But while this mak him feel guilty, he do take serly when he n. The number of steps his route pends on the day’s strs levels and diligence. “For as long as I get the requise cleanse, tone, moisturize, and exfoliatn once a week, I’m good. So that’s 3-4. Sometim, I get tense and add steps wh a mask, sems, and oils,” he shar.</p><p>Cleansg is his favore step. “It’s where you get to slough off a good chunk of the day’s aggrsors. It’s oddly satisfyg seeg the dirt swirl down the dra.” </p><p>He adds, “But my favore and non-negotiable step is drkg water, pecially when you wake up and before gog to bed.

Then I apply sence for that extra boost. This is on good days and when I feel that my sk needs extra moisturizg — pecially after nights out or beach trips,” he shar.</p><p>He sometim an tensely moisturizg night cream. “Only on days I feel I need ! On lazy days, I jt skip the other steps and go wh cleansg and moisturizg and jt pray for good sk,” he adds. <!-- --> is his favore step. “It brgs out the bt me! Chz. I feel like a new person after exfoliatg: h, young, and soft!” He also lov gettg profsnal treatments, like a Honey Almond Facial om time to time.</p><h2>An Anti-Agg Practice</h2><p>Twenty-ne-year-old Paolo Chua has already started practicg an anti-agg skre route for his batn sk.
