How to care for combination skin. Products and rules for caring for combination skin

Combination skin 80% of people have. Combines dry and oily skin types. In the area of ​​the forehead, nose and chin, the skin is oily and porous, usually called the T-zone, in the rest the skin is dry. The skin is generally healthy appearance and even structure.

The skin is divided into several areas with different numbers of sebaceous glands. Most of them are in the area of ​​the chin, forehead and nose. They are more exposed to sunlight, wind and bad weather. More sebum is produced here for protection, which is why the skin in this area is oily.

If you have combination skin and the areas are very different, then you need to have 2 sets: for dry and for oily skin. If these differences are not strong, then you can use regular cosmetics designed for combination skin.

Many people make mistakes when they start caring for combination skin faces as if they were fat. Consequently, the dry area of ​​skin around the eyes turns out to be overdried. This leads to early wrinkles. Therefore, you should take care of dry and oily areas of combination skin separately.

The most common mistake in combination skin care is that they begin to look after her exclusively as if she were fat. At the same time, the areas around the eyes become overdried, which leads to the early formation of wrinkles in this area. You should always remember that a differentiated approach to skin care for this type is the basic principle.

It is better to lubricate oily areas with nourishing cream. But do not overuse it, use it in doses; it should not be applied to oily areas of the skin.

Care for combination skin during the day

Fatty areas will make themselves felt during the day, then use a napkin and remove excess fat. Then lightly powder your chin, nose and forehead. If your makeup has lost its clarity, do not apply too much thick layer cosmetics, better do it again. In summer, the skin produces more oil or sweat, use a spray bottle with thermal water. In case of severe acne, lubricate the skin with antiseptics during the day.

When choosing decorative cosmetics for combination skin, you should be guided by the following rules: the consistency of the foundation is liquid, dry powder and shadows are suitable, and it is better to choose a creamy blush, because the cheek areas are dry.

Evening care for combination skin

Special care – peeling, masks

Peeling– superficial cleaning of the skin, previously cleaned of dirt, with a scrub once a week. Perform a facial massage along the skin lines: from the center of the forehead to the temples, in a circular motion from the chin to the earlobes and from the nose to the temples along the massage lines. Do everything carefully with your fingertips.

It is better not to combine peeling and masks. Do peeling one day, masks the next. Because combination skin has different skin areas. Then the masks should be different. For dry areas, choose nutritious ones. And for oily people, film (gel) masks. The gel mask will tighten the pores, turning into a film, which must then be carefully removed.

Most women will agree that caring for combination skin is a delicate, sometimes even painstaking task. It is impossible to care for dry and flaky areas of the cheeks and oily areas of the forehead, chin and nose.

The approach to different parts of the face with combination skin should be fundamentally different. Then the mixed dermis will delight its owner with a perfect look.

Combination skin is the most difficult type, since choosing proper care It's extremely difficult to follow her. Many women are simply too lazy to use different means for dry and oily areas of the face, and perform fatal error! Just imagine what will happen if you constantly apply matting lotion, or even worse, drying lotion, to dry areas? That is why it is very important to carefully understand what your face requires, and we will help you with this. Below you will find answers to what the stages of care for combination skin should look like, as well as what products are best to use.

Steps to care for combination skin

Caring for normal and combination skin sometimes overlaps, because these types skin there are many similarities. That is why the stages of caring for both types of dermis somewhat duplicate each other. However, there are some characteristics and features of caring for a combination coat. They consist of the following stages: washing, scrubbing, toning, applying cream.

Washing with foam or gel

Cleansing is important for absolutely any skin type, and for mixed dermis this process is carried out with special care. It is worth choosing gels or foams for combination or normal skin. The product is applied to the face with massage movements ( Special attention applied to the T-zone) and gently washed off with warm water.

Attention! Wash your face with cold or hot water Representatives of combined derma type should not! Otherwise, such washing will cause pores to expand and cause excessive dryness of the cheeks.

Mixed skin combines the characteristics of two opposing skin types. IN summer period Such skin should be treated as oily, in winter - as dry. Care for combination skin in summer includes foams and gels, and in winter you can remove makeup with cleansing milk.

Application of peelings and scrubs

Combination skin is recommended for peeling, which should be done 1-2 times a week. For this purpose, scrubs or gommages are suitable, which perfectly remove dead skin particles and regulate the secretion of sebum in the central areas of the face. Therefore, when scrubbing, special attention should be paid to the forehead, chin and nose (working time on these areas should be about 3 minutes). It is enough to treat the delicate skin of the cheeks for a minute.

