You can start with creams having low percentage of the active ingredient and gradually move towards the products containing high percentage of active ingredient.

    Transform and adjust your skin care routine according to the climatic conditions. Change your skin care products according to the seasons. In winters use cold creams or creamy skin care products that helps in preventing cracking and drying of the skin. Creamy skin care products also moisturize the skin in winters. In summers use light skin care products such as lotions and tones to reduce extra oil from your face.
