Facial skin care can become a kind of ritual – something not only beneficial and aesthetic but also pleasant and relaxing. However, to create this ritual and take proper care of your skin, you first need to know as much as possible about it.
You know that there are different skin types, which are:
- normal
- dry
- oily
- combination (mixed)
So what is the most suitable daily care to feel good and be pleased every time you stand in front of the mirror? To start, it’s good to find out your skin type, and for that, you only need to observe and self-analyze it. It shouldn’t be difficult since you are together 24/7.
If your skin gets oily quickly in the area of the forehead, nose, and chin and comedones (blackheads) often appear there, while the rest of your face is normal, without oiliness or even dry and sensitive, then your skin is definitely combination.
This is the most common skin type and at the same time the one that requires the most attention and special care. Don’t worry, we have a few but essential tips for comprehensive care.
What characterizes combination skin?
When you know what distinguishes combination skin, you will be able to care for it more easily and effectively. Applying a product intended for oily skin to the dry areas of the face can lead to additional drying and dehydration.
The key to healthy and beautiful skin always lies in balance. That is why dermatologists recommend that care for combination skin be tailored to the specific needs of different areas of the face. For example, whether there are inflamed areas, acne, or hyperpigmentation.
What does daily care include?
Care for combination skin should be consistent and specific, but that does not mean overdoing cosmetics. 3-4 steps in your daily routine are enough to achieve the desired result.
These should include:
- cleansing
- using an active product (when the skin condition requires it)
- hydration
- sun protection
Since combination skin requires care according to the needs of different areas, we will allow ourselves to debunk a myth that says – oily skin does not need hydration.
On the contrary, do not underestimate the fact that fresh skin is hydrated skin, because that means it is well nourished and can take care of itself, plus it will look good. Therefore, the use of a hydrating product for the entire face is truly essential.
Daily care, especially from May to September when you enjoy the sun’s rays, should also include a sun protection product with SPF 50+ – if it’s protection, it should be the best! Sun protection holds the magic of time – it prevents the formation of spots on the skin and premature aging.
Of course, when buying facial skin products, it is good to check their ingredients. Those suitable for combination skin should definitely be non-comedogenic so as not to clog pores in the T-zone and should not contain SLS – foaming agents often used in many personal hygiene products that irritate the skin.
Cleansing – a mandatory step in daily facial skin care
Caring for combination skin can be easy if you have the right cosmetic products available, and biotrade offers a series of products that will help you on the path to hydration, balance, and protection. Let’s take a closer look at the individual stages.
The first and mandatory step in daily facial skin care is cleansing. The gentle cleansing foam from the Pure Skin series does this wonderfully. It is designed for all skin types, removes accumulated impurities from the face without irritating or drying the drier and more sensitive areas.
If your skin unpleasantly surprises you with blackheads, enlarged pores, or acne, the cleansing foam from the Acne Out series comes to the rescue. It will reduce excess sebum without over-drying and will cleanse and tighten enlarged pores.
With age, skin changes, just like us, and it is possible for spots and uneven tone to appear. The reasons for this can vary – from hormonal changes to insufficient sun protection.
Then it needs a bit more special care, such as the cleansing foam from the Melabel series. It contains an ingredient that prepares the skin for the application of products that lighten spots and also care for an even and fresh complexion.
Hydration and sun protection
Hydration and sun protection are the next mandatory steps in facial skin care. They are often those steps we take together, in one stride. We can climb them at once with hydrating products that also contain the necessary sun protection factor.
From the Pure Skin series – the hydrating and illuminating day cream with high sun protection SPF 50+ contains hyaluronic acid and fights the first signs of skin aging. For acne-prone skin, the Acne Out series has a special cream for this purpose – Acne Out Repair SPF 30+.
This is a restorative day cream suitable for combination skin with imperfections after acne. The whitening day cream from the Melabel series with sun protection SPF 50+ is the right choice for skin with hyperpigmentation.
Active care – for problems in certain parts of the face
Sometimes, no matter how well we take care of our skin, we cannot avoid some common problems. Combination skin can suffer from acne and comedones, and in this case, active, specific care is needed.
Depending on whether the pimples are all over the face or only in certain areas, you can approach it in two ways.
The first is to apply spot therapy, i.e., treat only the problem areas. The second way requires treating the entire face with appropriate products from Acne Out, such as an active lotion for oily skin, applied until inflammation decreases.
At the end of this step, it is highly recommended to use a moisturizing cream from the same series. In both cases, hydration twice a day is a mandatory condition for maintaining the health of your combination skin.
For ages over 25-30 years, the Pure Skin exfoliating tonic is suitable, which gently exfoliates and regenerates the skin, evening out the tone and reducing sebum secretion. Combined with the Pure Skin illuminating day cream with sun protection factor, combination skin looks fresh and plump without visible dry and oily zones.
Sometimes caring for combination skin can be a big challenge. But with the help of the right cosmetics, balance, and attention, you can not only manage it but also turn facial skin care into a refreshing and energizing moment!
