Cleansing plays an important role in the skin care. Washing your skin removes the dirt and bacteria. Using warm water for cleaning the skin helps your skin from getting dry.

Moisturizing the skin is important as it protects from dryness and acts as a protective layer for the skin. If you have dry skin, you must avoid alcohol-based products and if you have oily skin, avoid oil-based products.
