What if I told you that healthy skin does not need 10 steps or 12 different products?
Skinimalism has come to demonstrate that simplifying your routine is not only possible, but more effective.
In recent years, Skincare routines increasingly complex have been a reason for discouragement for those interested in having healthy skin. The Skincare Minimalism arises as a logical solution: less products, but better chosen. This approach not only optimizes results, but also respects the health and natural balance of the skin.
Throughout this article you will discover what skinmalism is, what benefits is in the face of other trends, how to apply it step by step and what are the most appropriate products to incorporate this philosophy into your routine.
And if you are already convinced that less is, in the end we recommend some key products that cover everything your skin needs.
What is skinimalism?
Skinimalism - or Skincare Minimalism - is a trend that proposes a simpler, conscious and effective facial care routine. Its objective is to use only essential products, betting on multifunction formulas and high asset concentration.
Skinimalism Definition
In a nutshell, skinmalism consists in applying a minimalist logic to your beauty routine. It means reducing the number of products, avoiding skin saturation and using what really provides value to your skin. It's not about stopping taking care of you, but doing better, with less.
This approach is especially useful if:
-
You have sensitive or reactive skin.
-
You are looking to optimize time and budget.
-
You want to avoid errors of overexposure to incompatible ingredients.
-
It attracts you a more conscious and sustainable lifestyle.
Skinimalism vs. Other facial care trends
For years, we have seen how routines inspired by Korean cosmetics were popularized, with up to 10 or 12 steps. Although these routines can work for some people, in many cases they are unnecessary or even counterproductive.
The maximalist skincare - serum, tonic accumulation, boosters and masks - can cause:
-
Skin asset overload.
-
Compatibility problems between ingredients.
-
Irritation or weakening of the cutaneous barrier.
Skinmalism proposes otherwise:
-
Routines of 3 to 5 steps maximum.
-
Multifunction products with powerful assets.
-
More balanced skin, with less risk of reactions.
-
Greater constancy thanks to simplicity.
In addition, by reducing the number of products, you also contribute to a more sustainable routine and with less environmental impact.
How to move on to a minimal skincare routine
Taking the step towards a minimalist routine does not mean giving the self -care. On the contrary: it is about prioritizing the most effective steps and choosing products that work well together.
Next, we show you how to organize a Best Minimal Skincare Routine using only five Skin Generics key products.
Step 1: Deep but respectful cleaning
A good routine always begins with effective, but soft cleaning. The skin should be clean, without a sensation of tankment or irritation.
The ideal product is the Triple texture makeup remover with sunflower oil
This sensory gel is transformed into oil and then into milk on contact with water. Thanks to its 84% of moisturizing assets, clean in depth without resecting, even in the eye contour.
It contains sunflower oils, almonds, bold and vitamin E, ideal for removing makeup (including waterproof) respecting the cutaneous barrier.
Mode of use: Apply it on dry skin and massage until the gel is transformed into oil. Add water to emulsify and transform it into milk. Finally, remove with warm water.
Step 2: Smart hydration with multifunction assets
Your skin needs daily hydration, and the ideal product is the one that keeps it flexible, drills small wrinkles and reinforces its water retention capacity.
The ideal product is the Moisturizer with hyaluronic acid
It contains high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, diglycerin and lipochroman, to keep elastic skin, soft and visibly hydrated. With 21% of active ingredients, it is perfect for using day and night.

Step 3: Intensive night treatment
If you want visible and durable results, you need a concentrated treatment. No different serums are needed: a well -formulated one is enough.
The ideal product is the Rejuvenating Booster with retinol + ceramids
With 98.75% of active ingredients, this booster combines pure encapsulated retinol with ceramides, jojoba oils, olive and revinage®. It improves firmness, reduces wrinkles and helps unify tone.

Step 4: Weekly treatment
You do not need a different mask for each problem. An effective, well chosen formula can become your ally without complicating routine.

This 100 % natural oil combines 7 vegetable oils with antioxidant properties. You can use it on the face, body, hair or nails. It provides nutrition without leaving fat sensation.
