Combo Skin: It’s All About Balance + This New Mask

We all know combination skin can be tricky, and clients often turn to you as a professional for help managing their mix of oily and dry skin. At-home skincare routines that are professionally recommended can get them going in the right direction, as can regular in spa treatments. Let’s talk a bit about finding that balance and how to care for combination skin effectively.

 

Understanding Combination Skin

Understanding what you are dealing with is half the battle. Spend some time explaining to your clients what is really going on with their combination skin. Some tips include:

  • Combo skin has larger pores covering 1/3 of the face, usually in the T-zone area.
  • The goal is to balance oil while hydrating, strengthening, and soothing skin with larger pores that tends to be more reactive.
  • Focus on products that use all-natural ingredients such as green tea, grapefruit, lemongrass, and bergamot to control, soothe, and balance.
  • Controlling excess sebum is key with any combination skincare routine. Sebum can cause acne, oily skin, and chronic itchiness and skin irritation.
  • Educate on a combination skincare routine that is easy to follow and uses products designed to produce results just for combo skin.
