How do I properly care for my face?

Our facial skin is sensitive, exposed to daily stresses, and often shows our overall health first. With the right care, it stays fresh, healthy, and resilient. But how do you establish an optimal routine? What ingredients does the skin need? And what factors are important depending on skin type, season, and age?

Here you will find the complete overview – with a sample routine for morning and evening, valuable tips and the right products from newkee facial care .

Why facial care is so important

Facial skin is thinner than in many other areas and has hardly any protective reserves. It loses moisture more quickly, reacts sensitively to environmental influences, and ages prematurely. With a tailored skincare routine, you can:

• retain moisture

• Preventing UV damage

• strengthen the skin barrier

• Soothe irritations

• slow down the aging process

The 4 pillars of facial care

1. Cleansing – mild, to remove dirt and sebum.

2. Daytime care – moisture and protection, ideally with integrated SPF.

3. Active ingredients – specifically used ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and niacinamide.

4. Nighttime regeneration – richer care to support the skin's recovery.

Example routine for morning & evening

In the morning

1. Gentle cleansing – removes sweat and residue from the night.

2. Serum – the newkee face serum with hyaluronic acid and niacinamide for moisture and an even complexion.

3. Day cream – the face cream day SPF 15 provides moisture and light protection against UV radiation.

4. Sun protection – the face sunscreen 50+ effectively protects against light-induced skin aging. For the lips: lip balm SPF 30 .

At evening

1. Cleansing – removes makeup, dirt and environmental residues.

2. Serum – again the face serum , to supply the skin with hyaluronic acid and niacinamide overnight.

3. Night cream – the face cream night supports regeneration and provides intensive care.

This gives you a clear, uncomplicated routine that can be easily integrated into everyday life.
