Introduction
Finding a skincare routine that truly works can feel like a journey, but with Urban Hydration's plant-powered products, it becomes a fulfilling, personalized experience. A good skincare routine isn’t just about using the trendiest products; it's about understanding your skin type, targeting specific concerns, and creating a regimen that nurtures your skin every day. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to create a custom skincare routine with Urban Hydration, focusing on different skin types and common skincare concerns.
- Know Your Skin Type
Before diving into products, it’s essential to understand your skin type. Most people fall into one of these categories:
- Oily Skin – Prone to shine and enlarged pores
- Dry Skin – Often feels tight, rough, and may appear flaky
- Combination Skin – Oily in some areas (like the T-zone) and dry in others ● Sensitive Skin – Easily irritated and reactive, often with redness
Knowing your skin type helps you choose products with the right formulations to support your unique needs.

Cleansing is the foundation of any skincare routine. Urban Hydration offers a range of gentle, hydrating cleansers suitable for each skin type.
- For Oily Skin: Try the Aloe Vera Leaf Face Wash to cleanse and balance without over-drying.
