What skin type are you?

  • Did you know that our skin is the largest organ in the body?

  • In fact, the skin is considered a part of the body, along with the internal organs. However, it varies from person to person, and for this reason, it is divided into different skin types. Only when your skincare is tailored to your skin type will your skin get exactly what it needs.

    Determining your skin type will help you find the right products and routine for you. You can easily determine your skin type yourself by following these steps:

  • Step 1

    Thoroughly cleanse your face of excess sebum, dirt deposits and makeup.

  • Step 2

    Let your skin rest for an hour and avoid using any creams etc.

  • Step 3

    Now look carefully at your skin in the mirror and then compare it with the following skin types.

Normal skin

If your facial skin has good circulation, fine pores, and a velvety feel, and appears soft and supple, then you have normal skin. Robust and easy to care for – normal skin's natural functions run almost seamlessly. It is generally insensitive to environmental influences. Nevertheless, even normal skin requires regular care to maintain its health and radiance in the long term.

Dry skin

Are certain areas of your face starting to feel tight and red while you wait? If you also have flaky patches and fine lines, and a pale, dull complexion, this is a sign of dry skin. Itching, tightness, flaking - dry skin can be uncomfortable. But stress and environmental influences can affect the skin's appearance. This is where proper care and a good routine are all the more important.

Oily, impure skin / acne

Does your face have an oily shine and numerous blemishes or spots? Then you tend to have oily, impure skin. Your pores are usually enlarged and clearly visible. With the right skin care, you can specifically combat skin imperfections and effectively prevent the development of new pimples and acne. It's important to choose products specifically tailored to the needs of oily skin to improve your skin's appearance in the long term.

Combination skin

Does the T-zone on your forehead, nose, and chin appear slightly oily and have large pores, while your cheeks and eye area feel tight or reddened due to dryness? These are typical characteristics of combination skin. This type of skin has different needs, which is why customized care is important. Certain skincare ingredients can help optimally care for your combination skin and address both oily and dry areas.

Mature skin

Do you have fine lines and wrinkles around your eyes, mouth, and forehead? Is your skin dry, brittle, with altered pigmentation, or visible veins? Your skin lacks elasticity and tone – this indicates mature skin. The aging process begins at age 30, as the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid declines. The skin increasingly loses tone, elasticity, and structure and requires targeted care to compensate for these changes.

Sensitive, delicate skin

Is your skin irritated and reddened in many places, and feels tight? Does it react quickly to external influences and certain ingredients? These characteristics are typical of sensitive skin. Incorrect skincare products, allergies, or stress can further stress the skin and increase its sensitivity. It's important to choose gentle, soothing products to protect the skin and strengthen its natural barrier.

Rosacea

Rosacea, also known as couperose, is a chronic, inflammatory skin disease. Typical symptoms include redness, dilated capillaries, and blisters, especially on the face. The redness occurs in episodes and varies in severity. In advanced stages, inflammation, burning, and itching may occur. When it comes to skincare, avoid fragrances and irritating ingredients and focus instead on moisturizing and barrier-strengthening substances.
