Hey guys!
2
Today let's talk about skin type.
3
I mean we hear these terms thrown everywhere all the time like normal skin, dry skin, combination skin, oily skin, and sensitive skin.
4
And although these are categories that we frequently talk about, it's not the end-all be-all when it comes to skincare and taking care of your skin.
5
So let's talk about really what the definition of these skin types are, how to determine your skin type,
6
and really what relevance they should play and taking care of your skin and your skincare routine.
7
Hi, my name is Dr. Jenny Liu.
8
I'm a birth survivor dermatologist and welcome back to my YouTube channel.
9
If you enjoy learning about skincare related content, haircare related content, then I would love it if you can give this video a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel.
10
All right, skin types.
11
Now, this is something that really have become a cornerstone in skincare.
12
Nowadays, we see more and more products being marketed towards certain skin types.
13
But what I want you guys to walk away from this
14
video is number one aside from just understanding the differences between these skin types
15
But most importantly understand that these are supposed to be really helpful guides
16
They're not meant to box you in and also keep in mind that skin type.
17
There's no good or bad skin type They're all very unique
18
and different and there are pros and cons to all of them
19
and Also skin type can change with age with hormone with the season
20
and even medications that you take that may either temporarily
21
or permanently change your skin type so honestly
22
when it comes to skin type even though we kind of
23
generalize this is suitable for x skin type for y skin
24
type i think it's really just most helpful as a guide for you
25
when you're shopping for skincare products because nowadays there's
26
so many different type of products formulations
27
and textures it's just really meant to be a good starting point especially
28
if you feel overwhelmed if you kind of know your skin type
29
that is like a helpful start to picking out products
30
but again it's not a guarantee and it's not meant to really box you in
31
and also doesn't mean that like
32
if you have oily skin you can't use products formulated for dry skin
33
and vice versa you know you at the end of the day understand your skin best
34
and you just kind of have to use products that work well for your skin, the ones that you enjoy at the same time.
35
Starting off with normal skin type.
36
I actually do not like this term because I don't really know what the definition of normal skin type is.
37
Like what is normal?
38
All of us are unique.
39
I sometimes equate normal skin type to like neutral skin in the sense you're neither super dry
40
or super oily and don't have combination skin, don't have sensitive skin.
41
But I feel like most of us at baseline have some sort of mild skin can concern
42
that i mean
43
that really is why what propels us to use particular products right to address those concerns
44
but if you don't have a lot of concerns
45
and you don't feel like your skin is either dry
46
or oily then great you probably have a skin that can tolerate
47
and can use various different type of products
48
but this is one where it's like not really sure what
49
that means but if you feel like you have it great you can shop and try out various different products
50
So normal skin type, I'm going to just leave it at
51
that because I don't really feel like it truly exists
52
and I really don't have a good definition beyond what I just said.
53
Next is dry skin and this is a skin type where often your skin will feel tight
54
and taut but also at the same time look rough,
55
look flaky and with dry patches and often fine lines are more accentuated when your skin is dry.
56
Dry skin often is seen along with eczema because the two kind of run hand in hand.
57
What is happening with dry skin essentially at the heart of it is that there are certain enzymes,
58
protein, as well as lipids like ceramides are missing or
59
that is not as functional and we actually know
60
that there is a genetic basis behind this from studying eczema
61
that basically goes into forming that healthy and functional skin barrier
62
and thereby your skin doesn't have enough lipids to retain moisture and water.
63
And so dry skin tends to be dry and often dehydrated at the same time.
64
And common concerns associated with dry skin includes eczema, keratosis pilaris, and skin sensitivity.
65
Next is oily skin, where basically the skin produces excessive sebum.
66
The oil glands are more active.
67
This is more genetically based.
68
Often the skin will look shiny and greasy in areas common like forehead, nose and chin like the T-zone where we have more concentration of oil glands.
69
Now I do have to say oily skin is definitely more
70
subjective in the sense we don't have an objective way of measuring oily skin.
71
It's not like there is some sort of like a measuring tool where
72
if you produce X number of sebum you have oily skin.
73
Dry skin is more easily identifiable in the sense we see flaking, we see eczema patches, we see breakdown the skin barrier.
