How to determine your skin type?

As a doctor with many years of experience, I often come across questions from patients about determining their skin type and choosing the right care. Therefore, today I briefly addressed the question "How to determine your skin type?"

Determination of skin type

There are 5 main skin types: normal, dry, oily, combination and sensitive. Here's how you can determine your type:

Normal skin: balanced, without visible problems. The pores are small, the texture is smooth;
Dry skin: feeling tight, possible peeling. Pores are almost invisible;
Oily skin: shines, especially in the T-zone. Pores are enlarged, prone to the formation of black spots;
Combination skin: the T-zone is oily, the cheeks and periphery of the face are normal or dry;
Sensitive skin: easily reddens, itches or burns in response to irritants.

A simple test to determine your skin type:
1. Wash your face with a mild product and wait 30 minutes.
2. Apply the napkin to different areas of the face.
3. Evaluate the result:
- Oily skin will leave visible marks
- Dry skin will not leave marks, a feeling of tightness is possible
- Normal skin will leave barely noticeable marks
- Combination skin will give different results in different areas

Remember that skin type can change with age, under the influence of hormones, stress or climate change. Reassess your skin regularly and adjust your care as needed.

Understanding your skin type is the first step to effective skin care. Experiment with different products, but do it gradually, giving your skin time to adapt. In case of persistent skin problems, always seek professional advice.

Take care of your skin, and it will thank you with a healthy glow. And you can do this together with LUM face care cosmetics!
