What type of skin do you have?

We will teach you some simple methods, with the help of which you will find out what type of skin you have.

The skin is the largest organ of the body, therefore, it has a number of important and complex functions.

Dermatologists explain that there are 4 main types of skin: dry, combinated, normal, oily. Each skin type has its own individual characteristics, therefore, it needs its own care. Let's consider in detail.

Oily skin
Oily skin produces an excess of sebum that causes the skin to appear shiny and feel greasy.—especially throughout the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin). People with oily skin may tend to have less wrinkles, but they may also be more prone to enlarged pores, acne blemishes, blackheads, and whiteheads.

Dry skin
Dry skin generally produces less natural oils than other types of skin.

When you look in the mirror, you get the impression that your body lacks water, your skin is dry.

Wrinkles and lines appear easily on dry skin. In the conditions of improper care, the risk of skin irritation increases.

Normal skin

Normal skin is balanced—feeling neither too dry nor too oily. It is not prone to breakouts, flakiness, or feeling greasy or tight.

Normal type of skin is even in color, smooth, dense, clean, with moderate pores.

The oil and moisture content is so balanced that the skin rarely gets irritated.

Combination skin

Combination skin includes areas that are dry as well as oily—with the T-zone commonly being oily, and the cheeks being either dry or normal.

This skin type can vary during different seasons of the year, and due to various factors, such as stress or hormone fluctuation.
