There are three essential daily skincare routines even dermatologists practice. First is moisturizing. Our skin is constantly exposed to external environments and can easily become dry. It's crucial to strengthen the moisture barrier by applying a hydrating cream and maintaining appropriate humidity, along with sufficient water intake. Second is sunscreen. Photoaging caused by UV rays is a primary culprit of skin aging, making proper UV protection essential. Sunscreen can be considered the most fundamental aspect of skin health. Finally, cleansing. Thorough cleansing morning and night is key to skincare. Gently removing impurities from external activities and makeup residue is crucial for reducing skin burden and maintaining healthy skin. These three routines are the most important habits for skin health.
