Find Your Skin Type

Understanding Your Skin Type

Skincare isn’t complicated—but using the right products for your skin type makes all the difference. If your face always feels greasy, gets dry and rough, or fluctuates between both, it’s time to understand what your skin needs.

There are four main skin types: oily, dry, normal, and combination. Each has its own characteristics and requires a slightly different approach. Below, you’ll find simple guidelines to help you take care of your skin effectively.

Oily Skin

If your skin feels greasy or looks shiny a few hours after washing, you likely have oily skin. This happens when your skin produces excess sebum (natural oil), which can clog pores and lead to breakouts.

Common signs of oily skin:

  • Noticeable shine throughout the day

  • Large, visible pores

  • Frequent breakouts or blackheads

  • Skin feels greasy even after cleansing

How to take care of it:

  • Wash your face twice a day with a gentle foaming cleanser

  • Use oil-free, lightweight moisturizers

  • Exfoliate 2-3 times a week to prevent clogged pores

  • Avoid heavy, greasy products that can worsen oil production

  • Always use sunscreen to prevent sun damage

Recommended Products:

  • Purifying Mouse- Energizing Cleanser.

  • Clear Control-Clarifying Gel Face Cleanser

  • Purifying Toner

  • Clear Control- Oil Free Zinc Face Gel

Dry Skin

If your skin often feels tight, rough, or flaky, you likely have dry skin. This can be caused by weather, harsh products, or natural skin tendencies.

Common signs of dry skin:

  • Tightness, especially after washing

  • Rough or flaky patches

  • Dull or uneven texture

  • More prone to irritation or redness

How to take care of it:

  • Use a hydrating cleanser that won’t strip your skin

  • Apply a rich, nourishing moisturizer daily

  • Use products with ingredients like hyaluronic acid or glycerin

  • Avoid harsh soaps or over-exfoliating

  • Drink plenty of water and use a humidifier in dry conditions

  • Fresh Start- Gentle Cleansing Milk

  • Turbo Tonic- Hydrating Toner

  • Turbo Boost- Hydrating Serum

  • Hydrate + Moisturizing Day Cream

Normal Skin

If your skin isn’t too oily or too dry and generally feels balanced, you have normal skin. Even though it’s low-maintenance, a simple skincare routine helps keep it in top shape.

Common signs of normal skin:

  • Even texture without excessive dryness or oiliness

  • Small or minimal pores

  • Few to no breakouts

  • Skin feels comfortable throughout the day

How to take care of it:

  • Stick to a simple routine with a mild cleanser and moisturizer

  • Use sunscreen daily to protect against aging and damage

  • Incorporate an antioxidant serum for long-term skin health

Combination Skin

If some areas of your face (like your forehead, nose, and chin) are oily while others (like your cheeks) are dry, you have combination skin. This is one of the most common skin types.

Common signs of combination skin:

  • Oily T-zone (forehead, nose, chin)

  • Dry or normal skin on the cheeks

  • Pores may be larger in some areas and smaller in others

  • Skin may feel balanced some days and off on others

How to take care of it:

  • Use a gentle cleanser to remove excess oil without drying out your skin

  • Apply a lightweight moisturizer that hydrates without making your skin greasy

  • Exfoliate to keep pores clear, but avoid overdoing it

  • Use a toner to balance oil production in the T-zone

Recommended Products:

  • Purifying Mousse - Energizing  Cleanser

  • Clear Control- Oil Free Zinc face gel

  • Purifying Toner- Use on T-Zone

Final Thoughts

No matter your skin type, keeping it clean, hydrated, and protected from the sun is key to maintaining healthy skin. Find a routine that works for you and stick with it. Simple, effective skincare = better skin.
