Before All Else, Let’s Crack The Code Of Your Skin Type! Neither too oily or too dry, balanced skin maintains a healthy equilibrium. When everything’s in sync, skin looks smooth and feels comfortable with a naturally dewy appearance and minimal sensitivity.

During colder months, when the air strips skin of its moisture, you may notice these symptoms are more pronounced, with heightened sensitivity. Central heating, hot showers and harsh cleansers are also common culprits when it comes to exacerbating dryness. Oily skin occurs when sebum production (the natural oils produced by glands in the skin) is operating on overdrive, leading to enlarged pores, breakouts and a shiny appearance – particularly in the T-zone.
