Basic facial products & their use
- Cleanser➡️cleanses the skin
- Toner➡️ Facial toner works by helping to minimize the appearance of pores and create a smoother looking appearance. Toner also restores your skin’s pH level, smooths skin by refining rough patches and improves skin tone, leaving skin better protected against environmental stressors.
- Scrub➡️ The first and foremost benefit of using a facial scrub is exfoliation by removing the dead skin cells from your face. Dead skin cells make your face look dry, dull and later wrinkled. Facial scrubs exfoliate your skin thoroughly and remove clogged pores.
- Massage cream➡️ It’s a marvelous moisturizer. When applied to the skin, massage creams act as a protective barrier keeping moisture in the skin instead of allowing it to evaporate. It enhances the hydration level, prevents dryness and brings the shine. It allows deep penetration of ingredients and smoothens the texture of the dermal layer.
- Mask➡️ Facial masks refine pores. They also tighten, exfoliate, soften, and brighten the skin.
