Basic Skin Care Routine
Rejuvenation Regimen 101

Basic Skin Care Routine 1This 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.


~ Morning ~

Cleanse: Gentle cleansing for oily skin types ~ (other skin types only need to cleanse once a day so non-oily skin types begin the morning routine with toning)

Tone: Apply a skin toner with an antioxidant ingredient ~ choose just one of the following:
Moisturize: Vitamin A retinol, vitamin C and Vitamin E "combination" moisturizer with both UVA and UVB sunscreen protection- DCL Daily Moisture SPF15


~ Evening ~

Cleanse: Gentle Cleansing for all skin types, Aveeno Active Naturals Positively Ageless Cleanser is an excellent soy based anti-aging moisturizing facial cleanser.

Tone: AHA Exfoliating Toner DDF's Glycolic Acid Toner 10%

Moisturize: Vitamin A (retinol) with Vitamins D and E along with Allantoin as a rich "combination" moisturizer Derma E- Vitamin A Retinol Palmitate Complex

TIP ~ Consider substituting the evening AHA exfoliation with a microdermabrasion exfoliating scrub such as Micro Pearl Abrasion once or twice a week and a skin peel Reviva Labs: Light Skin Peels (BHA) once a week.

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.  

Here are some sample regimens to help you get started:
