What is my skin type?

oily, dry, mixed, sensitive or normal, there are several types of skin and we do not always know which box to put. Follow our tips to know your skin type.

I have normal skin

This is the type of skin that everyone dreams ... but also the least common. Here are its particularities:

She is comfortable, does not shoot or little.
She does not shine.
The pores are tightened, the skin texture is fine and the imperfections are few or occasional.
This pretty baby skin requires little care: a gentle cleansing and a moisturizer are enough to maintain it.

I have dry skin

Dry skin also has features that you can easily identify:

The skin is tight, it is uncomfortable.
The wrinkles and folds are marked, because of the lack of hydration. It is also more sensitive to skin aging.
The skin peels, sometimes leaving areas of dryness visible on the face.
Dry skin can still look pretty, because the skin is usually thin and tightened. But it needs to be hydrated, and even more to be nourished and repaired. Pamper her with rich nourishing creams that will bring comfort and hydration.

I have oily or mixed skin

This type of skin is the easiest to recognize, because its peculiarities do not deceive:

The skin shines: if the face is fully concerned, we talk about oily skin, but if the shine is localized (on the nose and forehead), we speak rather of mixed skin.
It is prone to imperfections: pimples, blackheads, red patches ...
It ages better than other skin types: the excess of sebum and its many protective lipids preserve skin aging. She has at least this advantage!
Oily or combination skin needs specific care that will regulate sebum without drying the skin. So we put on matifying and regulating care, rather in fluid texture. For this type of skin, prefer soft cleaners: too aggressive cleaning products can scratch the skin and make the problem worse!

I have sensitive or reactive skin

Sensitive or reactive skin adapts badly to external aggressions (water limestone, sun, air conditioning, pollution ...). It is defined by several signs:

She pulls and is uncomfortable,
It heats easily and can sometimes be itchy,
She blushes.
To heal your skin, choose products formulated specifically for sensitive skin, they will help protect it every day and preserve its beauty.
