There’s taking care of your skin, and then there’s ‘really’ taking good care of your skin, to the point of having a skincare guide. Most of us simply take care of our skin, and so far, we have managed to get away with it. I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with taking care of your skin, all I’m saying is that you need to really keep a close eye on that skin if you want to have fewer problems in the future. And the best time to start doing this is in your 20s; but hey, it’s never too late. Have you ever wondered why some people, especially celebrities like Gabriel Union seem to age backward? It’s all about having a good skincare routine.
I’m sure you’re wondering why I’m yapping about skincare and having a skincare guide. Well, it’s because I came across Skin Republic Masks, and their ultimate skin care guide for your 20s, which kind of intrigued me. But if you’re already past this age, don’t fret because you can still follow it and watch your skin glow, or check out how to take care of your skin in your 40s.

The 3-Step Skincare Guide for Your 20s
Step 1: Purify
It’s important to establish a skincare routine while you’re in your 20s to find out what works for your skin and to help prevent skin issues later in life. Purifying skin’s pores should be the first step of your skincare regime. Products which deeply clean pores and clear out dirt and oil are ideal.
Skin Republic’s Bubble Purifying+ Charcoal Face Mask Sheet seems to be an ideal purifying mask. It begins to bubble and foam when exposed to air and the tiny micro-bubbles dive deep into the skin’s pores removing dirt and oil and helping prevent blackheads and pimples. Fruit acids in the formulation gently exfoliate leaving your skin looking bright and fresh.

Step 2: Hydrate
The second step in this 20s skincare guide is all about hydration (yes, even if you have oily skin). Skin that is hydrated absorbs skincare ingredients more efficiently – meaning your current products work harder at giving you great skin. Hydrated skin also holds on to make-up for longer helping you look flawless all day, and finally, well-hydrated skin stays youthful for longer.
Step 3: Targeted treatments
The final step is targeted treatments. Whether you are starting to see the signs of dryness, pigmentation, dark spots, or breakouts, it’s important to start using products that address these concerns specifically.
A brightening vitamin C face mask can reduce pigmentation and dark spots helping to even your skin tone. Try Skin Republic’s Hyaluronic Acid +Collagen Face Mask which is a perfect fit for dry skin while the Spots + Blemish Face Mask containing tea tree and salicylic acid can bring breakouts to a stop.

Key Ingredients for your 20s Skincare Guide
Choosing the right skincare ingredients for your skin type is key in maintaining healthy and youthful skin as you get older.
Vitamin C: This is a skincare staple no matter your age. It helps brighten dull skin, reduce sun spots, freckles, and evens skin tone. Vitamin C also helps counteract the negative effects of free radicals.
Charcoal: Charcoal is an excellent skin purifier. It acts as a magnet drawing out dirt, impurities, bacteria, and other microparticles from deep within your skin’s pores. Charcoal also aids in detoxifying and balancing the skin.
Salicylic Acid: A gentle exfoliant, salicylic acid, which should belong in any skincare guide, not only cleans and exfoliates the outer layers of the skin but also within the skin’s pores. This helps existing pimples and breakouts to heal faster and even prevent their return because of the anti-bacterial properties.
That said, what are your go-to skincare guide tips for your age, or any age in that matter?
