There are five common skin types, each with distinct features that affect how you should care for your skin.

1. Normal Skin

   • Balanced moisture and oil levels
   • Smooth texture with few imperfections
   • Barely visible pores and a radiant complexion

2. Dry Skin

   • Feels tight or flaky, may be rough or sensitive
   • Can appear dull or cracked due to lack of moisture
   • Often needs extra hydration and gentle care

3. Oily Skin

   • Produces excess oil, leading to shine and enlarged pores
   • More prone to acne and blackheads
   • Oiliness often affects the entire face or specific areas

4. Combination Skin

   • Mix of oily and dry areas, typically oily in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin)
   • May have larger pores and blackheads in oily zones, dryness elsewhere
   • Requires tailored care for different areas

5. Sensitive Skin

   • Prone to redness, itching, burning, or irritation
   • Reacts easily to certain products or environmental factors
   • Needs gentle, hypoallergenic skincare

Knowing your skin type helps you choose the right products and treatments to keep your skin healthy and comfortable. If you experience persistent issues like severe dryness, irritation, or acne, it’s best to consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.
