The main skin types are normal, dry, oily, combination, and sensitive. Understanding your skin type helps you choose suitable skincare products, maintain proper hydration, manage common concerns, and develop an effective personalised skincare routine.
An effective skincare routine typically includes cleansing, moisturising, sun protection, and suitable treatments. Products should match your skin type and concerns, while consistent application helps maintain healthy-looking skin and address specific skincare needs.
Acne can develop when pores become blocked by oil, dead skin cells, and other factors. Management may include gentle cleansing, suitable skincare products, avoiding irritation, and seeking professional advice for persistent or severe symptoms.
Excessive sun exposure can contribute to premature skin ageing, pigmentation, and other skin damage. Using appropriate sunscreen, limiting prolonged exposure, wearing protective clothing, and following suitable skincare practices can help protect your skin.
Skincare should be adapted to individual needs. Oily skin may require lightweight products, while dry skin benefits from richer moisturisers. Sensitive skin generally needs gentle formulations, and combination skin may require different approaches for different areas.
