    Default I want to look pretty - starting with my skin.

    Hello

    I would really like to get my skin looking nice because right now my self-esteem is pretty low and my skin has always beeen an issue for me.

    This is a photo of my nose and under eye area.

    I just want to confirm that my main skin is warm (red) and my undereye area would be cool (blue)?

    I think my skin looks quite flushed most of the time but i have been told before that i have a yellow skin tone... maybe that is in the non flushed parts, i don't know

    My skin feels oily too me all over, but it also has some flaking patches on my forehead mainly. What skin type do i have?

    Thanks

    The first step would be your skin care. Do you have a skin care routine before going to bed and waking up in the morning?!

    In terms of your skin type, it sounds like you have "Combination Skin" ... (some parts are oily ... mainly your t-zone ... and some parts feel dry).

    hi there! i have similar skin to you, and i have used products from this store called lush (u can order online at lush.com ;]) just click the tpe of skin you have and it will suggest stuff for you! in particular this one product its black i forget what its called but its basically coal and it helps alot with the oil. also they have moisturizers that are kinda pricey but they are amazing! nothing else has workid on my skin but these products! they also have some weirdly made shampoos and conditioners that help with the oil coming from your hair. believe it or not when your hair is oily, your face is ultimately going to be oily too. i wouldnt recommend bangs in this case. also, witchhazel is good to spray on your face you can get it at the pharmacy section in walmart it like alcohol but that works well too. hope this helps! let me know if you need any more info

    J3ssiGurl is right - you have combination skin which is the most common skin type.

    If your looking for what to do about this it is pretty straight forward. You just need to put the correct bases in the right places. Dont apply oily products to oily areas and vice versa for your dry patches. Moisturisers are made for combination skins along with primers and bases, just make sure you read them and you will be sure to find what you need xx

    For me, your skin type is dry because I don’t see any oil on your nose bridge but not sure with your forehead. And looking at your photo, it seems that you have a cool skin complexion. I based it from http://www.mineral-makeup-reviews.co...Skin-Tone.html. The page also placed some suggestions on color application for your face specific to your skin type. I have a combination skin type – oily on t-zone but dry on other areas like my cheeks while having a warm skin color.
