- Wash your face: Start by washing your face with a gentle cleanser and pat it dry with a clean towel.
- Wait for an hour: Wait for about an hour without applying any products on your skin. This is to allow your skin to return to its natural state.
- Check for shine: If your skin looks shiny or oily, you likely have oily skin. If it feels tight, flaky, or rough, you may have dry skin.
- Check for combination skin: If you have an oily T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) but dry cheeks, you may have combination skin.
- Check for sensitivity: If your skin feels irritated or itchy, you may have sensitive skin.
- Check for normal skin: If your skin feels balanced and doesn’t show any of the above signs, you may have normal skin.
- Seek professional advice: If you’re still unsure about your skin type or have concerns about your skin, consult a dermatologist or a licensed skincare professional.
As we know there are several skin types: oily, dry, combination, sensitive and normal. To determine your skin type, follow these tips.
Remember that your skin type can change over time due to factors like age, hormonal changes, and environmental factors, so it’s important to regularly reassess your skin type and adjust your skincare routine accordingly.
