An estimated 80% of women wear the wrong size bra. It seems surprising that it could be so common to make a mistake in choosing what feels right for your body, but the same can be said of people knowing their correct skin type.
Of course, skin isn’t a fingerprint and changes day to day, month to month and age, sex and diet can all affect it, but it will often have a tendency to a particular skin type, depending on how much sebum it produces. So it makes sense that people could be mistaken when choosing the correct products for their skin’s needs. Plus, the three main categories of dry, normal/combination and oily skin types often overlap in real life.
If you’re thinking what is my skin type, here’s how to correctly identify your skin’s needs and the daily care routine and lifestyle that can help you meet them.
