Common Skin Types
The most commonly found skin types are Oily, Dry, Combination, and Sensitive skin.
Oily Skin
Oily skin type is mostly sweaty and oily to touch. It will obviously not be oozing oil like a fluid! Just think of it being a little moist due to extra natural oils on the skin. It will be worse in humid weather.
Dry Skin
From the name itself, it is evident that dry skin lacks moisture. It becomes scaly if not dealt with properly. If you have dry skin, you can feel your skin getting annoying tight with that layer of a white scrape on top.
Combination Skin
This is desired by most and has the best of both worlds. A mixture of dry and oily skin is the combination skin type.
Sensitive Skin
This skin type is a nightmare (for most). If you have sensitive skin, then you know its ordeals. Sensitive skin reddens and inflames quickly and is not compatible with every face and makeup product.
