Four basic steps
Good facial treatment involves four basic steps: cleanse, tone, care and protect.

To clean
Thorough cleansing is the first step in effective skincare. It eliminates impurities, perspiration, sebum, and make-up, and prepares the skin for treatment. Cleansed skin absorbs the active ingredients of skin care products more easily.
The woman applies toner with a cotton pad.
Tone
This removes all traces of cleanser and refreshes the skin while restoring its natural pH.
The woman applies care to her cheek.
To take care
Care products moisturize and regenerate the skin. Many of them target specific skin concerns.
Protect
Sun protection is important on days when your skin is exposed to harmful UV rays as this is the number one cause of premature skin aging. Most day creams have a sun protection factor of 15.
Your skincare routine should be done twice a day: morning and evening. The program varies according to the time of day, specific needs, and the condition of your skin.
About Cleanse And Tone Steps
About the “cleanse and tone” steps
Why cleanse and tone?
An effective facial regimen begins with gently, yet thoroughly, cleansing and toning the skin to:
Eliminate impurities, perspiration, sebum, and make-up, without drying out the skin.
Prepare the skin for your facial care program. Valuable ingredients in facial care products are best absorbed when applied to clean skin.
Cleansing is particularly important for acne-prone skin so that it can better maintain its natural balance and facilitate the natural regeneration process.
How to cleanse and tone
They divide thorough cleansing into two main steps: a cleansing gel or milk, then a toning product. If you wear eye makeup, it’s a good idea to add a makeup remover specifically designed for the eyes as the third step in your cleansing regimen. concerns
Step 1
To gently remove make-up from eyelashes and delicate areas around the eyes. The best way to apply make-up remover is to use a cotton ball and gently sweep it over the area around the eyes.
2nd step
Choose a cleanser that suits your skin type. Cleansing milk is best suited for skin types prone to dryness. For normal, combination, or oily skin, Eucerin recommends using a cleansing gel.
Step 3
It removes any remaining traces of the cleansing product and refreshes the skin while restoring its natural pH. The best way to apply a toning product is to use a cotton ball and gently rub it over your face.
cleansers should be rinsed thoroughly with lukewarm water. Avoid using too hot water, especially on sensitive skin; extreme temperatures can cause irritation.
Cleansing milk is applied and removed with a cotton ball and does not require water. However, you can gently remove the cleansing milk with lukewarm water if you prefer.
Three-in-one products are a convenient combination of cleanser, toner, and eye make-up remover. Even so, using separate eye cleansers, toners, and makeup removers always yields better results. Three-in-one cleansers should be applied by gently wiping a cotton ball over your face and eye area.
How to choose appropriate cleaning and invigorating products
Cleaning is the first step in your skincare program: cleaned skin better absorbs the active ingredients of your care products.
Water alone will not clean your face. You must use a surfactant agent (a detergent that dissolves water and fat) to retain impurities and delicately eliminate them from your skin. It is important to choose soft products for the skin. Regular cleaning with ordinary soaps or aggressive surfactant agents can weaken the barrier function of the skin:
- By modifying the slightly acidic natural pH of the skin, located between 5.4 and 5.9, in a neutral, even alkaline pH, and by reducing its ability to fight bacteria.
- By disturbing proteins from the corneal layer.
- By eliminating protective lipids of the skin (fat that helps maintain cohesion between epidermis cells).
When the skin barrier function is weakened, it is more sensitive and more prone to drought and irritation.

Cleaning products
Choose a cleaning product:
Soft with your skin and which will not dry it out
Specially formulated to suit your type and skin problems
Scrupulously tested and, ideal, suitable for sensitive skin
To choosing between milk and a gel, the general rule wants the skin drier, and more cleansing milk is recommended. It will preserve natural skin lipids so that it remains balanced. Cleansing gels are perfect for cleaning normal to mixed skin.
Invigorating products
Eucerin recommends using alcohol-free products for most skin types. Alcohol products have a refreshing effect, but they can eliminate natural skin lipids. The skin can then start producing more lipids to try to renew those that have been eliminated. Alcohol can accentuate the dryness of dry skin.
Products three in one
The products three in one, like the micellar lotions, make it possible to clean, tone, and remove the eyes at once. The adipose molecules are suspended in water quickly and gently eliminate makeup. Micellar cleaning products offer a practical alternative to the use of three different products.
The Eucerin Dermatoclean range of cleaning products includes milk, toning, eye makeup remover, and one product three in one. The whole range has been tested for sensitive skin and includes products for all skin types

