What’s Your Skin Type? Take the Quiz and Let Nature Do the Rest
Ever feel overwhelmed by all the skincare options out there? You’re not alone—and we’ve got something to help. Our quick and helpful skin type quiz is designed to take the mystery out of your skincare routine. In just a few minutes, you’ll know whether you’re working with oily, dry, combination, or normal skin—and we’ll point you toward the natural ingredients that love your skin type back.
Oily Skin
If your skin tends to look shiny by mid-morning or you frequently deal with clogged pores and breakouts, you're likely working with oily skin. This skin type benefits from clarifying and detoxifying ingredients that help manage sebum production without stripping the skin's natural barrier. Think activated charcoal, kaolin clay, tea tree oil, and witch hazel—gentle yet effective allies that absorb excess oil and purify the skin. The key is to keep your pores clean while maintaining hydration, so look for lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizers that won’t clog pores. Regular exfoliation (1-2 per week) can also help keep the skin smooth and free of buildup.
Dry Skin
Dry skin often feels tight, rough, or even flaky—especially after washing. It craves rich, moisture-locking ingredients to restore softness and elasticity. Look for products with shea butter, avocado oil, oat extract, and glycerin, which deeply hydrate and soothe. Hydrating cleansers that don’t foam too aggressively are ideal, as they clean without over-drying. Layering moisture—starting with a gentle toner, followed by a hydrating serum and a nourishing moisturizer—can create a cushion of lasting hydration. Treat your skin like you would a delicate fabric: gentle and with plenty of love.
Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin deserves extra TLC. If your skin reacts easily—turning red, itchy, or irritated with new products—you’re in this camp. Your best allies are calming, non-irritating ingredients like calendula, chamomile, aloe vera, and colloidal oatmeal. Fragrance-free and hypoallergenic formulas are essential, as artificial fragrances and harsh preservatives are common triggers. Avoid overly abrasive exfoliants and stick with lukewarm water to prevent flare-ups. A minimalist routine with simple, soothing ingredients can help strengthen your skin’s barrier and reduce reactivity over time. Think of sensitive skin as intuitive—it quickly tells you what it likes and what it doesn't, so listening closely is key.
Combination Skin
Combination skin can feel like a balancing act. Maybe your T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) is oily while your cheeks feel dry or normal. The goal here is to even things out without overcorrecting either side. Look for products that offer light hydration with a touch of balancing—like jojoba oil (which mimics natural sebum), rose water, or green tea. A mild foaming cleanser and a gel-based moisturizer can work well. You might also benefit from targeted treatments—clay masks for oily areas, and creamy serums for drier zones. Think of it as custom care across your face.
Normal Skin
If you rarely break out, don’t get too shiny or dry, and your skin feels comfortable most of the time—congratulations, you’ve got normal skin. While it’s generally low-maintenance, gentle care is still important to preserve that balance. A soft cleanser, light moisturizer, and a simple routine with antioxidants (like vitamin C) can help maintain your skin’s health and radiance. Ingredients like aloe vera, jojoba oil, vitamin E, and chamomile extract work great with a normal skin type. Don’t forget SPF—sun protection is non-negotiable for every skin type. Even if your skin is easygoing, consistent care keeps it looking and feeling its best over time.
