Do you have "difficult" skin with an oily T-zone but dry cheeks? If the answer is "Yes", then you most likely have dry combination skin. Let's find out in detail with Katz, it will definitely bring useful information to you.
1. What is dry combination skin?
Dry combination skin is a skin type that combines characteristics of both dry and oily skin. The skin secretes oil mainly in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin), while the cheeks and surrounding skin are often dry and flaky.
2. How to recognize dry combination skin
You can recognize dry combination skin through the following characteristics:
- The T-zone skin is often oily
- The T-zone is prone to blackheads
- Has large pores.
- The cheeks, the skin around the eyes and the skin under the chin tend to be dry and flaky, especially in the dry season or after washing your face.
- Skin is easily irritated and red due to lack of moisture.
- Pores in dry skin areas may be smaller than in T-zone skin
3. Note when choosing cosmetics for dry combination skin
When choosing cosmetics for dry combination skin, you need to pay attention to the following:
- With facial cleanser: You should choose a gentle, soap-free facial cleanser that can deeply clean but still retain the skin's natural moisture.
- With toner: Use a moisturizing, alcohol-free toner to balance the skin's pH and tighten pores.
- With moisturizer products: Choose a moisturizer with a light, fast-absorbing texture, suitable for dry skin. Priority should be given to products containing moisturizing ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin, Ceramide,...
- With sunscreen: Use sunscreen with an SPF index of 30 or higher, broad spectrum UVA/UVB and suitable for dry, sensitive skin.
- With exfoliating products: You should exfoliate 1-2 times a week to remove dead skin, make skin smooth and bright, and increase the ability to absorb nutrients.
- With mask: Use a moisturizing mask 1-2 times/week to provide deep moisture to the skin. You should choose a mask with gentle natural ingredients.
By understanding the characteristics and needs of dry combination skin, along with applying a suitable skin care regimen, those with dry combination skin will no longer need to worry!
