SKIN TYPE COMBINATION SKIN
WHAT IS COMBINATION SKIN?
Your skin is actually a mixture of two skin types. If we assume balanced skin, combination skin, as its name suggests, consists of a combination. It is usually the case that the T-zone tends to have seborrhea, i.e. an overproduction of sebum. In contrast, too little sebum is produced on the cheeks and sometimes also around the eyes. This means that your skin dries out there in particular. You can find out how to give your combination skin the right care on this page.
Skin condition:
Your skin has a rather shiny T-zone and side areas that are even to dry.
Skin structure & pores:
Your skin tends to have larger pores, blackheads and occasional spots on your forehead, nose and chin. The cheek and eye area tends to be dry, sometimes even with flaky patches.
Complexion:
Your complexion appears unbalanced, shows more redness in the T-zone and looks rather sallow in the cheek area.
Special feature:
Your skin basically consists of two skin types. It is therefore important to treat each area according to your needs Moisturize.
1st tip: cleanse your skin gently.
Do not use aggressive cleaning products. A mild cleanser like ours Cleansing Gel can be used for both areas of your skin. Complete your routine 1-2 evenings a week with the BHA peeling.
2nd tip: Treat oily and dry areas differently.
A little extra effort pays off here. Depending on how different your two skin conditions are, you should treat the oily T-zone differently to the dry cheeks. Jojoba Oil for example, is suitable for both.
3rd tip: Avoid heavy creams.
Make sure you use products that are as light as possible, such as our aloe vera gel. To ensure that your cheek area gets enough lipids, also treat this area with a richer cream like the Retinol cream.
4th tip: Use sufficient UV protection.
No matter how you react to the sun, UV protection is essential for your facial skin. Especially in summer, but also in winter, UV rays reach your skin. It is therefore best to use an SPF of at least 30, as with our sun cream.
