Embarking on your skincare journey can sometimes feel like navigating uncharted waters. With many products and a plethora of advice, where do you begin? Let’s start by understanding the five basic skin types. Knowing your skin type is like having a roadmap to personalized skincare, guiding you to the right Arbonne products for your journey.

1. Normal Skin: The Balanced Act

Normal skin is the ‘Goldilocks’ of skin types – not too oily or dry. It’s characterized by balanced sebum production and minimal imperfections. This skin type feels smooth, with a consistent texture and tone.

Arbonne Recommendations: For normal skin, maintaining balance is key. Arbonne’s RE9 Advanced® Collection offers a harmonious blend of hydration and nourishment that caters perfectly to normal skin, keeping it looking radiant and healthy.

2. Dry Skin: Thirsting for Moisture

Dry skin often feels tight and may show signs like flaking, red patches, or a dull, rough complexion. It’s caused by a lack of oil and moisture, making it crave hydration.

Arbonne Recommendations: To quench dry skin’s thirst, the Arbonne HydrateMe Collection is a savior. Rich in moisture-binding ingredients, it helps replenish and retain hydration, leaving dry skin feeling soft, supple and revitalized.

3. Oily Skin: Shine Control

Oily skin is characterized by excess sebum production, leading to a shiny complexion, enlarged pores, and a tendency towards acne and blackheads.

Arbonne Recommendations: The key is balance, not stripping. Arbonne’s Clear Future Collection gently manages oiliness while ensuring the skin stays hydrated, helping to reduce shine and improve clarity.

4. Combination Skin: Dual Dynamics

Combination skin can be dry or normal in some areas and oily in others, like the T-zone (nose, forehead, and chin). This skin type requires a balancing act in skincare.

Arbonne Recommendations: The Arbonne Intelligence Collection is perfect for combination skin. It’s designed to address diverse needs, offering hydration while managing oil in targeted areas.

5. Sensitive Skin: Gentle Care Needed

Sensitive skin reacts easily to stimuli with redness, itching, or rashes. It requires products that are gentle and soothing.

Arbonne Recommendations: The Arbonne SuperCalm Collection is tailored for sensitive skin. With soothing ingredients, it helps to minimize discomfort and maintain a calm, soothed complexion.


In Conclusion:

Your skin type is a unique aspect of you. Embrace it with the right care and the perfect Arbonne companions. Remember, the journey to healthy skin is ongoing and ever-evolving. As your life changes, so might your skin type and needs. Stay attuned to your skin, and don’t hesitate to adjust your regimen as you go along.
