Have you got a bathroom mirror and some overhead lighting ready?
Great! Position yourself in front of the mirror and underneath the lighting. Now, observe your skin and check for any shiny, matte, or flaking areas on your face. Once you've identified these areas, you should be able to fit into one of the following categories:
1. Dry Skin: Minimal shine, perhaps with some flaky or peeling skin
2. Combination Skin: A mix of dry patches and shiny areas, particularly your T-zone
3. Oily Skin: Mostly shiny skin, sometimes all over
You may also be able to tell by how your skin feels after cleansing; if it's tight and itchy, then your skin type is likely to be dry.

No matter how good your skin care products are, they won’t work effectively unless they are incorporated into a proper routine.
Bear in mind that yours may differ from others people’s routines depending on factors such as skin type, product ingredients, formulas, and time of day. Nevertheless, the basic rule is to apply skin care products in order of thickness, starting with the thinnest solution. This is because the thicker products will block the lighter formulas from reaching your skin.
Skin care routines generally start with a cleanse to clean the skin and pores, before progressing to the more active ingredients, and then conclude by sealing in moisture. And remember, consistency is key; good skin health isn’t built in a day!
