Fresh, healthy skin tip #1: Give your face its own cleansing routine

Fresh, healthy skin tip #1: Give your face its own cleansing routine

by Jennifer McKinley, Founder, COR Silver Skincare

Here's an oh-so-simple tip to help you put your best face forward:

Clean your face with a cleanser that's actually made for your face! Facial skin is more delicate than the skin on most of your body. It's also most consistently subjected to sun and wind that can cause damage over time. And of course your face does a lot of smiling, laughing, crying, talking — a lot of good expressive 'exercise' that is all part of life, but it does tax that delicate skin over time.

So your face needs a little more TLC (tenderness, love, and care). Harsh soaps? Astringents and drying acids? No thank you. Pick something that cleans gently while restoring moisture and vitamins.

You do this whether you clean your face in the shower or bath, or make it a completely separate process. And it doesn't have to take loads of time, or loads of different products.

See "How to clean your face" for our simple step-by-step guide to caring for your skin using COR Silver Soap, which is based on colloidal silver.
