At Izi Salon, we believe glowing skin is achievable with a consistent skincare routine tailored to your needs. Whether you’re battling dryness, oiliness, or sensitivity, these five essential skincare tips will help you achieve a radiant complexion that turns heads.

1. Cleanse Twice Daily

Cleansing is the cornerstone of any skincare routine. Use a gentle, sulfate-free cleanser in the morning to remove overnight oils and prep your skin for moisturizer and sunscreen. At night, cleanse to remove makeup, dirt, and pollutants. For oily skin, opt for a gel-based cleanser, while cream cleansers work wonders for dry skin. Spend at least 60 seconds massaging the cleanser into your skin to ensure a thorough clean without stripping natural oils.

2. Exfoliate Weekly

Exfoliation removes dead skin cells that can clog pores and dull your complexion. Use a chemical exfoliant with AHAs (like glycolic acid) or BHAs (like salicylic acid) 1-2 times a week, depending on your skin’s sensitivity. Avoid harsh physical scrubs, as they can cause micro-tears. At Izi Salon, our estheticians recommend starting with a low concentration and gradually increasing frequency to avoid irritation.

3. Hydrate with the Right Moisturizer

Moisturizing is non-negotiable, even for oily skin types. Choose a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer for oily or acne-prone skin, and a richer cream for dry or mature skin. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, or glycerin to lock in hydration. Apply immediately after cleansing to seal in moisture and create a protective barrier.

4. Always Wear Sunscreen

UV rays are the leading cause of premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and skin damage. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every morning, even on cloudy days. Mineral sunscreens with zinc oxide are ideal for sensitive skin, while chemical sunscreens offer a lightweight feel. Reapply every two hours if you’re outdoors for extended periods.

5. Incorporate Antioxidants

Antioxidants like vitamin C, niacinamide, or green tea extract protect your skin from environmental stressors like pollution and free radicals. A vitamin C serum applied in the morning can brighten your complexion and fade dark spots over time. Follow with sunscreen to maximize protection. At Izi Salon, we offer personalized skincare consultations to help you select the right antioxidant products for your skin type.