It is important! After scrubbing, you should minimize air contact with your face. Otherwise, the accumulation of infection in the air can provoke the appearance of microtraumas on the skin of the face. For this reason, scrubbing is best done in the evening.

If a woman uses store-bought scrubs, she must definitely take into account the composition of the product. It should be free of alcohol and alkali. It is better to choose products based on natural ingredients(peach or apricot kernels, ground coffee, etc.).

You can make the scrub yourself. To do this, orange zest, pre-dried in the oven, is ground into powder (it is best to use a blender or coffee grinder). Next, 30 g of zest is mixed with 40 g of natural yogurt and applied to the face. After 3-5 minutes of gentle massaging, the product is washed off with warm water.

Mattifying toner

Complete daily care for combination skin is impossible without applying lotions and tonics with a mattifying effect. The main task of the product is to normalize the functioning of the sebaceous glands and optimize the acidity of the skin, narrow pores and prevent inflammation.

Important! Mattifying toner or lotion should not contain alcohol. Otherwise, alcohol-containing products will further dry out the thin cheek area and provoke increased activity of the sebaceous glands.

The mattifying agent should contain moisturizing and anti-inflammatory ingredients. It is best to opt for tonics containing panthenol, bisabolol, salicylic acid and extracts of various medicinal herbs.

Cream for mixed skin types

Comprehensive care for combination skin must include the application of a cream suitable for this skin type.

Important! Cream for the care of mixed dermis should not be too greasy.

Ideally, it is best to care for combination dermis using two creams. One of them should have a drying effect. It is applied to the forehead, chin and T-zone. The second product should intensively moisturize the skin. This product is necessary for cheek skin prone to dryness. That is, one of the creams is suitable for oily skin, the second for dry skin.

It is best to buy creams based on plant extracts. Great for combination skin:

  • geranium;
  • Linden;
  • thyme;
  • plantain;
  • sage;
  • yarrow.

Apply the product by gently tapping your face with your fingertips.

An important point is seasonality in the care of mixed skin. In summer, skincare products should have a lighter, gel-like consistency. Products for the care of combination skin in winter should be more oily and nourishing and protect it from weather influences.

Important! IN winter period Do not apply cream to your face before going outside. The product should be well absorbed.

Don't forget about the skin around your eyes that is prone to dryness. You should not apply the same cream that is used for other areas of the face. The product should be specially designed for care in the delicate area around the eyes and have a light texture. You need to treat your eyelids with the product as carefully as possible to avoid excessive stretching of the delicate skin.


The main area of ​​the combined dermis is covered with oily skin. Some universal cosmetics promise comprehensive care for oily and combination skin. But limit yourself only to the use of certain cosmetics not worth it. To ensure that the purchased products are most suitable for combination skin, you should follow some skincare recommendations.

Use antibacterial toners

Acne, irritation, comedones and other imperfections often appear in areas of oily skin. Antibacterial tonics will help you properly care for problematic facial skin. Their main task is to eliminate acne and relieve inflammation on the face. Most often in stores you can find double-action tonics for combination skin. These products have a mattifying and antibacterial effect at the same time. The products contain a very small amount of alcohol, herbal extracts, hyaluronic acid and fruit acids.

Skip scrubs in favor of peels

If we talk about cleansing procedures for mixed skin types, it is better to give preference to peelings rather than scrubs. Since peeling is a deeper, more thorough cleansing of the skin, it will cope much better with the problem of rashes, acne and other imperfections of the combination dermis. Common and safe types of peeling are brushing, microcrystalline dermabrasion, gas-liquid peeling and diamond abrasive cleansing method. These procedures are considered delicate and effective in combating skin imperfections.

Acids will help remove acne marks

Often rashes and pimples on oily areas of the face do not go away without leaving a trace. The likelihood of acne marks occurring is especially high among those who like to remove them mechanically (by picking, squeezing). As a result, the remaining wounds and marks take a long time to heal, and sometimes even remain on the face. These effects of acne can be removed with acid peeling. It can be carried out both in the salon and at home. Care that combines the needs of combination facial skin and dry dermis can be used different types acids (fruit, mandelic, salicylic, etc.). It is believed that it is best to do acid peeling faces in autumn, since at this time the skin is less exposed to the sun's rays.

Buy only non-comedogenic creams

Proper care for mixed skin involves using cosmetics that are as gentle and gentle as possible. natural composition. Owners of this type of derma are recommended to purchase exclusively non-comedogenic cream options.

