Skincare is both an art and a science, and finding the right products for your skin type is crucial. By identifying your skin type, you can address specific concerns and achieve optimal results. Let's explore the seven basic skin types and learn how to care for each one.

Normal Skin:

• Characteristics: Minimal breakouts, no extreme reactions to products or weather changes, firm with minimal fine lines.
• Skincare Tips: Lucky you! Normal skin tolerates most ingredients, allowing you to experiment with different products to find what works best for you.

Oily Skin:

• Characteristics: Persistent glow, frequent need for oil-control methods, makeup and skincare products don't always stay put.
• Skincare Tips: Control shine by avoiding mineral oil, petrolatum, and alcohol. Look for non-comedogenic and oil-free products. Incorporate chemical exfoliants, clay masks, and oil-free moisturizers into your routine.

Dry/Dehydrated Skin:

• Characteristics: Flakiness, sensitivity, itchiness, tightness, fine lines.
• Skincare Tips: For dryness, use rich moisturizers and avoid harsh soaps. To combat dehydration, choose water-based products and ensure adequate hydration by drinking enough water daily.

Combination Skin:

• Characteristics: Dryness in certain areas, oiliness in the T-zone (forehead and nose).
• Skincare Tips: Seek balance by avoiding alcohol-based products. Use spot treatments and toners to address specific areas and maintain overall skin equilibrium.

Acne-Prone Skin:

• Characteristics: Frequent breakouts, easily clogged pores, oily or dry skin.
• Skincare Tips: Opt for acne-specific cleansers, exfoliants, and moisturizers. Gently cleanse your face, and use topical gels for acne scarring. Look for ingredients like salicylic acid, clay, benzoyl peroxide, or retinol.

Remember: Blemishes might not always be acne; conditions like rosacea can mimic acne symptoms. If you experience flushing, prominent blood vessels, thickened skin, or stinging/burning, refer to the "Sensitive" section below.
