For all of my girls out there with combination skin, no more fretting about how to treat the different areas of you face. Today, I’m walking you through which clean beauty products to use to help take your skincare routine to a while new level.

What is combination skin?

First things first, if you are still trying to identify your skin type, check out last week’s post about oily skin (though I’m sure if you have oily skin, YOU KNOW). Combination skin is when you have oily skin and very dry skin in different areas of your face. Typically, you will find most of the oily parts to be in your t-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) and the dry areas everywhere else. If can be difficult to treat because you are working with different needs for different sections of your face.

What causes combination skin?

Having combination skin can feel like your skin just can’t make up it’s decision and it’s ANNOYING to say the least. There are many different causes, most of which are out of your control (I know…it’s just the hand you’re dealt!). Genetics (thanks, mom), weather, and using the wrong products are all culprits for combination skin. Don’t let that last one be you – follow my guide below for a couple different clean beauty routine options that are foolproof for conquering combination skin.
