Combination skin type is characterized by having both oily and dry areas on the face. Typically, individuals with combination skin may notice oiliness in the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) while experiencing dryness or flakiness on the cheeks and other areas. This duality results from different areas of the skin producing varying levels of sebum, leading to a unique skincare challenge.

Understanding this skin type is crucial for developing an effective skincare regimen that addresses the specific needs of both the oily and dry areas, making tailored products necessary for balance and overall skin health.
