As time passes, the skin is subjected to many changes, caused by as many internal and external factors. To keep it elastic and radiant, it is important to know the most important steps of a correct skincare routine, identify the products best suited to your needs and know how to apply them in the right order.
Don’t know where to start? Here are some tips from Kidaria researchers
Cleansing
Regardless of age and skin type, the first good habit is certainly cleansing. Cleansing your skin correctly and constantly promotes cell renewal and the absorption of the active ingredients contained in cosmetic products, helping you maintain healthy, hydrated and elastic skin. Choose a gentle cleanser, suitable for your skin type, and use it twice a day. In the morning it works by freeing the pores from excess sebum residues from night-time treatments and dead cells. In the evening it helps to remove make-up residues and polluting microparticles that we come into contact with during the day.
Exfoliation
Did you know that our skin typically takes around 28 days to fully renew itself? An excellent ally for stimulating and accelerating skin renewal is exfoliation, which can be done using scrubs (physical exfoliants) or peels (chemical exfoliants). Adding exfoliation to your skincare routine at least once a week will make your skin appear smoother, softer and more uniform, as well as promoting the production of collagen and elastin and the absorption of the active ingredients applied with subsequent treatments.
Routine 20-35 years
After adequate facial cleansing, start your skincare routine by applying the Face serum – Immediate Lift of the Dionisia line on the face, lips and eye contour. Thanks to its particular texture, it is absorbed in a few seconds and penetrates deeply, preparing the skin to effectively absorb the active ingredients of the cosmetics applied afterwards. If you don’t have particular needs for the eye contour area, proceed with the Antiage Face Cream, massaging it delicately on the face, neck and décolleté until completely absorbed. Also very suitable as an after-sun, it gives the skin the necessary nourishment and antioxidant protection. Furthermore, its luminous and hydrating finish is an excellent make-up base for drier skin. Repeat the treatment in the evening. Useful tip: if you have oily skin you can only use the Serum, but if you have dry skin always apply the Cream too. Do you have combination skin? After the serum, apply the cream only to the less oily parts of the face, generally cheeks, neck and décolleté.
Routine 35-45 years
It is exactly in this age group that cell renewal begins to slow down and we see the first signs of aging appear, such as dark circles, bags and fine wrinkles, especially in the area around the eyes. Don’t worry: to keep the skin healthy and toned for a long time all you need to do is be consistent with your skincare routine, giving yourself the time for small daily gestures that can become a real treat. Let’s see how together! Clean the skin thoroughly using a gentle cleanser, rinse and proceed with the Face serum – Immediate Lift, not forgetting to apply it also on eye contour and lips. Depending on your skin type, absorption times may vary: wait at least 10-15 seconds before moving on to the next step. Next, apply the Dionisia Anti-wrinkle Eye Contour by gently tapping until completely absorbed. If the “crow’s feet” wrinkles are more pronounced, use the product twice a day, morning and evening. Proceed with the Antiage Face Cream by massaging it on the face, neck and décolleté. It will give you a pleasant sensation of deep and long-lasting hydration. In the case of oily or combination skin, apply the product only on the less oily parts of the face, cheeks, neck and décolleté, areas that often reveal the first signs of aging.
Routine after 45 years
Whether you are already familiar with the concept of skincare routine or you are approaching this universe afresh, the secret to making the most of the beauty of our skin is knowing how to observe it, understanding its needs depending on the season, lifestyle and age. After the age of forty, the skin becomes even more demanding. Cell turnover slows down, expression lines become more pronounced, the complexion changes and skin relaxation is accentuated. For your beauty routine you will therefore have to carefully choose targeted products formulated with anti-aging active ingredients. All the products in the Dionisia line are particularly suitable for meeting all these needs. After thorough cleansing you can start your skincare routine by applying the Face serum – Immediate Lift on the face, lips and eye contour. After 10-15 seconds, proceed with the Anti-wrinkle Eye Contour by delicately tapping the entire area around the eyes, taking care that the product is completely absorbed. Conclude your beauty routine with the Antiage Face Cream by applying a generous dose all over your face, neck and décolleté. Massage until completely absorbed. Repeat the complete treatment twice a day.
