SKIN CARE TYPE

Normal Skin This is the kind of skin that everyone would love to have, the healthiest type of skin. This skin type definitely needs care if it is to last. 1. It isn't too oily, not too dry, has very few (if any) blemishes, is firm and smooth with very small pores. 2. When you pull the skin away from the bone of the face it will bounce back to the normal position easily. Any lines and wrinkles that are showing are appropriate for the person's age. 3. Has a balanced oil and water content, feels smooth and velvety. 4. Main skincare steps to follow: Cleansing, toning and moisturizing. Combination Skin This will vary according to particular skin type. This skin has a kind of "split personality" 1. Oily T-zone, dryness is seen on the cheeks. Sometime if your chin and nose are oily and the forehead is known to be drier. 2. After each wash some areas would be smooth where as the other would be dry and rough. 3. The development of combination skin type changes with time, age, seasons, hormonal fluctuations and even the environment. 4. Caring for combination skin type is quite difficult as the balance between the two skin types has to be maintained. Oily Skin Skin is shiny and greasy and prone to break out into acne quite often, feeling sticky to touch. 1. Oil-rich and may have recurring blackheads and acne, as well as having large pores. 2. The oil balance in this skin can go awry at times because of various reasons, related to stress, heredity factors or hormonal imbalance. 3. This type of skin is generally youthful looking because of the constant presence of oil on the skin. 4. Acne: - major problem for those who have oily skin. Dry Skin Dry skin is fine-pored skin which looks dull. It has a sallow tone and also is easily irritated.After each wash the skin feels very tight. 1. Dry skin can easily end up becoming chapped without enough moisture and produce wrinkle easily if it is not cared for. 2. It may be lacking natural oils, look flaky with only small pores, blackheads and blemishes showing. 3. Can be due to exposure to harsh elements in the environment, and even just from lack of water. Sensitive Skin The skin will suffer from allergies, rash, stinging as well as burns. Environmental factors can cause a lot more trouble to those with sensitive skin, and cosmetics can often cause irritation. 1. Will not be able to use every cosmetic in market. 2. Use cosmetics which are alcohol free, emulsifier free and even fragrance free skin and face care products.
