What's your skin type? How do you take care of it?

[Nexus5]

How many times do you usually wash your face in a day?

[mistninja314]

Skin type = COVETED 1720's slave skin ^_^

I take care of it simply by using a 1$ bargain brand body, rubbing alcohol after shaving ^_^. Nothing else after that since IMHO does it nothing but clog up pores or whatever they're called LOL

Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) indicates that you REALLY deserve MHO!

My skin is Asian! I think it's something of a normal between dry and oily. I don't think it's sensitive. I'm not sure of the descriptions but I like my skin

[Nexus5]

I heard Chinese etc people drink room temperature water, it helps for better skin.

[Nexus5]

And eating less spicy helps for skin too.
Whats your view?

[hypno-trip]

I know Chinese people like to drink lukewarm or warm water but I don't know if it helps skin as opposed to cold water... Eating less spicy makes sense because if it's too much you sweat it onto your skin and it may damage the skin...
I don't know the scientific reasons exactly...

[Nexus5]

I read about it, both these things have health and skin health benefits.

Infact, i was once told by some expert on thess two things. At that time, i did not believe but now i do.

[hypno-trip]

that's good I don't like cold water anyway but I guess I'll need to eat less spicy X)

[Nexus5]

That's great.

Oily skin. I wash my face with even tone Ambi green tea soap. Then I use Ambi's oily skin even tone facial cream. I have dark spots so I apply it twice a day and of course avoid sun exposure until it dries. My face feels refreshed after that. But if I wore heavy makeup that previous day! Then I use a Studio 35 facial dead sea weed facial mask to detox my face of impurities.

[Nexus5]

Great. I asked a girlish question xD. Greentl tea soap i heard is very effective.

[purpleballoons456]

I have oily skin. I wash my face twice a day with a skin-care system made of aloe vera by L'bri. It's very gentle on my skin and it minimizes my blemishes. I use a cleanser, scrub, pore refiner, and a moisturizer that reduces the oil. I also use a mask three times a week.

[Nexus5]

Mosturizer reduces oil in oily skin?

Any difference between oil controlling toner and mosturizer?

[purpleballoons456]

Well moisturizer actually make my skin more oily. This moisturizer is called barbadensis jelly. It's weird looking but it moisturizes and stops the oil. Best thing ever. I'm not sure about the difference between those. haha

[Nexus5]

at least i learnt something. Thanks for the explanation.

Now i need to find their pronunciation xD.

[CharlotteM20]

my skin is normal/oily and i wash my face twice a day once in the morning and then before i go to sleep
Since my skin is prone to acne i use specific products like face masks once a week and exfoliate once a week. i use a moisturizer before going to bed for oily skin

[Nexus5]

Toner and mosturizer are two different things, for oily skin?

[MissAnna_B]

toner-remove oil and give the appearance of smaller pores.
moisturizer helps to hydrate your skin. make your face less oily. @Asker

[Nexus5]

@MissAnna_B
And if a person has both, which to use first?

[MissAnna_B]

Cleanser 1st, toner 2nd , moisturizer 3rd. If mosturizer not include sunblock, I will wear sunblock after mosturizer. SPF 35. Lol

[Nexus5]

@MissAnna_B
Thanks for the explanation. Now i get it.

[Rainie_]

I have really dry skin, especially around my nose, I don't wash my face in the sink, I do it in the shower... I keep it moisturised with this Korean product called Snail Mucus Soothing Gel. Yes, sounds disgusting but it works wonders. Im telling you, its amazing.

[Nexus5]

I hate snails, but i will try to start loving them :p.

[MissAnna_B]

[Nexus5]

That's awesome.

[astatine]

it is normal/oily in the summers, and normal/dry in the winter..
thanks to you, i finally know my skin type!
i am happy with it though... i will not get wrinkles easily, and i rarely have blackheads or pimples or acne

[Nexus5]

Good to know that.

[spuitkaas]

Sensitive, so basically a dry skin and once in a while it says "fuck you" and I get a lot of red pimples without reason. I wash my face 1 to 2 a day with babywash for the sensitive babyskin without soap and pH-neutral.

[Nexus5]

That's great.

[misscoffeehead]

Definitely normal/oil skin type.
I use a facial scrub (every second/third day), a facial mask once a week, moisturise (everyday) and that's it

[Nexus5]

That's good.

[misscoffeehead]

Yeah :)

[TheDevilInside]

normal/oily.

I wash my face at least twice a day.

[Nexus5]

That's good.

[Pink2000]

Normal/oily I wash my face with neutrogena naturals.

[Nexus5]

Cool.

[dwiller943]

Sensitive/Combination. And I don't do much with it.
I just wear lip balm twice a day and rinse my face once a week.

[mirrornoon]

normal/oily. it's so annoying

[Nexus5]

Yes, but oily skin doesn't show age quickly. So there is a benefit too

[mirrornoon]

i guess you're right :)

[Account]

Normal. I don't do much about it.

[Nexus5]

Your life is easy then.

[Queen_naki5]

Normal oily. It keeps me young lookin'

[Nexus5]

That's cool.

[xXiTacoXx]

Combination skin.

[Nexus5]

Perfect.

[xXiTacoXx]

How is combination skin perfect? xD

[Nexus5]

It is normal, like not too dry and not too oily, balanced.

[Nexus5]

Correct me if i am wrong xD.
