Skincare Products for All Skin Types - What to Use, When, and Why

Here's a good question to consider: What is the difference between people who use five different products with no improvement and those who keep it simple, using one or two products and having clear, radiant skin?

This guide will provide you with information about the skincare products for all skin types that can be purchased on PrakritPurity to create a complete skincare regimen, and what you need to know about different products in the PrakritPurity All Skin Types Collection. 

What Makes a Product Work for All Skin Types?

All types of skin require three things: cleanliness without loss of moisture, hydration, and protection from oxidation & harm caused by the environment. In addition, products that contribute to these things have ingredients that are too harsh (sulfates), too irritating (Parabens), too fragrant (synthetic), or too alcohol-based (heavy).

Skincare products for all skin types are built on ingredients that balance: hydrating (glycerin), soothing (turmeric, sandalwood, aloe), and nourishing (Vitamin E, B5). 

Additionally, there are various products in our PrakritPurity All Skin Types Collection (ranging from ₹107 - ₹950) that are paraben-free, dermatologist-recommended, and created for daily use. 

Step 1 - Cleansing: The Foundation of Any Routine

Cleansing is where most people go wrong. A harsh cleanser strips the skin's natural oils, triggering dryness on dry skin and excess oil production on oily skin. A gentle one cleans effectively while leaving the skin's moisture barrier intact.

Bar Soaps - Handmade, Glycerin-Based

Most of the time when we use a cleanser, we won't get the results we want. The harshness of many cleansers will strip your skin of its natural oils, causing dry skin to get even drier, while at the same time, oily skin may produce more oil than it already has. So using a gentle cleanser can provide a more effective clean while keeping your skin's moisture barrier intact.

In the All Skin Types bar soap, there are two bars that really stand out as excellent for your skin type. The first is the Haldi Chandan & Kesar Handmade Glycerin Soap; it combines three classic Ayurvedic ingredients combined with glycerin, which is used to saponify soap. Turmeric has natural antioxidant properties, sandalwood is known for its ability to soothe, calm, and provide relief for irritated skin, and Kesar (or saffron) has always been thought to increase the radiance of the skin. With the use of glycerin, this bar cleanses your skin without leaving you with a feeling of tightness after rinsing.

Secondly, the Vitamin E Handmade Glycerin Soap is a very straightforward soap focused on moisture. Vitamin E is an antioxidant that is able to protect your skin from damage, as well as help the skin feel soft and provide a radiant glow. When combined with glycerin, this is a soap that can be safely used as an everyday soap, even for those with very sensitive skin.

Both bars are made carefully by hand, do not contain any harsh surfactants, and can be used for daily cleansing without any adverse effects. 

For Hair - Also Worth Knowing

The Hair Care Shampoo included in the Collection contains Vitamin B5, a Moisturiser for hair that will nourish dry and damaged hair, promote healthy hair, and reduce breakage. If you are building a hair and skin routine, this is the most versatile option of all the shampoos in this collection.  

Step 2 - Moisturising: Where Hydration Happens

Moisturiser isn't just for dry skin. Moisturiser is used on all skin types, including oily skin. Not using a Moisturiser on the skin will allow water to evaporate from the skin and therefore, the skin will produce oil or feel tight and flaky as a result. 

The Hydrating Moisturiser is the mainstay daily hydrating moisturiser that is organic, paraben-free, and designed for the hydrating skincare routine for dry skin, but can also be used effectively on other skin types; nourishes your skin deeply without adding weight, and promotes luminous skin with regular use.

If fine lines and firmness is an issue Wrinkle Lift Face Cream is the targeted product of the whole range, it reduces the appearance of fine lines and firm up your skin giving it a smoother, younger looking texture; it can be used on all skin types making it one of the more versatile options in this category of best skincare products for all skin types when also looking to achieve anti-ageing properties.

The Nourishing Conditioner is part of the Nourish category of products used to nourish your hair by moisturising and detangling; it reduces frizz and adds shine to your hair, which is a necessary step after each wash. You can add those to your gentle skincare products for sensitive skin.

Step 3 - Treating: Serums That Work at a Deeper Level

Serums are a concentrated product that treats a particular issue (e.g., dullness, uneven skin tone, and blemishes) at a much more profound level than moisturisers do.