Comedones (blackheads) are pores clogged with sebum. Comedones have a very unaesthetic appearance, therefore, it is necessary to get rid of them and prevent their reappearance.

Thus, the selected face creams must have a light texture and have non-comedogenic properties. In other words, the cream should not clog pores on oily areas of the face. Also, the product should perform all the main functions of the cream to moisturize and nourish the skin.

You can determine whether a cream is comedogenic or not experimentally. To do this, you need to observe the cream in action. If, some time after the start of use, comedones do not appear, the product is suitable for daily care.


You can diversify your care for combination skin with homemade cosmetic procedures. Clay-based masks and the use of cosmetic ice are very popular.


Nowadays you can buy cosmetic clay at a pharmacy without much difficulty. The main advantages of this natural component are antibacterial and cleansing effects. Suitable for mixed and combination skin is white and blue clay. Making a clay mask at home is very simple. The following recipes are especially popular:

  • Clay and starch (1 tablespoon each) are mixed with water until a paste is obtained. The mixture is applied to the face and gently washed off after 15 minutes.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of milk and 1 teaspoon of honey to a tablespoon of blue clay. Mix everything thoroughly and apply to the face with gentle movements. After 15 minutes, rinse with warm water.


Caring for combination skin allows the use of cosmetic ice. Despite all the variety of cosmetic products, this product cannot be purchased in stores. Cosmetic ice is prepared at home. Here are the most effective recipes its manufacture:

  1. Green or long tea bags (2 pieces) are brewed in hot water and infused for about 20 minutes. The resulting tea is poured into bags or molds for freezing and sent to the freezer. The product copes well with puffiness under the eyes.
  2. Another popular recipe for cosmetic ice contains medicinal plants:
  • mint (leaves, 10 g);
  • rosemary, 55 g;
  • chamomile (35 g).

The resulting mixture is poured with a glass of hot water and left for 20 minutes. Next, I strain the broth, pour it into molds and put it in the freezer. You can wipe your face with this product twice a day.

Wiping mixed facial skin cosmetic ice relieves swelling, enhances the production of natural collagen and saturates the skin with oxygen.

Decorative cosmetics for the care of combination skin

Decorative cosmetics are an integral part of care for combination skin. Often, those with oily skin need to disguise existing skin imperfections. In this situation, various correctors, powders and foundations come to the rescue.


If a woman has combination skin, caring for her involves choosing the right foundation. After all, it is designed to eliminate skin defects in the form of bruises, pimples and other imperfections and smooth out greasy shine on certain areas of the face.

By purchasing Foundation, the main attention should be paid to its composition. Thus, the product should not contain heavy components in the form of glycerin or wax. It is better to give preference to light foundation creams based on silicone or water based. Such cream samples are easy to apply and wash off. At the same time, the creams even out the skin of the face and mask wrinkles, giving the dermis softness and velvety.


Proper care for mixed dermis combines care products for combination and problematic facial skin. Thus, powder with antibacterial components helps fight rashes, pimples and other blemishes, and most importantly, does not aggravate them by clogging pores. Such cosmetic options perfectly mattify the face, hiding age spots, pimples, and bruises. The powder most often contains zinc and other natural components and minerals that help dry out acne and eliminate irritation.


For those with oily and combination skin, the rules of care dictate the main task - the use of cosmetics that have a pronounced antibacterial effect. So-called antibacterial pencils will be a good base for foundation. They look like lipstick or felt-tip pen. The main task of an antibacterial pencil is to hide skin imperfections in the form of bruises, pimples and spots from them, freckles, etc.

Important! The antibacterial pencil should be a shade lighter than the foundation.

Apply the product as carefully as possible, exactly to the problem area. If you overdo it and apply the pencil too thickly, you can achieve an unflattering mask effect. After completing work with the pencil, foundation is applied. It completes the makeup and evens out the complexion.

Combined facial dermis requires increased attention. However, caring for it cannot be called too difficult. It is only important to be able to competently combine the subtleties of caring for dry and oily dermis and carefully choose products for everyday care.

Combination, or mixed, skin combines two types - it can be oily skin (most often in the T-zone: forehead, nose, chin) and dry or normal skin in the cheek area. This skin type can be called the most common: about 80% of teenagers, 40% of people under 22 years of age and 10-15% of people over 25 have it.

Combination skin has a healthy appearance, an even texture and oily areas with large pores in the T-zone. Oily and dry areas on the skin can alternate in any order, but problems with the T-zone are usually still relevant for owners of such skin. There is an opinion that mature age Combination skin may change and become normal. This really happens.

