WHAT IT IS?

Your skin can be classified as normal if it isn’t particularly oily or dry and if anti-aging, acne, and sensitivity aren’t concerns on your radar—in other words, the skin type all of us wish we had.



DRY SKIN

A.M.
Cleansing Lotion
Toner
Antioxcidant Serum
Moisturizer with SPF

P.M.                            
 Cleansing Lotion        
Toner                           
Retinol Serum             
Eye Cream                  
Hydrating Moisturizer

WEEKLY
At-Home Peel
Face Oil

WHAT IT IS?

Dry skin has a damaged moisture barrier,” Rouleau says. “Your skin has invisible cracks in it and it allows moisture to escape and irritants to get in more easily.



OILY SKIN

A.M.
Cleansing Gel
Toner
Antioxcidant Serum
Zinc Oxide Sunscreen

P.M.                         
Cleansing Gel           
Toner                        
AHA/BHA Serum    
Retinol Serum          
Oil-Free Moisturizer

WEEKLY
Clay Mask
Face Oil

WHAT IT IS?

Oily skin is skin that has larger oil glands and a high sebum content,” Rouleau says. “This is genetic. Oily-skinned women have built-in oil, so the goal is to lessen the oil activity by keeping your skin cells lightly hydrated.



COMBINATION SKIN

A.M.
Cleansing Gel
Toner
Lightweight Moisturizer
Zinc Oxide Sunscreen

                    P.M.                                          
Cleansing Gel                            
Toner                                         
AHA/BHA Serum                     
Retinol Serum                            
Lightweight Serum Moisturizer

WEEKLY
Clay Mask
Face-Oil


WHAT IT IS?

The concept of combination skin is that you’re oily in some places and dry in others,” Rouleau says. “You don’t necessarily want to use two different routines, but instead find one in the middle of the road.


SENSITIVE SKIN

A.M.
Cleansing Lotion
Alcohol-Free Toner
Scent-Free Moisturizer
Zinc Oxide Sunscreen

P.M.                             
Cleansing Lotion         
Alcohol-Free Toner     
Scent-Free Moisturizer

WEEKLY
Gel Mask
Lactic Acid Serum


WHAT IT IS?

A lot of people think of sensitive skin as acne-prone, but I think of it as skin that gets red and irritated easily,” Rouleau says. “It’s more delicate skin that you can’t be aggressive with.
