1. Your skin can vary from being oily to dry, from normal to extremely sensitive.
2. You can identify your skin type by looking at your ‘T-zone’. This is the ‘T’ shape that is formed if you imagine a line across your forehead and down your nose.
3. Healthy skin needs a combination of hydration (moisture) and oil.
4. The type of skin care you need, is determined by your skin type.
Skin Type | How to identify | Skin care objectives | Basic Care recommended |
OILY SKIN | Your T-zone is normally very shiny | You should try to reduce the excess oil on the surface, while making sure your skin is hydrated enough | Use a deep pore gel cleanser. Follow up with a light scrub and a light non-oily moisturizer |
DRY SKIN | Your T-zone is dry and your skin tends to have flaky, dry patches. | You should try to increase the moisture as well as hydration on your skin | Use a cleanser followed by a freshener and moisturizer and moisturizer for dry skin, for dry skin, for that glowing look |
| You have some oiliness on your T-zone but other parts of your skin tend to be normal or dry | You should try to balance the dry and oily areas, and ensure that your skin is well hydrated | Use a gel cleanser and a toner. Follow up with a light moisturizer |
SENSITIVE SKIN | Your skin gets easily irritated, and is prone to inflammation | You need to maintain a good moisture balance, while avoiding irritation | Use a delicate cleanser and freshener followed by a light moisturizer |
