Some apply cosmetics intuitively, others let themselves be advised by experts, but... what facial routine do those who know the most about cosmetics carry out? Raquel González , cosmetologist and creator of Byoode, reveals all her secrets : the fundamental steps of her anti-aging beauty routine , what the most important active ingredients are and, of course, how to treat one of the problems that most often worries us: the dreaded stains!
What is Raquel's double facial cleansing like?
“ If you are looking for a way to transform your skin, to make it crystalline, transparent and improve its condition, I think it is the first thing you should try: double facial cleansing.” And he continues: “ a balsamic cleanser is going to help us with the heaviest parts of the skin : makeup, pollution, sweat, sun protection… And it is not until we apply a water-based cleanser , that is, a gel cleanser, which cleans our skin in depth,” he adds.
Cosmetologist Raquel González starts with the Metamorphosis of Narcissus makeup remover balm, from Byoode . First, massage it dry on the face and then add water and continue massaging. Then rinse with water. The second step of Raquel's double cleansing is Byoode's Super Green Poem cleansing gel, which provides a deep and refreshing cleansing . With ingredients like watercress, green tea, radish root extract, and pomegranate , it's loaded with antioxidants. Raquel uses a small amount of Super Green Poem with wet hands and rubs gently to create lather. Next, massage your face and neck and rinse with warm water.

Raquel's anti-aging routine, step by step
The anti-aging recipe, in the words of Raquel González , begins with a facial routine with “exfoliation with hydroxy acids, valuable antioxidants such as vitamin C and other vitamins, in addition to the veil that retains everything in the skin so that it can exert its activity,” such as cosmetologist explains.

The key to maintaining youthful skin lies in ingredients that stimulate the synthesis of collagen and elastin in the skin.
- CLEANING AND EXFOLIATION. After double cleansing, apply Byoode's Adzuki & Ragi Fantasy exfoliating powder, which illuminates and reduces hyperpigmentation and blemishes due to the action of ingredients such as gluconolactone and phytic acid . In the palm of your hand, take the equivalent amount of a coffee spoon, add water and emulsify until the powder turns into a foam. Afterwards, work on the skin for 2 minutes, rinse with warm water and dry with a clean towel.
- ANTIOXIDANTS. During the day, the skin needs antioxidants to protect itself from external aggressors, such as the sun, which produces cascades of aging. And a key antioxidant in Raquel's routine is vitamin C, present in the Brightening Sprouts Ecstasy serum, which contains broccoli extract, a food that detoxifies and protects the skin. “ This serum illuminates the skin and inhibits the production of melanin , the cause of spots, and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, providing firmness and elasticity,” explains Raquel.
- DEEP HYDRATION . “What I like about the Lotus & Spirulina Romance moisturizing cream, from Byoode , is that it is like a coat for my skin. It has a rich and soft texture like a cloud and is enriched with hyaluronic acid, lotus root and the regenerating power of spirulina algae," reveals the creator of Byoode. It is part of both her morning and night routine.
Of course, as Raquel González indicates, one of the great keys to healthy and young skin, in addition to applying products with quality active ingredients, is consistency. “Beautiful skin is not achieved overnight, it is hard work ,” says the cosmetologist.