A distinctive feature of combination skin is increased activity of the sebaceous glands in the T-zone; in other areas of the skin, the sebaceous glands are less active and practically do not cause problems. Combination skin requires careful care of each area of ​​the skin separately. As a rule, in people with combination skin type, due to increased sebum secretion, comedones (blackheads) appear in the T-zone, and dryness and flaking are observed in other areas of the face. It will help to cope with these problems combined care behind the skin of the face.

IN different time Combination skin requires different treatment and care. In summer, combination skin should be treated like oily skin: be sure to use gels for washing, scrubs once a week, light (non-greasy) creams or gels with anti-inflammatory components. In winter, treat it as dry: cleanse carefully with milk, use scrubs no more than once every two weeks, protective creams(thick, fatty, based on animal fats, waxes or thick vegetable oils) at least 20-30 minutes before going outside. If necessary, if your skin remains dry in the evening, apply a moisturizer at night. Often improper care behind the skin of the face leads to dryness in the cheek area or clogging in the T-zone. The first step towards healthy skin there must be its purification.

Skin cleansing

Cleansing combination skin should be gentle, as it is necessary not only to remove excess sebaceous secretions, but also not to dry it out. Cleanse combination skin in the morning and evening with special products for this skin type. These can be gels, foams, milk. The product is applied in a thin layer, after which the skin is massaged with your fingertips for 2-3 minutes, and then washed off with cool water using sponges or cotton balls - this method is the most delicate and hygienic. It is advisable that cosmetic products indicate that they are non-comedogenic, but if there are no special instructions, then it should be borne in mind that the following ingredients are comedogenic: almond oil, peach kernel oil, Coconut oil, oleic alcohol, isostearic alcohol, isopropyl myristate, acetylated lanolin, isopropyl isostearate, butyl stearate. Remember that if you have combination skin, it is not advisable to wash your face with soap and hot water, as this can trigger increased activity of the sebaceous glands.

Toning

After cleansing, the skin is wiped with a toner or lotion for combination skin that does not contain alcohol. Its task is to normalize skin acidity and the function of the sebaceous glands, narrow pores and prevent inflammatory processes. When choosing a tonic cosmetic product, pay attention to its composition: it should include anti-inflammatory and moisturizing components. As a rule, these are panthenol, bisabolol and various herbal extracts. Toners with salicylic acid are also great.

Applying cream

Mandatory condition: cream for combination skin should not be oily! It should contain anti-inflammatory substances (chamomile, sage, plantain and others): this prevents the occurrence of inflammatory processes. Try to purchase creams only with natural oils, such as macadamia oil, meadow kernel oil, shea butter, sesame oil, since mineral oils lead to clogged pores and clogging of the skin.

A day cream for the care of combination skin should have an anti-inflammatory, mattifying effect - eliminating oily skin - and a moisturizing effect. Night cream for the care of combination skin the face should be slightly oilier than the daytime one. The fat content of the cream is determined by its consistency; in addition, on the jar of cream there is an indication: “day” or “night”. It is also recommended to be used as a daytime during the cold season. The main functions of night cream are skin restoration, nutrition and hydration. But, as a rule, the need for its use arises in women after 30 years of age.

Deep cleansing for combination skin

A cleansing mask is carried out once a week. For these purposes, scrubs/peelings with solid particles are used (of course, if there are no inflammatory processes). Scrubs should contain polymers or polished (crushed) bones (unpolished bones injure the skin). Masks for the care of combination skin should be creamy (they should not dry out on the skin) and contain no fruit acids, otherwise overdrying will occur in areas with a dry skin type. Film masks (when they dry, a film forms on the skin) can be applied to oily areas of the skin. In addition, once a week you can apply a nourishing mask, but only to areas with dry skin!

Determining your skin type
You can determine your skin type yourself: to do this, you need to wash your face with soap, and after 2-3 hours pat your face dry paper napkin alternately at each site. If a greasy mark remains on the napkin, it means that the skin in that area is oily.

Masks for combination skin

Cleansing mask. 1 tbsp. Mix a spoonful of oatmeal with milk until you get a paste. If milk is not available, it can be replaced with kefir or a decoction of chamomile and plantain herbs. Apply the resulting mixture in a thin layer to the face, avoiding the area around the eyes.

Revitalizing mask. 1 tbsp. Mix a spoonful of low-fat cottage cheese with milk until smooth. Apply the resulting mixture in a thin layer to the face, avoiding the area around the eyes. Whitening mask. Its essence lies in layer-by-layer application of kefir for 25 minutes. Kefir should be applied in a thin layer to the face, avoiding the area around the eyes. As soon as the kefir dries, you need to apply the next layer, and so on for the entire recommended time.

