How to Maintain Healthy Facial Skin

1. • 1
     Cleanse your face twice a day using a facial cleansing system. A system includes a cleanser, toner and moisturizer. You can purchase a cleansing system at any supermarket; they are typically located in the health and beauty aisle.

     Exfoliate your face once a week. Exfoliating the face eliminates excess dead skin and leaves your face feeling fresh and renewed. Minimize the number of times per week that you exfoliate. Too much exfoliating will result in oily skin.

     Use a facial mask once a week. Facial masks sit on your skin for approximately 10 minutes, depending on the brand. As the mask sets into your skin, it deep cleanses your pores.

     Protect your face with sunscreen. If you plan on spending more than 10 minutes in the sun, your skin will need protection. Sunscreen reduces visible scarring and dark spots.
