Know Your Skin Type: 3 Keys to Know Your Skin Before Visiting a Spa

When it comes to your skin, one size does not fit all. So, just as you would tailor your wardrobe to suit your body type, you should also adapt your skincare routine to target your specific skin concerns.

But with so several products and treatments on the market, it can be challenging to figure out where to start. That’s why knowing your skin type is essential before visiting a spa.

There are three main skin types: oily, dry, and combination. Oily skin is characterized by large pores, a shiny complexion, and is prone to breakouts. Dry skin is often tight and flaky, with tiny pores and a dull appearance. Finally, combination skin mixes oily and dry areas, typically with an oily T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) and dry cheeks. Not sure what skin type you have? Here are three key indicators to help you figure it out!

 

 

·       How Does Your Skin Feel After Cleansing?

If your skin feels tight and dry, you probably have dry skin. Does it feel oily or greasy? That’s probably oily skin. And if it feels both dry and oily in different areas, you have combination skin.

 

·       How Does Your Skin Look?

Dry skin is often dull and flaky, while oily skin is shiny and prone to breakouts. Combination skin can also be shiny in the T-zone but may appear dry or normal in other areas.

 

·       How Does Your Skin React to Different Products?

Dry skin is often sensitive and may react badly to harsh cleansers or exfoliants. Oily skin may be less likely to experience sensitivities. Still, it can become overloaded if you use too many products designed for this skin type.

Combination skin usually falls somewhere in the middle. However, it’s important to pay attention to how your skin reacts to different products.

 

Once you’ve determined your skin type, you can begin tailoring your skincare routine accordingly. This will help you get the most out of your spa treatments and ensure that you’re using the right products for your specific needs.
