Here I found a table of creams they make according to skin type - take a look, maybe you can choose something else for yourself. I myself also used “almond”, “grape”, “sea buckthorn” (mixed skin closer to dry, 29 years old). In winter and during the heating season, I always keep “spermaceti” in my cosmetic bag at home - after a bath, instead of a moisturizing mask, apply a thick layer to the skin for 15 minutes and blot with a napkin! And I use it as a mask for my hands - for about 10 minutes, then go over the same with a paper napkin. Super product! I recommend)

I like Mary Kay. I used bioderma, frog roche and other remedies for all shine and pimples! I chose according to my skin type. Now I’ve completely switched to Mary Kay - my skin is smooth, not a single pimple! and I don’t shine!

I like Ilona Lunden's serum, it moisturizes well

And you didn’t write the price segment, author. I use Polish cosmetics Liren and Ukrainian Biocon. Regular good creams.

I like Cora. Moisturizing with lifting. I'm 33, combo skin

And you didn’t write the price segment, author. I use Polish cosmetics Liren and Ukrainian Biocon. Regular good creams.

Emansi cosmetics will help you, an excellent choice for reasonable money.

Look at loccitane, a good series of cosmetics with angelica; if your skin is a little dry, then ultra nutrition with shea butter is worth a try. In general... you have to try it, see what suits you, this is the option where there is a lot of things and there is something to choose from.

I like shisheido

What do you use yourself? I have combination skin, but in winter it’s very dry due to frost and wind, so I’m looking for something universal.

Well, how can I tell you... I take one cream for the summer and another for the winter. For autumn-winter I always use ultra nutrition, because it is a very good cream that perfectly nourishes and moisturizes. For the summer I use angelica with Loccitane.

I have a combination. I found the perfect cream from Korea - The Skin House Papaya Moisture Cream. Super moisturizing and not greasy. on eBay it costs about 500-550, in our online stores from 800.

I ordered Burenka cream for my mother at the office. website after I read about it on a review site. I bought it out of curiosity, but was pleasantly surprised. The cream perfectly moisturizes and leaves the skin smooth. Mom praised the cream so much that I decided to order it for myself.

Combination facial skin combines areas of oily and dry skin. Its signs:

1. The forehead, wings of the nose and chin suffer from the active work of the sebaceous glands and excessive secretion of liquid fat. In other words, they have obvious signs of oily skin.
2. Fatty areas shine, especially in the hot season.
3. Due to the abundant secretion of sebum, the pores become clogged. Consequently, the appearance of a huge number of blackheads, comedones and acne.
4. On the cheeks, cheekbones and under the nose, dryness and flaking, sagging skin, and wrinkles are noticeable. These are clear signs of dry facial skin.
5. After washing, a feeling of tightness and discomfort appears in these areas.
6. The skin reacts strongly to changes in weather, heat and cold, and peels off greatly.

This mixed type requires constant and intensive care. Otherwise, inflammation, skin diseases, even more abundant sebum secretion and an increase in blackheads will appear in oily areas of the skin. In dry areas, on the contrary, the skin will become flabby, inelastic, and by the age of twenty-five you can see the first noticeable wrinkles.

Features of choosing a cream for mixed skin

For good skin condition, it requires not only constant care, but also properly selected cosmetics and cleansing products. For those with a combination face type, this is quite difficult. Many people believe that by choosing one product for oily or dry skin, they will improve the condition of two types of epidermis at once. But that's not true. That is why it is very important to choose the right care product for combination skin types.

Science does not stand still, and the field of cosmetology has improved significantly over the past few years. Now, for combination skin, you don’t need to buy two different creams and smear separate areas. Cosmetologists and dermatologists were able to achieve the interaction of completely opposite components in one cream. Now, just one product can cope with different skin types: moisturize and dry.

Active ingredients in the cream:

1. Glycerol. Softens and moisturizes the skin.
2. Minerals and vitamins: A, B, C, E. Nourish and retain moisture in the epidermal cells for a long time.
3. Natural oils. Promote rapid regeneration and have a moisturizing effect.
4. Hyaluronic acid. Rejuvenates cells, restores firmness and elasticity to the skin.
5. Plant extracts. Rejuvenate, maintain water balance, nourish.
6. Panthenol. Protects from environmental influences, heals wounds, rejuvenates.
7. Salicylic acid. Dries, mattifies, removes excess shine, treats pimples, acne, acne.

