I hope you are all well. Today I am participating in the "Cosmetic Products And Skin" Contest organized by @abdullahw2.

What is your go-to skincare routine, and which products do you use regularly.

As a woman, I am very concerned about my skin. I know that not only me but all women are very concerned about their skin. Especially the skin on the face. Also, the skin is the largest organ in the human body. Therefore, we everyone should protect our skin. We should keep it clean. I do many things to protect my skin and the main thing I do is keep my skin clean, use an umbrella when going out to protect it from the sun. Or no go out to work outdoors during sunny days. And I maintain the moisture and color of the skin by using various beauty products. In addition, taking multivitamins.

If we talk about the products I use daily, facewashes, cleanser, toners, scrub, moistures, night creams, body lotion are the beauty products I use regularly. In the last three months, I had to change the beauty products I used before. Because I had acne on my face, the doctor approved several beauty products suitable for it and I am currently using those products and an aloe vera gel. The pictures above show the beauty products I use daily and their brands.

What are the benefits of using these cosmetic products?.

Using beauty products can help maintain the moisture of the skin and provide additional nourishment to the skin. Otherwise, our skin may become cracked or dry. Also, using sunscreens when going out in the sun can prevent damage to the skin caused by sunlight. Direct exposure to excessive sunlight is not advisable. Also, beauty products help maintain our skin color. Even if you are born with fair skin, over time, due to certain reasons, the skin color will fade, and it is quite difficult to protect the skin you were born with without using any beauty products.

Not only by using cosmetic products, but also by using natural treatments, the skin can be well moisturized, nourished, colored and protected. You can choose cosmetic products or natural treatments that suit your skin according to your preference. Also, using cosmetic products that do not suit the skin can damage the skin. Therefore, you should be careful when choosing cosmetic products.

What is the difference between natural cosmetic products and chemical based ones? Which one do you prefer and why.?

The main difference between natural treatments and chemical-based cosmetic products is that we can obtain and use natural things in the that way, that is, in the original form that they are found in nature. For example, we can obtain an aloe vera leaf and use its aloe vera gel in the that way. We can also grind raw turmeric with water and apply it on the face and body. But natural things obtained in this way cannot be stored for a long time. If you keep it in the refrigerator, it can be kept for a maximum of two or three days. Chemical-based cosmetic products are cosmetic products made artificially by adding various chemicals. These can be stored for more than a year and can achieve faster results compared to natural treatments. Also, since there is no need to do any preparation before applying, they can be taken anywhere and are easy to use.

Also, using natural treatments has very few adverse effects on the body and can provide good nutrition to the skin with long-term use. But natural treatments are not without the possibility of allergies. I generally like both of these methods and the reason for this is that natural treatments and chemical based cosmetic products can be used for various skin conditions. Because there are some conditions that can only be eliminated by chemical based cosmetic products. So, I use natural treatments and chemical cosmetic products as appropriate for the situation.

Do you think the regular use of cosmetic products can damage our skin? If yes then share their drawbacks.

Using cosmetic products daily does not harm the body. But when we apply something artificial to the body, the natural texture and PH value of the skin are lost. Then that natural texture changes and it will be compatible with the cosmetic products we apply on the artificial skin. Also, using cosmetic products containing bleaching such as mercury and hydroquinone has adverse effects on the body. Although cosmetic products containing excessive bleaching give quick results, they cause very dangerous conditions for the body. If the cosmetic products used daily are high-quality products with good standards, then using them will not cause adverse effects. You know that there are many high-quality cosmetic product brands in the world today. So we can use such good cosmetic products.
