Step 1
Think of your face as an artist's canvas. You must prime it before you can paint with cleansing, exfoliating, toning and moisturizing which are the keys to maintain your skin regardless of type and age.We all have different skin types, so see a professional before you purchase your products. For daily use you do not need numerous products nor do you need expensive ones. It is a matter of personal preference but take note as to what they suggest. Skin is either normal, oily, dry or combination, so learn what your skin type is before you buy skin care products. Purchasing the incorrect products may do damage.

Step 2
Make sure your skin is clean. But, avoid soap. Using a good face cleanser will allow pores to breath by ridding the skin's surface of excess dirt and oil. For women, having clean skin will also allow your application of makeup go on more smoothly. Men also must take note, that clean skin will make shaving easier. Many men may just be using bar soap, or even worse, nothing at all to cleanse their face. Change that habit today.

Step 3
Skin rebuilds itself by adding new layers of cells and shedding old ones. Sometimes the older skin cells can create a dry look on the surface and clog pores. Exfoliating is one step in your skin care regimen that does not need to be done every day in order to achieve good results. Exfoliation softens skin and allows moisturizers to penetrate deeper. Dry or sensitive skin should only exfoliate twice a week with a mild product.

Step 4
The toner will clean and close the pores. It also restores the skin pH balance and helps the skin fight bacterial invasion. Toners are available for all skin types, so if you have dry skin, do not use on with an alcohol base.

Step 5
This is the final step in daily skin care. The moisturizer will prevent the natural moisture in the top layer of your skin to disappear and will help water retention. You keep your body hydrated by drinking plenty of water, so keeping your skin hydrated is a crucial step in your daily skin care regimen. Contrary to what you may assume, even oily skin needs a daily moisturizer but purchase one without added oil.

Step 6
Determine your skin's needs by using the best products that will help improve the quality of your skin keeping it looking younger and healthier as well. You can always add on other products such as masks as needed but the above mentioned is a must for all. Then use them each and every day for your face is your canvas.
