Normal SkinNormal skin is generally balanced with an overall soft, comfortable feeling. Normal skin does not feel extremely oily or dry, but at times it can have a slightly oily or dry imbalance.
Normal Skin can be maintained by following a regular skin care regimen that includes cleansing, toning, and moisturizing. If skin becomes unbalanced in certain areas, the area can be treated when necessary with products for the specific skin care problem.

Oily SkinOily skin types have excessive oil production which leaves skin feeling greasy. People with oily skin tend to have shiny skin with larger pores. Because of the excess oil and clogged pours, oily skin types are more prone to breakouts and blemishes.
The key to treating oily skin is to reduce the level of oil production. This in turn will help clear clogged pours which can cause blemishes. We recommend regular cleansing, toning, and exfoliating with skin care products that have deep cleansing abilities and an anti-septic to help prevent infection. Since it is important to have some natural oils, we also suggest moisturizing with a lightweight lotion that is made for oily skin types.

Dry SkinDry skin lacks moisture, and therefore can be flaky, tight, sensitive and/or chapped. Dry skin can also cause the skin’s appearance to look pre-maturely aged and wrinkled since there is little to no oil present.
When handling dry skin, it is important to make sure that you are properly hydrated. Skin can become dehydrated, making it appear to be dry, which is why drinking water is so important. We recommend using beauty products that are mild, gentle and moisturizing to help balance and soften dry skin.

Combination SkinCombination skin means your skin is a combination of skin types. Different areas of your skin can be oily, dry, and/or normal at one time. With this skin type, the t-zone (forehead, nose, & area around your mouth including chin) tends to be oily with larger pours, while the cheeks and outer face are normal or dry with medium to small pours.
For combination skin, we recommend purchasing skin care products that balance your skin. Using a skin care regimen which includes daily deep-cleansing, toning, & moisturizing and weekly or bi-weekly exfoliation, can help reduce oil production, clear away dead skin and hydrate dry areas. It is important to make sure that you are not removing all of moisture or putting too much moisture on. Remember –it’s all about balance!
