hispanic skin tends to be oily. make sure the products
are formulated for sensitive skin, because harsh products threaten to take
healthy brown skin and turn it blotchy (by throwing off the melanin pigmentation).
Cleanse
with a gentle cleanser every morning and night to remove dirt,
oil, and makeup without over hydrating or removing too much
of your skin's natural oils.
Exfoliate to remove dead skin cells to reveal fresh, vibrant skin and stimulate your complexion at least 3 times a week.
Tone your skin with an alcohol-based toner to tighten pores
and remove any traces of cleanser or other residue.
Moisturize in the morning and night with a gel or oil-free lotion to protect and
not aggressively hydrate your skin.
Sun Block will protect your skin during the day, using oil-free
products.
Seasonal Care
for Hispanic Skin
it is expected that your skin experience slight changes throughout each
season.
Winter
is typically the skin’s driest season, due to decreasing humidity, cold temperatures, and increased time spent indoors with dehydrating heating
systems. apply richer, creamier moisturizers to the face and body at this time to help maintain healthy hydration levels. consider using a humidifier
at home and at the office to add moisture to the air. alternate lightweight, water-based products with richer, nourishing formulas.
Spring
is when the skin is ready to
shed layers of dead, flaky patches, so exfoliation will be a top priority. as the season progresses, you can shift to lighter cleansers and moisturizers
in preparation for the warm months ahead.
Summer
usually means increased outdoor activity and sun exposure. protect
your skin with sun block and moisturizers with SPF during the day,
every day. oil-free products are a smart choice to avoid shiny, oily
skin, and clogged pores.
Fall is a cool, refreshing transition from summer to winter
and requires all the essential skin care basics -- protection from
the sun with sun block, replenishing hydration, and exfoliation.
