You may be surprised to know that it’s very important to have a solid daily skin care regimen for your beautiful black skin. This does not necessarily mean that you need to splurge on costly facial care treatments but it does mean that you should have quality products that you use on your face. Did you know that a simple cleansing and moisturizing routine will work wonders in keeping your African American skin looking young? It’s true! These simple tips are exactly what you need to know to care for your black skin daily and achieve great results.

• First, make sure that you have the proper cleanser for your skin type. Many but not all women of color deal with oily skin on a daily basis, so it’s best to use a cleanser that may have glycolic acid in it that will work to remove oil from the surface of your face, while still keeping your skin feeling soft.
• Next, make sure that you are washing your face on a daily basis with warm water, not too hot or too cold. If you’re using scalding hot water to wash your face when you cleanse, then it will definitely strip your face of the essential oils that should be there to protect your face from damage. Once this moisture barrier is disrupted by elements like water that is too hot, you will notice that your face is much more likely to be dry, breakout, or feel sensitive.
• It’s also a great option in your black skin care products to start using a toner. This is especially helpful if you have an oilier skin type because it works to remove extra dead cells and dirt that accumulated throughout the day, while keeping your oil production under control. There are many different choices in toners in black skin care products, so read the ingredient labels carefully to choose one that will be great for controlling oil, if you are an oilier skin type. To protect your skin, if your skin happens to be sensitive or dry using a toner, will bring your pH level back into balance.
• Another tip to remember is to treat your neck area the same as you would your face, which is something that is so often neglected by women. If you care for your face on a daily basis, but you forget to care for your neck, then you will notice that it will start showing signs of age over time, while your face is still looking young. This is something you definitely don’t want to happen!

Black skin care is something that is incredibly easy to do. When done on a daily basis, you’ll get the results that you are looking for with your skin!
