This is because we naturally have more sebaceous glands in the forehead, nose and chin area.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3hep0g-75d14bc4d52d4dc69a24d9a9cd8a084e\">\n.flex_cell.av-3hep0g-75d14bc4d52d4dc69a24d9a9cd8a084e{\nvertical-align:bottom;\n}\n.responsive #top #wrap_all .flex_cell.av-3hep0g-75d14bc4d52d4dc69a24d9a9cd8a084e{\npadding:0px 0px 0px 5vw !important;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div class='flex_cell av-3hep0g-75d14bc4d52d4dc69a24d9a9cd8a084e av-gridrow-cell av_one_half no_margin  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_cell_one_half  avia-builder-el-last  content-align-bottom'  ><div class='flex_cell_inner'>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-24tq1s-26067aa3af256b97980325876b95fb11\">\n.avia-image-container.av-24tq1s-26067aa3af256b97980325876b95fb11 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-24tq1s-26067aa3af256b97980325876b95fb11 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-24tq1s-26067aa3af256b97980325876b95fb11 av-styling-no-styling avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-17  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  linksunten-rund linksoben-rund'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-7800 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-7800 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Mischhaut-2.jpg\" alt='Mischhaut' title='Mischhaut 2'  height=\"498\" width=\"785\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Mischhaut-2.jpg 785w, https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Mischhaut-2-600x381.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Mischhaut-2-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Mischhaut-2-768x487.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Mischhaut-2-705x447.jpg 705w, https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Mischhaut-2-450x285.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 785px) 100vw, 785px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-bvi1cw-df037b0be7d4aa1410c5cd937c0b5315\">\n.avia-section.av-bvi1cw-df037b0be7d4aa1410c5cd937c0b5315{\nbackground-color:#fad9c6;\nbackground-image:unset;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div id='av_section_3'  class='avia-section av-bvi1cw-df037b0be7d4aa1410c5cd937c0b5315 main_color avia-section-huge avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-18  el_after_av_layout_row  el_before_av_section  avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap sidebar_right'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-7792'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-5oep9s-2ac1593090110113c8a06a28fe5d0288 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-19  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  first flex_column_div  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3r24q8-e6b55ccfcc652754ec2f86c2eb5b6f1e\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-3r24q8-e6b55ccfcc652754ec2f86c2eb5b6f1e{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-3r24q8-e6b55ccfcc652754ec2f86c2eb5b6f1e .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-3r24q8-e6b55ccfcc652754ec2f86c2eb5b6f1e .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-3r24q8-e6b55ccfcc652754ec2f86c2eb5b6f1e av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-20  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >What does combination skin look like?<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lcl0etub-aa400bd7044d016a116ec81f7277c253 '  ><div class='av-small-hide avia_textblock einruck halfwidth2 av_inherit_color'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Combination skin can be recognized by the fact that your facial skin does not look the same everywhere: Some areas of skin are dry, others are significantly more oily.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Dry areas of skin<\/strong> (mostly cheeks and around the eyes) tend to look dull and lackluster.

This is why some areas of the skin are oversupplied with sebum and others are undersupplied.<\/p>\n<p>This is partly due to the completely natural, innate distribution of the sebaceous glands. But there are also a number of other factors that can increase your tendency to have combination skin:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Age:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/en\/?page_id=7601\">Mature skin<\/a> tends to be drier. Oily skin in adolescence can therefore turn into combination skin later on. Conversely, those with combination skin from a young age often develop dry skin later on.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Season:<\/strong> The skin generally becomes drier in the cold and oilier in the heat. That&#8217;s why you may have combination skin in winter, while you tend to have oily skin in summer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lifestyle:<\/strong> Factors such as your diet can also have an impact on sebum production and therefore on the appearance of your skin.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Skin care:<\/strong> The right skin care has a balancing effect on combination skin &#8211; you can find out more about this below.

