It is absolutely necessary to know your skin type to ensure proper care and treatment. Your care for your skin is utterly dependent the type of your skin. First, you have to know what type of skin you have, oily, dry, and normal or combination.

If you have a dry skin and if you buy a cream for oily skin, the results are going to be dreadful. That’s why you need to identify your skin type. Here is a simple way to identify your skin.

Just cleanse your skin with a mild cleanser that is meant for normal skin. Then tone your skin and dry your skin with soft flannel.

Examine now. If it is elastic, it is normal, healthy skin. If your skin looks flaky and lack shine, then you have dry skin. If it has oily sheen, then your skin is oily. If you notice all these, then yours is a combination skin.

Know your skin and buy right products.
