Skin Types 101: How to Know (and Love) Yours

Understanding your skin type is the first step toward choosing the right skincare and treatments. There’s no "perfect" skin type — just different needs. Here are the basics:

Dry Skin: Often feels tight or flaky. Needs hydration and nourishing ingredients.

Oily Skin: Prone to shine and breakouts. Needs balance, not harsh stripping.

Combination Skin: A mix — usually oily in the T-zone and dry on the cheeks.

Sensitive Skin: Easily irritated or reactive. Needs gentle, calming care.

Normal Skin: Well-balanced. Still needs maintenance to stay healthy..

Once you know your skin type, it’s much easier to choose products and treatments that work with your skin, not against it. And remember — your skin can change with the seasons, stress, hormones, or lifestyle shifts. That’s where professional guidance can help.
