Do you remember when our mothers nagged us to use lotion or sun block? As we grew up, we finally understood why mom was so persistent about face care. Turns out taking care of our faces from an early age impacts the skin's texture, wrinkles, and the overall look. With all of the choices out there, it's hard to choose which products will work best for your skin. This isn't a problem because it all starts with your skin type.
Keep On Glowing
It doesn't matter if you're a man or womanzone. This is the forehead, nose, and chin area, which often differs from the other parts of your face such as the cheeks and eyes. However, despite your skin type you should always use a daily cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and sunscreen.
* '''Normal skin:''' If your skin has even pigmentation with minor wrinkles, no acne, and is soft, consider yourself very lucky. Actually, you have normal skin. Many normal skin products such as Olay's Complete Ageless Skin Renewal UV cream contain anti-aging ingredients and SPF protection.
* '''Dry skin:''' Tight, flaky skin can be caused by various conditions ranging from sun exposure to harsh soaps to diet and lack of water. Use face products with vitamin E or an intensive nighttime moisturizer.
* '''Sensitive skin:''' Your skin can be aggravated if you eat certain foods, get stressed out easily, or if you are exposed to certain products and environmental conditions. You can care for sensitive skin through natural remedies or use a lotion like Neutrogena's Moisture Oil Free Formula. Sensitive skin face care products are unscented and should not cause any irritation or stinging.
* '''Oily:''' Have an oily shine to your face? What about large pores and blackheads? If you suffer from these problems, you have oily skin. These annoyances occur because the face produces too much natural oil. You will need a cleanser, toner, and moisturizer to combat this problem. An acne treatment might be necessary because oily skin is more prone to acne breakouts.
* '''Combination:''' Oily T-zones and dry cheeks are the number one signs of combination skin. Look for products that will address both issues. Cetaphil's daily face cleanser and moisturizers deal with normal to oily skin while Olay's Deep Cleansing Face Wash contain witch hazel for a through cleanse.