74
Oily skin certainly your skin can look shiny and greasy
75
but it is very much kind of up to interpretation in a sense one person may feel
76
that that shine and greasiness is normal
77
but the same amount of shiny greasiness to another person
78
that person may feel like their skin is oily
79
but overall in general oily skin tends to be not dry the fine lines
80
and wrinkles are not as accentuated their skin doesn't feel as readily dry
81
and tight in the sense where like your skin feels taut
82
but oily skin can still become dehydrated oil
83
and water are not quite the same and so
84
but this is again where it's just in general the t-zone air tends to be more shiny
85
and greasy and there may be
86
higher association with acne but acne you know formation is complex
87
and we can see acne in all skin types
88
but in general it can be more readily associated with oily skin next is combination skin
89
and like normal skin i find this to be somewhat confusing too in the sense the true definition is
90
that you are oily shiny in the t-zone
91
but dry on other places like the cheeks um this is
92
again very much up to interpretation you know i think many of us experience
93
that at baseline because many of us do have more oil glands in the t-zone
94
and produces more sebum and dryness on the cheeks
95
but the true definition of combination skin essentially is just
96
that you have a combination of oiliness and dryness
97
and the common locations are t-zone oily cheeks dry
98
and this is also a situation where sometimes finding skincare products if you have combination skin can be tricky.
99
It almost feels like you need to put on different types of products depending on the location of your face
100
and I would say of all the skin types, combination skin is probably one type
101
if you do feel like you have where you probably need to experiment with more different types of products
102
and formulations to really truly find one that you're happy with that works best on your skin.
103
Lastly is sensitive skin and this is often characterized by sometimes dry, rough feeling skin, skin feeling type,
104
but more commonly are bothered by the symptoms.
105
So tingling and burning sensation, hard time tolerating skincare products because products will often cause those discomfort,
106
the skin may often look red and you may feel flushed
107
and sensitive skin often is associated with rosacea it's like along
108
a spectrum now as far as like sensitive skin you can have a baseline sensitive skin like
109
that is your skin type
110
or you could have a period of time where your skin is sensitive
111
and that can occur with any skin type and
112
that often is due to changes of season changes of hormones
113
or even just overdoing it with skincare products which i find louder to be the more common.
114
Like you could have oily skin, but like say you put on like salicylic acid and retinol, tretinoin and all these actives at the same time,
115
your skin can definitely become sensitive.
116
And you know that you don't have that skin type
117
because it just occurs randomly and it's temporary and as long as you remove those triggers, your skin will kind of go back to what it normally is.
118
But people that do have sensitive skin at baseline often feel like their skin is more dry
119
because sensitive skin we do know there is actually increase in transepidermal water loss
120
and some sort of skin barrier defect that contributes to sensitive skin.
121
But it's beyond that.
122
We know that there is neurovascular components and even ion channels in skin
123
that triggers those sensitivity and that skin burning and staying sensation.
124
But often it's more dry and often will look red and flush.
125
And again, the most common sensation is that it'll often burn and sting with a lot of various different triggers.
126
All right, so now that you kind of have a basic understanding of skin type, again, they're meant to be a helpful guide
127
and not meant to box you in and also keep in mind
128
that many of us can have a combination of various different
129
skin types like I used to have combination skin now I feel like I have more dry
130
and combination skin my skin definitely changes depending on the season where I definitely am more dry in the winter
131
but more combination in the summertime
132
so it's not like I said the end-all-be-all there is a spectrum
133
and so it's really just meant to guide you now having said
134
that like how can you determine what your skin type is.
135
So the easiest is number one, take a gentle cleanser.
136
So common ones I recommend includes like La Roche-Posay gentle creamy cleanser, Cetaphil creamy cleanser, Cervi hydrating cleanser,
137
something that's not going to be aggressive at stripping your skin's natural oil.
138
You're going to wash your face with a gentle cleanser
139
and then you're going to pat your skin dry
140
and basically you're not going to put on any skincare products
141
and you're just going to wait and check back like 20-30 minutes later
142
and then an hour later and see what your skin is doing and feel how your skin feels.
143
So in general, if after washing your face with a gentle cleanser, like after 30 minutes to an hour, your skin immediately feels tight,
144
noticing itching, noticing dry flicking, then you more likely have dry skin.
145
Conversely, if after cleansing, after 30 minutes, you're noticing like a film of oil building up in particular like along the t-zone
146
that you more likely have oily skin
147
and then for combination skin it's again oiliness on the t-zone dryness on the cheeks
148
and then sensitive skin as i said earlier tends to be dry
149
but it's really just that the feeling that
150
that you always have like burning
151
and staying at baseline regardless of what you put on
152
and often that can be even triggered by environmental things like wind cold heat
153
and your skin often looks like flush and
154
that really i feel like is also very helpful aside from just like this simple test
155
and how your skin feels after cleansing
156
and then for combination skin it's again oiliness on the t-zone dryness on the cheeks
157
and then sensitive skin as i said earlier tends to be dry
158
but it's really just that the feeling that
159
that you always have like burning
160
and staying at baseline regardless of what you put on
161
and often that can be even triggered by environmental things like wind cold heat
162
and your skin often looks like flush and
163
that really I feel like is also very helpful aside from just like this simple test
164
and how your skin feels after cleansing.
