According
to the texture of the skin, we have categorized 6
types
of facial skin
as:
Normal
skin
A normal skin is a moist skin. It is neither dry nor greasy or oily.
It has a fine and even texture reflecting a proper balance of moisture
and oil. The pores on the skin are very fine and this type of skin
doesn't develop any spots or blemishes.
Normal skin looks clear and it requires a gentle treatment.
Dry
skin

is produced by sebaceous glands. This type of skin does not retain
moisture and often causes problems during the cold weather. Dry
skin tends to flake and it ages faster than any other type of skin.

and apply an effective cream at nights.
Oily
skin

is produced by sebaceous glands. This type of skin never appears
to be clear as it is easily prone to black heads, white heads, pimples,
etc.

skin

or a combination of both oily and dry skin. A person with this type
of skin has a dry skin around the eyes, the mouth and the cheeks.
