How to Determine Your Skin Type

Identifying your skin types is the first step in building a skincare routine tailored to your needs.

Here is how to it can be done:

STEP 1: Wash your face

Use a gentle cleanser to remove any make up, first, or oil from your skin. Pat your skin dry with a towel.

STEP 2: Wait for an hour

Allow your skin to return to its natural state without applying any skincare products

STEP 3: Observe your skin

> DRY SKIN: Feels tight and flaky

> OILY SKIN: Shiny, especially the T-zone (forehead, nose and chin)

> COMBINATION SKIN: Oily in the T-zone but dry or normal on th cheeks

> NORMAL SKIN: Balanced, not too oily or dry

STEP 4: Check for sensitivity

Notice if your skin becomes red or irritated easily. If it does, then you may have a sensitive skin.

Building Your Easy Every Day 5-Step Skin Routine

STEP 1: CLEANSE

Cleansing removes dirt, oil, and impurities giving your skin a fresh start for the day. If you have a sensitive skin, it is advised to always keep a separate towel for your face. A gentle SLS Free cleanser like the SKÖG Birch Sap Facial Cleanser will cleanse you skin without stripping away its essential moisture. 

STEP 2: TONE

Toning helps to balance the skin’s pH levels, minimise pores, and refresh your skin. The SKÖG Birch Sap Facial Tonic Mist is a versatile, alcohol-free toner that hydrates, balances and refreshed. IT works for all skin types and can also be used as a body or a pillow mist for an added soothing effect.

STEP 3: SERUM/TREATMENT

This step involves serums or products that are problem solving, usually concentrated formulas to address specific skin concerns. For instance the SKÖG Clarifying and Brightening Serum is formulated to treat pigmentation, discolouration, marks/spots where as the SKÖG Revitalising Serum is going to address all signs of ageing. Not to forget the Lip Repair Oil for dark/chapped lips or Under Eye Repair Oil to treat dark circles, puffiness, fine lines.

STEP 4: MOISTURIZE

Hydrating your skin is a key to maintaining the skin barrier and a soft, smooth texture. A nourishing face cream like the SKÖG Cloudberry /Sea Lettuce Hydrating Cream is a great AM and PM routine face moisturiser with a boost of Vitamin C and antioxidants to keep your skin barrier strong and your skin radiant.

STEP 5: PROTECT (SUNCARE)

Sun protection is an essential step in the skincare routine. It prevents premature ageing, pigmentation, and skin damage. The SKÖG Daily Sunshield is SPF35 is a physical sunscreen enriched with Chaga Mushrooms. This sunscreen is non-sweaty, non-greasy, leaves no white caste and protects your skin from both UV-A and UV-B rays.
