Before choosing your cleanser, serum, or moisturizer, there's one essential thing you should know: your skin type.
Not all skin needs the same things, and using the wrong products can cause more harm than good.
In this guide, we'll show you how to easily identify your skin type and which natural ingredients are best for skin care.
🔍 Why is it important to know your skin type?
Because your skin has its own characteristics, rhythms, and needs , and what works for someone else may not work for you. Understanding your skin helps you:
- Choosing the right products
- Avoid irritations or outbreaks
