I discovered when I was 25 that my skin is mixed but dehydrated while battling my first and only acne episode to this day. The episode lasted about one year and I tried everything, from dermatologists to cosmetologists, personalised skin analysis and recipes and so on.
The harsh topical treatments left me with sensitivity and a mild reactive rosacea.
You could say I have them all: dehydrated, sensitive, mixed skin with occasional rosacea and pigmentation.
I've tried and tested so many products and cosmetic treatments over the years and only added the best ones to this list - the ones that work for my skin now that I am 29.
You can only do the same thing for yourself - try and test but if your skin type is as crazy as mine, have a look here.

When I was younger, no one taught me how to take care of my skin. I was a minimalistic when it came to skincare. I thought moisturizer would be enough. Heck, I went some time without any moisturizer! (I don’t recommend) I also never wore sunscreen which I also do not recommend! No matter the age, always wear sunscreen!
In my mid-late 20’s I realized I needed to start taking care of my skin NOW! The goal is to age gracefully, not to look younger. ❤️
These products here are what I found worked the best for my combo skin. ( Dry skin with Oily T Zone) ❤️

It's never too late to smell a new chapter.
