Different Skin Types And How To Take Care Of Them
~7.9 mins read
Did you know that every skin type reacts differently to each ingredient? Commercial products made for the entire population may not really be the best bet for your skin! Which is why knowing your unique skin type is extremely essential for your skincare.
Different Skin Types And How To Take Care Of Them

There are five basic skin types - normal, oily, dry, combination and sensitive. Let’s take a look at how to determine your skin type.

1. Different Skin Types

A. Normal Skin

Normal skin is neither too oily nor too dry. It has balanced sebum production and good blood circulation.

B. Oily Skin

Oily skin is characterized by a greasy appearance. This skin type is prone to acne breakouts. Oily skin is the result of excess sebum production.

C. Dry Skin

Dry skin is determined by flaky and rough texture. It can at times feel tight and cause irritation.

D. Combination Skin

Combination skin is a mix of oily skin and dry skin. Usually in combination skin types, the T-zone is oily and the cheeks are dry.

E. Sensitive Skin

If your skin flushes with spicy food and adversely reacts to new products, you may have sensitive skin.
Try This
Take a sheet of blotting paper and gently pat it on your face. Hold it against a bright light. If you see little to no oil, you likely have dry skin. If the sheet picks up some oil from the T-zone, you have combination or normal skin. If it picks up oil from all parts of your face, you likely have oily skin.
For any skin type, sunscreen is a must.

2. Normal Skin Type

What is Normal Skin?

Normal skin is also called eudermic. This means it is well-balanced. It is neither too oily nor too dry. Normal skin tends to have balanced pH levels and sebum production.

How Can You Identify Normal Skin?

  • Smooth texture
  • Fine pores
  • No sensitivity
  • No blemishes
  • Few or no breakouts

    • How To Take Care of Normal Skin

    It’s as simple as this - if you don’t have diabetes, will you take insulin? However, that doesn’t mean it’s okay for you to binge on high carbs and your favorite chocolates every night while watching TV shows.
    Your skin needs to be taken care of too. If you have normal skin, you don’t have to go all out with a skincare routine. However, you should make it a point to stay healthy, hydrated and follow a basic skincare regimen.

    If You Have Normal Skin, These Steps Will Help Maintain it:

    A. Stay Hydrated

    If you don’t drink enough water throughout the day, your skin may dry up and start getting flaky. It can also lead to excess sebum production.

    B. Wear Sunscreen

    Sunscreen is a must for overall skin health maintenance. Direct sun exposure can dry up your skin, cause wrinkles and dark patches. An oil-free sunscreen is recommended to avoid clogging skin pores.

    C. Moisturize

    Moisturizers are a must for any skin type. They keep the skin moist and prevent it from overproducing sebum.

    D. Remove Your Makeup Before Sleeping

    Makeup can clog pores and lead to breakouts. You want to avoid that by taking it off after a long day.

    E. Wash/Cleanse Your Face Before Sleeping

    Even if you don’t wear makeup, wash your face every night before you sleep. Dirt and bacteria from outside can clog pores.

    3. Oily Skin Type

    How Can You Identify Oily Skin?

  • Greasy appearance
  • Open/Big pores
  • Prone to breakouts

    • What Causes Oily Skin?

    Hormonal Changes

    Hormonal imbalances during puberty or pregnancy can result in oily skin.

    Climate

    Where you live and the time of the year can contribute to oily skin. If you live in a humid or hot environment, it is likely to result in oily skin.

    Genetics

    Look around you. Do your immediate family members have oily skin? If the answer is yes, you most likely have it too!

    Large Pores

    Large pores tend to produce more sebum.

    Exfoliating Too Much/Using Harsh Soaps

    Sometimes, what you think is contributing to glowing skin may actually be the cause of diminishing skin health. Exfoliating too much or too hard can stimulate sebum production. Using harsh chemicals, not suitable for your skin type can also contribute to oily skin.

    Tips For Oily Skin:

    A. Moisturize Regularly

    Moisturizing regularly will keep your skin hydrated and prevent it from overproducing sebum.

    B. Stay Hydrated

    Drink enough water to keep your skin moist. This will prevent your skin from producing excess oil.

    C. Wash Your Face Twice A Day

    Wash your face two times a day to remove dirt and bacteria that may clog your pores. Don’t overwash. Overwashing can remove necessary oils from your skin. This can result in sensitive skin and make it more oil-prone.

    4. Dry Skin Type

    A lack of moisture in the skin can result in flaky and rough appearance. This is called dry skin.

    How Can You Identify Dry Skin?

