How to care for dry skin
The main motto when caring for this type of skin is regular moisturizing. She cannot fully receive nutrition and fluid from the inside, so you need to choose the right basic cosmetics. Washing with water and soap is highly discouraged, choose fatty milk, lotion or tonic should not be alcoholic. Choose a cream with intensive nutrition, the day one should additionally protect from wind and sun, the night one should nourish and restore.

Dry skin is prone to damage, so scrubs should be replaced with a more gentle cleansing, and nourishing masks should be applied at least 2 times a week. But deep cleansing is not possible in all situations. Damaged or pimple-prone skin excludes the mechanical effect of scrub particles. Here you need a softer and gentler remedy.

Problems with the sebaceous glands require more thorough cleansing, so the steps for oily skin care will be as follows:

Washing with tap, mineral or micellar water using milk, soap or any cleanser;
Additional cleansing with a lotion containing alcohol or salicylic acid - they dry the skin;
Facial tonic promotes better access of cream particles to skin cells;
It is important! If the lotion contains alcohol, choose a tonic without it, the two products are likely to dry out the skin unnecessarily. If desired, you can do without lotion.
Moisturizing the skin is necessary, even with excessive work of the sebaceous glands, only the product should be lighter in texture without wax.
oily skin should include substances that narrow pores and relieve inflammation. They can be used with scrubs 2-3 times a week.

Skin types
Before choosing cosmetics and the necessary daily manipulations, you need to determine how your skin will react to various substances in each area. There are situations when one cream is used for the eyelids and under the eyes, another for the “T” zone, and a third for the rest of the surface. Almost 80% of women of all ages have combination skin to varying degrees. And in order to understand how to choose cosmetics and how to apply them for maximum effect, you need to know your skin type.

With age, the type of skin in a certain area can change, for example, under the eyes after 30, the skin becomes thinner and drier, and requires more intensive hydration and careful treatment. It is best to know all the basic types and be able to recognize them. To do this, carefully study the signs of each of them. If we do not take into account the subtypes, then we can distinguish 3 main types of skin:
In its pure form, each of the types is rare, most often the skin is combined and each of its areas has features and differences. What are their differences?

In some cases, it is enough to change the lifestyle, balance nutrition, add vitamins and proper cleansing, and the skin becomes close to normal. Sometimes even surgery and medication is required when the problems are caused by germs or fungus.

It is important! All manipulations with the skin should be done with clean hands, washed with soap. Dust, dirt, bacteria constantly accumulate on the fingers. They should not get on the skin of the face!
Adolescence and hormonal disorders can greatly blur the picture, making it impossible to determine the type of skin. Here it is also better to contact a specialist and follow the recommendations. Self-medication will lead to even greater problems.

It is important! To apply cream, remove makeup or apply tonic, certain auxiliary materials are used - spatulas, sponges, cotton pads. They must be disposable! The fundamental point, because on the left cotton pad with the remnants of the cream, colonies of bacteria are formed in a matter of hours, which then safely migrate to the skin of the face.


To the main manipulations, you can add many other auxiliary ones, for example, massage, scrubbing, masks, lotions, cosmetic procedures in a beauty salon, hardware effects.
