Your Skin Type, Explained!

Every wondered what your skin type is? We’ve got it covered. Take our 6-question quiz to find out and shop our personally-curated products that are just your type — a match made in heaven!

TAKE THE QUIZ>

If you answered…

Oily

Oily skin shines all over! Pores tend to be enlarged, and breakouts are frequent (both blackheads and whiteheads). Though you may have just washed your face, you’ll see the slickness return soon after.

Dry

Dry skin can become itchy and scaly, often in patches. Pores are so small they are often invisible, and there is less elasticity. Fine lines are also more visible than in other skin types and the complexion can be dull. Hot water, UV rays, and hot indoor temperatures can make it worse.

Combination

Combination skin tends to be dry in some areas, while oily in others. The tell-tale sign tends to be the concentration of oil in the t-zone (forehead, nose, chin) and blemishes also tend to happen in those areas, while the rest tend to be dry. Pores tend to look larger there too.

Normal

A normal skin type is balanced, not too dry and not too oily. There are few imperfections, or blemishes and there is no severe sensitivity or redness. Pores are barely visible and the complexion is overall radiant.

Sensitive

A sensitive skin type is easily irritated. Whether it’s with the use of new products, temperature change, sun exposure, fragrance, or other factors, the skin is often red, itchy, and bumpy. Though breakouts less of a concern, broken capillaries are visible.
