What Is Your Skin Type?

Finding your skin type can be confusing…

I didn’t know my true skin type until I was 20 years old! If you’re like me and are having a hard time learning what side of the spectrum you are, I’ve created a guide down below.

Dry

tight / flakey

Generally those with dry skin have (almost) invisible pores & may suffer from regular irritation.

Oily

sticky / shiny

Skin looks shiny, may feel slick to the touch & may deal with terrible acne breakouts.

Combination

both dry & oily 

This skin type will often be shiny in the T-zone & have dry spots around the cheeks.

Sensitive

red / easily irritated

Sensitive skin types may have characteristics of all the skin types listed above, but the key feature is the amount of redness & irritation as sensitive skin is easily inflamed.
