just that you know this was my skin a few months ago and this is my skin
now both of these videos were taken with no filters
and no makeup on my friend i hope you're doing fantastic today
and as you saw in the title we'll be talking about textured
bumpy skin and this specific video that i put together for you
it's going to be a skincare routine based on ingredients
there are proven to help you out with smoothing texture skin hi my name
is doro and i make natural beauty videos here on youtube so make sure to
subscribe and hit the bell notification to be part of the pura vida family so as
soon as you wake up if you shower or if you don't
no matter what you do always prepare your skin to be ready for the
day and the way you do that is by having a solid
skincare routine that is going to provide hydration
and protection to your skin throughout the day and here's what you're going to
follow i'm going to try to put my entire
skincare routine with only one hand yay so the first step
is always gonna be washing your hands before touching your
skin so that you can avoid getting bacteria on your skin
especially if you have acne or oily skin you need to get into
this habit right now let's start with washing my face
once you are done the second step will be washing your face with
cold water using a gentle facial cleanser in the morning at
night i'm just going to massage this facial cleanser in my skin
for about 20 seconds so that i can make sure to take my time to
wash my face best ingredients defined in a facial cleanser for textured skin
that has acne acne prone skin or salicylic acid
nincinamide or lactic acid and for those with dry
texture skin look for a milky hydrating cleanser
that has ceramides glycerin or hyaluronic acid in it
repeat after me makeup wipes are not a replacement
of soap and water perfect
look how clean and how hydrated my skin looks already let's move on to
the third step which is exfoliating your skin one or two times a
week ideally at nighttime one of the reasons
you might be experiencing texture skin could be
related to the fact that your skin is a little bit congested congestive skin is
basically a buildup of dead skin cells oils and gunk stuck on the surface of
your skin that's why skin could look dull or you have the
rough bumpy feeling when you touch it in my experience chemical
exfoliators are a must in your skincare routine when
you are suffering with textured skin because they're going to be more
efficient in deep cleaning your skin compared to a physical exfoliator
there's one acid called alpha hydraulic acid which only
exfoliates the surface of your skin and it can be
found in products as glycolic acid or lactic acid this type of exfoliator is
perfect for surface clogged pores and for glowing up
dull skin the other acid that is recommended for textured skin is called
beta hydroxic acid which is known as salicylic acid
this type of exfoliator works on cleaning the deeper layer of your skin
so it is perfect for people to suffer with plaque heads and acne
because this acid will penetrate the pores and basically
melt and clean out all the stuff stuck in there they can potentially turn into
a bigger problem any acid is going to make your skin
sensitive to the sunlight i always prefer just to do this whenever
i need to give my skin that extra glow or that extra exfoliation that a
physical exfoliant is not giving me my skin next day always
looks very bright it's clean it's glowing it's
just beautiful the first step is applying a hydrating
or calming toner to me toner needs to have
a purpose in my skincare routine so here's my toner
so for example in summer i was using a toner only when i was rubbing an ice
cube on my skin look at my skin ice cubes are so great
but i don't like to overdo it i only use ice
cubes if i'm producing a lot of oil on the t-zone or whenever i
wake up with such a dull berry tiger skin i
love to use ice cubes just to waking up my skin
now that is winter time a hydrating toner is super important to add in my
routine because it's going to help to keep skin
supple and less rough during this time when it's a little bit
more cold so look for toners that contain glycerin
rose water chamomile aloe vera lavender or tea tree oil this thing is
so fantastic it's free of alcohol parabens
sulfates and i don't know that word thoughts it's
smooth and and it even protects your skin from hard
weather so for example during winter time as soon as your skin
gets stamped you're gonna follow up with the fifth
step which is applying a vitamin c serum before using any serum
make sure to shake the product if you don't know
vitamin c is another important ingredient to have in your
skincare routine especially if you're dealing with dark
spots acne scars sun damage and bumpy rough skin
i do one two
and three i normally do four because i also apply on my neck
apply also in your neck and now i'm just going to
gently massage the product all over my skin
vitamin c not only protects and regenerates your skin
from damage will also reduce poor appearance
and my favorite is that it will give you the dewy glow effect
kind of like a glass skin effect that we all love
this serum right here is the holy grail of the texture skin
it contains everything every single ingredient that is recommended
to have in your skincare routine for getting rid of
texture bumpy you know congested skin as soon as i
started introducing this product again in my skincare routine
my skin in a few weeks started to look much better reduce a lot of the texture
skin on the forehead which is the main
problem for me i can skip toner but i'll never skip
this product ever again so after serum you're going to apply
moisturizer in fact dehydration is actually linked
to one of the common causes of having textured skin you know the daily
water intake is super important when it comes to fixing texture skin but also
avoiding skin care products that contain harsh ingredients like
alcohol perfumes including natural fragrance
sulfates mineral oils and parabens could be giving you rough
skin as a form of reaction the amount of moisturizer i
always or generally i use so instead look for moisturizers that contain
ingredients such as hyaluronic acid peptides ceramides rosehip oil
which are known for restoring and maintaining skin hydration
and skin health the moisturizer that i'm gonna use was gifted from
mix easy this face cream i actually made it
yes actually with mix easy you pick your own ingredients
based on the needs of your skin and in this case i made
this one for texture skin it has pomegranate which is
fantastic and it actually says in the website that is good for
uneven texture skin the consistency in this formula is a little bit heavy so it
is perfect if you have dry skin it is perfect
for winter time if you're interested in trying mix easy products make sure to
use dodoku video code for 15 of of your purchase next course step in
your skincare routine will be applying and
never skipping sunscreen all the skin care products that you just apply will
be worthless if you don't protect your skin
from the sun during the day yep another reason bumpy skin is saying
high on your forehead could be due to the sun damage that your
skin might be experiencing just a friendly reminder the sun has the
power of turning your skin into a raisin if you don't protect it from it
so just make sure to wear sunscreen every single day
some of the moisturizers up there they already contain
some protection so if you don't want to do that extra step
just try to find a moisturizer that already contains
an fpf of 30 minimum you guys can see my skin looks really clean barely have
texture skin outside of my daily skincare routine
twice or three times a week depending on the needs of my skin i will
apply a facial mask my favorites right now for smoothing out
textured skin are these diy rice face masks or this
ginseng face mask from mix easy and if my skin needs more of a clean up
bentonite clay mask always works well friend i know how
frustrating it is the feeling of touching
bumpy textured skin every single day but you have to understand
that this is a process it could take you a few months
to actually see positive results normally give
a new product or a new skincare routine about
a month and a half for you to see results if not giving you any results
then you can adjust to a new other product i love you
and i hope i'll get to see you in the next video
