In order to take care of and respect your skin, first and foremost make sure to choose products specially designed for your skin type. Dry skin does not have the same needs as oily skin.
Do this to determine your skin type:
Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and pat dry. Remove make-up. This cleans away oils and dirt that may have accumulated during your day, giving your skin a fresh start. Do not over wash though.
Wait an hour. During this time, your skin should return to its natural state, the characteristics of which will determine your skin type. Act normally and, please, don't touch your face.
Dab your face with a tissue. Pay attention to the 'T-zone' - the area of your forehead and nose.
Determine your skin type. Skin falls into four types--normal, oily, dry and combination.
1. Normal skin shows neither oil nor flaking skin. It should feel supple and smooth.2. Oily skin is characterized by the grease on the tissue. It is also common for a person with oily skin to have large pores and a shine.
3. Dry skin may feel taut or show flakes of dead skin. It is associated with small pores.
4. Combination skin is most common. It exhibits traits of all three of the above skin types. Usually, the skin is oily in the T-zone and normal to dry elsewhere.
