Dermatologist-Approved Skincare Routine

Why Simplicity Wins in Skincare

Healthy skin does not require complicated routines or dozens of products. In fact, overloading your skin can weaken its natural barrier and cause irritation, breakouts, or sensitivity.

Dermatologists consistently recommend simple, targeted routines that support the skin’s natural functions rather than disrupt them.

At ourdermastore, we believe in results-driven skincare—backed by science, not trends.

The 4 Essential Steps of a Healthy Skincare Routine

1. Cleanse (Morning & Night)

Cleansing removes dirt, oil, sweat, sunscreen, and pollutants that accumulate on your skin.

✔ Choose a cleanser based on your skin type

✔ Avoid harsh foaming agents if you have dry or sensitive skin

✔ Cleanse gently—scrubbing damages the skin barrier

A good cleanser prepares your skin to absorb treatments effectively.

2. Treat (Target Your Skin Concern)

This step addresses specific issues like acne, pigmentation, dullness, or ageing.

✔ Use only 1–2 active treatments at a time

✔ Follow dermatologist guidance for actives like retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, or azelaic acid

✔ More actives ≠ faster results

Consistency matters more than product count.

3. Moisturise (Every Skin Type Needs It)

Moisturising helps maintain hydration and strengthens the skin barrier—even for oily or acne-prone skin.

✔ Gel or lotion textures for oily skin

✔ Creams for dry or compromised skin

✔ Barrier-repair ingredients support long-term skin health

Skipping moisturiser can actually increase oil production and sensitivity.

4. Protect (Sunscreen Every Morning)

Sun protection is non-negotiable.

✔ Use broad-spectrum SPF daily

✔ Reapply every 2–3 hours when exposed

✔ Sunscreen prevents pigmentation, ageing, and barrier damage

No skincare routine is complete without sunscreen.

Common Skincare Mistakes to Avoid

• Using too many active ingredients together

• Switching products too frequently

• Following trends without understanding your skin

• Skipping sunscreen indoors or on cloudy days

Healthy skin is built with patience and consistency.
