New skin care trend recommended by dermatologists

Skin streaming is gaining recognition among dermatologists around the world. Experts emphasize that it is not just another fashionable trend, but above all a return to reliable care based on dermatological knowledge. It relies on the effectiveness of dermocosmetics with research-proven effects, which contain active ingredients tailored to specific skin needs. This trend, which began in the United States, has gained notoriety among celebrities and influencers. Not surprisingly, it quickly spread to other countries, including Poland. It is gaining popularity day by day not only among Internet users, but also among Polish dermatologists.

Skin stream care should be based on simple daily habits: cleansing with products adapted to the skin type, using serums with active ingredients that work on various skin problems, moisturizer with a simple composition that rebuilds the hydrolipid barrier and hydrates and regenerates the skin, and UV filter that protects the skin from the sun. From a dermatologist's point of view, it's also a way to help the skin renew and regenerate, argues Agnieszka Bliżanowska, M.D., a dermatologist.

Principles of conscious skin streaming

First - determine the needs of your skin

In skin streaming, it is crucial to use products with research-proven effectiveness, i.e. dermocosmetics that contain active ingredients tailored to the skin's needs. Before you start skin streaming, you need to know that there is no one-size-fits-all cosmetic that will suit every skin's needs, which, after all, sometimes vary. Sometimes the priority becomes strong hydration or strengthening the hydrolipidic barrier. In other cases, it will be to eliminate hyperpigmentation or reduce signs of aging. Only by carefully identifying the needs of the skin will it be possible to choose the optimal products that will provide visible results.

Skin streaming is a trend that involves simplifying skin care. Instead of using a lot of products, the focus is on the quality of the products and matching them to the needs of the skin. And this is key here. Each skin has its own individual needs and requires the right active ingredients. Dry and sensitive skin needs hydration and soothing, skin with blemishes needs brightening and protection, acne-prone skin needs cleansing and regulation. That's why it's important to choose cosmetics for your skin type and condition, rather than going by what works for others. It is important that products contain active ingredients with scientifically proven efficacy," explains Prof. Wioletta Baranska-Rybak, a dermatologist.

Second - do a thorough cleaning!

Instead of accumulating a large number of cosmetics, focus on a smaller number of well-chosen and patent-proven products. Opt for those containing only key ingredients in optimal concentrations. Exclude cosmetics that don't add anything significant to your routine. This not only saves time, but also helps the skin better absorb active ingredients, and reducing the number of cosmetics used will significantly reduce the risk of adverse reactions and irritation.

How to start a skin care routine in the spirit of skin streaming?

For skin streaming to bring the most benefits to the skin, 4 steps are key.

The first step is cleansing the skin, which should be gentle yet thorough. A good solution is a two-step cleansing, which removes all impurities and makeup residue. A cosmetic that perfectly fits into the framework of skin streaming is CeraVe Moisturizing Cleansing Emulsion. This dermocosmetic does not clog pores and is gentle on the skin. It contains three key ceramides that strengthen the skin's natural barrier, moisturizing hyaluronic acid and MVE technology, which ensures gradual delivery of active ingredients throughout the day.

The second step is skin care tailored to your skin's needs. If you have problematic skin you can add to your routine a cosmetic with an active ingredient that will work on a specific ailment.

By reaching for the Restorative Serum with Retinol from CeraVe, you will help your skin to rebuild, making it smoother and making lesions or acne blemishes less visible. If your skin is in need of improved firmness and regeneration, you can reach for HYALU B5 SERUM anti-aging serum from La Roche-Posay. If your affliction is hyperpigmentation use a product that will help in the process of reducing it. Liftactiv Specialist B3 anti-pigmentation serum is also an excellent example. Its highly concentrated formula, which works on different levels of the epidermis, gently exfoliates the skin and affects the reduction of discoloration. In either case, the most important thing will be to choose the right products in the first place.

The third step is moisturizing the skin, which is provided by creams, serums or masks. The moisturizing cream from La Roche-Posay TOLERIANE SENSITIVE soothes the skin and reduces irritation, and contains glycerin, which has moisturizing properties, ceramides, which regenerate the skin, and La Roche-Posay thermal water. It is an ideal product for moisturizing the skin and should be applied twice a day: in the morning and in the evening. This will keep the skin hydrated and prevent it from drying out.

The fourth step is to protect the skin from the sun to prevent hyperpigmentation and accelerated skin aging. For this purpose, a lightweight fluid against signs of photoaging from Vichyz suitably high sunscreen, which will effectively protect it from the harmful effects of UV rays.

To further streamline your daily routine, you can reach for multi-tasking cosmetics, or those that are suitable for both your morning and evening routine.

Can anyone try out skin streaming?

Regardless of your age or the skin problems you face on a daily basis, skin streaming can help anyone achieve the results they dream of. If you have doubts about which products to reach for, or skin problems such as acne, for example, it is worth consulting a dermatologist or cosmetologist, who can help discover the cause of the problems and choose the right care.

There are also tools on the market that can help pre-determine our skin's needs, and without leaving home. An example is Dermo Scan, which analyzes the skin's texture and provides information about its hydration, sebum levels, elasticity and pigmentation.
