HSP offers a bevy of information for all skin types, but they also offer tips specifically geared towards the concerns faced by women of Spanish and Latin American cultures.
Aside from my daily ritual of rinsing my face with warm water and nuetrogena facial cleanser, then a splash of cold water followed by a light coat of Nivea skin cream, I was pretty lost on how to treat my infrequent outbreaks of a pimple here and there.
I have that type of skin that will become slightly oily during the day during the summer, which meant face cream was actually clogging my pores. I steam my face twice a week, but I was still lost as to how to keep my facial skin clear with the even complexion I was blessed to have all these years.Thank God for HSP and their tips. They cover everything from removing scars to protecting your skin.
Obviously, everyone's skin is unique, and you'll want to discuss your specific condition and goals with a skin care specialist before electing a procedure or new regimen.

Dark, olive complexions
Large pores
Soft and smooth, tends to age slower
Oily
Prone to hyperpigmentation or dark spots
Dark under-eye circles are common
Being aware of these differences can make it easier to take the right steps in caring and improving your skin. Read on for some helpful tips about proper Latina skin care, popular products and healthy skin habits.
