When building our skincare routine our decision-making is easily influenced by the hype and trends on social media. Though this is a good way to get a glimpse of the product experience through reviews and feedback from other consumers, a lot of other factors still need to be considered when we are building our skincare routine.
Knowing your skin type, identifying your concerns, and knowing which ingredients will work on these concerns are essential to know which products are worth trying. We’ve listed down some skin care ingredients that will make decision-making a much easier feat.
