Combination Skin
Combination skin can be confusing.
Many patients describe their skin as oily in some areas and dry in others. The forehead, nose and chin may become shiny throughout the day, while the cheeks feel dry, tight or sensitive. This often leads to a cycle of using multiple products to treat different parts of the face separately.
Combination skin usually benefits from a balanced approach focused on hydration, skin barrier support and overall skin quality. The goal is not to treat each area differently, but rather to support the skin as a whole.
Is this guide for you?
This routine may be suitable if you regularly experience:
An oily forehead, nose or chin
Dry or tight cheeks
Variable skin texture
Occasional congestion
Skin that feels unpredictable from one season to the next
Difficulty finding products that seem to suit your entire face
Dr Raj's Note
"Many patients with combination skin assume they need multiple routines for different parts of their face. More often, what the skin needs is consistency. When hydration and barrier function improve, many of the differences between oily and dry areas become easier to manage."
What combination skin usually needs
Combination skin often responds well to a routine that focuses on:
Gentle cleansing
Consistent hydration
Skin barrier support
Skin quality maintenance
Daily sun protection
Rather than trying to aggressively control oil or constantly address dryness, the aim is to create a healthier and more balanced skin environment.

Step 1: Cleanse

Hydration is one of the most important components of combination skin care.
