How well do you know your skin?

Skin type is determined by genetics, but the condition of our skin can vary depending on internal and external factors.

Everyone has their own unique skin type, and based off of which one you are, you should choose the proper products for your skin.

Choosing the right products for you is essential not only to select effective products but also to ensure that you aren't picking anything that will irritate your skin but something that will complement it.

The Four Skin Types

  1. Normal- this skin type is not dry or oily, is primarily blemish-free, has an even tone and texture, and has minimal pores. 
  2. Oily- this skin type has a greasy and shiny appearance, is prone to acne and blemishes, and has larger pores.
  3. Combination- this skin type is a mix of oily and dry, typically with an oily t-zone area (nose, chin, and a little bit of the forehead) and the cheeks and forehead area being drier. The pores also tend to be larger.
  4. Dry- this skin type has a coarser texture and has more pre-mature signs of aging, such as lines and wrinkles. The skin also appears to have tighter pores.

Combatting breakouts

The weather is changing, and summer is right around the corner! 🌞 With warmer weather, you might start seeing some changes in your skin that you may not like. Sometimes summer means oily skin, clogged pores, and breakouts due to excess sweating, using heavy products like SPF, and more. When you want to go makeup-free, you might need to apply more makeup to cover unwanted spots and blemishes. We're here to help you combat breakouts: Let's talk about facials. Getting facials is a great way to combat the breakouts. Facials help renew skin cells by circulating the blood flow under the skin, causing lymphatic drainage and cleaning out and clogged pores acne, and so on.  Make sure you are using the right products for YOUR skin type. A good cleanser and toner specifically for your needs will go a long way.
