What Causes Combination Skin?
Combination skin is less often caused by external factors—it’s more about the genetic hand you’re dealt. However, our sebaceous glands can be influenced by hormones and the seasons. As we journey through life, our skin often adapts and changes, becoming drier with a decrease in oil production due to hormonal fluctuations.
Signs of Combination Skin Type
- Shiny T-zone, dry cheeks: Excess oil in the forehead, nose, and chin with dryness on the cheeks.
- Pore size variation: Larger pores in the T-zone, smaller on the cheeks.
- Uneven texture: Smooth and oily in some areas, rough or flaky in others.
- Breakouts and dry patches: Acne in oily areas while dry spots appear elsewhere.
- Skincare product reactivity: Different products may suit certain areas but not others.

Should I use a moisturizer if I have combination skin?
Absolutely. Even oily areas of your skin need hydration. The key is to choose a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer that won't clog pores.
Is it possible for my skin type to change?
Yes, skin types can change over time due to factors like age, climate, and hormonal changes. It's important to reassess your skincare routine periodically and make adjustments as needed.
How often should I exfoliate combination skin?
Gentle exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells that can clog pores, especially in the oily T-zone, but it’s important not to overdo it. Generally, exfoliating 1-2 times a week is sufficient. Choose a mild chemical exfoliator to prevent irritation and dryness in the less oily areas.
What ingredients can help combination skin?
Your board-certified dermatologist may recommend active ingredients such as benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, and glycolic acid to target oil production and unclog pores. At Frownies, we focus on gentle yet effective plant-based ingredients to bring your skin into its natural homeostasis, balancing its oily and dry combination areas.
