Whatever your skin type, there are some golden rules you should be following to make sure yours is in tip-top condition. We’ve paired up with skincare experts VICHY for a series of guidelines for different skin types… today we're tackling combination skin.
_____________________________
1) Spend more time cleansing your T zone. Use a gentle cleanser, but focus more on the oilier areas of your face.
2) Use warm water, not hot. Hot water can leave your dry patches even more dehydrated, while also stimulating more oil production in your oily areas.
3) Don’t forget a toner. Use of a gentle toner, like Normaderm Purifying Pore-Tightening Lotion, on your T Zone will tighten pores while balancing the skin's pH and eliminating excess oil.

4) Choosing the correct moisturiser is vital when managing combination skin. Always choose a moisturiser suitable for sensitive skin, lighter creams are is usually the best choice. For women who have combination to oily skin and also have an anti-ageing concern, Normaderm Anti-Age is a perfect solution. With an ultra-fresh, non-greasy cream gel texture, it provides comfort but does not clog the pores. It also has a great anti-ageing efficacy, ensuring the skin is smooth and even-toned.
5) Exfoliate the T Zone more. Choose a once a week treatment to get rid of dead cells and revitalize skin.
6) Use sunscreen every day to protect skin from UV damage, fight signs of aging, and avoid exacerbating existing conditions.
7) Target individual blemishes with a dedicated treatment like Normaderm Hyaluspot.
