How to know your skin type?

Knowing your skin type is essential to choosing the right skin care products and achieving the best results. We offer you this practical guide to determine your skin type and adjust your skincare routine accordingly.

1. Identify the characteristic signs

The first step to knowing your skin type is to identify the characteristic signs. Normal skin is balanced, neither too oily nor too dry. Oily skin tends to be shiny, with enlarged pores and blemishes. Dry skin is often rough, irritated and prone to tightness. Combination skin has both dry and oily areas.

2. Do the mattifying paper test

To determine if your skin is oily, use a mattifying paper on your face. If the paper absorbs oil, it indicates oily skin. If the paper doesn't show excess oil, you probably have normal or dry skin.

3. Observe your skin after cleansing

After cleansing your face, notice how your skin feels. If it feels tight and uncomfortable, it indicates dry skin. If it's fresh and clean, you probably have normal skin. If it is oily or shiny, you have oily skin.

4. Consult a professional

If you have difficulty determining your skin type, consult a dermatologist or esthetician. They can help you assess your skin and recommend products tailored to your specific needs.

You can also contact our advisors who will help you determine your skin type and guide you towards a routine suited to you. They are available via the WhatsApp bubble directly or via this form .

5. Adjust your skincare routine

Once you have determined your skin type, adjust your skincare routine accordingly. Choose cleansers , moisturizers and treatments that suit your skin type for the best results.

Knowing your skin type is the key to an effective skincare routine. By identifying the characteristic signs, doing simple tests and consulting professionals if necessary, you can determine your skin type and adapt your skincare routine for healthy, radiantly beautiful skin.
