Skincare routines for every skintype

When you know your skintype you can make better decisions about the products you should be using. Although all skintypes need the same essential skin care the textures of those products need to be very different based on your skin type. Discover the best routine for your skin type.

Skincare for normal skin

The best way to take care of normal skin is with a routine of cleansing, exfoliating and moisturising. Rule number one: protect your skin from sun damage with an SPF moisturiser rated 30 or higher.

Skincare for dry skin

Dryness is caused by loss of skin's natural moisture, which is often due to (sun) damage. Dry skin of any age benefits from a solid routine of cleansing, exfoliating and moisturising.

Skincare for combination skin

Combination skin is having oily skin in some areas of your face and dry skin in other areas. To keep in mind with combination skin is there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. You’ll have to divide and conquer by caring for different parts of your face differently.

Skincare for oily skin

Oily skin is a result of skin producing too much sebum and oils. To balance oily skin it's important to stick to a routine of cleansing, exfoliating and moisturising with the right products. These should not contain pore-clogging ingredients.
