Oily skin can appear shiny and feel greasy to the touch.
Oily skin produces higher amounts of sebum (your skin’s natural oil), which can clog your pores and cause blackheads and acne. If you’re prone to blemishes and breakouts, you may have oily skin. But don’t worry, there are so many tricks and products to help BALANCE your oily complexion and UNLOCK the best skin of your life! Charlotte’s skincare routine for oily skin features personalised skincare recommendations that work for YOU.
Dry skin can appear rough, flaky or scaly and may be easily irritable or itchy. Dry skin can also look dull or feel tight, which can highlight the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Dry skin is the opposite of oily skin because it produces less sebum. Fortunately, there are plenty of MAGIC TRICKS to help you get the best out of your dry skin. Charlotte’s skincare routine for dry skin will help you keep on top of moisture and hydration so that your skin looks MAGIC from day to night!
All skin is normal, but if your skin is well-balanced and doesn’t feel dry or oily, your skincare type is classed as Normal. This means you probably don’t suffer from breakouts or flakiness and your skin is smooth with pores that look refined. Normal skin also feels quite elastic and comfortable.
Normal skin produces just the right amount of sebum to keep it hydrated without making it greasy. But darling, even normal skin still requires some TLC! Charlotte’s skincare routine for normal skin will help you make the most of your normal skin, giving it a HEALTHY-LOOKING GLOW!
Combination skin is when your skin shows characteristics of different skin types. You might have an oily T-zone and dry or normal cheeks, for example. If your skin is showing traits of both dryness and oiliness, then there’s a good chance you have combination skin.
Combination skin is when certain parts of your skin produce either too much sebum or not enough sebum. This causes dryness or oiliness in the affected areas. Discover a MIRACLE formula that makes the most of your combination skin with Charlotte’s skincare routine for combination skin. It’s full of TAILORED recommendations and tips to keep your combination skin looking healthy, hydrated and GORGEOUS.
You can DISCOVER your skincare type with this simple test at home.
MAGIC STEP 1: Simply wash your face with a gentle cleanser, pat it dry with a clean towel and leave for 30 minutes. During this time, don’t apply any products. Just allow your skin to BREATHE.
