SKINECARE -STEPS TO THE PERFECT SKINCARE ROUTINE
Great skin isn't just about DNA - your daily habits have a huge impact on what you see in the mirror. At Kajo, we believe in the power of natural ingredients and a thoughtful approach to skincare. Let's explore the steps to create your perfect skincare routine.
The Three Main Steps of Skincare:
1. Cleansing - Washing your face
2. Toning - Balancing the skin
3. Moisturizing - Hydrating and softening the skin
These steps form the foundation of any effective skincare routine. Let's dive deeper into each step and discover how to maximize their benefits.
Cleansing
Washing your face is the most basic and essential step. Cleanse twice daily to avoid clogged pores, dullness, and acne. Look for gentle, natural cleansers with ingredients like Jojoba Oil or Green Tea Extract, which cleanse without stripping the skin.
Toning
Modern toners are far from the harsh, alcohol-based products of the past. Think of them as supplements - these thin liquids deliver an extra shot of nutrients, helping other products absorb better while balancing your complexion. Kajo toner includes ingredients like Allantoin and Calendula Extract, known for their soothing and calming properties.
Moisturizing
Moisturizers hydrate, soften, and help prevent water loss through the outer layers of skin. Our moisturizers incorporate nourishing ingredients like Shea Butter, Argan Oil, and Squalane to deeply hydrate and protect the skin barrier.
The Art of Layering
The order in which you apply your skincare can significantly impact its effectiveness. After cleansing and toning, apply your products in order of thinnest to thickest consistency. Wait about 30 seconds between each layer to ensure proper absorption. For instance:
1. Kajo toner with soothing Allantoin
2. Hyaluronic Acid serum
3. Facial oil (like Argan or Jojoba)
4. Moisturizer with Shea Butter
Treating with Serums
Serums are powerful skin allies, filled with concentrated active ingredients. Look for serums containing Hyaluronic Acid for hydration, Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) for brightening, or Bakuchiol, a gentle, natural alternative to retinol.
Sun Protection
Sunscreen is crucial for preventing premature aging and maintaining skin health. Look for formulas that also nourish with ingredients like Vitamin E or Green Tea Extract.
The Power of Facial Massage
Incorporate a brief facial massage into your routine, especially when applying serums or oils. This promotes better product absorption, improves circulation, and gives your skin a natural glow.
Seasonal Skincare
Adjust your routine with the seasons. In winter, focus on extra hydration with ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid and Squalane. In summer, lighten up your routine and prioritize sun protection.
The Skin-Gut Connection
Recent research highlights the connection between gut health and skin appearance. This is where our use of probiotics in skincare becomes particularly relevant, supporting both your skin's microbiome and overall health.
Nighttime Repair
While you sleep, your skin goes into repair mode. Make the most of this time with products containing ingredients like Bakuchiol, Grape Stem Cells, or Yogurt Extract, which support skin renewal and hydration.
