Buying a skin care product is not easy, on the contrary it is a long "research" process that many people avoid. Information can sometimes be contradictory, so in the following we have prepared a guide to what you need to know before buying a product.
Step # 1- Discovering Your Purpose
1 - Skin type: Before you buy a product, you need to know if your skin is oily, normal, dry or combination. If you are unsure how to distinguish it, read this article.
2 - Skin problems: Do you have acne prone skin? Do you get acne? Are you allergic? Does it irritate quickly? These are factors you need to know before choosing a product, because certain ingredients can cause problems, but we will talk about that later.
Step Two: Search for the product
1 - Type: Depending on the type of skin and problems that the skin may display, you need to choose what type of texture is best for you. We are saying, oily compounds are not advised for people with oily skin because it blocks the pores.
2 - Ratings: Read other people's ratings for a certain product. The fact that it can be trendy and / or expensive does not necessarily make it better. There are cheaper products, which work the same or better than an expensive product. Online ratings help you to create a clearer picture.
Step Three: Evaluate the product
1 - Ingredients: More than the brand, the ingredients matter. Pay attention to their turn. They are generally ranked from ingredients with more concentration to those with less. So if any dangerous ingredient is listed first, you should know that the product is not worth it. If you have knowledge of Latin, how good for you. Instead, use InciDecoder to read more about each component.

1.ç – Përbërësit e vlerësuar: glycerin, ceramides, hyaluronic acid, ascorbic acid (vitamina C), tocopherol (vitamina E), retinol, niacinamide (vitamina B3).
2 – (opsional): Nëse nuk jeni të bindur dhe keni frikë se një produkt mund të mos bëjë për ju, merrni thjesht një tester. Mos e përdorni direkt në fytyrë, po në një zonë tjetër (dorë ose qafë)
Step 4: Consult your dermatologist, pharmacist, or someone you trust for skin care products.
Note that:
a - If it is a great product for many people, it does not necessarily apply to you.
b - If it is expensive, it is not necessarily better.
c - Natural products are not necessarily better.
ç - You do not have to buy products from the same brand, but you can mix them. A certain brand, we say, has a very good cleanser for the skin, but the sunscreen does not stay well on your face.
