5 Basic Skin Types

Sensitive Skin

Delicate and Reactive

How to Tell?

Frequent redness, itching, burning sensation, capillary appearance and tightness are experienced.

Vulnerable to environmental factors (wind, sun, temperature) because the skin barrier is weak. Reacts instantly to aggressive ingredients.

Care Ritual

  • Cleansing:Use non-foaming, milk-form gentle cleansers.
  • Toning:Prefer alcohol-free, soothing (chamomile, rose water) toners.
  • Moisturizing:Apply barrier-repairing creams containing ceramides and peptides.
  • Care:Nourish the skin with soothing oil-based care formulas.

Combination Skin

In Search of Balance

How to Tell?

Shine and large pores on the forehead, nose and chin; dryness or normal appearance on the cheeks.

The most common skin type. While the 'T-zone' of the face is oily, the cheeks (U-zone) are normal or dry.

Care Ritual

  • Cleansing:Gel-form cleansers that purify without drying the skin.
  • Toning:Purifying toner application to the T-zone, moisturizing to the cheeks.
  • Moisturizing:Water-based, light-textured moisturizers.
  • Care:Balancing Niacinamide care oil formulas.

Oily Skin

Shine and Pore Problem

How to Tell?

Shine all over the face, enlarged pores, prone to blackheads and acne. Makeup does not hold on the skin.

Sebum glands work excessively. The skin constantly produces oil to prevent moisture loss but also needs moisture.

Care Ritual

  • Cleansing:Deep cleansers containing salicylic acid.
  • Toning:Pore tightening and sebum balancing toners.
  • Moisturizing:Oil-free, gel-form water-based moisturizers.
  • Care:Care oil formulas containing Retinol or Tea Tree oil.

Dry Skin

Hungry for Moisture

How to Tell?

Matte, lifeless appearance, flaking, excessive tightness after shower and formation of fine lines.

Sebum production is insufficient and the skin cannot hold moisture. Loss of elasticity and signs of premature aging are seen.

Care Ritual

  • Cleansing:Oil-based cleansers or cleansing milks.
  • Toning:Moisturizing toners containing hyaluronic acid.
  • Moisturizing:Intense, rich creams and night masks.
  • Care:Care oil formulas containing natural oils (Argan, Jojoba) and Hyaluronic acid.

Normal Skin

Ideal Balance

How to Tell?

Pores are indistinct, skin looks smooth and lively. No excessive oiliness or dryness.

Sebum and moisture balance is ideal. Blood circulation is healthy.

Care Ritual

  • Cleansing:Gentle, pH balanced cleansers.
  • Toning:Revitalizing toners with antioxidant content.
  • Moisturizing:Light-textured daily moisturizers.
  • Care:Protect radiance with Vitamin C care oil formula.

Simple Home Skin Analysis Test

1. Wash

Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and dry with tampon movements with a towel.

2. Wait

Do not apply any product including toner, care oil formula or cream to your face for 1 hour.

3. Observe

At the end of the time, look in the mirror and focus on how your skin feels.
