How to Create a Skincare Routine: A Step-by-Step Guide

Whether you are new to this or looking to refine your skincare routine, this guide can help you create a skincare regimen tailored to your specific needs. Generally speaking the absolute basics include cleansing, moisturizing, and protecting such as sun protection. Treatments and serums come into play when one is considering an acne or hyperpigmentation routine, or if you are looking for preventative options such as an anti-aging routine.

Step 1: Determine Your Skin Type.

Understanding your skin type is important for selecting the right products. Some of the most common types include:

Normal: balanced skin-neither too oilt or dry

Oily: Prone to excess sebum production, often shiny appearance throughout the day.

Dry: Feels tight, lacks moisture, can appear flaky.

Combination: Oily in some areas such as the T-zone, and dry in others.

Sensitive: Easily irritated, red, unable to try many products.

Step 2: A Basic Skincare Routine

As alluded to above, a basic routine will include cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection. Here is how one could do it including our lineup of Oathology products.

AM:

  1. Cleanse with a gentle cleanser of your choice or water. If acne-prone or oily, consider an alpha hydroxy acid based cleanser.
  2. Moisturize with your favorite moisturizer.
  3. Oathology Inzincable Sunscreen.

PM:

  1. Cleanse with a gentle cleanser of your choice. If acne-prone or oily, consider an alpha hydroxy acid based cleanser.
  2. Moisturize with your favorite moisturizer.

Step 3: Start adding products for a more advanced skincare routine.

This is where it depends on if you’re looking for prevention of fine lines and wrinkles, to improve hyperpigmentation, or improve acne. Here is how to incorporate the entire Oathology lineup – and don’t forget to check out the Oathology trifecta trios.
