Skin type quiz

Answer five quick questions about your skin to identify its dominant type (normal, dry, oily, combination or sensitive) and get a few tailored skincare tips.

Example:

A few hours after cleansing, your skin feels:

At the end of the day, your skin is shiny:

Your pores are:

When you try a new product, your skin reacts (redness, tingling):

Is the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) clearly oilier than the rest of the face?

This question mainly helps tell combination skin apart from uniformly oily or dry skin.

How it works

This quiz relies on five classic questions used to characterize a skin type: how your skin feels after cleansing, shine at the end of the day, pore size, reactivity to products, and the difference between the T-zone and the rest of the face. Each answer awards points to the different profiles (normal, dry, oily, combination, sensitive), and the profile with the most points is chosen as the result.

Why isn't sensitive skin always the result, even if I sometimes react to products?

Sensitivity can overlap with any skin type (oily or dry skin can also be sensitive). This quiz only returns “sensitive skin” as the final result if your answers show a clearly dominant reactivity; otherwise, it favors the type that best describes the overall texture of your skin.

Can the result change with the seasons?

Yes, skin type isn't always fixed: cold, heat, stress or hormonal changes can make it shift temporarily (normal skin can become drier in winter, for example). Retake the quiz if your skin seems to have changed to get up-to-date advice.
