There are mainly five skin types including sensitive, dry, oily, normal and combination types. In general, combination skin is believed to be the most skin type, and it can be also the most difficult one to take care of. Teenagers with combination skin will often possess the dry skin texture in their jaw line and cheeks and the oily T-Zone (involving Forehead, Nose and Chin). Often, skin care products for this skin type should contain the oil-free cleanser utilized on the T-Zone that can tighten pores and remove excessive sebum. Don't forget to buy the light moisturizer for some dry areas.

Some useful tips on caring the combination skin type

The most effective ways to look after the combination skin is maintaining the strict care regime for cleansing and moisturizing. As the teenagers, one of the most important things here is that we will be in need of 2 different types of cleansers in order to tackle the varied needs of our skin. Don't be hesitant to take advantage of the gel-based cleanser that is oil free for some areas on our face such as forehead and noise. Specially, stay away from availing the same products on our cheeks since they can dry out our delicate skin and make it apt to flaking. Here is some advice on caring this skin type:

• Use cleanser that is gentle, and it will not leave our skin feeling dry and stretched. Don't forget to pick out the mild antibacterial gel-based foaming ones, and wash our face 2 to 3 times per day.

• Steer clear of using some beauty soaps because they have the high pH level which is apt to cause clogging pores and drying out skin. Utilize the gentle toner that is free of alcohol on our T-zone. Avoid availing one on our cheeks since it will cause our skin to flake away. For the natural care, we can apply chilled rosewater with the assistance of the cotton ball to refresh our skin.

• Don't ignore moisturizer if we own the combination skin. Specially, don't take advantage of wearing makeup too much on our skin. Remember to switch to mineral makeup because it will let our skin breathe.

• In case we possess the open pores, we can apply fresh tomato juice to deal with this problem.

• Avoid the heavy oil-based foundation on our skin since it can clog our pores.

• Take all traces of makeup off our face every night with the assistance of an organic makeup remover.

• Don't be hesitant to take advantage of the deep pore or antibacterial cleanser during the summer. Some helpful products for combination skin we should try will be Neutrogena Oil-Free Fresh Moisture Ultra-Light Moisturizer, Clinique Clarifying Lotion, Vichy Normaderm Anti-Imperfection Hydrating Care and La Roche-Posay Toleriane Purifying Foaming Cream Cleanser. Always read the instructions located on these products carefully before using because not all of them are suitably designed for teenagers.
