The cornerstones of an effective skin care routine according to Dr. Virginia Sanchez

Rutina diaria cuidado piel

Amidst a sea of products and beauty promises, the Dr. Virginia Sánchez, dermatologistinvites us to simplify our skin care routine. According to the expert, the key is to select the most effective and essential ingredients to keep our skin healthy and radiant, without complicating with unnecessary products. Below, we share a minimalist beauty routine that is easy to follow and accessible to everyone.

Proper cleansing is essential to ensure that the active ingredients we apply can act effectively. Dr. Sanchez stresses that cleansing the skin both in the morning and at night is essential, as during the night the skin renews itself and can accumulate traces of sebum and pollution.

The dermatologist recommends gentle, soap-free cleansers that cleanse deeply without dehydrating the skin. A good cleanser prepares the skin to receive the next products in the routine.

A key step in any skin care routine, according to Dr. Sanchez, is sun protection. No matter the season or the conditions of the day, UV radiation is always present and can damage the skin, causing premature aging and increasing the risk of skin cancer. Dr. Sanchez recommends choosing a sunscreen of broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection, and apply daily as part of your morning routine.

At TUDERMA, we know how important sun protection is, so we offer products that offer high protection without leaving the skin oily or sticky, ideal for daily use, even under makeup.

Pollution and other environmental factors constantly affect our skin. Antioxidants are essential to protect and repair it from this damage. Dr. Sanchez suggests incorporating vitamin C into your morning routine, as it not only brightens the skin, but also fights the effects of pollution and improves skin texture by stimulating collagen production. In addition, a good product with vitamin C + vitamin E helps counteract oxidative stress accelerated by environmental factors.

When night falls, it is the ideal time to focus your routine on cell regeneration. Retinol is one of the most potent active ingredients to combat the signs of aging. Dr. Sánchez explains that retinol stimulates collagen production, improves skin firmness, reduces wrinkles and blemishes, and promotes cell renewal. It is important to introduce it gradually to avoid irritation. Start with sporadic applications, once or twice a week, and increase the frequency as your skin gets used to it.

Dr. Sanchez stresses that immediate results should not be expected. Consistency is the key to seeing real improvements in the skin. Although cosmetics can offer visible results over time, the real transformation is achieved with consistent and prolonged use of the right products.

In addition, the dermatologist points out that, although care products are essential, lifestyle plays a fundamental role in skin health. Maintaining a balanced diet, getting enough sleep, eliminating toxins such as tobacco and alcohol and reducing stress are all factors that contribute to healthier, more radiant skin.
