Your Guide to Different Skin Types

Understanding your skin type is the first step to achieving healthy, glowing skin. Each skin type has unique characteristics and care needs-knowing yours can help you choose the right products and routines for the best results.
Oily Skin
Oily skin is marked by excess sebum production, giving the face a shiny or greasy appearance. Common signs include enlarged pores, persistent shine, and a higher chance of having acne and blackheads. Makeup may not last long, and the skin can feel thick or coarse. While oily skin tends to resist wrinkles longer, it requires oil-free products and regular cleansing to keep breakouts at bay.
Normal Skin
Dry Skin
Dry skin lacks moisture and natural oils, often appearing dull, rough, or flaky. It may feel tight, especially after washing, and can develop fine lines, cracks, or even itchiness. In severe cases, dry skin may peel or become painful. Rich moisturizers and creams with hydrating ingredients are essential for comfort and protection.
Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin reacts quickly to products and environmental factors, resulting in redness, itching, or stinging. It often feels dry or patchy and can be easily irritated by fragrances or harsh chemicals. Care for sensitive skin by choosing gentle, fragrance-free products and patch-testing new items before full use.
Combination Skin
Combination skin blends characteristics of oily and dry skin. Typically, the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) is oily, while the cheeks and other areas may be dry or normal. This skin type needs a balanced approach-using oil-controlling products on the T-zone and hydrating products elsewhere.
Understanding your skin type allows you to tailor your skincare for optimal health and confidence. Unsure which type you have? Try observing how your skin feels throughout the day, or consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.
Tips
To get the best results with Flaunt Eyeliner based on your skin type, here are some helpful tips: If you have oily skin, applying a light dusting of translucent powder on your eyelids before using the eyeliner can help absorb excess oil and create a smooth, matte base that keeps your wings crisp and long-lasting.
For those with dry skin, it’s best to moisturize your face with a lightweight cream or serum first, then allow it to fully absorb and dry before applying the eyeliner; this prevents flaking and ensures smooth application.
If your skin is normal or combination, you’re in luck-your skin is already balanced and ready for eyeliner application without any extra steps. These simple prep tricks help Flaunt Eyeliner perform beautifully no matter your skin’s needs.
