How To Take Care Dry vs. Oily Skin

Different skin types certainly require different treatments. Both in terms of routine care and skincare use. In order not to take the wrong steps and resulting further skin problems, you can apply these skin care tips based on your skin type.
Dry Skin
General Care
If you have a dry skin type, then pay attention to daily habits such as regularly using moisturizer and avoiding taking long hot showers (only 5-10 minutes). Never skip sunscreen before going out and reapply every few hours.
Skincare Routine
For dry skin, the key is to maintain moisture. Try applying the following steps.
- Avoid washing your face with warm water, use cold water to wash your face. Wash your face gently at least twice a day.
- Use a cleansing soap that has a gentle, alcohol-free formula on your face twice a day and after sweating (e.g. after exercising).

Oily Skin
General Care
The best solution for oily skin is to follow a proper and consistent skincare routine. Many people also say that their diet is what keeps their skin from acting up. This can help to stay hydrated, avoiding oily foods and trans fats.
