How to Start a Skin Care Routine

Many of us get our skincare information from a combination of advertisements, advice from friends, and online research. However, it can be difficult to translate this information into an effective routine that works for you.

We've put together a guide to help you create a personalized, easy-to-maintain routine. A focused, flexible foundation means you can spend less time searching while still getting the results you want.

Know Your Skin Type

Knowing your skin type is crucial for choosing the most suitable products. Skincare brands often list your target skin type in their product descriptions, and some are specifically formulated for a particular type.

There are many online quizzes to determine your skin type, or you can assess it by observing how your skin behaves:

• Dry skin: Feeling of tightness, itching, dull appearance. In severe cases, the skin may peel or crack.
• Normal Skin: Balanced, with occasional fluctuations between dry and oily.
• Combination skin: Shiny, oily areas (often the forehead and nose), while other areas may be dry and flaky.
• Oily skin: Generalized shine, pores often clogged by excess sebum.

Skin types are general categories. Don't worry if you don't fit perfectly into one of them. Use the filters in the skincare section of our Coree Beauty website to find products that match your skin type and make browsing easier.

So Many Products! What Should I Use?

Setting clear goals simplifies your search and guides your routine.

Whether you want to reduce pigmentation or treat dark spots, give yourself time to focus on a specific goal. Your products will work consistently to achieve the same goals, making it easier to track your progress.

With a clear idea of ​​your goals, you'll save time, energy, and money. Use our filters to get a curated list of products or learn how to treat some of the most common skin concerns.

No Magic Number

The number of steps in your routine matters less than using effective products for your skin. For most people, the basics include cleansing, a specific treatment, moisturizing, and sunscreen during the day. Other steps, like exfoliation, are best used a few times a week.

Being clear about the purpose of each product is essential to keeping your routine simple and effective.

Evolve with Your Skin

Your skin will undergo short- and long-term changes. Don't be surprised if products and routines that previously worked well need some adjustments.

• Seasonal changes: Adjust your routine according to the seasons, such as changing exfoliants and moisturizers.
• Aging: Over time, skin becomes drier and thinner. Incorporating additional anti-aging and moisturizing ingredients can be beneficial.

Create a Ritual You Love!

The most effective routines are those you enjoy and stick with. Here are some tips to make your routine enjoyable:

• Use products you love: A pleasant texture or scent can make your morning and evening routine more enjoyable.
• Savor the progress: Nothing is more satisfying than reaching your skincare goals. Seeing the results of your routine will encourage you to maintain it.
• Stay flexible: Your routine should fit around your life. Focus on the essentials when you're short on time and add extra steps when you have the opportunity.

Your skincare routine shouldn't be a chore, but it should work for you. Find more tips on choosing products, solving skin problems, and other skincare basics on our blog.
