How to Identify Your Skin Type

We all know how important it is to find the correct skincare products that actually work  – But skincare products may look different for everyone, and the key is determining your skin type.

To determine your skin type, you will need to do a bare-faced trial: cleanse your skin with a mild cleanser and then gently pat dry. Let 60 minutes go by and then evaluate your complexion. 

Dry Skin: Does your skin feel tight or uncomfortable when you smile? If so, you probably have dry skin. Dry skin feels very tight if you didn't moisturize it within an hour of cleansing. Usually, the skin around the eyes and mouth will feel very tight and uncomfortable. You might also experience flakiness due to the lack of oil in the skin. It is recommended to use Purvari's rosewater daily for dry skin to help lock moisture in and soothe your skin.

Sensitive Skin: Is your skin red? You most likely have sensitive skin. You might be more prone to a skin condition like rosacea, have extra sensitivity to the sun, or react to certain topical products. If you have sensitive skin, you want to avoid products containing benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, glycolic acid, and retinoids – As they can be aggravating and irritating for the skin. The calming properties of rosewater help reduce redness and swollen spots on your skin. Being chemical-free, Purvari soothes the skin and helps eliminate the effects of eczema and rosacea. 

Combination Skin: Is your nose and/or forehead looking glossy while your cheeks and jawline feel a little tight? You might have combination skin. Combination skin usually refers to skin that gets a little oily in the T-zone area and dry on other areas of the face. With combination skin, you should spot-treat. Use a gentle cleanser and use proper products to treat spots accordingly. 

Oily Skin: Are your cheeks shiny too? That is a good indicator of an oily skin type. Oily skin tends to get congested easily due to thicker oil that can get trapped below the follicle and is unable to come to the surface. Clogged pores can also make your skin acne-prone. Exfoliate and use Purvari's rosewater mist daily to balance your skin’s pH levels and helps reduce oily skin. It’s a perfect cleanser to deep clean your skin from clogged pores, which in turn prevent acne and pimples.

Normal Skin: Does your skin feel clean and comfortable with minimal shine? If so, your skin falls into normal skin type category. If you have normal skin, you more likely won’t get too dry, oily, or sensitive reaction to products, and you won't break out as much. Normal skin types have a great balance of oil and moisture, usually feeling pretty neutral. Those with normal skin usually have smaller-looking pores than those with oily skin. Use Purvari daily to tighten pores and restore the suppleness of the skin, giving you a glowing complexion. Unlike the traditional alcohol-based toners, it gives your skin a smooth look and feel without drying it out.

Acne-Prone Skin: Do you break out around your face, back or chest? If so, your skin falls into an acne-prone skin type. Acne-prone skin is usually marked by regular breakouts and clogged pores. The pores of the skin have sebaceous glands that secrete an oily substance known as sebum. Normal sebum secretions help protect the hair follicles and skin, but overproduction of sebum and overgrowth of skin cells can cause the pores to become plugged. We recommend you exfoliate and use Purvari's rosewater mist daily to balance your skin’s pH levels and helps reduce oily skin. It’s a perfect cleanser to deep clean your skin from clogged pores, which in turn prevent acne and pimples.
