Basic Skin Care Routine
Rejuvenation
Regimen
101
This
basic skin routine includes the top
three anti-aging treatments which have the most proven
benefit in rejuvenating skin:
- an antioxidant
- a vitamin A (retinol)
- 8% to 12% concentration of glycolic acid
Integrating these three anti-aging ingredients
into a daily skin rejuvenation regime will have the greatest impact in
effectively optimizing the results for the basic skin care routine in a
simple, straightforward manner.

If you feel like a bit of extra pampering or just
want a little fun with some swirling action try one of the home
microdermabrasion spa kits, like the Neutrogena
Advanced Solutions At Home MicroDermabrasion System
which utilizes the same aluminum-oxide crystals that the professional
spa treatments
use.
Once you have established a basic facial rejuvenation regime, then
start to slowly integrate the layering
technique to expand your basic
skin care routine into a more comprehensive strategy.
