• In the skincare community, especially in
  Bountiful Black skincare tips and dermatological
  recommendations are fleeting and few. Because we
  have more richly-melanated skin, there are some
  different practices to consider when it comes to
  skincare. One of the most important aspects of
  skincare is having a facial routine! Below is a
  seven-step skincare routine designed specifically
  for Black skin and darker skin tones.

Step One Cleanse

• If you want to keep your skin glowing on the
  daily, be sure to wash your face every morning as
  part of your skincare routine, without
  exceptions. Cleansing your face with a soft cloth
  or a foam cleanser eliminates buildup such as
  dirt, sweat, and oil. Failure to do so causes
  bacteria and dead skin cells to accumulate,
  resulting in acne and swelling. For proper use,
  massage a gel or foam cleanser onto damp skin.

Step Two Apply Toner

• Toner is an especially beneficial step in the
  skincare routine for those with oily skin or
  those inclined to wear heavy makeup. Toner is
  used to balance the pH levels in our skin as well
  as remove any excess dirt. Stick to toners with
  antioxidants and anti-inflammatories rather than
  those with alcohol or other harsh chemicals.

5
Step Three Serum

• Face serums are a mix of moisturizers and
  anti-inflammatories. Apply serum to your skin
  each morning to reduce any swelling or irritation
  on your skin and keep your complexion looking
  smooth.

6
Step Four Eye Cream

• Dark circles are a genetic challenge thats
  particularly common in the Black community. Eye
  cream is a great way to reduce wrinkles, increase
  hydration, and blend out dark circles under the
  eyes. Most brands are compatible with sensitive
  skin.

Step Five Spot Treatment

• Acne is a common problem in Bountifulwe all deal
  with it at some point. If youre having an off
  day, youre on your monthly cycle, or your skin
  is particularly oily, spot treatment is a fast
  and easy way to reduce the size and perceptible
  of a blemish.

Step Six Moisturize

• In order to protect your skins barrier,
  moisturization is necessary. Dampen your face
  before applying moisturizer so that it can
  penetrate the skin.

9
Step Seven Sunscreen

• Last but not least, apply sunscreen! Protect your
  skin from harmful UV rays by using sunscreen with
  an SPF of at least 15 to 30. Even darker skin
  tones are susceptible to UV damage, so be sure to
  include this step in your routine.

• Once youve completed this 7-step skincare
  process, you can apply any makeup that youd
  like! Be proud of your skin and who you are.
