When it comes to skincare, one size definitely does not fit all. Your skin type—whether dry, oily, combination, or sensitive—determines what kind of care it needs to stay balanced and glowing. In the tropical climate of the Philippines, understanding your skin type becomes even more important, as heat and humidity can affect oil levels, hydration, and sensitivity.

At SKINDough, we believe skincare should be simple, safe, and effective for all Filipinos. That’s why our products are crafted to adapt to different skin types, genders, and ages. In this guide, let’s break down the best skincare routine for your specific skin type and highlight which SKINDough essentials work best for you.

🌿 Step 1: Identify Your Skin Type

Before building your routine, here’s a quick cheat sheet:

  • Dry Skin: Feels tight, flaky, or rough.
  • Oily Skin: Shiny, prone to breakouts, and excess sebum.
  • Combination Skin: Oily in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) but dry/normal elsewhere.
  • Sensitive Skin: Easily irritated, reacts to new products, and prone to redness.

Now, let’s match SKINDough products to each type!

💧 Skincare for Dry Skin

Challenges: Lack of moisture, flakiness, dull appearance.
Routine Goals: Hydrate deeply and protect skin barrier.

Recommended Routine with SKINDough:

  1. Cleanse: Use The Body Soap—gentle enough to clean without stripping essential oils.
  2. Moisturize: Apply The Body Lotion enriched with snail mucin for hydration and skin repair.
  3. Protect: Always apply The Sunscreen, as dry skin is more prone to sun damage.

Pro Tip: Layer lotion on damp skin to lock in hydration.

🌞 Skincare for Oily Skin

Challenges: Excess shine, clogged pores, acne breakouts.
Routine Goals: Balance oil without over-drying.

Recommended Routine with SKINDough:

  1. Cleanse: Wash with The Body Soap to remove dirt and oil buildup.
  2. Hydrate: Don’t skip lotion—The Body Lotion provides lightweight hydration that prevents oil glands from overproducing.
  3. Protect: The Sunscreen is your best friend. Lightweight and non-greasy, it protects without clogging pores.

Pro Tip: Use oil-blotting sheets during the day instead of over-washing, which can trigger more oil production.

⚖️ Skincare for Combination Skin

SKINDough THE Sunscreen

Challenges: Oily T-zone, dry or normal cheeks, uneven texture.
Routine Goals: Balance hydration across different zones.

Recommended Routine with SKINDough:

  1. Cleanse: Start with The Body Soap for a gentle, all-over cleanse.
  2. Moisturize: Apply The Body Lotion, focusing more on drier areas and lightly on oily zones.
  3. Protect: Use The Sunscreen generously across the face and neck.

Pro Tip: Spot-treat oily zones with a lighter layer of moisturizer to avoid greasiness.

🌸 Skincare for Sensitive Skin

SKINDough THE Body Soap

Challenges: Redness, irritation, allergic reactions, dryness.
Routine Goals: Calm and protect the skin barrier.

Recommended Routine with SKINDough:

  1. Cleanse: Stick with The Body Soap, which avoids harsh chemicals and fragrances.
  2. Moisturize: The Body Lotion with snail mucin soothes and strengthens sensitive skin.
  3. Protect: Apply The Sunscreen daily—even sensitive skin needs UV protection, and SKINDough’s formula is gentle enough for daily use.

Pro Tip: Always patch test new products and avoid mixing too many actives at once.

🥗 Lifestyle Tips for All Skin Types

While your skincare routine matters, lifestyle also plays a big role:

  • Stay hydrated: Drink 2–3 liters of water daily, especially in the humid Philippine climate (Philippine Star).
  • Eat skin-loving foods: Fruits like papaya and watermelon, and omega-rich fish like bangus, boost hydration and skin elasticity (Manila Bulletin).
  • Protect daily: Whether you’re indoors or outdoors, UV rays in the tropics are strong year-round (Inquirer).

Pair these habits with SKINDough essentials, and your skin will thank you.