Brightening & Lightening Face Serum has been exceptionally formulated with a combination of Neroli Essential Oil and Alpina Root Extract, for the treatment of blemishes, dullness, and uneven skin tone that penetrates the lower layers of the skin for maximum results.  This is the best face serum for healthy, glowing skin in the range for obtaining beautiful, healthy, and radiant skin, whilst being lightweight, absorbing quickly, and suitable for all types of skin, including very sensitive skin types.

Apply 2 to 3 drops onto clean skin before applying your moisturiser. This step will give you the “visible differences” in skin tone and glow in the long term. 

Don't Forget: Lips and the Body

Skincare goes beyond your face; Hydrate your lips naturally with the Watermelon Lip Care - an all-natural lip balm created with watermelon, natural oils & butters that provide hydration, repair & smooth dry or chapped lips for soft & nourished lips all day long. Since lips do not have any oil or sebaceous glands, they rely on external hydration from the outside. Quality lip balm is not a luxury - it's upkeep.

For the body, the All Skin Types range offers a gentle hydrating Secret Blush Body Wash (all skin types) to be used daily! If you like to use all-natural products from head to toe, these will be worth checking out! 

How to Build a Simple Daily Routine Using These Products

A full natural skincare routine for glowing skin doesn't have to be complicated. Here’s how to use the products to achieve this:

AM: 

• Wash your face with either Haldi Chandan Soap or Vitamin E Glycerin Soap.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which skincare products are suitable for all skin types? 

Skincare products made with gentle or balancing ingredients such as glycerin, herbal extracts, Vitamin E, and Vitamin B5 will all work for any skin type. There are 19 skincare products in the PrakritPurity All Skin Types collection - all paraben-free and dermatologically tested - that can be used for any skin type, from cleansing soaps to moisturisers to serums and lip care products. 

What is the best daily skincare routine? 

The best daily skin care routine consists of cleansing your skin with a gentle glycerin soap, moisturizing daily, applying serum 2–3 times a week for specific concerns, and protecting your lips. PrakritPurity’s Haldi Chandan Soap, Hydrating Moisturizer, Brightening Serum, and Watermelon Lip Care products can be included in your routine and are suitable for any type of skin.

How can I keep my skin hydrated naturally? 

Use a gentle glycerin cleanser that won’t strip moisture from your skin, apply a hydrating moisturizer daily, and drink enough water. PrakritPurity’s Hydrating Moisturizer is formulated to provide maximum hydration when performing a hydrating skin care routine for dry skin and is effective on all skin types.

Which serum is best for glowing skin? 

PrakritPurity’s Brightening & Lightening Face Serum with Neroli Essential Oil and Alfalfa Extract is the best option for achieving healthy, glowing skin in this range because it addresses dullness, blemishes, and uneven skin tone without causing a negative impact on sensitive skin.

Are handmade soaps good for skin? 

Handmade soaps, particularly glycerin-based, are an excellent choice to use. Unlike commercial soap products, which contain harsh surfactants, handmade glycerin products such as PrakritPurity’s Haldi Chandan and Vitamin E soaps do not strip the skin of natural oils, provide moisture retention to the skin, and contain plant-derived herb extract or essential oils that are beneficial for your skin without disrupting the natural balance of the skin. 

How often should I use face serum? 

Face Serums can be used for 2 to 3 nights a week to see how the skin reacts, and then slowly change to using once a day. Always remember to use them after you have cleaned your face and before you put on a moisturiser. PrakritPurity's Brightening Serum can be used by everyone regardless of skin type.

Which moisturizer is best for daily use? 

In general, a moisturiser that you would typically want to use whenever you want to have a natural glow on your skin would be a light and hydrating, paraben-free type of moisturiser. The Hydrating Moisturiser from PrakritPurity is an example of a moisturiser that most people would use for this purpose. If you are concerned about the fine lines on your face, you can use PrakritPurity's Wrinkle Lift Face Cream as your daily moisturiser, and it also aids in preventing further ageing of your skin.

What skincare products help improve skin glow? 

To achieve glowy skin, a combination of a brightening serum and maintaining a consistent moisturising regimen will work best to achieve this result. A brightening and lightening serum that you can use on your face will directly address uneven skin tone and dullness, while a hydrating moisturiser will improve the overall health of your skin. Together, these products play an essential role in a natural skincare regimen to obtain glowing skin.
