Daily Cosmetics: Checking Ingredients That Match Your Skin Type

Medical Column | December 27, 2024 | Soul Plastic Surgery Dermatology & Aesthetic Center

Even high-end skincare products can trigger breakouts or contact dermatitis if their active ingredients and vehicle bases do not match your specific skin type and barrier condition.

Ingredient Selection Guide by Skin Type

• Oily & Acne-Prone Skin: Look for non-comedogenic, oil-free formulas containing salicylic acid (BHA), LHA, niacinamide, tea tree, or centella asiatica. Avoid heavy occlusive oils such as coconut oil or isopropyl myristate.
• Dry & Dehydrated Skin: Prioritize humectants and barrier lipids—hyaluronic acid, glycerin, ceramides, squalane, and panthenol.
• Sensitive & Rosacea-Prone Skin: Avoid artificial fragrances, high concentrations of denatured alcohol, and harsh physical scrubs; choose minimal-ingredient, hypoallergenic soothing formulas.
• Avoid Mixing Conflicting Actives: Using high-strength retinol simultaneously with high-percentage AHA/BHA acids or pure vitamin C can cause severe barrier irritation.
