Skincare Resolutions Dermatologists Want You to Make in 2022

The year is slowly but surely coming to an end, and we decided it would be an excellent idea to talk with our clients and ask them more about skincare resolutions you should definitely consider for 2023. Because who will give better advice than a medical professional with years of experience in the cosmetic beauty industry? So, here are the top 10 recommendations that can guarantee glowing, smooth, youthful skin for the following year!

#1. Pick Aesthetic Skin Care Products for Your Skin Type

We decided it’s better to start from the most obvious recommendation many people ignored this year. As we all know, there are five main types of skin: oily, dry, normal, combination, and sensitive. So, skincare products should be picked based on certain factors so as not to irritate the facial surface, prevent acne, dryness, and other unfortunate issues. Ideally, it should be done with a specialist to make sure every ingredient in one’s routine is picked correctly and will only help improve a person’s look in the future. Stop experimenting on your skin; leave it to professionals!

#2. Always Use Sunscreen

Even though this product seems simple and not as useful as everyone talks about, the truth is it’s one of the best helpers when it comes to preventing premature aging and sun damage. In the best-case scenario, you should use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect the face from harmful UVA (ultraviolet A radiation) and UVB (ultraviolet B radiation) sun’s rays. SPF 30 and higher would be perfect, and it should be applied after skincare is finished, right before putting on any makeup. Ideally, it’s recommended to renew SPF every 5-6 hours to make sure the barrier between one’s face and UVA rays is still present.

#3. Regular Cleansing Is Crucial

Cleansing is a crucial step in everyone’s skincare routine that helps remove all the dirt, natural oils, and dead skin cells before applying cream, sunscreen, and other essential products. It is recommended to cleanse every morning and evening; if the process is repeated regularly, people will notice a significant improvement in terms of skin tone, texture, as well as its general appearance.

#4. Stop Picking Your Skin

Skin picking is probably one of the worst habits people have when they are stressed. It’s one of the most common reasons for scarring and infections, and these skin issues are not something you would want to see when looking in the mirror. Searching for stress-relieving alternatives may be helpful. Consider popping bubble wrap, playing with small objects (like crystals or pens), or starting breathing exercises. You will see positive improvement pretty quickly and will be thankful to yourself, believe us!

#5. Don’t Leave Makeup on Overnight

Leaving makeup on overnight can be damaging in numerous ways; the most common one is that this action may lead to clogged pores, blackheads, breakouts, and other aesthetic issues. Even if you are exhausted, find 5-10 minutes to remove makeup and apply all essential products before going to bed to avoid dealing with the red, irritated facial surface in the morning.

#6. Throw Away Expired Products

New year – new me, so why not start with decluttering your house? In order to plan a proper skincare routine with the best products, it’s important to remember that too much – is not good. So, have a closer look at everything you have on your bathroom shelves: check the expiration dates, throw away items that irritated your skin in the past, and if there are a few similar products – leave the one that works best for you. There’s no need to have a few dozen bottles and tubes to care for one’s skin!

#7. Visit a Specialist if Something Bothers You

We believe you all know this annoying feeling when the skin suddenly turns from “I’m the queen of this world” to “don’t look at me ever.” And the truth is, there are numerous reasons why it may happen: hormonal changes, environmental stress, the aging process, and many others. The worst thing is, a lot of people start experimenting during such episodes and trying literally everything to make the problem gone when the best you can do is to just talk to a knowledgeable person, aka a dermatologist. Only with their help will it be possible to define what caused this sudden change, pick the best aesthetic makeup products, and get rid of all the irritation and imperfections in the shortest time span. So, stop experimenting on your skin and see a professional as soon as possible; you will thank yourself for that later.

#8. Moisturizing Is the Key to Success

You surely know that all beauty experts in the world recommend drinking plenty of water and staying hydrated to remain healthy and youthful. However, this process is equally important from both inside and outside. That’s why it’s crucial to apply a moisturizer regularly to keep your skin firm and to glowing. With time, you will not only see the reduction of aging signs (like fine lines); a correctly-picked cream can remove impurities such as blackheads and acne, and all of that in the shortest time span. To choose the best option, look closely at the ingredients list; aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, and squalane are among the most beneficial ones.

#9. Don’t Forget About Lips

Daily skin care is fantastic, nobody doubts it; however, due to numerous skin concerns that may require plenty of time, people often forget about taking care of the lip area, and this sensitive zone definitely deserves some pumper. If you apply special lip balms daily to moisturize them and use special masks at least once a week, it’ll be much easier to prevent dryness, cracks, and other unfortunate damages.

#10. Add Retinol and Vitamin C to Your Routine

If people are happy with their skincare routines, there is always a possibility to take a step up and perfect them with some helpful components – retinol (in the evening) and vitamin C (in the morning) in particular. Vitamin C is an antioxidant, so it works well with sunscreen to create a more powerful barrier, protect skin from harmful UV rays, and prevent dark spots and pigmentation marks. Retinol is the best option to reduce and prevent signs of aging; just use it every two-three days and make sure to pick the suitable variation with a specialist to make sure all components of your routine can be combined with each other.
