Skincare Product Efficacy

By Jessie Christensen


Women apply skincare products to maintain skin health and youthful appearances. But, it seems most of these skincare products do not work. There are many reasons for such low efficacy of skincare products and one of them is wrong ways and choices of application.

The first criterion for choosing skincare products is the ingredients. Only the best ingredients provide you the highest efficacy. But, most people do not pay attention to the ingredients of their skincare products. You may read more information on skincare product ingredients from magazine and choose the most suitable ingredients for your skin type.

Effective ingredients alone do not ensure high efficacy. You need to know the concentration of such ingredients also. In general, the higher the concentration of the active ingredients, the higher the efficacy of the skincare products. For example, there is a great difference in efficacy for 0.1% and 0.2% of Vitamin C.

Though you may spend a lot of effort and money on skincare products, you should maintain the proper level of expectation. A lot of people expect their skincare products work like medicines and treatments. In fact, skincare products are mainly for care purpose instead of treatment purpose. Therefore, you should not expect anti-aging cream to remove all your wrinkles and fine lines. In addition, you should expect skincare products work at least 2 weeks from your first application.

It is also important to pay attention to proper application methods of skincare products. For example, you need to wait for around 5 minutes after applying one skincare product. Otherwise, the first layer of skincare products may be covered and removed by the second layer. Such waiting time is also needed for applying makeup.

Finally, you should always follow the instruction on the amount of skincare product to be applied. For example, you may need to apply a generous amount of moisturizer and wash-off mask for noticeable effect. For facial toner, you need to wipe your face with a cotton pad. Besides, you should not apply paper facial mask for more than 15 minutes because moisture from skin may be drawn away.
