Know your Skin Type

Our skin takes a beating from environmental factors including the very air we breathe, the sun we love to bask in and the water in which most of us shower. Skin can change with age, environment, seasons, and even on a weekly or monthly basis, womens skin can also change with thier cycle.

What is your skin type?

1. Normal Skin

Normal skin has good elasticity and is smooth and firm to the touch.

2. Oily Skin

Oily skin looks shiny and also has a sort of hardness to it that goes beyond the nice firmness of normal skin—a sort of thickness.

3. Dry Skin

If you see skin flaking off or your skin feels tight on your face, you probably are a dry skin type.

4. Combination Skin

Combination skin has patches of both dry and oily skin, and it requires different types of care in relation to particular facial areas. This is the most common skin type.

5. Sensitive Skin

Sensitive skin is usually very dry, tends to feel tight, and becomes inflamed and irritated easily.

It is really very important for you to be able to identify your skin type. This is to enable you to look after your skin correctly. Also the selection of your cosmetics to a considerable extent is influenced by your skin type.