Nourishing mask. Mix mashed potatoes with milk. Apply the resulting mixture in a thin layer to the face, avoiding the area around the eyes.

The masks must be kept on the face for 15-20 minutes, then rinsed off with water at room temperature using a sponge. The procedure is completed by applying cream to the facial skin. Please note: home-made masks are applied only to healthy skin!

"Black dots". Often women try to squeeze out the comedones that have formed. This should not be done, since mechanical removal provokes the appearance of new “black spots”. In addition, on insufficiently cleansed skin, squeezing can provoke inflammatory skin lesions.

There is no doubt that caring for combination skin is very important. But in the struggle for healthy, matte and beautiful skin No less important is lifestyle and adherence to the rules of rational nutrition, aimed at stabilizing the microflora and intestinal functions. In other words, caring for combination skin takes a lot of time, but with proper care, such skin will not age for a long time.

I’m over 35. I started to notice that creams and masks don’t help my skin much! My friend Imedin recommended it to me! I’ve been taking it for half a year now, and after 3 months I started to notice good changes in my skin. The elasticity has increased and the color has changed! I read about these tablets that they are designed to take care of the skin from the inside! I really liked this concern! :)

For example, I used to have oily skin, but now I have combination skin (I have oily skin in the T-zone, but all other areas are normal and even sensitive).


Every woman wants to remain young and beautiful, but time is inexorable and one of the first things it reflects on is the skin. We cannot prevent this natural process in any way, but we can stop it. You just need to carefully and regularly care for your facial skin and, what is not unimportant, to care for it correctly.

To choose the right facial skin care products, you should first familiarize yourself and determine what type your skin is. The method of caring for it largely depends on your skin type.

Characteristics of skin types

Skin is usually divided into 4 types - normal, dry, oily and combination.

Normal skin: Soft, smooth, elastic, clean, without stains, shine or spider veins. With age it becomes dry. This type of skin is extremely rare.

Dry skin: Thin, pores are practically invisible, most often in light shades, prone to the appearance of spider veins on the cheeks. Without proper care, it quickly loses the necessary moisture and fats, which leads to loss of elasticity and the appearance of premature wrinkles. Such skin is extremely sensitive to the influence of the external environment and changes in weather conditions.

Oily skin: It shines due to excess sebum, the skin is quite rough, pores are clearly visible, and is prone to the appearance of comedones (blackheads, blackheads), as well as acne. However, this type of skin has its advantages: it ages more slowly and is not so sensitive to external influences like other skin types.
After 30 years, it usually becomes a combined type.

Combination (mixed) skin: This skin type is the most common, it is easily identified by the shine and enlarged pores on the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin), these areas are covered with oily skin, acne and pimples often appear on them. And the cheeks and area around the eyes are covered with normal or dry skin. Sometimes, with age, such skin becomes normal.

I would also like to note that sensitive skin is not a type as such. Sensitive skin can be any skin type, but most often sensitivity is found in dry and combination skin and less often in normal and oily skin.

A proven and affordable method for daily skin care

To look clean, fresh and healthy, skin of any type requires daily care: cleansing, toning and moisturizing. However, do not forget about various masks and scrubs, which are not used so often, but are also necessary for caring for your skin.

Just three steps in daily care

First step - Cleansing
For cleansing, you can use Wash Gel, Cleansing Milk, Lotion - these cosmetics have a cleansing effect on the skin, they help the skin better accept moisturizing and nourishing products. You should cleanse your skin in the morning and evening, before going to bed. Don't forget about your neck, its skin requires no less care than the skin of your face, and it can reveal your age much earlier than the skin of your face.

Second step - Toning
Tonics allow you to remove residual cleanser, help open pores, and also prevent the formation of dead skin cells. After toning, the skin becomes noticeably fresher and completely ready for hydration.

Third step - Moisturize
Daily moisturizing is essential to restore skin moisture. A good moisturizer should absorb quickly and contain UV filters. In addition to moisturizing components, a night cream should also contain nutritional components.

Care for normal skin

Caring for normal skin is quite simple. But without proper daily care, even unpretentious skin like normal skin will eventually lose its excellent properties and can turn into dry or oily.

