
Rosehip Oil – an Unsung Hero Product
If you’re looking for a true unsung hero product, be sure to give rosehip oil a try. Often, skincare products address one or two issues, which means you end up having to use so many products in your daily routine. Rarely can a product address so many issues across such a large age range. That’s exactly what good-quality rosehip oil is capable of, however. Below are some of the common skincare concerns it can help with:
- Wrinkles
- Fine lines
- Stretch marks
- Scars
- Wound healing
- Skin elasticity
- Brightening and evening skin tone
- Inflammation
- Dullness
Because it is such a gentle oil, you also don’t have to worry about any side effects, sensitivities or an uncomfortable feeling to the skin. It can and should be used twice a day – morning and night.
Embrace Exfoliators - Choose the Right Type for Your Needs and Skin
Exfoliators are another fabulous product to add to your 2022 skincare routine. These work to get rid of dry, flaky, and dull skin to reveal fresh and glowing skin. However, you also need to be careful with exfoliators. If you use one that is too harsh or you over-use it, you'll end up damaging your skin. Typically, it's best to exfoliate twice a week in the beginning as your face gets used to it. Beginner exfoliators can contain hydroxy acids like AHA/BHA rather than physical ingredients like ground walnut or pumice crystals. If you go for a chemical exfoliant, look for a lower strength to allow your skin to adjust. You can then increase the strength over time.
Adding these three products to your skincare routine in 2022 will ensure you reveal a fresh and glowing complexion.
