9 Best Skin Care Products for Best Protection of Your Sensitive Skin

Cleansing is the first step of any skin regime, and it's essential to your skin's health that it is done correctly.⁠ ⁠ Cleansing the skin removes makeup, sunscreen, and impurities/pollution built up from the day. ⁠ ⁠ Always use a Ph balanced cleanser to avoid compromising your skin's barrier.⁠ ⁠ I generally switch out my gel cleanser for milk or balm in the winter months as my skin becomes drier. I find milk or balms more hydrating and soothing for the skin. ⁠ ⁠ My go-to right now is BIOLOGIQUE RECHERCHE - Lait Vip O2 Oxygenating Milk Cleanser paired with either the mini glove Biologique Recherche or the Luna Cleaning tool FOREO - LUNA Mini 2 Facial Cleansing Brush Fuchsia to aid deeper cleaning and increase blood circulation while massaging the skin.⁠ ⁠ Try not to skip cleansing at night no matter how sleepy you are, sleeping with your makeup on goes far beyond clogged pores. Sleeping with your makeup on in the long term will prematurely age your skin due to the breakdown of collagen from environmental pollutants left on the skin.⁠ ⁠ Always cleanse your skin twice at night. Double cleansing is key in removing makeup and sunscreen effectively.⁠ Makeup and sunscreen are designed to stick to the skin, and one cleanse just not going to cut it.⁠ ⁠ Use colder water, never hot water to cleanse your skin. Heat is not your skin's friend; it can cause tewl (transepidermal water loss), lead to irritation, dehydration and sensitivity.⁠ ⁠ Avoid cleansing the skin in the shower, the water is generally too hot, and the shower's pressure can lead to burst vessels.⁠ ⁠ Pat dry, do not aggressively rub your skin with a towel - I hear too many times people rub their skin aggressively with a dry face cloth to exfoliate the skin - stop it. Be gentle with your skin; there are better ways to exfoliate your skin - trust me.⁠ ⁠ Which moves me on to P50 lotions BIOLOGIQUE RECHERCHE - LOTION P50 PIGM 400 Follow your cleansing routine with the correct P50 lotion for your skin type. ⁠ P50 lotion is a gentle but effective way to exfoliate, hydrate the skin while maintaining the skin's Ph and respecting its barrier function. ⁠ My go-to P50 right now is Pig400 which also targets hyperpigmentation concerns.⁠ ⁠ More tips and tricks on cleansing the skin below https://www.kimberlydematos.com/post/the-art-of-cleansing ⁠ Dm for p50 recommendations.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Let’s simplify what it means when a hairstylist says to blow dry down the hair cuticle: When you think of your hair, think of the shingles on a roof. They’re all laying down but on top of each other. The cuticle of our hair is doing the same! When we blow dry up or at the hair cuticle, it causes all those little shingles to stand up- causing frizz, loss of moisture, and hair damage. When we blow dry down the hair cuticle, all the shingles can lay flat against each other and be the protective barrier that they’re supposed to be. If you’re having trouble with extra frizz or loss of moisture pay attention to the direction that your blow drying. This could make all the difference!

This routine has really helped put a halt on the heavy formation of hyperpigmentation! I have to admit, I’m a guilty pimple popper 😬 I HATE seeing them on my face and i know a pimple patch or spot treatment would be best but the anxiety in me will literally not let me stop thinking about a pimple the moment it pops up on my face 😭 overall with this routine I’ve noticed my skin dullness completely disappear and my skin is looking so much more plump and hydrated lately! I get pretty frequent acne but this is about the clearest my skin has looked in a really long time. I’m very wary when adding tools to my skincare routine but this Venus device is so dope! It has 4 different LED light settings (purple, green, red, blue) to combat different skin issues, it heats up and vibrates to really help stimulate the skin and for better product absorption. My favorite part is the fact that there’s a GREEN light option which is known to help with uneven tone (a godsend). With that and the addition of EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) to tone and tighten face muscles to keep us looking snatched and plump! This little machine does it all! Here’s to clearer skin and working on ourselves in 2021 🔥 I still also use the SAND&SKY - Australian Emu Apple Super Bounce Mask weekly to help keep my skin hydrated and to soften up those dark spots as well ☺️ slurp - Niacid Murad - Nutrient-Charged Water Gel TATCHA - The Essence Plumping Skin Softener MDNA SKIN - MDNA SKIN The Eye Serum #SKIIN co - Venus tool[products]#[FiveStars] TATCHA - The Rice Wash Skin-Softening Cleanser

This is the FINISHING TOUCH FLAWLESS - Flawless Legs Instant and Painless Ladies Hair Remover I’ll start by saying I love it! It works sooo well and it really does a great job at removing hair. It’s completely painless and rechargeable so you don’t have to worry about batteries. It gave me a pretty clean finish and my legs were pretty smooth. It’s great to have on-the-go for those days when you forget to shave! 🪒 If you swipe through the pictures, I have before and after photos of my legs 😊 *I do not recommend this for hair in the armpit region or any where else besides the arms and legs*
