When it comes to establishing a skincare routine in your 20s, it’s always important to know the basics. Though the hype of multistep beauty regimens is real, you don’t always need a complicated one to achieve healthy, glowing skin.
Multihyphenate Bianca Gonzales is good proof of this. Her busy schedule as a successful TV personality and a mom taught her a thing or two about simplifying her beauty routine without compromising the benefits.
For someone who is constantly on the makeup chair, Bianca’s skin takes a beating. Her beauty regimen mainly focuses on the basics. She shares: “My beauty routine has been the same one I’ve been doing since my late 20s. I cleanse, tone, and moisturize before leaving the house in the morning and sleeping at night.” Below, tips on how you can do the same:
1. Prioritize cleansing.
Using a gentle makeup remover, sweep off makeup that cleanser and water usually can’t remove. “I use Sanicare baby wipes since they’re super mild on the skin,” Bianca reveals. Clean your face using circular or upward motions—constant tugging will cause your skin to sag—and make sure to give extra attention to the eyes to get rid of long-wearing eye makeup.
2. Tone up.
After cleansing, Bianca uses a toner to restore her skin’s natural pH level. This step is very important if you have oily or dry skin, since cleansing and washing often dries up our faces. Put a few drops of toner on a cotton ball and pay particular attention to your T-zone, the part of your face with the most oil glands. Bianca loves using Sanicare’s cotton balls because their extra jumbo size lets you cover more facial area.
3. Moisturize.
Moisturizing is especially important at night when your skin renews and repairs itself. Bianca offers a nifty trick when doing this step: “Apply moisturizer while your skin is still damp from toning. It will help better seal the hydrating effects of your moisturiser.” However, avoid doing this when you face is still wet—the moisturizer will just slide off your skin. Proper moisturizing can also save you from the additional steps of applying face masks and serums.
