Find Your Perfect Skin Routine

Perfect skin starts with a solid beauty routine. Your skin type will lead you to a good routine best suited to your needs.
* Oily ( if you have large pores, excess shine and frequent breakouts, keep your face clear with oil zapping products that won't strip your skin.)
Cleanse - when your skin is slick, lather up with a face wash that contains salicylic acid - it'll get rid of the gunk in your pores that leads to acne.
 Moisturise - skipping moisturiser can actually make your face greasier(your skin will produce more oil of its own). To give skin a shot of moisture without the excess grease, use a mattifying oil-free lotion.
Treat  - clear up pesky pimples with a pore refining mask made with sulphur, a great acne fighting ingredient.
* Dry (your biggest complexion concerns are fighting flakes,dullness and uncomfortable tightness. You need to keep hydrated and give your skin a healthy looking glow.)
Cleanse - the key is to wash away dirt and make-up without robbing skin of natural oils. A gentle, soap-free wash is your best bet.
Moisturise - hydrate your face with a nourishing moisturiser infused with hyaluronic acid to help hold moisture in your skin.
Treat - thirsty skin can look dull or swallow - add an intense mask to your weekly routine to bring out radiance. Look to aloe or vitamin E.
* Combination ( some areas are dry, while others are oily. Choose products that'll bring back balance, but aren't too harsh.)
Cleanse - go for a mild face wash that contains glycolic acid or soy to free the dirt that's stuck in your pores - it won't suck your skin dry.
Moisturise - a lotion with a lightweight texture will do wonders for those patches of dryness that usually pop up on your cheeks
Treat - when you get the greasies on your T-zone, swipe it with a shine controlling toner or some oil blotting towelletes to sop up oil anytime.
* Sensitive ( harsh weather, the wrong product and even stress can cause redness, blotchiness or stinging. Be sure to stick with a gentle formulas that help calm and soothe irritable skin.)
Cleanse - a milky wipe-off cleanser or a thick, creamy wash will whisk away make-up and grime. Look for a formula that's fragrance-free and wash only at night.
Moisturise - your moisturiser should contain pampering ingredients like oatmeal to relieve itchiness or chamomile to tone down redness while boosting hydration.
Treat - keep the less-is-more rule in mind when using face scrubs and masks - use the no more than once a week to avoid upsetting your skin.
Whatever your skin type choose the routine best suited to you.
