Hi. My name is Mary Thinnes. I'm a skin care expert. Now, I'll be discussing how to choose
the correct products for home use, based on your type of skin that we just mentioned before
and what determining what your skin type is. For instance, if you have determined your
skin to be a normal to oily, you obviously want to use products that are conducive [ph]
for normal to oily skin. Generally speaking, cleansing gels are the ones that are generally
that would fall into this category. With cleansing gels, they will have, you know, alpha hydroxy
acids, which happens to be good for absorbing oil and correcting that condition in the skin.
However, it's something that you don't want to use on a everyday basis. In order to regulate
the oil production in your T-zone because like I mentioned before with normal skin,
your T-zone, your forehead, nose and chin tend to be a little bit oily. So, if you were
to use a product to absorb that oil, not on your whole face, you could use a cleansing
gel that has the alpha hydroxy in it on your T-zone and then use a cleansing gel that was
just your basic cleansing gel on your cheeks. And like I said I would alternate every other
day. I wouldn't use that on a regular basis. So, that's how normal to oily skin type, the
cleansing gel is appropriate for.
