The most popular day creams for normal and combination skin

You can achieve flawless facial skin with proper regular care, which includes using a daily moisturizer. A competent combination of cosmetics made from natural ingredients will make your skin radiant, well-groomed and rich in beneficial microelements and vitamins. The main feature of the daytime product is abundant hydration of the deep layers of tissue cells. The skin can be affected by: stress, air pollution, sudden temperature changes, bad habits. Day cream is ideal for skin condition. Strengthens protective functions, smooths out small expression wrinkles, gives elasticity, fights peeling and dryness.

Choosing a day cream for normal and combination skin


  1. "Summer" cream. The consistency should be light (emulsions, light creams, gels). Considering the strong influence of sunlight in the summer season, you should purchase a cream that contains sunscreen UV filters. This is especially true for the first weeks of summer - for skin that has become weaned from the sun over the winter, ultraviolet radiation becomes a strong stressor. We must not forget about the need for hylauronic acid in the cream - it will protect the skin from moisture loss, as well as the presence of moisturizing components and vitamins (they provide additional energy and protect against the effects of heavy metals).

  2. "Winter" cream. Skin under the influence of frost changes its properties: oily skin becomes combination skin, combination skin, in turn, normal skin, etc. Therefore, the best creams for winter are those with a fatty base.
  3. Cream for young skin. This cream, first of all, should be distinguished by the absence of components designed to fight wrinkles. That is, young skin does not require a lifting effect. Until the age of thirty, the skin is able to independently produce substances that ensure its elasticity. A cream with a lifting effect leads to “laziness” of the skin, which begins to receive the necessary components from the outside, ceasing to synthesize them on its own. The main components needed in creams for young skin are fruit acids.

Complete care for normal skin

Korean women believe that toner and cream alone are not enough for healthy and beautiful skin. Korean care for normal skin involves the use of a full arsenal of products: essence, serum or ampoule, emulsion, various peelings and masks for normal facial skin.

Care regimen for normal skin

Reviews of the Clean Line day cream:

— I don’t like writing reviews, but I decided to overcome myself, because the product is really very good. In general, I don’t use our cosmetics as a matter of principle; I usually buy imported and very expensive ones. Moreover, since you have problem skin, it’s scary to experiment with cheap cosmetics. But... I read about women’s enthusiasm for the Clean Line, and decided to take a risk. The cream turned out to be simply wonderful. Lightweight, non-sticky, pleasant and unobtrusive smell. Moisturizes perfectly. It feels like I washed my face with cool water. There is no feeling of tightness, no peeling. I use it all the time now.

— Cream at a very low price and with very high efficiency. Previously, I took Nivea, Garnier, black pearls and... well, I tried everything. One dries out, after another there is an allergy, on the third there are acne, etc. I bought the Clean Line just to have it.)) I was shocked! The skin is just great. Moisturized, smooth, acne gone, I recommend it to everyone! Don't look at the price, the cream is excellent.

- Just a thousand points for this cream! Awesome new product from Vichy. My skin has become wonderful, I can’t stop looking at myself. Although it is usually a problem for me - enlarged pores, allergies... Now, after the cream, all the pimples have disappeared, the skin has become soft, light, healthy. I'm not interested in the composition - the main thing is that I'm delighted.)) The cream works!

— The cream is light, not greasy, and has a very pleasant smell. Moisturizing and absorption are at the level. Lightens the skin, smoothes out unevenness. Surprised is an understatement. The result is beyond expectations, I just can’t believe my eyes! Now I can go outside without any foundation and look at myself in the mirror in the morning with real pleasure.)) Super!

Correct application technique

Moisturizing hand cream

The effect of using cosmetic care products directly depends on the correct application technique. The main condition is the preparation of the skin:

  • make-up remover, thorough cleansing;
  • toning, in which case the cream should be applied to skin slightly damp from tonic;
  • driving in the cream with light tapping movements of the fingertips along the massage lines, without friction.

The cream is used 15 minutes before makeup and 30-60 minutes before going outside. Apply the product at least half an hour before going to bed. This way it has time to be absorbed and have its beneficial effect. A woman needs two types of cream: moisturizing and nourishing. The order of their use will differ, since the effect of the compositions depends on the air temperature:

  • above +7 degrees – the skin is moisturized in the morning and nourished in the evening.
  • below +7 degrees – hydration is required in the evening, nutrition in the morning.

Interesting. For one use of the product, a couple of pea-sized drops are enough.

How to make cream with your own hands

Store-bought face creams contain preservatives and synthetic substances, so some women experience irritation and allergies to them. It’s especially a shame if the product is not cheap.

An alternative to them can be creams made independently from available products. Their advantages:

  • natural composition;
  • low cost;
  • always fresh product;
  • ability to select components.

To prepare the cream, you will need non-metallic containers, whisks or spatulas. The composition of the product depends on the skin type and the desired result.

Recipe No. 1

For dry, dehydrated skin, a cream made from cocoa butter, which is sold in any pharmacy, is suitable. Compound:

  • grape seed oil - 1 tsp;
  • retinol - 1 capsule;
  • cocoa butter - 1 package (10 grams).

The last ingredient must be placed in a ceramic bowl and melted in a water bath. After this, add the remaining ingredients and beat with a plastic spatula until completely cooled.

Recipe No. 2

For oily and problematic skin, you need a cream that will dry, cleanse and accelerate the healing of damage. To prepare this product at home you will need:

  • olive, cottonseed or rice oil - 10 ml;
  • salicylic acid - 1 ml;
  • tea tree oil - 3-5 drops.

All components are mixed in a dark glass bottle. After morning cleansing, apply the product with a cotton pad or distribute with clean hands.

Recipe No. 3

For skin with signs of aging, it is recommended to use a cream that contains:

  • glycerin - 1 bottle (50 ml);
  • gelatin - half a tsp;
  • honey - 35 ml (heaped tablespoon);
  • still mineral water - 50 ml;
  • citric acid - 1 gram.

Pour the gelatin with mineral water, after swelling, place in a water bath and carefully add the remaining ingredients, constantly stirring the mass. Once the cream is smooth, remove from heat and continue whisking until it reaches room temperature.

Recipe No. 4

You can improve your complexion, lighten freckles and age spots with this simple remedy.

Compound:

  • natural yogurt - 2 level teaspoons;
  • peach oil - 5 ml;
  • tooth powder or white clay - 5 grams.

Combine all ingredients, mix thoroughly, apply in a thin layer in the morning. This cream mattifies, and with constant use improves the color and condition of the skin.

Useful tips

Despite the natural composition, improper use and preparation of homemade creams can cause unwanted reactions.

Recommendations on how to avoid this:

  1. Follow the recipe exactly. You should be especially careful with acids and essential oils. An increase in their number can cause irritation and burns.
  2. Store homemade cream in the refrigerator in an airtight glass or ceramic container for no more than 2 weeks.
  3. Before first use, be sure to perform a tolerance test on your wrist or elbow.
