How to Read Skincare Product Labels
Ingredient order, active ingredients, SPF, expiry symbols and claims like "fragrance free": learn how to read a skincare label before you buy.
Skin Care
Cleansers, moisturizers, sunscreen and care for sensitive or blemish-prone skin. Simple, clearly labeled products for building a routine that suits your skin type.
Building a simple skin care routine
A basic routine needs three things: a gentle cleanser, a moisturizer suited to your skin type and a broad-spectrum sunscreen in the morning. Add other products one at a time so you can tell what helps.
- Dry or sensitive skin: fragrance-free, creamier formulas.
- Oily or blemish-prone skin: light, oil-free gels and lotions.
- Sunscreen: broad-spectrum, SPF 30 or higher, reapplied every two hours outdoors.
- New products: test on a small area of skin first.
