Every person’s skin is unique, and knowing a bit about your skin type will go a long way in keeping yours healthy. There are five primary skin types: normal, dry, oily, combination, and sensitive. Read on to learn more about these different skin types and why you should care.
Normal Skin
Normal skin has a good balance between multiple factors. There isn’t much flakiness or too much oil. It’s also easier to care for than other skin types—just keep up a healthy diet, stay hydrated, and wear sunscreen.
Dry Skin
If you have dry skin, you probably know it. Flakiness, tightness, and lack of oil are all common characteristics of dry skin, and they call for gentle cleansers and rich moisturizers. Stay away from harsh soaps and hot showers, as they may cause your skin to dry out further.
Oily Skin
On the other side of dry skin is oily skin—characterized by excess oil production. You’ll find acne and blemishes come up more frequently with oily skin, so you should avoid heavy moisturizers. Water-based products will be your friend—avoid oil-based cleansers and makeup.
Combination Skin
Combination skin mixes oil and dryness, but not together—in separate areas of the face. You’ll have dry cheeks and an oily T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin). Consider using a light moisturizer on your cheeks and a gentle cleanser everywhere else to balance things out.
Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin and dry skin are easily confused, but sensitive skin doesn’t need to be dry to break out in redness and inflammation. Stick with fragrance-free products and keep away from products with harsh ingredients, like alcohol.
Get Chemical Peels To Help
Chemical peels are a popular and effective way to rejuvenate skin, but it’s important to choose the right level of peel for your skin type. For normal or dry skin, a light chemical peel with glycolic acid may be a good option. Oily or combination skin may benefit from a salicylic acid peel, while sensitive skin may require a milder peel with lactic acid.
Now that you know of all these different skin types and why you should care, make sure to consult with a skin-care professional to find the best chemical peel and treatment for you.
