But, guess what? You dont have to worry about navigating through countless skincare products or feel the pinch in your pocket to find a suitable match for your skin. Things are about to get simplified and better with PONDS CSMS routine crafted to address various skin concerns and provide lasting effects. So, are you excited to unlock some amazing brighter and clearer skin care tips with PONDS? If yes, then lets hop right into it!
What is the POND'S CSMS Routine?
The term CSMS skincare routine might sound foreign or overwhelming to you, but it is just the abbreviation of a skincare routine that stands for Cleanser, Serum, Moisturiser, and Sunscreen, the four most basic yet highly effective skincare products that form the backbone of a simple but effective skincare regimen. What makes this skincare routine stand out is it is easily adaptable and suitable for most skin types.
Whether you are dealing with skin dullness, pigmentation, acne scars, or dark spots, PONDS CSMS Skincare Routine offers the best solution to cater to all your unique skin concerns and needs. The best part is this skincare routine fits seamlessly even into your busiest lifestyle, delivering exceptional results without demanding too much of your time.
The skincare routine starts with cleansing impurities from your skin, then using serum as the second step to treat specific skin concerns, followed by skin hydration, and wrapping up the routine with sun protection. Let us look at the right way of incorporating this routine into your everyday skin nourishment and care.
1. Cleanser: The Foundation for Healthy Skin
The best way to kickstart your skincare routine is by giving it a refreshing start, free from accumulated dust, dirt, and impurities. With everyday exposure to harmful UV rays, sun, environmental stressors, and pollution, your skin endures more than you can imagine. Generally, pollution particles are smaller than the pores of your skin and can easily accumulate over time making your skin dull and lifeless. Using a detox face cleanser like PONDS Bright Miracle Detox Face Wash With 10X power of charcoal removes stubborn dirt particles, impurities, and pollution from your skin without stripping away natural oils.
Splash some water on your skin, squeeze a small amount of this face wash on your palms, and rub it gently to create lather. Massage the face wash on your skin for a minute and rinse it with water. Take a soft cloth to gently pat dry your face, revealing clearer and brighter-looking skin.
2. Serum: Targeted Treatment for Skin Issues
The next step in this routine introduces your skin to the powerhouse of all skincare products, a face serum which is designed to address specific skin concerns. Packed with highly concentrated active ingredients, PONDS face serums go 10 layers deep into your skin to treat various skin concerns right from the root.
If you are dealing with active pigmentation, dark spots, and dullness, then consider including Niacinamide and Glutathione Precursor-based face serums like PONDS Anti-Pigmentation Serum With 12% Gluta-Niacinamide Complex which works like magic in healing these skin problems. This lightweight and quick-absorbing face serum penetrates deep into your skin to inhibit the excessive spreading and production of melanin present in your skin which is responsible for skin concerns like pigmentation and dark spots.
Take a few drops of this serum on your freshly washed skin and spread it evenly using your fingertips. Avoid touching your skin for a few minutes, allow the product to settle down in your skin.
3. Moisturiser: Balancing Hydration and Care
For any skincare product to be effective on your skin, it needs hydration and moisturisation. As your skin tends to naturally lose its moisture and hydration properties, adding a hydrating and nourishing moisturiser to your routine can make all the difference. Meet PONDS Bright Beauty VIT C+E+A Gel Creme that gives your skin a much-needed boost of hydration and vitamins in one product. Packed with three potent vitamins, this gel creme helps reduce blemishes and dark spots, and enhances skin clarity after every application.
Once the serum is settled on your skin, take a scoop of this gel creme and apply it in dots all across your face. Use your fingertips to evenly spread the creme on your face and leave it for a few minutes.
4. Sunscreen: Protection Against Sun Damage
This might be surprising to hear, but all your efforts might go in vain if you often skip wearing sunscreen before stepping outdoors. This is because the harmful UV rays have the potential to penetrate deep into your skin and cause various problems such as tanning, pigmentation, dryness, dullness, and more. A broad-spectrum sunscreen like PONDS Sun Miracle SPF 50 PA+++ Creme Gel Sunscreen With Hyaluronic Acid helps protect and hydrate your skin throughout the day.
With the presence of hyaluronic acid, this sunscreen can keep your skin hydrated and nourished even when exposed to harsh UV rays. Wrap your skincare routine by squeezing two strips of this sunscreen on your index and middle finger and applying it all over your face and neck. Consider taking more sunscreen if needed to cover the rest of your face and neck.
Conclusion
And, that is all it takes to complete the four-step PONDS CSMS Routine for healthy, radiant, and happy-looking skin. You can continue with your everyday make-up routine or just apply PONDS BB cream to look your absolute best, no matter where you go!
With this simple four-step PONDS CSMS Skincare Routine, you dont have to worry about squeezing extra time into your hectic schedule or the not-so-pleasant greasy appearance that most skincare products leave behind. Wear your best outfits, feel confident, and you are all set to conquer your day!
