Combination skin is characterised by oiliness in some areas and dryness in others.
What is combination skin?
-
Combination skin can be caused by many factors, including genetics, hormones, stress and seasonal climate changes. Regardless of what may be causing or influencing your combination skin, it’s possible to support a healthy-looking complexion with the right daily skincare routine. For help identifying why you have combination skin and how best to care for it, seek advice from a certified dermatologist.
What causes combination skin?
-
The best way to know if you have combination skin is to identify your skin type. This can usually be done at home through simple observation. If you notice two or more different textures on your face, you likely have combination skin. This is especially true if you tend to experience shiny, greasy skin around your T-zone (forehead, nose and chin), alongside non-oily areas. You may also notice dry, tight-feeling skin around your cheeks or jawline, with blackheads and more visible pores around your nose.
How do I know if I have combination skin?
-
Managing the unique needs of combination skin begins with a consistent morning and evening skincare routine using products specially formulated for this skin type. People with combination skin often experience an oily T-zone (nose, chin and forehead) alongside drier areas elsewhere on the face, such as the cheeks and jawline. The key to managing combination skin is to balance these different skin concerns. For tips and advice on caring for your combination skin, consult a certified dermatologist.
How to manage combination skin
-
People with combination skin may struggle to find a balancing skincare routine that addresses the needs of both the dry and oily areas of their face. For example, some may find that face washes formulated for an oily T-zone contain harsh ingredients and feel too drying on their cheeks and jawline. The best cleansers for combination skin are typically developed with dermatologists and contain gentle ingredients to help maintain moisture balance and refresh the skin without over-stripping it.
What are the main concerns for combination skin?
-
Choosing the best cleanser for combination skin is a personal decision and depends on your preferences and other skin concerns. However, there are a few tips to keep in mind. Choose face washes for combination skin that effectively remove excess oil and dirt while hydrating areas that need it. Look for oil-free, fragrance-free and non-comedogenic cleansers developed with dermatologists to help maintain your skin’s protective barrier.
