If you're lazy and prefer a minimalistic skincare routine, you;ve  come to the right place! This article will take you through the skincare essentials that you require for a quick and easy everyday regimen for the skin.

Given the amount of makeup that we all put on our face on a daily basis, a skincare routine is a must-have! Without one, you are simply exposing the skin to acne breakout and other skin-related problems.

So, sit tight, buckle up and enjoy the ride!

Cleanse

This is the most fundamental of all steps. You must cleanse your face at least twice every day, once before applying layers of makeup and then after makeup removal before you are tucking yourself in for a good night’s sleep. Cleansing can be as simple as doing it with oil, or you can choose from the options stated further in this article for the various skin types.

Moisturize

The second step is to moisturize to keep the skin sufficiently hydrated. Since we are talking about minimal products, toners and serums are not required. Keep a good moisturizer handy and you are good to go! Moisturizing the skin on a daily basis can also help fight signs of aging. Furthermore, a good moisturizer can provide protection from the harmful UV radiation that due to constant and prolonged sun exposure.

Eyes & Lips

For minimalist skincare, you must not overlook the eyes or lips. Your eyes need to be looked after and that too on a daily basis because the skin around the eyes is more sensitive than the skin on the face. Use a night cream around the eyes to protect the skin from damage, dark circles, and wrinkles. Use Lancome Visionnaire Yeux Eye Balm for a fresh and hydrating texture.

Chapped lips are common in winters, but a lot of people have dried lips throughout the year owing to carelessness. Your lip care is as important as the other parts of the skincare routine. Make sure your lips are hydrated and supple throughout the day. Keep a lip balm handy at all times. The Lancome Absolue Precious Cells Nourishing Lip Balm comes equipped with beeswax, acacia honey, rosehip seed oil and vitamin E to keep your lips nourished and hydrated round the clock!

Products to Choose From

Here is a list of products that you can choose from if you have the following skin types. These will generally include moisturizers and cleansers.

For Oily Skin

If you are looking to treat oily skin, the Neutrogena Ultra Gentle Daily Cleanser is great for keeping the skin safe from dirt, pollution and irritating essential oils and skin allergens.

For moisturizer, Neutrogena’s Healthy Defense Daily Moisturizer has been made especially for oily skin and comes equipped with sunscreen SPF50 to ensure moisturized skin for the entire day with its non-greasy finish.
