Cleanse

Make sure you cleanse your face in the morning and before hitting the bed at night to ensure removal of dirt, impurities, and excess oil, preventing clogged pores and acne.

Toner

Tonning hydrates the skin and makes it ready to absorb other skin care products applied on top of it. It also balances the pH levels and help control oil.

Targeted treatments

This is an optional step where all the serums and spot treatments come into play. You can use them to target your specific skin issue, but make sure to patch test first.

Moisturise

After all the steps, moisturise to seal in the nourishment and hydrate the skin. Use non-comedogenic moisturisers for oily and combination skin.

Sunscreen

Lastly, do not skip sunscreen during the day, as it is the ultimate protection for your skin against the harmful UV rays from the sun that cause premature ageing and skin cancer.
