A balanced skin feels relaxed: not too oily, not too dry, with a soft, even texture. In this blog you’ll learn what balanced skin is, how to keep it in check, and which routine fits best. Ready to keep your skin happy? Let’s go.
What is balanced skin?
Balanced skin is healthy skin where sebum and moisture are in harmony. The skin barrier is strong, pores look fine to barely visible, and the complexion appears fresh. From a scientific point of view, the skin produces just enough sebum and sweat to stay supple and look healthy.
Do you notice differences per area (an oilier T-zone and drier cheeks)? Then your skin may feel combination. It’s all about smart distribution: lightweight and mattifying where needed, extra hydration on drier zones.
Features of balanced skin
- Soft feel: the surface feels even, firm, and not easily reactive.
- Texture & pores: pores are fine and the skin feels velvety.
- Complexion: naturally even and fresh, even without makeup.
- Special feature: your skin doesn’t need much. Avoiding over-care helps maintain balance.
Why does that balance sometimes fluctuate?
Seasons, stress, hormones or products that are too harsh can make your skin more reactive, drier or oilier. That’s normal. The key is to identify the cause and tweak your routine briefly: cleanse more gently, hydrate a bit richer or go lighter, and always protect against UV.
How to keep your skin balanced
You keep your skin in balance by keeping things simple. Less is more: choose only the products that truly add value to your routine. Your lifestyle also plays an important role. Drink enough water, eat a varied diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables, avoid overly hot showers and always remove your makeup before going to bed. These products will help you keep your skin balanced:
1. Cleanse gently
Cleanse morning and night with a gentle cleanser, like the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Ampoule Foam.
2. Hydrate lightly but effectively
Use a light cream or gel cream that won’t clog pores, like the JUMISO Waterfull Hyaluronic Cream.
3. Protect with SPF
Use SPF 30 or higher daily, like ISNTREE Hyaluronic Acid Natural Sun Cream for non-greasy protection.
4. Adjust locally
Use mattifying products on the T-zone and a hydrating serum on drier cheeks, such as ANUA Rice 7 Ceramide Hydrating Barrier Serum.