All about the facial care program
Why take care of the skin?
Care products must hydrate and regenerate the skin. Hydration increases not only the amount of skin water but also helps the skin to get rid of its dead cells, leaving it soft, smooth, and pleasant. Many care products help fight specific skin problems.
Complementary care products can help fight specific skin problems, such as premature skin aging, hyperpigmentation, and acne. These complementary care products are often available in the form of serums or concentrate.
Step 1
Complementary care
They contain the most active ingredients among the products of your skincare program. These complementary care products must therefore be applied to freshly cleansed skin before applying a day or night cream. This makes it possible to ensure that they are perfectly absorbed and that they penetrate well into the skin.
Step 2
Day or night care
A day or night moisturizer should be used to hydrate and regenerate the facial skin, but also to provide it with the active ingredients that help to fight against any particular skin problem that you may suffer.
Step 3
Eyecare
Eye care products must be applied with caution, after your day or night care product, delicately dab the cream on the eye area.
The drug treatments prescribed by a dermatologist to treat conditions such as acne or atopic dermatitis must be applied in the same way as the complementary care product: always first, on a delicately cleaned skin and before the application of the Day or night cream. Specific care products should be absorbed by the skin for two minutes before applying a day or night care product.
If you use a complementary care product, let it be absorbed by the skin for at least two minutes before applying a day or night cream. If your skin does not need this type of product, apply the day or night cream directly to your carefully cleaned face.
How to choose an appropriate care product
Care products should be adapted to your skin type and target any particular problem you may have. The choice of your care product can also be adapted to the season (for example, many people prefer to use lighter lotions when it is hot and have richer creams during the cold winter months).

Daycare and night care
Many care products can be used in the morning and evening. Others are formulated for specific use on the day or night:
Day: Some moisturizers contain a sun protection index (SPF). They are therefore suitable for day use, but should not be used in the evening. Other care products contain pigments (for example, certain products used to reduce redness or acne signs) and should not be used until the day.
Night: the skin regenerates during the night. In addition to moisturizing the skin, night creams contain active ingredients that stimulate the cellular regeneration process. They do not have a sun protection index and do not contain a pigment.
The skin's skincare
The delicate skin contour skin is particularly fine and sensitive. It is, therefore, more vulnerable than the rest of the facial skin. It is for this reason that a specially formulated eye care product is beneficial. Eye creams should be applied with care.

Protection
Everything about the sun protection of the face
Effective sun protection is essential to maintaining healthy skin. It must be an integral part of your daily facial care program. If a few minutes of daily exposure to the sun promote good production of vitamin D, facial skin is often exposed to UV rays for several hours a day. Overexposure to UV rays is the main cause of premature aging of the skin. This is why the skin that will be exposed must be protected by sun protection.

How to protect

Protect your skin from harmful UV rays that can cause premature aging of the skin.
Several day creams already incorporate a sun protection index, often SPF 15. But generally, the skin needs higher sun protection (SPF) can be applied more, or instead, your cream usual day, whether with or without SPF.
Products containing a sun protection index must be applied during the last stage of your daily morning care program.
How to choose the right sun protection
Several factors must be taken into account to choose the suitable sun protection index for your skin:
Skin color (do you have dark or light skin? Clear skin is more sensitive to exposure to UV rays than dark skin.)
Skin problem
Season
Exposure level (depending on the climate)
Duration of exposure
Questions and answers
Do I have to use a separate daytime and sun protection index?
For certain types of skins, and when a higher sun protection index is required, a dedicated sun protection product replaces the day cream. For dry skin, it is preferable to use a day cream and add additional sun protection at the end of the daily care program. Your choice depends on your lifestyle, your personal preferences, and the reaction of your skin to environmental factors, such as humidity. The highest applied sun protection index determines the level of protection: if you want to add a sun protection product with an SPF 30 to a day cream with an SPF 15, the total protection level is an SPF 30.
Discover more information on the sun protection products and indices recommended by Eucerin for your skin type and its health status, and the level of sun protection that you must use on the recommended sun protection page.
Are facial masks a good idea?
Yes, facial masks are particularly effective in regenerating dry and dehydrated skin. Eucerin recommends that you use your night cream and apply a little more than usual on your face, throat, and neckline. Night creams are richer than day creams. They contain regenerating active agents, such as panthenol, but do not have an index of sun protection or pigments.
What should I remember if I use makeup when I suffer from atopic skin?
Consult your dermatologist or pharmacist so that it recommends products tested on patients with eczema, without perfumes or current allergens. If you have acne, systematically use non -comedogenic products for oily or mixed skin.
