Your skin has been telling you what it needs for a long time. The tightness an hour after a shower. The shins that flake first every winter. The balm that feels like relief on your legs and like too much on your back. Choose the type that sounds most like yours, and we'll show you the ritual we'd build around it.

The baselines

Dry skin

This isn’t winter. This is your baseline.

If your skin has always run dry, it isn’t something you’re doing wrong. It simply makes less oil than it needs, so water slips away faster than your skin can hold onto it. You feel that as tightness first, then roughness, then flaking. Cold air makes it louder. A long, hot shower makes it louder still. What helps isn’t scrubbing harder, it’s putting moisture back while your skin is still damp enough to keep it.

You might notice

  • Tightness within a minute or two of towelling off
  • Shins, elbows and forearms that flake first
  • A dull, thirsty look even on the days you moisturize
  • An itch that arrives at night in the cold months

Feels like

Tight, thin, quietly itchy

Where it lives

Shins, elbows, forearms, hands

Be gentle with

Hot water, long soaks, daily scrubbing

Your daily ritual

  1. Nettoyant Moisture Aloe Ageless

    Cleanse without stripping. Keep the water warm, not hot.

  2. Lotion probiotique défiant l’âge

    Smooth on while your skin is still damp, within about three minutes.

  3. Baume réparateur Concreta

    Press into the thirstiest spots last, so everything stays sealed underneath.

The baselines

Normal skin

Comfortable, and worth protecting.

Normal skin makes roughly as much oil as it uses, so it rarely asks you for anything. That’s exactly why it gets forgotten. Then seasons shift, hormones shift, and one winter you notice your legs feel different than they used to. A calm, unhurried daily ritual is what keeps your skin where it is, and it takes about ninety seconds.

You might notice

  • Skin that feels like nothing at all an hour after a shower
  • Even texture across arms, legs and back
  • A little dryness in deep winter, and not much more
  • New products come and go without drama

Feels like

Soft, even, easy to live in

Where it lives

Nowhere in particular

Be gentle with

Assuming it will stay this way on its own

Your daily ritual

  1. Nettoyant Moisture Aloe Ageless

    Every day. Aloe leads the formula, so it cleans without taking.

  2. Lotion probiotique défiant l’âge

    Every day, everywhere. This is the whole habit.

  3. Huile corporelle lumineuse en cachemire

    A few nights a week, whenever your skin asks for a little more.

If this only sounds partly like you

The baselines

Combination skin

Two kinds of skin, one body.

Oil glands aren’t spread evenly across you, so your back can shine while your shins go chalky, and both are true on the same day. Treating all of it as oily leaves half of you worse off. The kinder approach is one gentle base everywhere, then something richer only where your skin actually asks for it.

You might notice

  • Shine across the back, chest and shoulders
  • Tight, ashy shins and forearms at the same time
  • A rich cream that feels lovely on your legs and heavy on your back
  • A balance that moves with the season

Feels like

Slick in places, tight in others

Where it lives

Oil on the back and chest, dryness on shins and arms

Be gentle with

One strong product used everywhere

Your daily ritual

  1. Nettoyant Moisture Aloe Ageless

    Everywhere. One gentle cleanser is the shared base.

  2. Lotion probiotique défiant l’âge

    Everywhere too, light and even. Don’t skip the oily half.

  3. Huile corporelle lumineuse en cachemire

    Only where you’re dry. Shins, elbows, the backs of your arms.

The baselines

Oily skin

Moisture isn’t the problem here.

Oily skin on the body usually gathers across the back, chest and shoulders, where the glands sit closest together. The instinct is to strip it away, and stripping is what keeps the cycle turning. Your skin reads the loss as damage and makes more to make up for it. Gentle cleansing and a light layer of moisture, every day, is what finally settles things.

You might notice

  • Visible shine on the back, chest and shoulders
  • Breakouts on the body, especially after a workout
  • Rich balms that sit on top instead of sinking in
  • Skin that looks oily and still feels tight underneath

Feels like

Slick on the surface, tight beneath it

Where it lives

Back, chest, shoulders, scalp

Be gentle with

Stripping cleansers, and skipping moisturizer altogether

Your daily ritual

  1. Nettoyant Moisture Aloe Ageless

    Twice a day is fine. Gentle will always beat harsh here.

  2. Polish corporel non zenté

    Once or twice a week, to keep things clear and smooth.

  3. Lotion probiotique défiant l’âge

    A thin, even layer. Hydrated skin makes less oil, not more.

The overlays

Sensitive skin

Fewer ingredients, fewer surprises.

Sensitivity isn’t a level of dryness, it’s a lower threshold. Your barrier lets irritants in sooner and reacts harder once they arrive, so something that’s unremarkable for everyone else lands on you as stinging, warmth, or an itch that builds slowly. Fragrance is the most common culprit. That’s exactly why UNZENTED exists, with no added scent and an ingredient list short enough to read.

You might notice

  • Stinging or warmth within minutes of trying something new
  • Flushing after a hot shower
  • An itch that arrives as your skin dries down
  • A history of reacting to fragrance or essential oils

Feels like

Reactive, warm, quick to speak up

Where it lives

Anywhere, and worst where skin is thinnest

Be gentle with

Added fragrance, long ingredient lists, skipping the patch test

Your daily ritual

  1. Lavage à l’aloès sans étanchéité

    No added scent, and nothing for your skin to negotiate with.

  2. Lotion probiotique non zenté défiant l’âge

    On damp skin. Probiotic peptides support the barrier itself.

  3. Baume réparateur Concreta non zenté

    For the spots that flare. Rich, targeted, and completely unscented.

The overlays

Mature skin

Skin that has lived, and shows it.

Somewhere past the middle of things, oil production slows and skin holds water less easily than it once did. Your arms feel finer. Your shins go dry earlier in the year than they used to. None of this is a failure in your routine, it’s your skin telling you its needs have changed. Richer moisture, applied consistently, does more here than any single dramatic product ever will.

You might notice

  • Skin that feels finer, and slower to spring back
  • Crepey texture on the upper arms and inner elbows
  • Drier than it was ten years ago, in the same climate
  • Marks and bruises that take their time fading

Feels like

Fine, soft, papery in places

Where it lives

Upper arms, hands, shins, chest

Be gentle with

Harsh scrubs, hot water, skipping days

Your daily ritual

  1. Nettoyant Moisture Aloe Ageless

    Gentle daily cleansing. Finer skin wants less friction.

  2. Lotion probiotique défiant l’âge

    Every day without exception. Consistency is the active ingredient.

  3. Huile corporelle lumineuse en cachemire

    Layer over lotion at night for arms, chest and hands.

One thing worth knowing

Your type, and what's simply happening right now

Your type

Mostly inherited

How much oil your skin makes on its own. You were largely born with it, it shifts slowly across a lifetime, and it's the thing worth building a routine around. Dry, normal, combination and oily all live here.

A condition

Passing through

What your skin is doing this week. Dehydration, sun exposure, winter flaking, a reaction to something new. Conditions ease once the cause does, and oily skin can be dehydrated at the very same time.

The overlays

Sit on top of either

Sensitive and mature describe how your skin behaves rather than how much oil it makes, so they layer over any type. Sensitive and dry is common. So is mature and combination. Read both panels when that's you.

If you've been fighting your skin for a while, it's worth asking whether you've been treating a passing condition as though it were your type.
