Keep Normal Skin Beautiful:
Use Essential Oils

What Actually Is Normal Skin?

Skin is classified as “normal” when it is not too oily nor too dry. Normal skin has medium sized clear pores with little or no blemishes.  The texture is smooth and even, velvety to the touch and a good healthy glow. Use balanced and not too harsh facial products. Exfoliate regularly and use a lightweight cleanser and moisturizer.

Normal skin is very rare in adults (it is the beautiful skin of babies and young girls), and, if you have normal skin take good care of it and it will keep you looking younger than your years.
