Most people don't need a ten-step routine. A gentle cleanser, a moisturizer and daily sunscreen cover the basics for most skin. Everything else is optional.
The basics
- Cleanser: gentle, fragrance-free if your skin is sensitive
- Moisturizer: a basic one often works as well as an expensive one
- Sunscreen: broad spectrum, SPF 30 or higher, every day
- One extra, if you want: something for a specific goal you've chosen
Add one thing at a time
If you try something new, add it alone and give it a few weeks. Adding several at once makes it impossible to tell what's working, and what's causing a reaction.