If you have combination skin with a low tendency to blemishes, simply use a cleansing gel or a light cleansing milk &#8211; but not an oil-based product. The product should be mild and adjusted to the skin&#8217;s natural pH value. Cleanse your face with it twice a day, morning and evening.<\/p>\n<p>If your T-zone is very oily and you struggle with blemishes, an additional product for oily skin may be useful. Good options include facial cleansers with additives such as salicylic acid, which have a mild exfoliating and anti-inflammatory effect. Make sure that you really only dab these products on where your skin produces too much sebum.<\/p>\n<p>However, <strong>do not use products that are too degreasing<\/strong>, such as those with a high alcohol content. They can even intensify the extremes of your skin. This is because they dry out your cheeks even more, while oily areas of skin often become even more oily. The result: your skin becomes completely unbalanced.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-l4qtm9py-4edd69b967b69a0d9c810048754a69ce\">\n.avia-section.av-l4qtm9py-4edd69b967b69a0d9c810048754a69ce{\nbackground-color:#b86a6a;\nbackground-image:unset;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div id='av_section_5'  class='avia-section av-l4qtm9py-4edd69b967b69a0d9c810048754a69ce alternate_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-40  el_after_av_layout_row  el_before_av_section  beachten-behandlung avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap sidebar_right'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-7792'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1z47md-9ad6541ce8ccd6b712920b7f69739ad8\">\n.flex_column.av-1z47md-9ad6541ce8ccd6b712920b7f69739ad8{\npadding:0 0 50px 0;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1z47md-9ad6541ce8ccd6b712920b7f69739ad8 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-41  el_before_av_button  avia-builder-el-first  first flex_column_div  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-l4qtkrei-f36427b63bedf73b27a81f9d369137af\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-l4qtkrei-f36427b63bedf73b27a81f9d369137af{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-l4qtkrei-f36427b63bedf73b27a81f9d369137af .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-l4qtkrei-f36427b63bedf73b27a81f9d369137af .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-l4qtkrei-f36427b63bedf73b27a81f9d369137af av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-42  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Combination skin: The right care<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lcl04hod-328abe8b8c5da78869871b3c398a7f49 '  ><div class='avia_textblock einruck halfwidth2 av_inherit_color'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Just as with cleansing, you should also balance the very different needs of your skin when it comes to care. The best way to achieve this is to combine two different skincare products that suit your skin type:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Dry skin areas<\/strong> need richer care with <strong>moisturizing active ingredients<\/strong> to support the skin barrier.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oily skin<\/strong> does not need additional oil, but it does need <strong>moisture<\/strong>. So don&#8217;t just skip the moisturizer, but use a product with the label &#8220;non-comedogenic&#8221;. This means that it does not promote skin blemishes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You have two options for <strong>application<\/strong>: You can either <strong>layer<\/strong> the two care products <strong>on top of each other<\/strong> or <strong>apply them separately<\/strong>. If you opt for the first option, first apply the moisturizer all over your face and allow it to absorb. Then apply a moisturizing face cream to the dry cheek and eye area. Alternatively, simply apply the two products separately.<\/p>\n<p>In general, you should always keep a close eye on your skin and adjust your skincare routine if the condition of your skin changes. Bear in mind that your combination skin may tend to be oily in summer and dry in winter.<\/p>\n<p>You can also find more skincare tips in our guides on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/en\/?page_id=7665\">dry skin<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/en\/?page_id=7771\">oily skin<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div  id=\"termin_button\"  class='avia-button-wrap av-7nnsl-6212d6d34b551e3e1074e8bc921ae3ba-wrap avia-button-center  avia-builder-el-44  el_after_av_one_full  avia-builder-el-last '><a href='https:\/\/scheduler.mobimed.at\/goaesthetic\/?showCards=true&amp;showPrice=false&amp;location=none&amp;disableUserSelection=true'  class='avia-button av-7nnsl-6212d6d34b551e3e1074e8bc921ae3ba av-link-btn avia-icon_select-yes-left-icon avia-size-large avia-position-center avia-color-theme-color'  target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"  aria-label=\"Arrange appointment\"><span class='avia_button_icon avia_button_icon_left avia-iconfont avia-font-entypo-fontello' data-av_icon='\ue87d' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' ><\/span><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >Arrange appointment<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='faq'  class='avia-section av-l4qtn67q-c80de8e0156a0d1ae9d82ce7d13458a5 main_color avia-section-huge avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-45  el_after_av_section  avia-builder-el-last  avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap sidebar_right'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-7792'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-iijjx-99887c43f6bcb1822ddd4f096ea4dd1a av_one_full  avia-builder-el-46  el_before_av_four_fifth  avia-builder-el-first  first flex_column_div  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-l4qtnirt-5ce564ce7e32ea2c2fc5eb64266bdca1\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-l4qtnirt-5ce564ce7e32ea2c2fc5eb64266bdca1{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-l4qtnirt-5ce564ce7e32ea2c2fc5eb64266bdca1 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-l4qtnirt-5ce564ce7e32ea2c2fc5eb64266bdca1 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-l4qtnirt-5ce564ce7e32ea2c2fc5eb64266bdca1 av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-47  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Any questions about combination skin?