  • Flaky and rough skin
  • Uneven texture
  • Itching
  • Skin feels tight

    • What Causes Dry Skin?

    A. Genetics

    If most of your family members have dry skin, you are likely to have it too.

    B. Season

    Dry skin is more common in dry climates and in the winter season due to lack of humidity.

    C. Long showers

    If you spend long hours in the shower, it can rip your skin of its necessary oils. This contributes to dry skin.

    D. Age

    As you grow older, sebum production in your skin reduces. This can result in flaky skin.

    Tips For Dry Skin

  • Moisturize your skin regularly to keep it soft and hydrated
  • Don’t spend too much time in the shower
  • Pat your skin gently while drying yourself up
  • Drink lots of water
  • Use a humidifier to retain your skin’s natural moisture
  • Use sunscreen to prevent your skin from getting dehydrated

    • 5. Combination Skin Type

    Combination skin is a mixture of two skin types - dry skin and oily skin.

    How Can You Identify Combination Skin?

  • Oily T-zone and dry cheeks
  • Breakouts only on forehead, chin and nose
  • Sensitive cheeks

    • What Causes Combination Skin?

    A. Genetics

    If any of your parents and other family members have combination skin, you may have it too.

    B. Products

    Sometimes, harsh products can cause a change in skin type and contribute to excess sebum production in the T-zone.

    C. Climate

    You may see a change in your skin type depending on the change in the climate. For example, summers may make your skin oily. Your skin may feel dry during the winter months.

    Tips For Combination Skin

    A. Use Cleansers

    If you have combination skin, the pores in your T-zone are larger than the rest of your face. Harsh products may clog your pores. Using a gentle cleanser is recommended.

    B. Exfoliate Gently And Once in A While

    Exfoliating every day isn’t recommended for any skin type. It can remove necessary oils from your skin. When you exfoliate, don’t scrub your T-zone too much. Scrubbing too hard can damage your skin.

    C. Wear Sunscreen

    Sunscreen is a must-have skincare product. Choose an oil-free sunscreen if you have combination skin.

    D. Maintain Two Separate Skin Care Routines

    Products that work for dry skin may be harsh on oily skin. Follow a separate skincare regimen for your T-zone. Don’t use the same products for your T-zone and the rest of your face.

    E. Buy Oil-Free Products

    Whether it's a sunscreen or makeup, buy oil-free products to avoid clogged pores.

    6. Sensitive Skin Type

    How Can You Identify Sensitive Skin?

  • Skin feels itchy and tight
  • Parts of your body have uneven texture
  • Becomes oily in summers
  • Gets dry in winters
  • Reacts to skincare
  • Becomes red after a hot water bath
  • Feels itchy while wearing tight clothes
  • Flushes easily after eating spicy food

    • Are Allergies The Same As Skin Sensitivity?

    Allergies are more severe and can sometimes cause difficulty in breathing and nausea. If you are allergic to dust, it doesn’t necessarily mean your skin is sensitive.
    In skin care, you may be allergic to a particular ingredient but your skin may not be sensitive. It may be able to adapt to other products that don’t contain that ingredient. However, if you have sensitive skin, your skin will most likely react to harsh chemicals and skin products.

    Tips For Sensitive Skin

    A. Conduct A Patch Test

    This is mandatory if you want to avoid your skin from reacting. Don’t use a product without testing it on your hand. Wait for 24 hours after the patch test. If your skin doesn’t react to it, go ahead and apply it to your face.

    B. Don’t Overdo Your Skincare Routine

    Buy a mild cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen. Don’t apply too many products to your face.

    C. Don’t Blindly Believe The “Hypoallergenic” Label

    Products claiming to be “hypoallergenic” may not necessarily suit you. Conduct a patch test before applying these products as well.

    Yesterday, 20th of September 2020, Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo addressed the nation on the measure to take against the pandemic. Yesterday’s address was the 17th one since the Covid19 cross boarders to Ghana. Each address, the president tries all means to put measures in place for the citizens to go by so that we can do away the pandemic. Truth to be told, the president measures has really help Ghana. Not factual though but Ghana can be proud to be one of the first countries who has done very well to curb away this virus. We pray and wish this virus will be totally curbed in our country, though we believe the virus has come to stay with us.
    Yesterday when the president was as usual given his address, it was also telecast on Facebook live. One social media user who was also watching the president speaks which was not connected to what the president was talking about. The person asks the president to set committee to investigate as to why Chelsea player Christensen embraced Sadio Mane to attract red card in the game Chelsea vs. Liverpool match yesterday.
    From Mhister Martin. He said;
    "Nana set up a committee and investigate why Christensen embrace Sadio Mane to attract a red card in the Chelsea vrs Liverpool match please"

    Woman Found Alive On The Sea After Missing For 2 Years

    A WOMAN who had been missing from her family for two years has been found floating alive in the sea by baffled fishermen.

