Moisturizer For dry skin, I always recommend a rich, emollient cream. Facial creams for dry skin are thicker and heavier than most, but keep in mind that dry skin needs to be kept hydrated for a soft, supple look and feel. I always recommend that you moisturize dry skin when it’s still damp after cleansing and toning. This will help lock in the normal moisture of the skin. Toner This step is often overlooked in most skin care systems but it’s the most important. Using a toner removes any residue left behind after cleansing and it also balances the pH of the skin.  Tip: Try filling a spray bottle with sparkling water infused with cucumber and store it in the fridge. This is such a wonderful treat for the skin and it’s awesome for warm days. The bubbles in the sparkling water may get flat but the water is still oxygenated. This is also great for irritated skin. Eye Creams This is an extra step that’s not always needed. However, if you have dry, mature, aging skin, I recommend using an eye cream. This helps with fine lines and wrinkles around the eye area by offering even more hydration. For sagging skin around the eye area I suggest a firming eye serum.  Tip: I recommend sunscreen for all skin types. I also really like tinted moisturizers for oily and normal / combination skin types. It gives you the protection that’s needed and a light tint of color without using foundation.  Tip: Mask and scrub can be used once per week. Tibay Trans4orm Magazine, Life a Full, Au
