How it works

Each of the first four answers adds a point to a skin type; the highest total wins, and ties between oily and dry resolve to combination. Question 5 flags sensitivity and Question 6 adjusts texture advice for climate.

This is a lifestyle guide, not a diagnosis. See a dermatologist for persistent acne, rashes, pigmentation or pain.

Frequently asked questions

Can skin be dry and oily at once?

Yes. Dehydrated skin lacks water but can still make oil. Hydrating ingredients help without feeling heavy.

How long before I see results?

Skin renews roughly every 4–6 weeks, so give any change a full month.

Do I need sunscreen indoors?

If you sit near windows or go out at all, yes; UVA passes through glass.
