Hello,I googled everything but I still can't decide if I have dry skin or oily!
I have a bit of red skin and my nose is definitely dry but sometimes when I'm out I see my skin as if it's sweating.
Would like to hear your tips and maybe if someone has dry skin/oily wouldn't mind sharing her photo so I can compare! (I will try and find a picture of me without makeup hehe )
Thank you!! X

To find out your skin type wash your face 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. Afterwards wait about an hour. During this time, your skin should return to its natural state, the characteristics of which will determine your skin type. Don't touch your face at all or apply product. After an hour lightly dab your face with a tissue. Pay attention to the t zone. Look closely into a Mirror and analyze your skin characteristics. Skin falls into four types--normal, oily, dry and combination.
•normal skin shows neither oil nor flaking skin. It should feel supple and smooth. If you have it, consider yourself lucky
• oily skin is characterized by the grease on the tissue. It is also common for a person with oily skin to have large pores and a shine.
•dry skin may feel taut or show flakes of dead skin. It is associated with small pores. (Though I have dry skin and my pores are huge)
•combo skin is most common. It exhibits traits of all three of the above skin types. Usually, the skin is oily in the T-zone and normal to dry elsewhere.

Ally please don't advertise your own product or company on other peoples threads especially when it does not contribute to the question. It's disrespectful and against the rules.

Dry skin can be oily. when skin gets so dry it over produces oil to make up for lacking hydration. what is your skin care routine?

I was told I have oily skin but in some areas dry. I think its very possible to have a combination of both!
