Dermatologist Recommended Skincare Haircare @drteowanlin www.drtwlderma.com

Skin flooding involves layering skincare i.e. serum, lotion, cream, ointment ala K-beauty multi-step skincare routine style whereas the concept of skin streaming refers to just sticking to a “streamlined” as-needed philosophy for your daily regimen.

Practically speaking, these trends make no material impact on what dermatologists actually recommend, based on the core principles of:

Choosing efficient skincare actives i.e. cosmeceuticals backed by evidence based medicine
Not exposing your skin to unnecessary, multiple irritating actives, applicable in the context of acids such as AHAs, BHAs, retinols, retinoids which can cause skin sensitisation
Respecting the skin barrier overall

How do you carry out skin streaming?
That being said, I feel the concept of skin streaming is most relevant for those who are relatively new to complex skincare regimens and may be confused about where to begin in the first place.

Here is my cheat sheet for the 3 skin types dermatologists generally encounter:

Acne-prone, oily skin
Normal/combination skin
Dry/sensitive skin
First up: here’s a quick test for you to determine which skin type your skin belongs to:

Wash your face with your usual cleanser, preferably one that is gentle and dermatologist recommended for sensitive skin types
Dry your skin by patting it with a soft towel
20-30 minutes later, have a feel of your skin, or if you prefer, use a piece of tissue/blotting paper
If only your forehead, nose and chin i.e. T-zone, feels greasy, you have combination skin. If your entire face feels oily, you have oily skin. Lastly, if your skin feels dry all over you have dry skin.

Acne-prone, oily skin
In the case of oily skin, an effective skincare approach helps to

Relieve skin discomfort (sensation of oiliness)
Improve high shine complexions i.e. mattifying effect
Reduce oxidative stress caused by excess oil production that leads to accelerated aging
Reduce inflammation that causes acne bumps
