Treatment and care for normal skin types include cleaning with face washes designed for normal skin types, once or twice daily, based on your preference. Cleanse with alcohol free toner that hydrates skin as well.
2. oily skin type:-
Many people has oily skin. If you have oily skin, you are prone to acne, blackheads and spots. Your skin probably looks shiny and thick. Just as with any skin type, taking certain precautions and special care can help reduce skin problems.
Oily skin is perpetually shiny, and even after a wash it tends to secrete oil, getting back to being as slick as ever. This type of skin displays larger generally enlarged pores. Prone to forming pimples, acne, blackheads and white heads, oily skin tends to be coarse and bumpy, usually from spots and zits formed.
The following are tips for taking care of oily skin.
- If you have oil build up in between facial washings, use a medicated pad or blotting paper to remove excess oil. These products have the added benefit of being portable, allowing you to freshen up your face no matter where you are.
- Oily skin still needs to be moisturized, but be careful to choose the right moisturizer. Look for water based or oil-free moisturizers and stay away from creams and heavy moisturizers.
- Exfoliate once a week to help loosen and remove dirt and oil in your pores.
- No matter how tempted, don’t pick, pop or squeeze pimples as it can cause scarring and leave red spots on your face.
- Wash your face twice a day – once in the morning and once before bed. Washing more often can strip your skin of all the natural moisturizers and increase oil production. The only time you should wash your face more than twice a day is if you have been perspiring.
3. Dry skin type:-
Dry skin is easily prone and sensitive to harsh effects from prolonged exposure to extreme sun, strong winds, as well as cold temperatures. A frequent complaint with dry skin is its absence of elasticity. You can better care for your dry skin clean your face once daily with a cream based face cleanser with warm water.
Since your skin is prone to dryness you should use a creamy cleanser, which can both clean your skin as well as restore lost moisture.
You can exfoliate your skin only once a week to remove dead cells and dirt. Make sure you don’t scrub too hard or for too long.
You need to use a skin cream or a heavy moisturizer at least twice a day.
Never use soap on your face. Try using shaving creams instead of shaving gels as the latter further dry the skin.
The following are tips for taking care of dry skin.
- Dry skin only needs to be cleansed ONCE a day (and no more than TWICE a day) to prevent drying out your skin even more but the most important dry skin care tip is…
- A Humidifier will help your dry skin condition improve faster by keeping more moisture in the air so keep your humidifier on day & night because air conditioners will quickly dry out your skin during the winter & summer.
- Take shorter showers and baths, no more than once daily.
- Use mild, gentle soaps or cleansers. Avoid deodorant soaps.
- Apply a rich moisturiser right after bathing. Ointments and creams may work better than lotions for dry skin. Reapply as needed throughout the day.
