A member asked:

What should i be using on my sensitive face wash, creams..) usually use makeup.dont smoke and feel i've lost its color and glow.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Non soap cleanser: Try washing with a non-soap gentle cleanser. Cetaphil and dove make nice products for this. In addition, stay away from acids, tretinoins (retin a, differin, tazorac, (tazarotene) etc) and peels. Only exfoliate 1-2 x each week.
