Skin Care For Normal Skin

Your skin is the body’s largest organ. It covers your entire body and has a surface area of around 2 square meters. The thickness of the skin varies from around 0.5mm on the eyelids up to around 4mm on the palms of the hands.

As you have so much skin to care for it makes sense to know what type of skin you have and how best to care for it.

There are 5 main skin types; normal, dry, oily, Combination and sensitive. In this series of articles we are looking at all the different skin types and how best to care for them.

1. Normal Skin

Normal skin has a fine even texture with a supple and smooth surface. This skin is neither dry nor greasy; if you press a tissue onto your face the tissue will not reveal any traces of oil.

The pores of the skin are fine and barely visible; it looks clear and does not normally develop spots or blemishes. When you pull the skin away from the bony structure, it springs back to normal position.

Care of Normal Skin

Start with a gentle foaming facial wash; massaging it into your face provides various advantages like toning and tightening the muscles of the face. Next use a facial toner suitable for a normal skin. Then a few drops mosturiser massaged into the skin to finish.

It is important to use a sunscreen, even in winter, to protect the skin. The easiest way is to use a mosturiser with an integral sunscreen. The sunscreen protects from the harmful effects of the sun which helps prevent premature ageing.

Homemade Recipes for Normal Skin Types
