Combination Skin
Combination skin varies between oily and dry in different areas, making it a mix of both types.
It is the most common skin type among Japanese women and can also appear alongside sensitive skin. While oil is produced to protect the skin, excessive oil can oxidize, becoming a breeding ground for bacteria and causing unpleasant odors. On the other hand, dryness reduces the skin's barrier function, making it more susceptible to external irritants and skin issues. Both conditions are troublesome, but with appropriate care, achieving healthy skin is possible.
Daily Skincare Routine
Unlike simple oily or dry skin, combination skin requires different approaches for different areas.
- Cleansing: Opt for a cleanser with clay. Focus on cleansing the T-zone (forehead and nose) and avoid friction, as it can damage the skin and lead to excess oil production. For the cheeks and eye areas, which may be drier, wash lightly and avoid excessive scrubbing.
- T-Zone Care: Use a refreshing toner with vitamin C or vitamin C derivatives, and add a very small amount of oil-containing lotion or serum. It's generally better to avoid using too much oil on the T-zone.
- Dry Areas Care: For drier areas like the cheeks, use a moisturizing toner and apply a lotion or oil as needed. If you prefer a refreshing toner, you can add a bit more lotion or serum, or a beauty oil, specifically to the T-zone.
By adjusting your skincare routine to the needs of different areas of your face, you can effectively manage combination skin and work towards achieving a balanced, healthy complexion.
Internal Balance and Hydration
Imbalances within the body, such as those in the gut, can manifest on the skin. If you're experiencing symptoms like constipation or diarrhea, it's important to focus on improving these internal issues rather than just addressing your skin.
Additionally, be mindful of drinking water regularly. Drinking large amounts of water all at once can prevent proper hydration and lead to increased thirst, creating a vicious cycle. To improve circulation and overall well-being, try to stay warm and engage in full-body exercise.
