Want to understand your skin better without going to a clinic? Here are easy at-home checks to know what your skin needs.
1. The Tissue Test
Press a tissue on your face after 30 mins of washing it.
-
Oily? You’ll see oil marks.
-
Dry? It’ll feel tight and rough.
-
Normal? No oil, no tightness.
2. Mirror Check:
Look for dark spots, whiteheads, dullness, or dry flakes. These are early signs of skin stress.
3. Spot Location Says A Lot
-
Forehead + Nose = oil control needed
-
Chin = hormonal acne
-
Cheeks = sensitivity or dryness