Daily care:

In the morning, it is recommended to wash your face with cool water, or wipe your face with ice cubes or tonic. Do not use too cold or too hot water. Too much cold water, can lead to flaking and dryness, while hot, with frequent use, leads to sagging skin. When washing with water, the skin can be stroked and patted with light movements, which increases blood circulation, improves skin tone and nutrition. After washing, the skin must be toned with a special lotion. After cleansing, you should apply a light moisturizer, but if you have normal skin, you should avoid nourishing creams. In the evening, the face is cleansed with milk, after which the face should be wiped with tonic or gel (gel foam, mousse), it is better not to use cream before bed for this skin type, give the skin the opportunity to breathe.

Special care:

Once a week, when the skin is steamed and the pores are open for deep cleansing, use a scrub. Then, within 20-40 minutes, you can pamper yourself with moisturizing or nourishing mask(very good for the winter season), it is also recommended to use clay-based masks.

Dry skin care

With proper care, dry skin looks very good and soft.
But if you neglect care, peeling immediately appears on the skin, a feeling of dryness and tightness is felt and, as a result, wrinkles may appear much earlier than you expect them.
Tendency to premature aging in dry skin is due to the fact that it is less protected by the secretion of the skin glands than other types, because the sebaceous glands in dry skin do not produce sebum well. Those with dry skin should consume more fluid, at least 1.5 liters per day, in order to compensate for the natural loss of fluid.

Daily care:

In the morning, to refresh and invigorate the skin, use a toner, moisten a cotton pad with tonic and wipe your face with gentle patting movements. You can also use facial milk, or kefir or yogurt with a fatty consistency (it is important that the yogurt does not contain dyes or pieces of fruit). For best results, do not wash off the milk, kefir or yogurt immediately, let it absorb into the skin, then wash your face with warm water or wipe it with ice cubes. Then you can apply a light day cream to your face; it is very important that this cream contains ceramides, moisturizers, oils, vitamins and UV filters.
In the evening, the face is cleansed with cosmetic milk, the remnants of which are removed with tonic. After which a moisturizer is applied, after 15-20 minutes, you can apply a night nourishing cream.

Special care:

Once every 10 days, use a scrub with gentle abrasives (particles). Dry skin, more than all other types, needs the prevention of skin aging in the form of nourishing creams and masks. The skin around the eyes requires special care; you should start caring for these areas of the skin after 23-25 ​​years. From the age of 18, you can use a special eye cream, and after 25-28 years, you should definitely use a nourishing night cream every day.

Choose lotions that do not contain alcohol, because... they dry out the skin.
. It is not recommended to wash your face with soap; alkali is contraindicated for cleansing dry skin.
. Ideally, you should avoid hard tap water and use boiled or filtered water.
. In the cold season, for dry skin it is recommended to use creams with a thicker consistency, because... During this period, she especially needs nutrition and protection.
. When leaving home in winter time You should not use moisturizers for years. It is advisable to apply nourishing creams at least half an hour before leaving home.
. Saunas with hot steam, swimming pools with chlorinated water, scrubs with coarse particles, clay-based masks are harmful to dry skin; you should also approach the tanning procedure carefully.

Oily skin care

Oily skin is extremely difficult to constantly maintain in good condition; proper regular care is needed; this type of skin needs thorough cleansing. But oily skin has its advantages: it is not so sensitive, it stays young longer, and wrinkles do not appear on it as quickly as on all other types.
With proper care, you can easily eliminate oily shine, reduce the appearance of acne and tighten pores. After 30 years, oily skin usually turns into combination skin; if this does not happen, we can say that this is your hereditary skin type.

Daily care:

This skin type especially needs daily cleansing, and oily skin needs to be cleansed several times during the day. Water-based gel, tea tree-based tonic, alcohol-free lotion, antiseptic soaps - these products can be safely used to cleanse the skin, after which the used product should be washed off with water. It is best to use cool water or water at room temperature; a contrast wash is also good. After cleansing, in order to maintain the water and oil balance of the skin, moisturizing is necessary, but you need to be careful with creams, because. They can lead to acne; a very light, fat-free cream that does not clog pores is best for oily skin.
In the evening, after washing or wiping your face with toner, apply an antiseptic gel or emulsion for oily skin. It is not recommended to use cream at night.

Special care:

1-2 times a week on well-steamed skin, it is necessary to exfoliate using scrubs; it is worth remembering that scrubs are contraindicated in the presence of pimples, blackheads and acne, because. These actions can damage the skin and further cause the spread of infection.

For fatty type, clay-based drying masks are very useful.
Finally, I would like to note that oily skin does not like alcohol-containing products; alcohol dries out the skin, which leads to even more oil production.

