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.

Morning Routine

Step 1: Cleanse

Rejuran Moisture Bubble Cleansing Water

A gentle cleanser designed to remove impurities while helping maintain the skin's natural moisture balance.  For combination skin, avoiding overly harsh cleansing is often just as important as choosing the right treatment products.

Step 2: Hydrate

Alastin HA-IMMERSE Serum

Hydration is one of the most important components of combination skin care.  HA-IMMERSE is designed to provide immediate hydration while supporting the skin's natural hyaluronic acid production over time.  Well-hydrated skin often feels more balanced throughout the day, regardless of whether certain areas are naturally more oily or dry.

Step 3: Protect

Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen

Daily sunscreen helps protect against environmental damage, pigmentation and premature skin ageing.  Consistent sun protection supports both skin health and the long-term benefits of your skincare routine.


Evening Routine

Step 1: Cleanse

Rejuran Moisture Bubble Cleansing Water

Removes sunscreen, excess oil and environmental debris accumulated throughout the day.


Step 2: Support

Rejuran Dual Effect Turnover Ampoule

Designed to support skin repair, hydration and overall skin quality.  This step helps complement hydration-focused products while supporting healthy skin function and barrier resilience.


Step 3: Maintain

Rejuran Repairing Cream

Provides additional hydration and barrier support while helping maintain skin comfort overnight.
