The Usual Skin Care Worries You Can Have During a Home Stay

It's been months since many were compelled to stay home due to the COVID-19 fears. 


Prolonged homestay can naturally bring  some skin care concerns for a woman. And this is where skincare must come in. These can include:

  • Dry hair
  • Enlarged pores
  • Dull skin


Based on my experience, my anti-ageing efforts can be affected by the lack of availability of skincare products in usual stores.

Since most consumers are also limping on their budget, sales can be low and hence the grocery shelves and usual places where one frequents to hunt for skincare items may not be as stocked up with one's favorites. 


Simply put it, the products can be limited to essentials.


But as a consumer, products that care for one's overall appearance is still a must have. 


Stock up or get in tiny bottles, your skincare hygiene must not be forgotten all the more as you age. 


Yes, skincare must not be forgotten.


So, here are some reminders for women who decide to stay home instead and minimize their outdoor activities during the COVID-19 concerns:


MAKE SURE YOUR PRODUCTS HAVE MANY USES.

To save up on buying, you can go for multi-purpose products like a serum that can act as a skin moisturizer and as a hair sheen, or a makeup primer in case you would have to go out for an important trip to the grocery.


STOCK UP ON PERSONAL VANITY ITEMS FROM TISSUE TO WOMEN CARE ITEMS.


This can save a lot of discomfort. 


Convenience stores and malls can be open but your favorite brands of vanity products from bath to face cleansers may not be available. 


Cleansing is a must and a basic for skin care.  Despite of whatever home situation or social distancing measures you adhere to, one must always have his/ her trusted skin cleansers around the home.


AROMATHERAPY OIL CAN ASSURE RELAXATION DURING STRESSFUL DAYS. 


It is better to have an aromatherapy oil within one's reach just in case one's favorite spa or salon is not open to treat your muscle pains or discomfort. Because having to stay home and away from your work does not mean no stress at all. It can go the other way especially when your home routine becomes more busy than usual. 


So get that favorite scent of your aromatherapy oil and take that much needed break.


When one's self-care during COVID-19 steps up, one's beauty routine must not be swept to the sides of un-priorities.
