Some build an entire regimen around one concern\u2014say acne or wrinkles. Others set a goal, such as brightening or smoothing, and stick with it. All are great options, but there\u2019s one critical piece to have in place before getting started: <strong>understanding your skin type and how it can evolve.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of it as your skin\u2019s very own hierarchy of needs. Your skin type should serve as the baseline for every product and technique you choose. Then, once you\u2019ve identified your skin type, you can add on other priorities or goals. But meeting the basic needs of combination, oily, sensitive, normal, or dry skin must come first for a <strong>truly healthy, balanced complexion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ahead, we\u2019ll share expert advice from <strong>dermatologist <a href=\"https:\/\/andreacombalia.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Andrea Combalia<\/a><\/strong> to help you quickly <strong>determine your current skin type<\/strong>, decide exactly what it needs now, and explain the science behind it all. Ready to get started?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-the-different-skin-types\">What are the different skin types?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>They probably sound familiar. The five widely accepted skin types are <strong>combination, oily, sensitive, normal, and dry.<\/strong> Each is defined by a set of shared attributes, much like personality traits for your complexion. These characteristics determine how your skin reacts to products, tools, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isdin.com\/us\/blog\/expert-advice\/dermatology\/what-is-the-exposome-and-why-it-is-important-to-protect-yourself-from-the-sun\/\">the world around you<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a general overview of how skin typing works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It\u2019s largely based on <strong>how much oil<\/strong> (sebum) your skin naturally produces and <strong>how reactive<\/strong> your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isdin.com\/us\/blog\/all\/what-is-the-skin-barrier\/\">protective barrier<\/a> is.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your skin type can <strong>change over time<\/strong>.

Using a <strong>controlled approach and tried-and-tested techniques<\/strong> can help correctly determine your baseline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before getting started, hit pause for a week or two on potent ingredients such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isdin.com\/us\/blog\/isdinnovation\/complete-guide-to-retinal\/\">retinal<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isdin.com\/us\/blog\/isdinnovation\/what-is-glycolic-acid-and-how-to-use-it\/\">glycolic acid<\/a> and physical exfoliants. Then, decide if your current daily routine reflects your usual lifestyle. If you\u2019re especially busy, visiting another climate, or just changed skincare brands, it might not be the moment. The best time to assess is when your skin is in its most \u201cnatural\u201d state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s take a closer look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-wash-wait-and-watch\">Wash, wait, and watch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s one of the easiest ways to get a good idea of your skin type, and even better, there\u2019s only one product and 30 minutes involved. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>First, wash your face with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isdin.com\/us\/p\/essential-cleansing\/4041\">gentle cleanser<\/a> designed to respect the skin. Lightly pat dry with a cotton towel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Skip any other skincare products and try not to touch your skin\u2014you\u2019ll need to be working with a clean, bare, dry face.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Let 30 minutes pass by and then observe your skin in the mirror, <strong>guiding yourself with the information below.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-does-oily-skin-look-and-feel-like\">What does oily skin look and feel like?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>After just 30 minutes, oily skin will likely start to show some shine. You\u2019ll note that your skin\u2019s oil production is evenly distributed over the face, although there could be a few spots where it\u2019s more concentrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p><br>There are also a few characteristics of oily skin that you may notice from day to day.

Try out products that include nourishing ingredients such as sunflower oil or niacinamide.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use nutrition as an ally:<\/strong> She shares that a balanced diet rich in antioxidants and oils such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/beauty-omegas-7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">omega-7<\/a> may also help support overall skin health.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Avoid stress when possible:<\/strong> Dr. Combalia recommends that it\u2019s important to get enough rest and try your best to manage stress levels, as the contrary can worsen skin\u2019s reactivity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-one-of-a-kind\">One of a kind<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your skin is unique\u2014and so are its needs.
