Know your skin type in 2 min

Rather dry, combination, oily... do you really know what your skin type is? We don't always know our skin, and yet it's essential to choose a beauty routine adapted to our needs, to pamper and sublimate it.

NORMAL SKIN

It's the perfect skin of our childhood that we all dream of finding! It produces just enough sebum to stay hydrated, protected and comfortable without shine. Smooth, soft and radiant, it has no imperfections, does not pull, and the pores are tightened.

DRY SKIN

It's skin lacking in sebum that feels tight and uncomfortable. Quite dull and rough to the touch, dry skin does not shine and its pores are invisible and tightened.

OILY SKIN

It's skin lacking in sebum that feels tight and uncomfortable. Quite dull and rough to the touch, dry skin does not shine and its pores are invisible and tightened.

COMBINATION SKIN

It's skin lacking in sebum that feels tight and uncomfortable. Quite dull and rough to the touch, dry skin does not shine and its pores are invisible and tightened.

THE ONE-OF-A-KIND TIP TO FINALLY KNOW YOUR SKIN TYPE
Are you still hesitant? Take the handkerchief test !
Cleanse your skin without applying moisturizer afterwards, and wait 30 minutes to an hour.
Place a paper tissue as a mask against the face, press for a few seconds and then observe the tissue:
If there are no traces of oil on the tissue, your skin is normal to dry .
If there are a few traces of fat in the T-zone only, your skin is combination
If there are traces of oil all over the tissue, your skin is oily .

SKIN TYPE OR SKIN CONDITION?

Be careful not to confuse skin type and skin condition!
The skin condition is grafted onto the skin type and can concern different skin types at the same time. Skin conditions can also be combined with each other and will be just as important as the type of skin for choosing the right cosmetics.
If our skin type does not change once we reach adulthood (except under the effect of hormonal treatment), the state of health of the skin evolves.
Skin conditions:
KNOW MY SKIN CONDITION
SENSITIVE SKIN: This is the skin that experiences burning, tingling and even redness sensations. The origins of these problems can be various: stress, fatigue, emotions, use of cosmetics that are too aggressive.

DEHYDRATED SKIN : This is skin that experiences burning, tingling, and even redness. The origins of these problems can be various: stress, fatigue, emotions, use of cosmetics that are too aggressive.

MATURE SKIN: With age the production of collagen and elastin decreases causing sagging skin, loss of elasticity and firmness, wrinkles and pigment spots. We talk about mature skin from pre-menopause, around 40-50 years in general.

ACNE SKIN: Acne skin: acne is not necessarily reserved for oily skin or young skin! Many skin types suffer from hormonal acne at any age. Acne-prone skin must be cared for gently without attacking or drying out the skin.
