Skin types

Knowing your skin type can help you choosing the right skincare products and skincare regime. Our skin type is genetically determined however certain lifestyle choices can impact on the health of our skin.

Some skin types are more prone to blemishes than others.

Research has shown that changes in hormones (e.g. during puberty or pregnancy) are the underlying reason why some people have more troubles with blemishes than others regardless of their skin type. 

Overall there are five different skin types, namely:

• Oily skin

• Combination skin

• Dry skin

• Sensitive skin

• Normal skin

Each skin type possesses different characteristics and needs individual care to help break the cycle of blemishes.