Under no circumstances should you wash your face with hot water, because... with this effect, the pores expand and the sebaceous glands begin to work more actively, producing more sebum.
. In summer it is useful to wipe your face with ice cubes.
. If your skin is prone to irritation, try washing your face with infusions of sage, mint, and yarrow herbs.
. It is better to use loose powder; it absorbs (draws out) excess sebum well, which forms an unpleasant shine on the face.

Care for combination (mixed) skin:

This type of skin is extremely common and, as a rule, is the result of improper care; it is worth understanding that such skin needs a special approach.

For this type, you need to select cosmetics only labeled for combination skin, or select products for two skin types for each area. Those. if the cheeks and temples are of a dry type, they should be cared for as for a dry type, and the T-zone in this case should be cared for as for an oily type.

The skin of the eyelids requires mandatory care; after 25-27 years, it begins to need hydration and nutrition, at least 2-3 times a week, but after 35 years - daily.

Daily care:

Combination skin needs cleansing 2 times a day, morning and evening. It is better to cleanse this type of skin with gel, light lotions or milk for combination skin, paying special attention to the T-zone, because This area gets dirty especially quickly. After cleansing, the skin should be toned. To do this, take a small amount of toner onto a cotton pad and gently move the cotton pad over your entire face and neck. We complete the procedure by applying a gentle moisturizer for combination skin.

In the evening, when you apply the cream, it is better to skip the areas in the forehead, nose and chin, since during the night the skin in the T-zone secretes enough secretion from the skin glands.

Special care:

Combination skin deep cleaning, should be done 2 times a week. Use the scrub only on the T-zone and do not use the scrub in areas where the skin is dry.

It is recommended to make masks once a week. For combination skin, masks with plant extracts such as St. John's wort, sage, rowan, yarrow, birch leaves and buds are suitable. Masks made from apples, citrus fruits, grapes and cucumber are also very useful.

How to care for sensitive skin?

Sensitive skin is characterized by frequent manifestations of allergic reactions in the form of redness and rashes. These reactions can be caused by various reasons: stress, intolerant cosmetics, exposure to unfavorable factors environment (chlorinated water, UV rays, wind, frost, some chemicals).

Owners of such skin should be especially careful when choosing cosmetics. Do not rush to use cosmetic products that are unfamiliar to you; first you should try them on a small area of ​​the body (for example, behind the ear, on the wrist, or on the inner surface of the forearm, where the skin is thin and sensitive). Apply a small amount of product to the area of ​​your choice and wait 24 hours, as... the reaction may not appear immediately. If you use products from different cosmetic lines, it is also recommended to test them for compatibility. It is advisable to use hypoallergenic cosmetics that do not contain alcohol; avoid soap and various types of fragrances.

Caring for the skin around the eyes

The skin around the eyes is much thinner than the rest of the face, so it is where wrinkles appear first. Withering of the skin is also associated with the appearance of puffiness and bruising under the eyes. In order to preserve the youth of the skin in the eye area for as long as possible, it is necessary to pay special attention and proper care.

It is best to take comprehensive care of the skin around the eyes, because... universal remedy, Unfortunately, not yet. It is worth noting that regular face creams are not suitable for the skin around the eyes and it is not recommended to apply them to this area. It is preferable to use special products that are designed for thinner and more sensitive skin around the eyes.

Eye cream should be applied 2 times a day, morning and evening. Use a minimum amount of cream ring fingers and apply the cream (gel) with light tangential or gentle patting movements, never rub or stretch the skin. The directions for applying the cream along the upper eyelid should be from the bridge of the nose to the temples, and along the lower eyelid, on the contrary, from the outer corners of the eyes to the inner ones.

Be aware that using eye cream too often leads to slower blood circulation, for this reason it is recommended to alternate cosmetics and folk remedies.

Traditional recipes for caring for the skin around the eyes

Use ice, it improves blood circulation, makes the skin elastic, and increases its tone. To obtain ice, it is best to use boiled or mineral water; avoid tap water, it has an extremely negative effect, especially on thin sensitive skin. There is another recipe that is even better in its properties, this is a one-to-one mixture of water and milk. Apply ice to care for the skin around the eyes 2 times a day, morning and evening, be careful when applying, use light, leisurely movements.

Ditto for good care you can't do without taking care of the skin around your eyes various masks.
If there is a problem of swelling, a decoction of linden, parsley, dill will help, soak cotton swabs in a warm decoction, then place the swabs on your closed eyes; if the swab has dried out, you can re-moisten it and continue the procedure. In case of swelling, a mask of light grated potatoes is also suitable; put the grated potatoes with juice in a gauze bag and place the bags on your closed eyes.

