The different skin types
We do not all have the same skin and each requires special care depending on its type or condition.
NORMAL SKIN
Normal skin generally refers to skin that is well balanced between moisture and lipids. The skin produces everything in sufficient quantity to have healthy skin without inconvenience. Normal skin does not feel tight, shiny or react to temperature changes. She can still be subject to external aggressions that will modify her condition: dehydrated, sensitive, etc.
DRY SKIN
Dry skin is skin that lacks lipids because the hydrolipidic film does not produce enough sebum to protect the skin. It therefore reacts to external conditions by drying out very quickly. The reactions are a rough touch, constant tugging and she peels more easily. You can see very dry patches appear in places or streaks, especially under the eyes.
COMBINATION SKIN
The most common skin type in adulthood! It is characterized by a mixture of two skin types: dry/normal and oily depending on the area. The skin does not produce sebum evenly. There is both too much production in the T zone: forehead, nose and chin and, on the contrary, a good or too little production in the cheeks. The T zone has shiny skin, dilated pores and imperfections such as acne pimples or blackheads. The skin may be dull and gray.
OILY SKIN
Oily skin is due to an overproduction of lipids, therefore of sebum, giving it a shiny appearance. It is manifested by shiny skin, dilated and visible pores. The skin is also thick and dull with a fairly irregular grain. Oily skin is much more likely to develop blemishes such as comedones, pimples or acne. It nevertheless remains less fragile than dry skin because the lipid barrier protects it from the outside, and is subject to skin aging later.
