Your skin type: Combination skin

Your skin type is: combination skin

It is typical for combination skin that some areas show symptoms of dry skin and other areas show symptoms of oily skin. Most of the time, the forehead, nose and chin (called the T-zone) are shiny and oily, possibly even unclean, while the cheeks are dry, dull and flaky at the same time. It is usually the case that the T-zone tends to develop what is known as seborrhea, i.e. an overproduction of sebum. On the other hand, too little sebum is produced on the cheeks and sometimes also in the eye area. Factors that can lead to combination skin include hormones, stress, diet or incorrect care. In this case, you create the dry or oily areas yourself. Care products that are too harsh or harsh can dry out areas of the face while increasing oil production in other areas. Combination skin needs moisture and it may also make sense to use different products on the individual zones.

Characteristics of combination skin

  • an oily T-zone (forehead, nose and chin)
  • enlarged pores in the T-zone, possibly also blemishes
  • normal to dry cheeks

Oily skin

Oily skin tends to produce more sebum and sweat, which makes it shiny and coarse-pored. Unwanted blackheads often form, which unfortunately can also develop into acne.

Dry skin

Dry skin is also known as lipid-dry condition or sebostasis. It usually also belongs to the category of problem skin, sensitive or sensitive skin. Your skin produces too little sebum.

Sensitive skin

Symptoms of sensitive skin include redness, flaking, itching and feelings of burning and tension. Likewise, sensitive skin can quickly develop rashes with pustules, papules or swelling.

Mature skin

Everyone gets mature skin over the course of their life. Some earlier, some later. When your skin begins to show the first signs of aging depends on many different factors

Impure skin

Impure skin is prone to blackheads, so-called comedones, which sometimes form inflamed, small reddish pustules. Impure skin most often occurs in young people after puberty, but can also recur over the course of life.

Normal skin

The term “normal” is generally used for a balanced complexion. The T-zone (forehead, nose and chin) can be slightly oily, but the sebum and moisture levels are balanced and the skin is neither too oily nor too dry.
