How to Determine Your Skin Type

Wash Your Face. Wash with a gentle cleanser and pat dry. Remove make-up. This cleans away oils and dirt that may have accumulated during your day, giving your skin a fresh start. Do not over wash though. Wait an hour. During this time, your skin should return to its natural state, the characteristics of which will determine your skin type. Act normally and, please, don't touch your face. Dab your face with a tissue. Pay attention to the 'T-zone'--the area of your forehead and nose. Determine your skin type. Skin falls into four types--normal, oily, dry and combination. Know what problems your skin might have. There are usually two 'problem' categories that your skin may fall under, as well as your skin type.

Dry skin is usually dry to the touch, sometimes flakey,
tight, may be itchy and rough. Sometimes redness is a key sign.
Oily skin is the opposite. Its moist to the touch.
If you have oily skin you are probably prone to pimples
and black heads. Also, you will appear to have a ''shine''
and feel 'slick' or 'greasy'.
Normal skin is a combination of the two.
Its not too dry and not too greasy, with little to no break outs.
Hope this helps, good luck!
