Skin types
Skin type is a starting map, not a lab result. Weather, products, and hormones can move you around.
Use these guides to shape a routine — cleanser texture, how rich a moisturizer needs to be, and how slowly to add treatments.
Dry, oily, combination, sensitive, and normal now have published routine guides. Start in the middle if you are not sure — you can specialize later.
