We all want glowing, radiant facial skin. According to a 2017 survey, over half of the consumers in the United States use a skincare product to maintain a youthful appearance. However, when you don't apply it right, you miss out on its full effect. There are a few tips and tricks that can help you make the most of your skincare routine.

Tips for Oily Skin

Oily skin is best combatted with salicylic or glycolic acid commonly found in skin cleansers and toners. The following routine can maximize efficiency:

• Rinse the face with warm water to open pores.
  


• Rub your cleanser in large circles on the cheeks and forehead, and switch to small semicircles around your nose.
  


• Rinse your skin thoroughly with warm water, and finish by splashing cold water on your face to close the pores.
  


• Spritz your favorite toner on two cotton pads. Starting in the middle of the forehead, glide the pads outward. Repeat this process from the nose to the cheeks and chin to jowls.
  

Tips for Dry Skin

Moisturizer is the name of the game when it comes to dry skin, and proper application is key. It's important to massage your moisturizer firmly yet gently onto the skin. There are three key sweeps to complete for each application:

• 1. Forehead to temples
  


• 2. Nose to ears
  


• 3. Chin to jawline
  

Pro-Tip- Anti-aging products can often help combat dry skin while simultaneously preventing wrinkles and age spots. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and shea butter. You can also consult with your esthetician for their personalized suggestions based on your skin type.
