Cleansing Tips by Skin Type

  • Dry skin: Use lukewarm water, avoid foaming cleansers with sulfates, and always follow with a hydrating toner or serum.

  • Oily skin: Don’t skip moisturizer. Over-cleansing can cause even more oil production.

  • Normal/Combo skin: Stick to non-stripping cleansers that adapt to seasonal skin changes.
