SKIN TYPE

to check your skin type, wash your face with a gentle cleanser then gently pat it dry. If after 30 minutes your skin appears shiny throughout, you likely have oily skin; if it feels tight and is flaky or scaly, you likely have dry skin; if the shine is only in your T-Zone, you probably have combination skin; and if your skin feels hydrated and comfortable, but not oily, you likely have normal skin. blackheads doesnt mean oily skin as dry skin also have them.

You could be oily dehydrated. It's not on Picky but dehydrated skin is a condition and can occur in both dry and oily skin types. I'd suggest to increase your skin's hydration levels by layering hydrating toners/essences before sealing it off with moisturiser.

if your skin has the mixture of oily & dry then I'm guessing you might be combination skin. just like me, I'm oily at T zone, cheek area normal, nose area is dry haha . as for you routine, I dunno what kind of skin problem you would like to tackle. basic routine usually is just cleanser > moisturizer > sunscreen only. when you feel like upping the game, then you can go for cleanser > toner > serum > moisturizer > sunscreen.

Feeling oily outside but dry inside hmm, i think it's dehydrated skin🤔 For blackhead you can choose AHA/BHA but please mantain the hydration too bcz exfoliator like AHA/BHA can cause drying

I'm not sure about skin type as I'm confused about my own 😅 But I've got a suggestion for the blackheads! This gentle chemical exfoliator has helped me significantly reduce whiteheads, blackheads & closed comedones 💚 I use it 1-2 times weekly.