Before purchasing, you should pay attention to the date of manufacture. Do not use expired cream.

Cosmetologists recommend that owners of a combination type take the choice of care products very seriously. This type of skin is highly sensitive. The cream should not contain fragrances, silicones, dyes, chemicals, petroleum products, etc.

Minerals and mineral oils are different substances. In the first case, the skin will be moisturized and healed. But mineral bases are petroleum products and are very harmful to the skin.

Not many people know, but improper care also includes the wrong texture of the product for the season. It plays a big role in the condition of the skin. Cosmetologists recommend using SPF cream with a non-greasy and light texture in the summer and warm seasons. It is quickly absorbed, and on hot days it copes well with excess oily shine and dry skin. In winter, it is better to choose a cream with a dense texture. It will protect against cold and frost, and also enrich the skin with vitamins and beneficial microelements.

Rating of good creams

To choose the right cream, you first need to familiarize yourself with popular brands, composition and some popular products in this area.

To the question: “What is the best cream for combination skin? “What can you choose from the TOP?” even a professional dermatologist cannot answer accurately. The fact is that each girl has her own individual characteristics, which do not depend on the type of epidermis. Therefore, the same cream can act differently on everyone. So, you need to check it yourself. If after the first few uses, even the slightest positive result is noticeable, the cream is working and suitable. If not, then you need to go for the next remedy.

Normal skin requires cleansing, light moisturizing and nutrition. The drying component will not harm her, since her water balance is fine. Combination skin requires drying and moisturizing at the same time. When choosing a cream for this skin type, you need to pay attention to the active ingredients. This can be glycerin, hyaluronic acid, essential oils and plant extracts. They have a beneficial effect on the condition of these types of faces.

How to use correctly during care

Creams for combination skin need not only to be able to choose, but also to apply correctly. There should be a cream for every situation. For example, daytime - for daily use, nighttime - before bed, sun protection - for the beach. This also plays an important role, since the components in each cream are responsible for certain properties and functions.

Day cream is needed for daily use. At a minimum, it should mattify and moisturize the skin so that after a couple of hours there are no visible signs of oiliness or dryness. Ideally, the cream will protect from the sun, evaporation and moisture. In this case, the composition should contain antioxidants and components that protect against ultraviolet radiation.

Night creams have a thicker texture that can take a long time to absorb and leave a greasy residue. Therefore, you need to apply this product a couple of hours before bedtime. Half an hour after application, blot off any remaining residue with a dry cloth. The purpose of the night cream is to help the skin recover and relieve inflammation.

An inexpensive moisturizer is always applied after washing. They are the third degree of care. First, you should wash your face with warm water and cleansing foam or gel. Then wipe your face with a cleansing or soothing toner, and then apply a moisturizer. It does not clog pores, has a light texture and gives the epidermis a healthy look. Such creams are applied half an hour or an hour before leaving.

Their task is to saturate the skin with beneficial vitamins, trace elements and minerals. They are able to maintain water balance and normal functioning of the sebaceous glands. Nourishing products can serve as a primer before applying makeup, as well as a day and night cream. They have a light texture and absorb quickly, giving instant results.

Combination skin plays a double game: in some areas it is oily, and in others it is at best normal, or even completely dry. How many creams does such skin need to be happy? And is it possible to get by with just one? Find answers to these questions in our article.

Signs of combination skin

Mixed skin has characteristics of both oily and dry skin. How can this be? Very simple. The so-called T-zone (nose, forehead, chin) is characterized by high activity of the sebaceous glands and behaves as befits oily skin:

shines, especially in the hot season;

Black dots appear on the nose - evidence that too much sebum is secreted and the pores are clogged.

At the same time, the skin on the cheeks clearly lacks hydration:

after washing, a feeling of tightness may appear;

you experience discomfort in artificially heated rooms;

the epidermis reacts to low temperatures and peels off from frost and wind.

In other words, dryness and dehydration appear in certain areas of the face. The question is, what to do with skin that combines opposites?

Special care required

Since combination skin has double standards, it should be treated accordingly: mattify and deeply cleanse in oily areas, and actively moisturize in dry areas. The task is not the easiest, but it can be solved. The main thing is to pay special attention to both the oily area and the dry area at each stage of care.

This procedure should be approached especially carefully, because there are oily areas on the face that can present a surprise in the form of pimples. It is recommended to wash your face with gel or foam.

