The first step for you is to cleanse you skin with an oil-based cleanser. This will help remove all the impurities like make-up, sunscreen, pollution etc.
Water based cleansers.

After getting rid of all your oil-based impurities it’s time to go in deep. Water based cleansers will help you remove dirt or sweat that your oil cleanser didn’t help you with.

When you are done cleansing your skin, it’s time to exfoliate. While exfoliating you will get rid of dead skin cells from your skin. You will also encourage turnover of cells making your skin smoother.

Toner is the first level of hydration. Toning helps maintaining the ph level of skin. However, lookout for alcohol based toners as they are harsh on skin and can cause dehydration.
Essence.

Serums/Ampoules are your best friends if you have specific skin concerns like acne, fine lines or dark spots. With active ingredients and nutrients, serums target all such concerns. Ampoules act like booster shots as they are a more concentrated version of serums.
