Sound juicy? Okay, Ladies. Let’s start!
1. What are the skin types?
Consumers of cosmetics should ensure they are aware of their specific skin type prior to purchasing any products. Identifying one’s skin type can sometimes be difficult, particularly when it varies between oily and dry in different areas. For more precise results, it is advisable to consult with a skin specialist (Saiwaeo et al., 2023).
Human skin types vary, each possessing distinctive characteristics and requiring specific care. The three primary skin types are normal, oily, and dry skin. The following delineates the defining features of each skin type (Saiwaeo et al., 2023).
Dry Skin
A lack of moisture, which can cause tightness, roughness, and flakiness, characterizes dry skin. It often appears dull and dehydrated. People with dry skin may experience discomfort and increased sensitivity, which can lead to irritation. Factors can influence dry skin such as the environment, genetics, aging, and inadequate hydration. It is important to moisturize regularly to replenish moisture and maintain a healthy skin barrier. Severe dryness can cause eczema or dermatitis (Saiwaeo et al., 2023).
Normal Skin
Wellness researchers typically regard normal skin as healthy and well-balanced. It possesses a smooth texture, exhibits good elasticity, and maintains a natural moisture balance. Individuals with normal skin experience minimal skin problems since their skin isn’t excessively oily or dry. The complexion appears clear, with pores of medium size and an even tone. Normal skin produces an adequate amount of sebum to keep it moisturized without being overly oily (Saiwaeo et al., 2023).
Oily Skin
The overproduction of sebum characterizes oily skin, resulting in a shiny or greasy appearance, especially in the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin). Enlarged pores are common, and the skin is more susceptible to acne, blackheads, and whiteheads because of excess oil clogging the pores. On the bright side, oily skin tends to age slower and has a natural defense against fine lines and wrinkles (Saiwaeo et al., 2023).
Now that we have examined the distinctive characteristics of each skin type, let’s explore how you can effortlessly identify your own in everyday life.
