Ensuring that your skin maintains a healthy moisture and oil balance can be challenging. However, by following the correct guidelines, you can make the best choices for your skin. The primary objective of combination skin care is to achieve and maintain balance. Here are the essential guidelines you need to know:

Tailored Approach

It's vital to treat different regions of your face differently since there isn't a single product that can dry and moisturize each area effectively. The T-zone area is the most problematic part of the face, and you should use acne-fighting moisturizers to combat it. For the remaining areas, you can pick a moisturizer of your choice, but avoid applying more than two different products at the same time.


Delicate Cleansing

Using facial cleansers with gentle ingredients is essential for people with combination skin. Cleansers with active ingredients can stimulate sebum production in the T-zone while irritating dry skin on the cheeks. A gel or cream-based, water-soluble, sensitive cleanser is the best choice for cleaning your skin. Remember to use a product that effectively removes makeup and dirt without leaving your skin feeling tight.


Warm Water Rinse

Hot water can damage the skin barrier layers, weakening the skin's protection and causing visible peeling and itching. Avoid using hot or cold water, and instead, use warm water at room temperature. After cleansing, apply a moisturizing serum that is suitable for all parts of your face.


Gentle Peeling

Experts recommend that you exfoliate your skin gently at least twice a week. Dead skin can make your skin look dull and tired, and this mini-peeling ritual will help prevent clogged pores and skin cracks while adding radiance to your skin over time.


Sunscreen Protection

Sunscreen is an essential aspect of any skincare routine, but it's even more critical for people with combination skin. For your face, non-comedogenic sunscreen is the best option. If you're concerned that your sunscreen provides too much brightness on unexpected parts of your skin, pay attention to the mineral filters in the sunscreen you choose.
