What are the steps to washing your face?
? asked:
I am being preventative/proactive about taking care of my skin…my skin type is oily but also combination and sensative. I need to know the order to use products and how often for…exfoliating, using a clay mask to draw impurities, nose strips, and steaming my face. I know washing, toner/astringent and lotion are daily…but about every 5 days I want to pamper myself w/ a ****** where I steam, clean, tone/astingent, moisturize and put a clay mask on my face. the murad system uses sulfer and salycic acid to clear skin and blemishes so I brought sulfer hair grease (and use it at night like 2-3 times a week to get the sulfur benefits and deep moisturizing of petroleum.) http://www.americarx.com/Products/9451.html
Also when I get white heads pimples with white filling that protrude out on my face they leave marks or blemishes so I have to stay ontop of face care this seems like alot but I am sure they will prevent oily skin and pimples which cause blemishes for me. THANKS

Ok nose strips you do 2-3 times a week, and I wouldnt do them on the same day as all that other stuff.
First you steam, then you exfoliate, then you do the mask.
You could probably exfoliate, then steam, then mask also.
Then of course the wash/toner/moisturizer daily, or twice a day since you have oily skin.
You can prevent oily skin (and thereby HELP prevent acne) by drinking LOTS of water and moisturizing constantly.
