Dab your face with a tissue

Wash your face and pat it dry with a T-Zone region after an hour. Examine the tissue to see whether the oil has rubbed off on it. If that’s the case, you have oily or combination skin.

Take note of how your skin feels

If you have dry skin, your face will feel tight, whereas oily skin will feel and look cleaner. Your T-zone will feel clean, but your cheeks will feel tight if you have combination skin.

Analyse your skin in the mirror

If you observe red, tight, and flaky patches all over your face when you look in the mirror, you most likely have dry and/or sensitive skin. If your face is sticky all over, you have oily skin. If you have dry cheeks and oily T-Zone (Forehead & Nose) it clearly means that you have combination skin.

After identifying your skin now you can create your own skincare routine by tailoring the product based on your skin type. Always choose your products wisely and never forget to do a patch test before buying.
