THE BEST CARE DEPENDS ON YOUR SKIN TYPE

To be able to take care of your skin correctly, it is essential to know what type it is. And determining it is not always easy, since each skin is different and, moreover, it changes over time. However, the skin can be classified into five large groups. Find out what your skin type is.

TYPE 1: COMBINATION SKIN

Combination skin is so called because it is a combination of two types of skin: normal-dry and oily or with impurities. Combination skin has a shiny appearance and tends to develop small impurities, especially in the so-called T zone (forehead, nose and chin). In contrast, the skin on the cheek area is normal to dry . To stimulate the restoration of the natural water balance of your skin, always use a product specifically created for your skin type.

Characteristics of combination skin: 

• have a greasy shine;
• they tend to develop impurities in the T zone;
• drier cheeks.

TIPS FOR COMBINATION SKIN

• Cleanse your skin thoroughly before applying facial care products.
• Use warm water instead of very hot or very cold water.
• Apply a moisturizer regularly (using a hazelnut-sized amount is sufficient).
• Always use products for combination skin.

TYPE 2: DRY SKIN

Does your skin look rough and flaky? Dry skin lacks hydration and lipids (oily). As a consequence, it is less elastic, tighter and, on many occasions, it tends to itch. It is susceptible to external environmental factors and tends to react by being irritated. If you use creams for dry skin, you can restore its hydration and strengthen the skin’s natural protective barriers.

Dry skin characteristics : 

• they are tight and tend to itch;
• rough and flaky appearance;

• Always use day creams with a sun protection factor to protect your skin from UV radiation.
• Serums are the perfect complement to your moisturizer.
• Choose care products enriched with natural oils that help soothe and relax your skin.

TYPE 3: NORMAL SKIN

Elastic and soft, with small pores and a pinkish hue : if that’s what you see when you look in the mirror, you have normal skin. Even if you commit the occasional sin in your care ritual from time to time, you will not cause him great harm. But to maintain its healthy appearance, normal skin also needs hydration and protection. Define your personal care routine 

Characteristics of normal skin: 

• smoothness, small pores, does not give “problems”;

TYPE 4: OILY SKIN

Oily skin tends to produce more sebum than necessary. The causes are genetic predisposition, stress, and hormonal fluctuations. The result is the appearance of pimples and pimples. With special anti-bacterial products for cleaning and caring for combination skin you can restore the natural balance of your skin. 

Characteristics of oily skin: 

• large pores;
• the skin glows;
• tendency to impurities.

TIPS FOR OILY SKIN

TYPE 5: SENSITIVE SKIN

Sensitive skin is more susceptible to external factors such as stress, dry air from heating, or UV light. If your skin loses its balance, it will start to feel tight, itchy, and red. Therefore, sensitive skin needs special care that provides relief and, at the same time, reinforces its natural protective barrier and helps it to be more resistant. 

Sensitive skin characteristics: 

• sensitive to external factors; 
• tight and itchy;
• it becomes red frequently.

TIPS FOR SENSITIVE SKIN

• After cleansing your face, pat your skin dry with a towel instead of rubbing it vigorously.
• Use fragrance-free products, as these can cause skin irritations.
• Pay attention to your diet: spicy food does not feel good on your skin.

TYPE 6: MATURE SKIN

As we get older, many different processes take place in the skin that change its appearance, its structure and the activities it performs. This includes decreased cell activity, slower regeneration, decreased collagen production, or damage caused by UV radiation. Mature skin lacks hydration and elasticity . But with innovative care products you can reduce fine lines, wrinkles and age spots. 

Characteristics of mature skin: 

• less elasticity;
• lack of hydration; 
• fine lines, wrinkles or dark spots.

TIPS FOR MATURE SKIN

• Protect your skin from the sun: excessive UV radiation causes premature aging of the skin.
• Use a special eye contour to care for mature skin: this will reduce wrinkles and improve firmness
