Your skin type: Combination skin

Your skin type is: Combination skin

Typical of combination skin is that some areas show symptoms of dry skin and other areas show symptoms of oily skin. In most cases, the forehead, nose and chin (called the T-zone) are shiny and oily, possibly even blemished, while the cheeks are dry, dull and flaky. It is usually the case that the T-zone tends to seborrhea, i.e. an overproduction of sebum. In contrast, too little sebum is produced on the cheeks and sometimes also around the eyes. Factors that can lead to combination skin include hormones, stress, diet or incorrect skin care. In this case, the dry or oily areas are caused by the skin itself. Overly harsh or aggressive skincare products can dry out areas of the face, while at the same time stimulating oil production in other areas. Combination skin needs moisture and it may make sense to apply different products to different areas.

Find the right skincare for your skin type

Oily skin

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

Dry skin

Dry skin is also referred to as a low-fat-dry condition or sebostasis. It is also usually categorized as problem, sensitive or delicate skin. Your skin produces too little sebum.

Sensitive skin

The main symptoms of sensitive skin include redness, flaking, itching, burning and tightness. Sensitive skin can also quickly lead to rashes with pustules, papules or swelling.

Mature skin

Everyone develops mature skin in the course of their life. Some earlier, some later. When your skin starts to show the first signs of ageing depends on many different factors

Blemished skin

Blemished skin tends to develop blackheads, so-called comedones, which sometimes form inflamed, small reddish pustules. Blemished skin is most common in adolescents from puberty onwards, but can also recur throughout 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.
