Serious skin care products don't have to be the most expensive, they just need to work. Don't choose products based strictly on price, popularity, or advertising.

An important point to remember is that everyone's skin is a bit different. You'll have to experiment until you find the most effective products for you. Here are 7 tips for improving the effectiveness of your serious skin care routine.

1. Selecting products -- Your skin care product choices should be based on whether or not they work rather than price or advertising hype. In addition to proper application, effectiveness is a matter of matching products to skin type and weather conditions.

2. Know your skin type -- Determine whether your skin type is oily, dry, sensitive, normal, or combination skin. Different products may be right for you depending upon your skin type.

3. Remove make up once daily -- Clogged pores are a side effect of make up, so make sure to thoroughly remove it with a make up remover.

4. Cleanse -- In addition to removing make up, you should cleanse daily with an appropriate cleanser for your skin. It doesn't make sense to go out and purchase serious skin care products only to apply them to a dirty face. Thoroughly cleanse your skin before applying moisturizers or special cleansers.

5. Apply and use products correctly -- Applying products correctly is essential to the long term success of your skin care regimen. This includes removing make up, thorough cleansing, and ensuring that your skin is warm and damp when applying the product.

6. Be willing to change -- Be prepared to change products at some point. Products can change ingredients, and skin types may change over your lifetime. Climate and weather conditions may make a difference as to how well a particular product works.

7. Following directions -- Your skin care efforts will be more effective if you follow the directions on the label of the product. Use and store your items as directed.

Following the above tips will help ensure that you're maximizing your skin care efforts. Choose your products wisely, test them and be willing to change products if needed.
