To moisturize your face, use a moisturizing cream or a natural oil, like olive oil, if you have dry skin. If you have oily skin, use a water-based moisturizing lotion on your face so you don't make your skin more oily. Regardless of your skin type, always wash your face before applying moisturizer.
