Portrait of a woman with clear, radiant skin

Your skin

By skin type

Start with what you have

Skin type describes what you live with every day; a concern describes what you want to correct. The two intersect, and most routines start here.

Unsure between two types? Skin that feels tight in the morning and shiny in the afternoon is combination, not oily. And oily skin can be dehydrated: that’s a lack of water, not oil.

Normal skin

Balanced, neither tight nor shiny. It needs maintaining rather than correcting.

Combination skin

Shiny T-zone, drier cheeks. Two skins on one face.

Oily skin

Excess sebum, visible pores. Regulate without stripping, to avoid the rebound effect.

Dry skin

It lacks lipids. Butters, oils and ceramides to rebuild the barrier.

Dehydrated skin

It lacks water, not oil. Oily skin can be dehydrated.

Sensitive skin

It reacts quickly and takes time to calm down. Short, fragrance-free formulas.

Mature skin

Declining firmness and density. Cell renewal and collagen support.
