The following is a method that you can use as a reference in choosing skincare products, as reported by briliobeauty.net from the YouTube account of Dr. Kamilah Jaidi, MARS, Dipl. AAAM, Friday (7/6).
1. Know your skin type or type.
Before choosing the skincare product to use, make sure you know your skin type. Well, you can find out by doing a skin test in the morning before going to bed.
"When you wake up, without makeup and without skincare, you can use oil paper. You stick it on four areas, right and left cheeks, nose, forehead and chin," said Doctor Kamilah.
After sticking the oil paper on the four areas of your face, you can wait for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, you will know the results. If the oil paper on your cheeks, chin, nose and forehead does not come off, then your skin type is oily.
But if it comes off completely, then your skin type is dry. Meanwhile, if the oil paper comes off only on the cheek area, it could mean that your skin type is combination.
2. Determine the right basic skincare.
Determining basic skincare is actually something that is easy and difficult. However, you can determine basic skincare that is suitable for you, by adjusting your skin type and needs, as follows.
- Dry skin: Choose a facial wash that is gentle, a moisturizer that is emollient with a slightly thick texture, and a sunscreen that has maximum protection and is non-alcoholic and non-perfume.
- Oily skin: Choose a facial wash that can reduce oil levels, a light moisturizer with a water-like texture, and a sunscreen that has an SPF that is not too high (so it doesn't clog facial pores).
"For combination skin, you can mix and match," said Doctor Kamilah.
3. Add the right skincare ingredients to solve your skin problems.
In this third trick, you need to pay attention to your facial skin problems to determine which skincare to use. This is done to determine the active skincare ingredients you need to treat skin problems on your face. Examples include the following.
- Aging problems: You can use basic skincare every day and additionally use retinol 2-3 times a week.
- Acne problems: Basic skincare and additional BHA or salicylic acid agents 2-3 times a week
- Dull problem: Basic skincare and additional AHA agents (lactic acid or glycolic acid)
- Sensitive skin problems: Basic skincare and PHA agents (gluconolactone, galactose, and lactobionic acids).