    Angelica Gaitan, 46, was found unconscious and suffering from hypothermia off the coast of Colombia.

    She was discovered by fisherman Rolando Visbal and a pal floating 1.2 miles off the town of Puerto Colombia on the Atlantic side of the country on Saturday.
    The pair initially spotted what they believed to be a log floating in the sea until Angelica raised her hands to summon help, according to local paper La Libertad.

    It reported her first words after being rescued were “I was born again, God did not want me to die.”
    She was brought ashore where locals tended to her before she was taken to hospital.
    Angelica was then reunited with her family as investigators began piecing together where she had been since disappearing two years ago.
    When she was finally able to speak, she revealed a harrowing story of fleeing her home after 20 years of violence at the hands of her partner, who she said had tried to kill her.
    After living rough then being forced to leave a refuge, she decided to take her own life.
    “For 20 years I had a toxic relationship, I was violated by my ex-partner,” she told RCN radio.

    “The abuse began in the first pregnancy, he beat me, he violently abused me. 
    “In my second pregnancy the abuse continued and I could not get away from him because the girls were small. 
    “Many times I reported it but the police took him away for 24 hours and when he was in the house again, the assaults returned.
    “The day I decided to leave the house was after a brutal assault. In September 2018 he broke my face and tried to kill me. Thank God I managed to escape.”
    She lived rough in the city of Barranquilla for six months before she sought help and was housed in a shelter.
    But she was reportedly forced to leave because her partner was no longer living in the city, which sent her into a deep depression.
    “I did not want to continue with my life. A lady lent me money for the tickets and I took a bus directly to the sea,” she said.
    “I wanted to end everything, I had no help from anywhere not even from my family, because this man kept me away from my social circle, that’s why I didn’t want to continue living.”

    Angelica recalls “being on the seashore” and, finding herself “in solitude”, decided to jump into the sea.
    “I let it take me and hoped that this nightmare would soon end,” she said.
    She said she doesn’t remember much more as she slipped into unconsciousness.
    “The man who rescued me in the middle of the sea told me that I was unconscious, floating,” she said.
    “Thank God I was alive, and he threw me a life preserver. They brought me to a health centre where I am receiving the necessary care.”
    According to La Libertad, her family say they last heard from her in 2018 when she left to go to Ecuador to live with her brother.
    The paper also reports that Angelica claims she was abandoned by her family after suffering domestic violence.
    Video shows the moment Visbal and a friend known only as Gustavo came across Angelica, who appears to be completely unresponsive.
    Visbal told Colombia’s Caracol Radio that they nearly didn’t go out fishing that day.
    Rolando told Colombia’s Caracol Radio that they nearly didn’t go out fishing that day.
    “If we hadn’t had the problem with the spark plug on Friday, we would have gone fishing that day and the woman would be dead at sea,” he said.

    “I think this was God’s purpose.”
    They left on his boat, Pamela, at 5.30am on Saturday, and after 40 minutes noticed what they first thought was a log and tried to avoid it.
    “I began to turn about 15 degrees to the right, then to my surprise the trunk moved.
    “It was a tremendous scare, because you never imagine to find anyone alive at that distance. I thought it was something supernatural.”
    He managed to pass the woman a lifebuoy which she clung to with the little strength she still had left.
    “She calmed down when she grabbed hold of it,” he said.
    “I thought I should document it by filming it on my phone to show the authorities what really happened in case of any mishap with her health.”
    He said Angelica didn’t say anything when they hauled her on to deck and was so weak he believed she would have drowned if she had spent any longer in the sea.
    “We immediately returned to the mainland where a group of people helped take her to hospital and fortunately she received,” he said.
    “So it turns out that I didn’t catch any fish that day either, but I fished a life.”

    In the video, Visbal is heard yelling at her in Spanish then switching to English, apparently trying to make sure the victim understood him.
    She is seen being dragged by the fishermen towards the boat with a rope tied to lifebuoy.
    Visbal then struggles to lift her unresponsive body into the boat.
    The pair attempt to have a conversation with her and give her water but Angelica begins to cry as the video comes to an end.
    Local media tracked down the woman’s daughter Alejandra Castiblanco who said she had not known about her mum’s whereabouts for the past two years.
