@snigdha The most important step of any skin care routine is cleansing your skin. Though most people should be washing their face morning and night, it’s especially important for those with oily skin to give their face a complete cleanse in the morning, That’s why washing with a good exfoliating cleanser, both in the morning and evening, is recommended. Once your skin is clean and free from any makeup, dirt, and oil, Lee suggests you follow with an exfoliating toner that contains either:
salicylic acid
glycolic acid
lactic acid
if you’re prone to acne, Lee says you should be using benzoyl peroxide or sulfur in the daytime to help curb oil production and prevent breakouts.
