Up until age 35, I had oily skin. I mean so oily, I would regularly take paper napkins to my face to soak up the excess oils. I found the oiliness annoying, of course, until I turned 35 and my skin dried up like the Saharan Desert. It was then I quickly realized the annoyances of dry skin (flakes, ashy pallor, tightness all the time, more susceptible to wrinkles).
Most women actually have combination -- or normal -- skin. Find out what your skin type is and how to properly care for it in What Type of Skin Do You Have?
More fun tips on skincare:
- Women with darker skin tend to develop fewer wrinkles and at a later age than lighter skinned women.
- Studies of identical twins past age 50 show that the twin who smokes looks much older than the twin who doesn't and the twin who's up to 20 pounds heavier can look 10 years younger than the "fitter," thinner twin.
