Here’s Every Reason Why You Should Extend Your Facial Skincare to Body Care

We often shower our faces with care, yet the rest of our skin—our body’s largest organ—rarely gets the same attention. Definitely, your entire body deserves the same love and care you give your face. Extending your skincare regimen to your body isn’t just about looking radiant; it’s about feeling confident and comfortable in your skin. 

Here’s why taking the extra steps to pamper your body is absolutely worth it. Apart from tips you can already do at the comfort of your own home, I'll also share professional skincare treatments you can totally try right now.

Why Total Body Care Matters

The simplest yet the most crucial step in taking care of your body is to keep your skin hydrated. A rich body lotion or cream with certain hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, shea butter, or ceramides can help replenish moisture and reinforce the natural barrier of your skin.

Apart from that, you have to exfoliate. It will help you reveal smoother, softer skin and improve the efficacy of the other skincare products you apply to your body.

Last but not least, apply sun protection. Areas like your neck, arms, and hands are always exposed to sunlight, so adding SPF to your routine is a must to keep your skin looking youthful and fresh.

Addressing Neglected Areas

Certain parts of our body may not receive the attention that they deserve. For instance, the skin in your neck and chest is quite thinner and more delicate, so it would be beneficial to apply serums, moisturizers, and sunscreen to these areas to help keep them firm and smooth.

Elbows, knees, and heels often face dryness and aging due to constant friction, but regular exfoliation and a nourishing cream can keep them soft. Hands, which are exposed to frequent washing and harsh elements, benefit from a daytime SPF hand cream and a rich nighttime hydrator.

Your back is also often neglected as it is difficult to reach, so it can be prone to rough texture and acne (or should we say, bacne). Use a soft back scrubber to gently apply exfoliating cleansers or toners to your back for a smooth, even application.

Aesthetic Treatments You Can Try

• Carbon Laser Treatment - If your concern is dull skin, uneven skin tone, and trouble spots all over your body, then this skin treatment is worth a try. It's a procedure that combines that deep-cleansing effect of activated carbon and the rejuvenating benefit of laser. They work in complete synergy to get rid of impurities and stimulate collagen production. It’s non-invasive, so whether you’re a beginner in getting aesthetic treatments or not, this should be a great option for you.

• Diamond Peel - If you’re struggling with rough, patchy skin, then it only means that your body is in need of exfoliation. This is exactly what diamond peel does for your skin — it gently exfoliates by removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. You can easily notice smoother skin right after the session. It’s also non-invasive, painless, and there’s no downtime for this one as well.

Simple Tips to Build a Full-Body Skincare Routine

Building a full-body skincare routine doesn’t have to be time-consuming and complicated. Check out these straightforward steps:

1. Cleanse thoroughly. Use a hydrating or exfoliating body cleanser while showering to help refresh and prep your skin

2. Lock in moisture. Apply a gentle body lotion or cream while your skin is still slightly damp. This will help lock in the hydration and prevent dryness.

3. Never skip SPF. Protect your arms, neck, and chest with a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, especially if you are always outdoors and exposed to sunlight.

4. Exfoliate weekly. Scrub your body using a gently formulated body scrub and exfoliating gloves. This will assist you in removing dead skin cells and smooth out those rough patches.

5. Target specific concerns with advanced and professional body treatments:

• Firm and tone with Radio Frequency (RF). This treatment can help tighten the skin and improve elasticity over time.

• Rejuvenate with Carbon Laser. Ideal for deep cleansing and skin revitalization, this treatment helps improve texture and tone.

• Brighten with Diamond Peel. If dullness is a concern, this treatment can smooth the skin’s surface and restore a natural glow.

6. Strictly adhere to a schedule. Align your body care with your facial skincare habits! Doing so will help you create an easy-to-follow routine.
