There are 3 basic skin types:
- Dry
- Oily
Dry Skin: Dry skin can be seen in people of all ages. Dry skin has a lack of oil, a lack of water, or both. Environmental conditions can make dry skin even drier. Is this your skin type? Here are some characteristics of dry skin:
- looks and feels tight and may have visible flaking
- has a matte (no shine) finish with no sheen and can feel rough
- develops fine lines and wrinkles sooner than other skin types
- often delicate, easily irritated, and usually sensitive to cold weather
If this is this your skin type I would recommend L'Bri's Gentle Skin Care Trio. If you are extremely dry (like me) I would recomend the Gentle Trio with Intense Moisture.
Oily Skin: Oily skin has overactive sebaceous (oil) glands. Oily skin most often appears in those aged twelve to twenty-two, but is becoming more common in women (and men) of all ages due to added stress. Is this your skin type? Here are some characteristics of oily skin:
- takes on a shiny appearance soon after cleansing
- thicker, firmer, and less sensitive than other skin types
- tendency to have clogged pores, blackheads and blemishes/pimples
If this is your skin type I would recommend L'Bri's Deep Pore Trio. If you are extra oily and severely blemished I would recommend the Deep Pore Trio with Aloe Jelly.
Combination Skin: Combination skin refers to skin with two or more distinctly different characteristics on different parts of the face. The most common combination skin is oily in certain areas and then dry to normal in other areas. Is this your skin type? Here are some characteristics of combination skin:
- oily T-zone(forehead, nose and chin) where oiliness, large pores, bemishes and blackheads may occur
- eye and throat areas are normal or dry
If this is your skin type I would recommend L'Bri's Combination Trio.
Exfoliation is extremely beneficial for combination skin to prevent clogged pores and helps control excess oil.
