NORMAL SKIN :x lovestruck

Normal skin is neither oily or dry. The skin is fresh, clear and supple. The pores are neither too tight or too large. Normal skin types can tolerate the vast majority of skin protection creams. With proper skin care your fresh appearance is easily maintained. Makeup looks smooth and lasts well; may experience minor breakouts related to a "big night out", hormones, or stress. Watch for any premature aging under eyes, as this area tends to need more moisture due to lack of sebaceous (oil) activity; may experience minor breakouts relating to hormonal cycle.

DRY SKIN

Dry skin has little if any shine. The skin feels rough and can be scaly. It is very sensitive and has to be carefully looked after. The lack of moisture, not skin oil, tends to cause dry skin and wrinkles. Use of oily creams is not recommended as these will prevent the skin from breathing. Chapping and cracking are signs of extremely dry, dehydrated skin.

Dry skin needs plenty of thorough but gentle cleansing, regular stimulation with massage and generous quantities of moisture. It also needs extra careful protection. Washing dry skin with soap and water not only removes grime but also the natural oils protecting the skin. A moisturizer increases the water content of the outer layers of the skin and gives it a soft, moist look.

Use a very creamy cleanser and at least once a week use a facial mask.

Note: Dry skin can be a sign of an underactive thyroid. Serious skin complications can arise for people with diabetes. Certain drugs, including diuretics, antispasmodics, and antihistamines, can contribute to dry skin. If you think your dry skin is from a medical condition then we strongly advise you to see your physician.
