Are Many People Confused About Skincare? Survey Reveals Realities of Skincare Routines, Skin Concerns, and Product Choices [1000-Person Survey]

The Basics of Skincare: Three Essential Steps! Skincare refers to the three fundamental routines: "cleansing," "moisturizing," and "protecting." Cleansing the face with a cleanser or face wash, moisturizing with toner or essence, and protecting the skin with lotion or cream. Skincare helps protect the skin from damage caused by dryness and UV rays. Additionally, by removing dirt and keeping the skin clean, it helps prevent skin troubles such as acne and irritation.
