most people think they have dry or oily skin but really have combination skin . Combination Skin is
basically a combination of 2-3 skin types , usually oily in some areas and dry in others .
COMBINATION SKIN CHARACTERISTICS
If you find your T-zone (the forehead ,down the nose to the chin ) is oily , prone to blackheads and
breakouts while your cheeks may remain dry and flaky , you have a combination skin .
Most people's skin changes a lot over the course of the year .Skin is seasonally and hormonally
affected . you may find your skin is oilier in summer and dry in winter . In spring and fall , your T-zone
is oily while your cheeks are dry . When you are on your period , your skin may experience breakouts
causing you to think your skin is oily . But once your period is over , the breakouts clear right up and
you skin can become flaky . This is a sign of combination skin .
CAUSES OF COMBINATION SKIN
Oily skin is caused by overactive sebaceous (oil ) glands . Heat and humidity will increase sebum
production , which is why your T-zone may become super oily in the summer while your cheeks seem
to normalize . In winter , when furnace heat kicks in and cold strips your skin of it's natural oils , your
oily spots may become more normal while your cheeks become dry and flaky .
HOW TO TAKE BASIC CARE OF YOUR SKIN
The secret to treating combination skin is to spot treat your problem areas . cleanse with a cleanser
formulated to cut down on sebum production and use a mosturizer on your dry spots . Exfoliate your
face with a warm washcloth. This helps break down oils and helps remove dead skin .
