How to Get the Best Results from Skincare Products [DermTV.com Epi #282]



We all want to get the best possible results we can from all of our skincare products. In order to do that you need to prepare your skin the same way every time with a cleanser and toner before you put those skin care products on in order to remove the oil, dirt and debris that would otherwise prevent the active ingredients in those skin care products from working. So whether we're talking about exfoliants, peptides, antioxidants, moisturizers, make-up or even sunscreen you want to use a cleanser and a toner every time before you put them on. Now some people only use cleanser and that's okay and some people only use toner but make sure whatever you're doing, you're doing it consistently and the same way every time. First of all, with your cleanser, start in the same place on your face and go to different areas the same way every time you wash your face. When you're doing that be aware of the time you're spending, fifteen seconds, thirty seconds maximum but try to spend the same amount of time every time. And if you're just using toner again, start in the same place and use it for the same amount of time. Third, make sure you're using the same products every time you prepare your face. Now we all do a lot of traveling and a lot of us only take carry-on bags. Well, in order to make sure that those mean TSA people don't take away your skin care products, make sure they're available in travel sizes. While this may sound like a lot of detail, really all of this information is based on science and these results are based on science and I'm just giving you the best information I can so you can make the best choices you can and get the very best results every time.