165
Now I'm not going to share too many particular specific products
166
and if you guys want me to based on skin type comment below I'd be happy to
167
but I just really want to offer like an overall guidance on how to select products in particular moisturizers
168
and sunscreen for different skin types
169
because really at the end of the day I believe all
170
skin types needs a moisturizer to really support the skin moisture barrier to keep our skin barrier happy healthy
171
and functional it really kind of distills down to the formulation that's going to work best for your skin type
172
but at the end of the day this is just generalization
173
it's not a hard fast rule you play around with products
174
and you just figure out what works best for you now going Going back to like dry skin, often dry skin is gonna be better suited with creamier formulas.
175
So richer, more nourishing creams that contains a blend of hydrating ingredients along with occlusives
176
and emollients and lipids that are really going to help to seal in
177
that moisture and support and replenish the lipids that are often missing in dry skin.
178
So that way after using that type of formula, your skin is no longer going to feel as taut
179
and tight and also reduce the flaking and the roughness on the skin.
180
Conversely, for those with oily skin, often like a gel or gel cream is going to be better suited
181
because there's going to be less occlusives that is really going to make and feel heavy on your skin, maybe add like shininess or greasiness to your skin.
182
It's going to be heavier on water-based content that is going to help hydrate your skin, but just enough so that way your skin stays hydrated,
183
but not too much where it's going to add additional shine or greasiness to the skin.
184
And often these products are going to be more fast absorbing.
185
So feel better and look better when you have oily skin.
186
For combination skin, as I mentioned earlier, this is one area where you kind of have to play around with products to find what best fits you.
187
But often creams, oil-free creams, oil-free lotions, gel creams, I tend to find work best for combination skin.
188
And then lastly, for sensitive skin, because it tends to run more dry, creams are going to be better than gel creams.
189
Gel creams with the higher water content may sting and burn.
190
And sometimes products containing alcohol and fragrances will often sting and burn.
191
So this is where it's easier to say what to avoid than what to try.
192
And in general, for sensitive skin, you want to avoid products that contain alcohol,
193
essential oils, and common fragrances because those can often cause more burning and stinging sensation.
194
And similarly, for like sunscreen, if you have dry skin, majority of the time, I do not find sunscreens themselves to be moisturizing.
195
So this is where in the morning, you want to make sure you put on a good layer of moisturizer before your sunscreen.
196
You can even do moisturizer and then pick a sunscreen
197
that has like a moisturizer in it to add additional moisturization to your skin.
198
Conversely, for those with oily skin, you may want to pick sunscreens and moisturizers along the sun, you know, for that matter,
199
that have mattifying properties that's going to temporarily reduce shine
200
and the look of greasiness on the skin
201
and often these have like ingredients like silica
202
and powder that's gonna help to temporarily coat the oil glands to reduce that shine and oiliness.
203
And this is where you could probably go with just using sunscreen
204
or like a moisturizer and sunscreen in one depending on the formulation.
205
As far as sensitive skin, you know, we in general say mineral fragrance-free sunscreens, but it doesn't mean chemical filters are completely out of the picture for you.
206
I used a bunch of Korean fragrance-free chemical filters postpartum
207
when my skin was super sensitive
208
and I didn't have an issue This is where it's really
209
about testing it on your skin first before using it all over
210
And basically you want to use any product any new product
211
And test it on like behind your ears on your jawline
212
or inner arms for about a week before you apply it all over
213
And it's not a guarantee but that is a very easy
214
and relatively safe way of making sure that products don't react on your skin before you use it more liberally.
215
All right I hope you found this brief video very helpful.
216
It's more like an introduction.
217
I felt like it's time that I talk about it.
218
We see it everywhere and it's just one of those things where it's a guide
219
but really not meant in any way meant to restrict you
220
or box you in and
221
if you want me to take a deeper dive in recommending particular products
222
because I I didn't really talk about like serums and cleansers and retinoids, exfoliants, et cetera.
223
But if you do want me to do that in a lot more detailed video based on skin types, please let me know in the comments below.
224

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
