Normal Skin: This type of skin is neither excessively oily nor dry. It does not require particular attention and has a clean, soft appearance, a regular texture, and no flaws.
Sensitive Skin: Sensitive skin is more likely to react to stimuli, such as heat, tightness, redness, or itching, to which normal skin does not react.
To put it another way, this type of skin is typically extremely sensitive and sensitive to any external substances applied to the skin.
Dry Skin: Usually transient, dry skin is brought on by extrinsic causes like the weather, low air humidity, and being submerged in hot water. It might, however, happen more frequently and possibly be a lifetime condition for certain people.
Oily Skin: Oily skin seems bright, porous, and humid. It is brought on by the sebaceous glands’ overproduction of fat and is typically brought on by hormonal or hereditary factors.
It is common in teenagers and young adults under 30 and is typically associated with acne.
