How can I determine my skin type for product selection?

Asked 3 months ago
Determining your skin type is essential for selecting the right skincare products, as different skin types require different formulations to achieve optimal results. To begin, examine your skin after cleansing it and allowing it to rest for about an hour without applying any products. Normal skin feels comfortable and balanced, while oily skin appears shiny, particularly in the T-zone, and may have larger pores. Dry skin often feels tight, rough, or flaky, and may present with redness or irritation. Combination skin exhibits characteristics of more than one skin type, usually with oiliness in the T-zone and dryness in other areas. Sensitive skin may react with redness, burning, or irritation to certain products or environmental factors. It can be helpful to observe how your skin feels throughout the day and how it responds to various products. By identifying your skin type, you can choose products from SkinCareRX.com that are specifically formulated to address your individual needs, leading to better outcomes for your skincare routine.
