Dual skincare approach for combination skin

Combination skin care

My skin type is combination, which means I have a blend of oily and dry skin. The patch on my T-zone from the forehead down to the nose and chin is oily while my cheeks are dry. So this means that my T-zone needs too be treated like oily skin while my cheeks should be treated like dry skin.

In fact, he didn’t even realized the reason until I questioned him.
