Sensitive Skin:
Sensitive skin can react to products or environmental factors, often due to a compromised skin barrier. To care for it, use gentle, fragrance-free products, avoid hot water, and choose soothing ingredients like aloe vera. With the right care, you can keep irritation at bay and maintain a calm complexion.
Normal Skin:
Normal skin has a balanced texture— not too oily or dry. To keep it healthy, use a gentle cleanser, lightweight moisturizer, and daily SPF. Occasional exfoliation can maintain its glow, while consistency is key to keeping your skin in balance.
Oily Skin:
Oily skin can appear shiny due to excess sebum production. Cleanse with a gentle foaming cleanser and use lightweight, oil-free moisturizers. Regular exfoliation helps clear pores and maintain balance. Consistency will help control oil and keep skin fresh.
Combination Skin:
Combination skin has areas that are oily (like the T-zone) and dry or normal elsewhere. Use a gentle cleanser that balances both, and customize your moisturizer for different areas of your face. Target treatments can help address both dryness and oiliness effectively.
