Cleansers come in many forms and should be used TWICE a Day.
a)Face wash- is a foaming cleanser with a slightly acidic pH.
Clients with oily or combination skin like foamy cleanser. Recommend these washes with caution because they can over dry the skin. This often leads to an over-production of oil in the skin and can exacerbate acne.
Cleansing LOTION- is a water based emulsion for normal and combination skin.
Cleansing lotions can be applied with damp cotton pads or the hands and can be removed with a damp soft cloth, cotton, or sponges.
b)Cleansing CREAM- is an oil-based emulsion used primarily to dissolve makeup and dirt. Cleansing cream is heavier than cleansing lotions. Cleansing cream should be followed by a toner or another cleanser that is strong enough to remove any residue.
CLEANSER BENEFITS:
-Cleanser dissolves makeup and dirt to UNBLOCK PORES and prepares the skin for other products.
-Milky cleanser soften dry skin,
-Cleansers contain ingredients to counteract various skin problems.

2)TONERS
Toners, fresheners, and astringents are all essentially the same type of product. These are liquids that are used after cleansing, just before moisturizer is applied.
a)Freshener- often has the lowest alcohol content (0 to 4 percent) and is beneficial for DRY and MATURE skin as well as for SENSITIVE skin.
b)Toners usually have alcohol content (4 to 15 percent) and are designed for use on NORMAL and COMBINATION skin. They tone, or tighten the skin.
c)Astringents may have an alcohol content of up to 35 % and are used for OILY and ACNE-PRONE skin. They help remove excess oil on the skin, but some are too drying and can cause more harm than good.

A good mask can do wonders for the skin, and like most beauty treatments, the benefits have been known for thousands of years, Mask ingredients include herbs, vitamins, and oils, which can be combined in clay, seaweed, or hydrating bases.
Masks tighten and tone the skin, also draw impurities out of the pores and clear up blemishes. Masks such as cucumber, or aloe, stay moist and are more hydrating.

2)Whenever possible, stay out of the SUN for long periods of time.
Specially between 10a.m to 2p.m. When rays time are strongest.
3)Try avoiding tanning beds.
It’s not true that beds are safe to tanning.
4)Wear sunglasses that wrap around the eyes and have 100% UV blocking lenses.
5)Select a sunscreen that protects against both UVA and UVB rays, sometimes labeled as broad-spectrum sunscreen. Many popular brands will not adequately protect your skin from these harmful rays.
6)Apply liberally about one teaspoon of sunscreen to your face and least on ounce to your body each day.
7)Waterproof and water-resistant sunscreen is good if you are in-evolved in swimming. They need to be applied/reapplied twenty minutes before entering the water so that the product can bond with the skin.
8)Those who work out of door might need frequent application of a sunscreen with a high SPF, at least 50 SPF.
9)If you have sensitive skin, use a cream-based product, and AVOID SUNSCREENS with: tretinoin ( Retina-A, Stieva-A, Retiso-A, Rejuva-A, Renova, Vitamin A acid) which dried the skin. Look for the fragrance-free, hypoallergenic sunscreen.
10)UVA rays are reflected from all light surfaces, including water, sand, snow, ice, and even concrete.
11)Children younger than six months old should not wear sunscreen, but instead be covered and kept out of the sun.
