BEAUTY EDITOR Larissa Jones B eauty utorial T S K I N C A R E Skin Types S kincare ladies are one of the most important features that we should be investing in and nurturing. Skin is the biggest organism and it has a life of it’s own. What I mean by that is your skin changes it’s color, texture and form as the years go by. For example, when you have youthful skin use a skincare range that is specified for youthful skin, mature skin is suit- ed with a skincare range that is specified for tar- geting mature age skin, acne- prone skin would need a skincare range that fights the hardships of acne, pimples and scarring, and so on.
