According to new data from CivicScience, 46% of the pop generation has a skincare routine, but only 22% follow one daily (24% report taking care of their skin less than once a day). Among men who have followed a skincare routine, nearly half (49%) used an all-in-one product when they began their regimen. However, 92% of respondents reported that at some point in their lives they had switched to a more specialized skin care product. 53% have changed their skincare products over time, and the average person studied tried seven different cleansers before finding one that worked for your skin.
Another 22 percent of those surveyed said they felt guilty about using aggressive skin care products and 21 percent regretted washing their face with a washcloth. As CeraVe's second National Skin Cleansing Week (August 1) comes to an end, the skincare brand released the results of a recent national survey it conducted, entitled CeraVe Skin Survey, which analyzed the general knowledge, general practices and facial cleansing habits of more than 1000 participants, men and women over 18 years of age. Learning about skincare takes time; in fact, nearly 80 percent believe in using trial and error to determine what products work best for their skin.
