NORMAL SKIN is healthy, balanced skin, in which all physiological processes, most notably the secretion of oils,circulation of the blood, and the sloughing of old cells - happen in perfect equilibrium. Normal skin has an even rosy color with no blackheads or other blemishes, a minimum of lines and wrinkles, albeit a few tiny ones around the eyes, and pores that are uniform in size and barely visible. It is the rarest, and most desired, of all skin types.

OILY SKIN is caused by over secretion of the oil glands, situated in the under layers of the skin. This skin type is not necessarily bad since it is less prone to wrinkling and other signs of aging than other skin types. This is the result of the oil helping to keep precious moisture locked in the epidermis, or outermost layer of the skin. The negative aspects of this skin type is that oily complexions are especially susceptible to clogged pores, blackheads, and buildup of dead skin cells on the surface of the skin. Oily skin can be sallow and roughing texture and tend to have large, clearly visible pores everywhere except around the eyes and neck.

DRY SKIN is the opposite of oily skin and occurs when the oil glands are not producing sufficient oil to satisfactorily lubricate the skin. Dry skin is thin and often flaky, with pores that are almost invisible. Many fine lines are likely to form, even when the skin is relatively young, and there's a tendency for dry skin to be more easily irritated.

COMBINATION SKIN is, by far, the most common skin type, observable in approximately 80 percent of all cases. As the name implies it is a mosaic of dry, oily and normal areas. In most instances, a person with combination skin has dryness around cheeks, eyes and neck, while oiliness is found in the spell T- zone, the area extending from chin to nose and upward across the forehead. Combination skin requires more effort than other skin requires more effort than other skin types because each area has its own special needs.
