That’s not how it works.

Tegan said, “My recommendation to anyone trying to build a skincare routine would be to start small.

Everyone can benefit from a good cleanser and a moisturizing SPF.

If it’s acne, you might need salicylic acid.

It’s important to pay attention to products and verify they have the right active ingredient you need.”