Parsley will help increase blood circulation in the area around the eyes. Chop the parsley, mix with sour cream or butter in a ratio of one to two (there should be less parsley) and apply the mask to wet eyelids. It is best to apply this mask in the morning, keep it on for 20-30 minutes, then remove it with a cotton swab, then it is recommended to apply a nourishing eye cream.

These procedures do not take as long as it may initially seem. To be convinced of this, you just need to make them your good habits and the result will not keep you waiting long and soon your skin will thank you in return.

. When washing, you should avoid tap water. It is best to use boiled, mineral or distilled water.

Avoid getting scrub, gel, tonic on delicate skin around the eyes and on the lips.

You should not roughly wipe your face after washing, because this stretches the skin and may cause premature wrinkles to appear.

After deep cleansing scrubs, it is not recommended to go outside immediately, wait 1-2 hours, you should also refrain from using decorative cosmetics, preferably for 24 hours. The best thing deep cleaning spend in the evening, a couple of hours before bedtime.

Avoid cosmetics that contain ethanol, methanol and isopropyl - these substances dry out the skin.

The skin of the face accepts the cream only in a minimal amount. Do not overdo it with creams, this can only cause harm, especially cream applied at night; swelling may form in the morning.

The skin of the neck is subject to faster aging than the skin of the face, so do not forget that it also needs proper care.

Always apply creams and other cosmetics along the skin lines.

Give your skin a day off from decorative cosmetics more often; your skin should also rest.

Preparing facial skin for makeup

It should be remembered that the quality of the makeup performed largely depends on the preparation of the facial skin for makeup. Each skin type prepares for makeup differently.

Dry and normal skin

Before applying the makeup base, if possible, you can apply a mask with a toning, refreshing and moisturizing effect. Then be sure to wipe the skin with tonic. Toners for dry skin should contain plant extracts; they are good at smoothing the surface of the skin. If your skin is peeling, try using a Pil-off mask (removal film), also called a film mask, it will help remove impurities and skin crusts.

It is recommended to remove the mask from bottom to top, from the chin to the forehead. Cosmetic milk also softens the skin very well and cleanses the skin from flaking. After the cleansing procedure, already at clean skin A day cream with a light moisturizing effect is applied to the face.

Oily and combination skin

Before applying makeup, the skin should look clean and matte. A mattifying effect can be easily achieved using clay-based masks; such masks also deeply cleanse the skin and tighten pores. Such masks, as a rule, contain antiseptic substances and additives that regulate the secretion of sebum.
After the mask, use a toner; it complements the cleansing process well. The next step is to apply a mattifying base to the skin. It is recommended to use absorbent powder due to the microscopic additives included in its composition; it draws out excess sebum, which during the day can give an unpleasant shine to the face, especially in the T-zone.

In conclusion, I would like to say that beauty is not only a natural gift, genetics and skillful makeup. The basis of true beauty is youth and freshness of the skin. Can not be problem skin- there is inadequate care for her. With timely and proper care for any skin type, it is possible to delay its aging indefinitely. long term- all in your hands!

To maintain facial skin in flawless condition, systematic care is required. And combination facial skin especially needs proper care. Owners of this skin type, which is also called mixed skin, have to put a lot of effort into making their skin look beautiful. Caring for combination skin has its own characteristics, and we’ll talk about that.

Combination skin: features, advantages and disadvantages

Combination facial skin is characterized by the following symptoms:

Data-lazy-type="image" data-src="https://kozha-lica.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/img-2016-12-17-14-49-35..png 420w, https://kozha-lica.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/img-2016-12-17-14-49-35-300x195.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 420px ) 100vw, 420px">

It is noteworthy that combination skin type is the most common, and in adolescents and young people it practically predominates. This is explained by the fact that in adolescence, the sebaceous glands, located mainly in the problem area - the T-zone, work very actively. The culprit of the trouble is the male hormone testosterone. It is what stimulates excess sebum production. This in turn leads to clogged pores and the appearance of blackheads (comedones), and often inflammation and acne.

But there is also good news. Around the age of 30-35, when testosterone production decreases and the functioning of the sebaceous glands stabilizes, combination skin becomes normal. And in the future it will not cause so much trouble to its owners. But until this time you need to work hard, because improper care mixed type skin or its absence can lead to premature aging of the face. This is why proper care for combination skin at home is so important.
