DESCRIPTION
A normal skin type means you have balanced sebum production and good blood circulation. Your skin is neither too oily or too dry.
IDENTIFIERS
Smooth texture | Fine pores | Not sensitive | Little to no breakouts
TIPS/TRICKS
• Stay hydrated – drinking a lot of water can prevent dry, flaky skin
• Wear sunscreen daily
• Continue to moisturize
• Always remove makeup before sleeping
DESCRIPTION
The main characteristic of oily skin is a greasy appearance. This skin type is the most prone to breakouts and blemishes due to the excess production of sebum.
IDENTIFIERS
Greasy appearance | Large/open pores | Prone to breakouts
TIPS/TRICKS
• Be aware of hormonal changes
• Don’t over-exfoliate or use harsh soaps
• Wash your face twice a day
• Use oil free makeup products (non-comedogenic)
• Moisturize – try a lightweight, oil free moisturizer to reduce the greasy feel
DESCRIPTION
Dry skin will have a rough, flaky texture and sometimes feel tight and irritated.

Rough/flaky skin | Uneven texture | Feels tight | Itchy
TIPS/TRICKS
• Moisturize often and drink a lot of water to stay hydrated
• Cold, dry seasons/climates can worsen or cause dry skin
• Gently pat your skin dry instead of rubbing/wiping
• Use a humidifier to retain moisture
DESCRIPTION
You may have sensitive skin if you feel like your skin is constantly changing, whether that be from oily to dry, red and blotchy to clear, irritated to smooth, etc.
IDENTIFIERS

TIPS/TRICKS

• Keep your skincare routine to a minimum – try only using a cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen
• Stay away from harsh ingredients and be mindful of what products are made of