“Soap and hot water are strictly contraindicated, otherwise sebum will be produced more intensely in the T-zone, and the skin on the cheeks will dry out. Apply a sebum-regulating tonic to the T-zone, and a moisturizing lotion to the cheeks,” advises dermatovenereologist, La Roche-Posay brand expert Alexander Prokofiev.

At this stage, which is mandatory for combination skin, you need a light texture cream or fluid that can moisturize dry areas without clogging the pores of the oily area. It is ideal to use a universal moisturizing serum.

A nourishing cream with a high fat content is not the best option for combination skin. However, it can be used occasionally (for example, in extreme cold) and only on dry areas of the face. In general, combination skin loves lightweight formulas that contain more water than oil.

Composition of cream for combination skin

Since a cream for combination skin should be able to do almost everything at once, the formula includes components with multidirectional effects: anti-inflammatory and mattifying, restoring, moisturizing and nourishing. The list of main components is below.

Plant extracts: aloe vera softens the skin, geranium normalizes sebum production, chamomile has a calming effect.

Essential oils Ylang-ylang, tea tree, jasmine, lavender, sage and rosemary help regulate the secretion of the sebaceous glands and prevent the appearance of inflammatory elements.

Vitamins: E is an antioxidant that promotes cell regeneration and restoration of the hydrolipid mantle, and also retains moisture; C protects against free radicals.

Minerals perlite and silicon absorb excess sebum and mattify the skin.

Hyaluronic acid and glycerin - hydrostatic agents that attract and retain moisture.

Panthenol restores damaged epidermis.

Allantoin - an antiseptic that accelerates the process of tissue regeneration after damage.

Age features of combination skin

Rules for choosing a cream

To please combination skin, you'll need a product that can work on two fronts: mattify oily areas and hydrate dry areas. It can be a cream-gel or fluid, that is, cosmetics with a lightweight texture.

With markings for oily/combination skin.

These products have a pronounced mattifying effect, for which components that absorb sebum are responsible. Such cosmetics are useful in the summer, in conditions of heat and high humidity, which provoke increased production of sebum and oily shine. Mattifying products are appreciated by owners of young combination skin, which due to age is characterized by increased greasiness in the T-zone.

With markings for normal/combined

Such products moisturize rather than mattify, but do not clog pores. It is better to use them in the cold season, when the sebaceous glands behave more or less decently, and the skin tends to be dry. Light moisturizers are suitable for combination skin after 30 years, when the main problem is dehydration, not oiliness.

When choosing a cream, focus on the condition of your skin at the moment. If you cannot find the ideal, use two products: for the T-zone - mattifying, with astringent properties; for dry areas - moisturizing and restoring.

Avoid medicated creams for oily skin: antiseptics and high concentrations of absorbent powder can lead to dryness.

Types of creams for combination skin

It should moisturize and have a long-lasting mattifying effect so that the nose does not become shiny after just a couple of hours. This is the minimum program. Since any day cream should provide protection, the presence of antioxidants as well as SPF is welcome.

In summer, sun protection is necessary, and if filters are not included in the formula of your product, choose a mattifying cream-gel or fluid from the “sunny” lines.

At night, we don’t worry about whether our forehead and nose are shiny, so we can afford a product with a richer texture and rich composition. Our task is to help the skin calm down and recover. Creams and emulsions with a moisturizing, regenerating, soothing effect cope with this.

Tools Overview

Considering the fickleness of combination skin, which for various reasons leans either towards oily or dry, dividing creams according to age is very arbitrary. In compiling this review, we took as a basis the characteristic features that distinguish skin at different periods of life. No one knows your skin better than you - give it what it needs today. Hints are below.

At a young age, the fight against sebaceous shine and, of course, hydration are important.

We moisturize, protect and restore the skin with products that have a light texture.

hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, soybean oil, algae extracts, cinnamon, ginger, chamomile, witch hazel, allantoin, panthenol

essential oils of lavender, lemon balm, chamomile, lemongrass, citronella, clove, marjoram and rosemary

Intensive soothing care Toleriane Ultra Fluide, La Roche-Posay

allantoin, vitamin E, carnosine,

We still prefer loose textures, but at this age we can afford to think less about skin greasiness and more about protection, nutrition, and maintaining elasticity.

Moisturizes and smoothes the skin, protects against adverse environmental factors.
