Your pores will be cleaned out and your skin will feel better. Don't forget to pat your face dry with a clean towel. To wrap it all up just put on some lotion such as a moisturizing or Aloe Vera lotion.
• Use some sunscreen if you know you're going to be outdoors for a long time. Select a sunscreen that has aloe and moisturizers in it. Once your inside, put on some facial cream that has vitamin E. You can also apply this any time your face feels dry.
