How to Choose the Right Skincare Products for Your Skin Type

February 21, 2023 2 min read

Choosing the right skincare products for your skin type can be a tricky and difficult task. There are many factors to consider including lifestyle, age, skin type, and skin goals when selecting the right products for your skin care needs. At Blended Skin, our goal is to help you find the best products that fit your needs to help keep your skin healthy and youthful.

When deciding what skincare products to buy, the first step is understanding your skin type. If you don’t know your skin type, you can test it by washing your face and patting it dry. Wait an hour, then look in a mirror. If your skin is oily, you will see shiny spots across your cheeks and forehead. If your skin is dry, you will notice dry skin patches in the same areas. Combo skin is usually a combination of both.

Once you’ve identified your skin type, the next step is to choose the right skincare products for it. Oily skin may require larger amounts of cleanser, astringents, moisturizers, and other oil-free products. If you have dry skin, look for hydrating products with oils and humectants that bind moisture to your skin and prevent it from drying out. Combo skin requires a combination of both types of products to help keep all areas balanced.

At Blended, we have a range of skincare products tailored to all skin types, from cleansers that help remove dirt and excess oils to moisturizers to nourish and hydrate your skin. We also have treatments that help exfoliate and balance your skin like a facial peel, which can help correct sun damage and improve the overall texture of your skin.

When selecting skincare products, it is best to start with a small selection of items and then add more as you observe how your skin responds. Look for keywords like 'non-comedogenic' or 'hypoallergenic' and read the ingredients list carefully to make sure that the products don't contain any harsh chemicals. Additionally, make sure any products you use are SPF-based if you plan to go out in the sun and look for products with antioxidants and vitamins like Vitamin C or Vitamin E to help protect your skin and keep it healthy.

At our med spas, we strive to ensure our clients are using the right products for their skin type and goals. Providing you with the right recommendations and treatments to make sure your skin is looking and feeling its best is our top priority. With a team of experienced and knowledgeable professionals, we can help you find the perfect skincare regimen tailored to you.
