The skin cycle is the natural renewal process of our skin. This process is important for everyone's skin to look healthy and vibrant. However, some factors can disrupt the skin cycle and cause various problems on our skin. In this content, we will cover everything you need to know about the skin cycle and share the skin cycle steps with you. Let's get started!
What is the Skin Cycle?
The skin cycle is the process of our skin renewing itself and going through a series of phases as it renews itself. This process is very important for maintaining a healthy, bright and youthful appearance of the skin. Our skin is constantly renewed due to the environmental factors we are exposed to every day. The skin cycle process plays a critical role in the renewal and health of our skin. Skin cells form, mature and die. As new cells move from the underlying skin layer to the surface, dead cells are shed from the surface. This process is the foundation of healthy skin and gives your skin its shine and vitality.

Skin Cycle Duration
The skin cycle time can vary from person to person, but it is usually 28 days. This period can vary depending on age, skin type, lifestyle and other factors. For example, older people may have a longer skin cycle time. So what happens when the skin cycle is disrupted? When the skin cycle is disrupted, various problems can occur on your skin. For example, dryness, acne, blackheads, wrinkles and discoloration can occur on the skin. Therefore, you should support the skin cycle to keep your skin healthy.
Things You Can Do to Support Your Skin Cycle
To support the skin cycle, you should cleanse your skin regularly, remove dead skin cells, moisturize and protect it from the sun. You can also improve your skin health by eating a healthy diet and exercising. In addition, paying attention to your sleep patterns and practicing relaxation techniques in stressful situations will also support the skin cycle.
Skin Cycle Steps
To support our natural skin cycle, we enter a 4-day skin care cycle by applying our skin care only at night.
Night 1: Peeling
We start our Skin Cycling cycle by cleansing our skin from dead skin. In this way, we ensure that the products we will use later penetrate deeper into our skin. After cleansing our skin with a cleanser suitable for our skin type, we apply a revitalizing and skin tone equalizing We apply AHA Peeling Serum or Fruit Enzyme Powder Exfoliator & Peeling and moisturize our skin.
For this step, we should prefer chemical peeling instead of exfoliating with particles that may cause micro scratches on our face.
Night 2: Retinol
Retinol, a derivative of vitamin A, promotes skin cell renewal, improves skin elasticity and helps reduce wrinkles. At this stage of our skin cycle, after cleansing our skin, we apply Vita-A Rejuvenating Retinol Serum and moisturize our skin.
Retinol serum is a powerful ingredient that can cause skin sensitivity, so it should be used with caution.
Nights 3 and 4: Give Your Skin a Rest
On the 3rd and 4th nights of our skin cycle, we rest our tired skin with moisturizers and saturate our skin with moisture. First, clean skin Intensive Hydration Serum after 15 minutes We apply Hydration Booster Cream . You can leave your skin slightly damp before using moisturizer.
Day 5: Start Over
On day 5, we go back to the beginning of our Skin Cycling routine.
Let's not neglect to use our sunscreen every day, as the peeling and retinol we use will make our skin sensitive.
