How to take care of combination skin properly?

The care of combination skin care takes place in two stages. First, you must regulate the secretion of sebum in the T zone, cleanse and exfoliate. Secondly, you need to moisturize, soothe and protect the skin of the cheeks. Care of the T zone means the use of cosmetics intended for the combination skin only. They cannot contain detergents, fatty substances and alcohols. Remember also that strong exfoliation of the middle part of the face may lead to an increase in acne and dysregulation of the work of sebaceous glands. What about the daily care and what to apply before makeup? The cream should have a light formula, it should be absorbed quickly and it cannot leave a sticky layer on the skin.
