It is not easy to find the right products for combination skin. The T-zone (forehead, nose and chin) is often very oily, while the cheeks are rather dry and can feel tight. Good products for this skin type moisturize the dry parts of the face without making the T-zone oilier. From cleansers to masks and moisturizers – DALTON offers effective solutions and a wide range of products for combination skin.
1. Cleansers for combination skin
Proper cleansing is very important for combination skin, to unblock pores and prevent them from clogging. Make-up residues and excess sebum can be gently removed. Our Foaming Face Wash Gel cleanses thoroughly and refreshes the skin. If you are looking for additional anti-aging benefits, try our Premium Clean Foam Cleanser. After you have cleansed your skin, follow with a toner. This is a key step in any combination skin routine, as it eliminates remaining traces of dirt or make-up and prepares the skin for better absorption of the next products in your routine, such as face moisturizers and serums. You should also exfoliate your face once or twice a week. We recommend the Enzyme Peel or 2% BHA Exfoliant, to gently remove dead skin cells from dry skin areas and deep clean the pores.
2. Best face cream for combination skin
Just like your cleanser, your face moisturizer needs to meet all the complex needs of combination skin. If you show only moderate signs of combination skin, i.e. your T-zone is just a bit oily and your cheeks are not too dry, you can just use a lightweight moisturizer for your daily routine. If your skin shows more severe characteristics of the combination skin type, you would either have to use two moisturizers, one for the oily skin in the T-zone and one for the dry cheek area, or use a moisturizer that is specifically designed for combination skin.
The Oyster Combination Skin Moisturizer hydrates dry skin areas without overwhelming the oily areas. Thanks to our Celumer Marine Extract, it has a proven anti-aging effect as well and reduces the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
Our non-greasy SENSITIVE CARE Cream Light is perfect for allergy-prone and sensitive skin. The ultra-gentle, fragrance-free formula with ceramides, blackcurrant, sunflower extract and soothing balloon vine helps to restore and strengthen the skin barrier.
3. Best face mask for combination skin
Balancing face masks are a great way to complement your daily skincare routine. If your skin is prone to blemishes, we recommend our Oyster Mattifying Mask. This special mask for combination skin and large pores clears the pores and leaves the skin supple and refreshed. Can’t decide on one mask? Try multi-masking and just combine two different masks! Our tip: The OYSTER Mask is ideal for the oily T-zone, while our Clarifying Beauty Mask hydrates and revitalizes the dry cheek area.
4. Additional skincare products
One of the most common problems with combination skin is an excessively oily T-zone. In such cases, mattifying products can help to control excess oil and improve the complexion in the long term, without over-drying the skin. Our OYSTER Pore-Refining Concentrate has a mattifying effect and balances the oily and dry areas of combination skin.
