Caring for the skin on your face when you have combination skin is pretty simple when you know which product(s) to use and, above all, if you adopt the right routine. Here are a few tips for beautiful, purified skin.
Here are a few tips for beautiful, purified skin.
What is combination skin?
Combination skin is when skin tends to shine quickly, more specifically on the T-zone of the face (forehead, nose and chin). The pores are often dilated, which accentuates sebum secretion. The rest of the face is often normal and sometimes dry and sensitive.

An adapted daily routine
The aim of taking care of combination skin is to purify it by unclogging pores. They will be less dilated and secrete less sebum. It will be matified, nourished and moisturized.
To begin with, you need to cleanse your face, but even if you have combination skin, you need to keep the cleansing gentle. The more you use aggressive products, the more sebum your skin will secrete to protect itself.
Sulfate-free cleansing gel will gently cleanse your skin and purify it at the same time. If you want to cleanse your face even more gently, opt for acleansing oil.
Simply massage your face dry with the cleansing oil. Moisten your hands and run them over your face again. The oil will turn into milk. All that's left is to rinse.
After washing, tone your skin. Hydrolats are your best allies. For combination skin, we recommendlemon floral water. It will tone your skin, tighten pores and leave it luminous.
Moisturizing and nourishing. All skin types need hydration and nutrition. Choose a skincare product adapted to your skin type, matifying for the T-zone and moisturizing for the rest of your face.
At the end of the day, it's time to remove your make-up. Last week, we gave you a simple recipe for a two-phase make-up remover for combination skin.
Once you've removed your make-up, remember to nourish your skin. There are some very good night creams on the market, but you should know that vegetable oils are very good skin care products that will nourish your skin.
Even if you have combination skin, there's nothing to stop you from applying a few drops of vegetable oil for soothed, soft skin. For combination skin, we recommendgrapeseed oil orjojoba oil.Carrot oil will add radiance to your skin.
Weekly skin care
For deeply purified skin, a weekly scrub and mask is ideal. Use a gentleclay- or rhassoul-based scrub. Use circular movements, without pressing too hard to avoid irritating your face. For your masks, you can choose from different clays(green clay, white clay and rhassoul).

Always finish with a little floral water to soothe and tone your face.
Chamomile or peppermint are ideal. Sometimes, the simplest routines are the most effective. The secret to beautiful skin is regularity in your routine.
Don't forget that even if your skin is combination, it needs to be gentle. The gentler your skincare routine, the less shiny your skin will be.
