Am I a skincare minimalist?

in The MINIMALISTlast month (edited)

Hello hive friends! This is my first time posting in The minimalist community. I'm interested in this week's #KISS topic which is about skincare. Lately, skincare is quite popular not only among women, but also for men. In addition, skincare users include various groups, from teenagers to adults. Therefore, there are so many new skincare brands that have sprung up and gone viral. Especially in the digital era like now, with many influencers who make new brands quickly recognized by the public. But that is one of the things that is worrying, because these new brands that have not been tested for safety are consumed by the public. Even recently in my country, there was a case of skincare fraud committed by one of the influencers. Sorry if I talked too much which is a bit off topic, hehehe...

Am I a skincare minimalist?

Yes, I think I am a minimalist when it comes to skincare. In fact, I very rarely use skincare. However, that doesn't mean I don't have any skincare products at all. Of course I have some, it's just that I rarely use them especially in the last few months. Actually, I used to use them diligently, but after getting married I rarely use them. But what I still use is facial wash and sunscreen, because I think both are the most mandatory.facial wash to clean it from dirt and also needs sunscreen to protect our face.

In addition to the two products above, there are several products that I use. One type of skincare that I use is toner. As we know, there are many benefits of toner for our skin, such as hydrating the skin and shrinking pores and many more. The brand of toner I use is nacific, because I think it's suitable when I use it.

I usually use a face serum as well. I think facial serum is also important to maintain healthy skin. The ingredients in facial serums vary. I use a face serum that has a rather high niacinamide content. I usually use the same brand as the toner, but since it ran out, I tried a new brand that contains high niacinamide.

Another type of skincare that I use is sleeping mask. I use it rarely, but I really like it. This sleeping mask helps remove dead skin cells and makes my face feel soft after a night of wearing it. The reason why I rarely use it is because I love it and don't want it to run out quickly, Lol. It might sound stingy, but if I love a product then I will economize on it.

The above are some of the types of skincare that I use. Do you think I'm a skincare minimalist? Thank you in advance for reading my post, I feel happy to join this community!

Unlike me that would use just any skin care product before, you are indeed a Minimalist because you know what you need them for before getting them.

I'm sure you look good without putting in too much effort on your skin care product, just do you.

I have sensitive skin, so I only use products that are suitable. Anyway, thanks for stopping by my post!

Hello, welcome to the Minimalist community. I must say I admire your skin. I think sunscreen is really important when it comes to skincare products. It really saves the skin from burns though.

I agree with you! Sunscreen is very important. Thank you for the warm welcome!

Well, with these products you have mentioned, I would say you are a minimalist and keeping it simple. Every lady has what works for them when it comes to skincare products and their skins.

Absolutely, I do like simple things including skincare. Thank you for reading my writing and giving comments!

You are mostly welcome 😊

I'm not keen on products with whitening, but other than that these look pretty good, and it's great that you try to keep a minimal routine without compromising on the health of your skin. I agree that sunscreen is essential, and that brand looks good. I've never seen it before though:)

Hi @millycf1976! How are you?
Hanasui is a local brand, that's why you haven't seen it before. But it's a good sunscreen, the texture is soft and light and most importantly it's not sticky. The main reason I use it is because it suits my skin. Thank you for stopping by!
