Some people spend years trying to fix their spots and problem skin and suffer repeated breakouts. Although it sounds obvious, to get the perfect skin care routine you need to know what type of skin you have so read my blog How to tell your skin type. Only then, can you choose products for your skin type and go through a trial-and-error process to see which ones actually work.
Using products that are not right for your skin type is comparable to someone treating a cold with products meant for treating warts!
