How to Choose a Face Wash for Dull-Looking Skin

Skin can look dull for many reasons, including surface buildup and a routine that leaves it feeling dry or uncomfortable. A good face wash should cleanse effectively while fitting the needs of your skin.

Introduce it thoughtfully
If you are new to exfoliating acids or your skin is sensitive, patch test and introduce the cleanser gradually. Glycolic acid can irritate some skin, especially sensitive skin. If irritation develops, stop using the product.

Keep the rest of your routine simple
After cleansing, apply moisturizer. During the day, finish with sunscreen. Consistency and skin comfort matter more than adding more steps.
