Your skin type: Blemished skin

Your skin type is: Impure skin

Blemished skin is prone to 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. Lifestyle, diet, hormones and genes play a major role in this. In most cases, the combination of excessive sebum production and keratinization is the basis for minor inflammations of the sebaceous glands and hair follicles. Too much sebum is a breeding ground for some bacteria that are found on our skin. Propionibacterium acnes, which gives acne its name, feels particularly at home here and metabolizes fatty acids on an assembly line. In the case of blemished skin, the aim is to rebalance sebum production. Overly harsh, aggressive cleansing can also have an impact on sebum production. If too much sebum is removed from the skin, it reacts by producing even more sebum - creating a vicious circle. First and foremost, your skin needs moisture, which you should provide and an intact skin barrier.

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.

Combination skin

It is typical for combination skin 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.

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.
