Types of Skin

There are several types of skin. Accordingly, each of them must be taken care of differently. Determining the type of skin at first sight can be very difficult. The basic structure of the skin in all people is the same, but the sebaceous glands work in a different mode. It also matters how well the skin retains moisture. The skin looks good with normal sebum secretion. We grow up, and the type of skin changes. However, to maintain the excellent condition of the skin can be by literate care for it.

Skin type can be normal, dry, greasy and combination. Determine your skin type with a paper napkin that you need to attach to your face, and then look at it. If you do not see any print on it, it means that your skin is dry. Remained on a napkin barely noticeable fat specks indicate a normal type of skin to the skin, but large fat spots indicate that you have oily skin.

• Normal skin type

In today's world, even among young people, it is rare to meet people with normal skin type. This skin looks fresh, elastic, soft, supple, and touching it leaves a pleasant feeling. It has a beautiful natural shine, smoothness, it lacks wrinkles, enlarged pores, black or white dots, pustules and red spots. Normal skin has a balanced salo, well tolerates the effect of water and unfavorable weather conditions, that is, heat or cold, wind. All the constituents of the substance, moisture and grease in normal skin are present in a commensurate ratio. You can take care of the normal skin type with conventional cosmetics.

True, some women believe that normal skin does not require any care. This opinion is erroneous, because when growing up, the skin loses a significant amount of sebum. If you do not take care of it, the skin condition will inevitably deteriorate, it will become pale, dry, the wilting process will begin. It will be very difficult to restore the former normal state.

• Bold skin type

Bold skin type is mainly characteristic for the period of puberty. Many full people can also be owners of such skin. It looks rough, dense, with large pores, which makes it look like a lemon peel. The sebaceous glands in oily skin work very actively, so it is distinguished by excessive shine. Intensive activity of the sebaceous glands can be observed in women during gestation, with improper operation of the intestine. Diseases of the glands of internal secretion or nervous tension can also lead to a pronounced fat content of the skin. Some diseases of internal organs cause a decrease or, conversely, an increase in sebum.

The fatness of the skin is often influenced by our eating habits. Abuse of fats, digestible carbohydrates, spices, smoked foods, alcoholic beverages only strengthens the work of the sebaceous glands. Dairy products, as well as products of vegetable origin, will help to lower the intensity of sebum. By the way, be careful, using fatty creams. Their frequent use too can make your skin greasy.

People who have skin with dilated pores know how quickly dirt accumulates in them. This can lead to inflammation and the appearance of acne. In addition, this process is accompanied by itching. Most often, the enlarged pores are noticeable in the forehead, chin and nose. Usually oily skin safely transfers all contacts with water, but it also happens that water procedures are contraindicated, especially with soap. Because of this, a person can incorrectly believe that he has a dry type of skin. However, this is wrong. Fatty skin must be treated, it requires constant and thorough care. Owners of oily skin can not forget about the right choice of food.

• Dry skin type

At a young age, a person may not notice dry skin. It retains its beauty, whiteness, elasticity. It does not show red spots and peeling.

But the natural shine is also absent. Dry skin is matte. This is its most important difference. Dry skin is characterized by small, narrowed pores. It quickly formed wrinkles and wrinkles, it is prone to peeling and shrinks after washing. The water-fat metabolism in such skin is disturbed, salootdelenie very low. Dry skin should be taken care of appropriately, otherwise it will quickly cover with wrinkles, will suffer from peeling and red spots.

The skin can become dry and with wrong care. Dry skin occurs in old age, with diseases of the nervous system or heart. Often the cause of increased dryness of the skin is improper nutrition, as well as frequent contact with water and soap, especially if you immediately after that go out into the street. With improper care, the sensitivity of dry skin to ambient temperature greatly increases. Then and the usual cosmetics cause her irritation.

• Combined skin type

Many people have a combined skin type. This means that the work of the sebaceous glands in different parts of the skin goes differently: on some, the normal salting process is going on, and on others it is excessively intense or, conversely, lowered. Therefore, the skin in places normal, and sometimes fatty or dry.

The most fat is usually the area of the nose, forehead and chin. Dry skin is found on the skin of the cheeks, lower eyelids and temples. Often on the cheeks, flaky scales of the skin can be seen. The owners of combination skin are mostly people aged 20 to 35 years. At an older age, the process of fat loss decreases, and areas with oily skin become dry. Only the nose area still retains a greasy shine for a long time.

Co-mined skin type requires the same, combined, care. Using in the morning a cream that does not contain fatty components, you need to monitor what areas you apply it. Apply it lightly on the back and tip of the nose, the protruding part of the forehead and chin, cheekbones and cheeks.
