What skin type do you have?

The skin is the largest human organ and consists of multiple layers. From oily skin to dry skin, there are different skin types, each with unique properties. Every skin type therefore needs unique care. What skin type do you have?

Normal skin Normal skin is in balance. This means that the skin is neither too oily nor too dry. The skin feels supple and soft and has a normal glow. Normal skin is optimally hydrated and produces sufficient sebum. The pores are of normal size. In addition to the normal care that every skin needs, normal skin sometimes also needs extra hydration or nutrients, for example. Think of moisturizing creams in the winter when the warm heating air can dry out the skin slightly. Oily skin Oily skin produces too much sebum, also known as sebum. Pores are often slightly dilated and the skin has impurities. Because of the large pores, they become clogged more quickly. Oily skin is often shiny. Good cleansing for oily skin is essential. However, for oily skin, never use regular soap. This ensures that the skin becomes even oilier. This is because the skin's natural protective layer dissolves when you use soap and the skin reacts by producing extra sebum. Although someone with oily skin is less likely to get wrinkles, the skin is often heavier, so it sagges sooner. By means of fillers with hyaluronic acid However, sagging and irregularities can easily be filled. Dry skin Dry skin usually produces very little sebum. The moisture level is also often not up to par. As a result, the skin is often scaly and sensitive. Sometimes redness and other forms of irritation also occur. Dry skin can feel a bit like rubber and benefits from hydrating products, such as SkinCeuticals' skin care products. Don't use soap, it further degreases the skin. The dry lines that can occur with dry skin can be treated with Botox and hyaluronic acid fillers, among others. Combination skin Combination skin often consists of two different skin types; the cheeks feel dry, while the forehead, nose, and chin (T-zone) are oily. The oily area produces too much sebum. As a result, the skin shines. The dry areas, on the other hand, feel tight. For sensitive skin type, it is wise to use special skin care products for this skin type. Sensitive skin Sensitive skin is easily irritated. For example, through certain foods. Skin care products can also have a negative effect. It is therefore important to use products that are hypoallergenic. This means that they do not contain soap, alcohol or perfume. It is also important to use a day cream that protects the skin against external influences, but also a night cream that helps the skin recover better overnight. Skinceuticals has a special skin care line for sensitive skin.
