There are different types of skin conditions, varying in moisture. There are people with normal, dry, oily or anything in between and combination thereof. Maintenance for each skin type is different. One should not use a product meant for another skin type; for example, a person with dry skin should not use a product for oily skin and vice-versa. This is because the condition could worsen and lead to skin problems that can be more difficult to address down the road. For those with dry skin, it is important to use facial cleansers that can help moisten the skin. Facial cleansers with natural moisturizers and exfoliating ingredients are great for dry skin.
