Skin care is a vast range of practices that support healthy skin, improve its appearance and alleviate skin disorders. Skin care includes assessment, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of many skin disorders. They may include proper use of emollient, prevention of sun damage and nutrition.

Skin-care routine is often neglected by people due to the fact that they are preoccupied with other aspects of their lives such as their careers and social activities. Skin-care professionals and researchers have however come up with a series of tests and surveys which showed that this practice is necessary. One survey which showed that people are more aware of the need for skin-care routine but not enough of it to follow it. Another survey, which indicated that most people use just one type of product to maintain their skin-quality which means they do not even know the ingredients of some of the products that they use. The best way to deal with this is to have a skin-care regimen which comprises several products made from natural ingredients.

It is very important to choose a product that contains all natural ingredients since they do not have any side effects and are effective in treating skin conditions easily. An example for natural ingredients used in a skin-care routine is emollient. It can also be termed as a skin-conditioner that softens and smoothes the skin. Examples of other ingredients used in skin-care regimen are the antioxidants which eliminate free radicals from the body and are also known to reverse the signs of aging such as wrinkles, fine lines, discoloration and skin aging etc. Vitamin E, Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) are also commonly used for treating many skin-related problems.
