Skin Type vs. Skin Condition

What's your skin type? Most people have an understanding of their skin that was sold to them by a cosmetic manufacturer's marketing team to sell their latest, and greatest product. Now, not saying that no one correctly sells information with their skin care; I'm just saying, I've sold a lot of product to many people, nationally and internationally, and I know for a fact, there were many skin care consumers buying products that were not effectively helping themselves achieve their skin care goals. The reason being, most people want to identify the skin condition a skin type, instead of properly identifying the skin type, and then addressing the skin condition. It really makes a big difference, actually, when you correctly understand your skin type, you will be able to get a proper handle on the skin condition.

Skin Type is determined by pore size, elasticity level, oil and water balance in the skin. 

Skin Condition is usually symptoms that resulting from unbalanced skin. 

Simply put, every skin type has a condition that may come from it, and it is up to you to know what your skin type is so that you can maintain balance to minimize any conditions that may come about.

Skin type terms: Dry, Normal, Oily, Combination

Skin condition terms: Dehydrated, Aging, Acne, Eczema, Psoriasis

See how terms get all confused, I bet you were shopping for Anti-Aging product like skin type products, when you should have been looking for products for Dry to Normal skin.

Or, maybe you were seeking acne products when you should have been seeking products for oil balancing. 

The most common misunderstanding I have seen is the Dry and Dehydration confusion... Dry skin is a type of skin that has little or no oil produced from the oil glands of the skin, dehydration of the skin can occur in any skin type, and has a lot to do with the lack of water in the oil/water balance needed to maintain skin moisture levels.
