Why Should You Understand Your Skin Before Starting a Skincare Routine?
A healthy, glowing complexion doesn’t come from following skincare trends or using expensive products. It begins with truly understanding your skin—its type, current condition, and changing needs. At Ecamels, we believe that knowing your skin is the foundation of effective, personalized skincare.
When you understand what your skin needs, choosing the right products becomes easier—and results come faster.
The 5 Basic Skin Types and How to Identify Yours
Before choosing a cleanser, moisturizer, or treatment, it’s essential to know your skin type. At Ecamels, our skincare advisors base their product recommendations on five common skin types:
Identifying your skin type helps ensure you choose the right formulas and avoid irritation or breakouts.
Beyond Skin Type: Understanding Skin Condition
Even if your skin type is consistent, its condition can change daily or seasonally. For example, oily skin can become dehydrated in winter, or sensitive after using retinoids.
Common skin conditions to consider:
At Ecamels, we emphasize tailoring your skincare to your skin’s current condition—not just its type—to achieve optimal results.

Your skin’s needs evolve with age. Ecamels designs skincare routines and product lines to meet these changing demands:
Instead of sticking to one routine for years, Ecamels encourages you to adjust your skincare strategy with time and age.
Common Mistakes When You Don’t Understand Your Skin – What Ecamels Warns Against
1. Following Trends Without Knowing Your Skin
Many of our clients come to Ecamels after experiencing irritation from viral products like high-strength retinol or vitamin C, which may not suit their skin.
2. Overloading Your Skincare Routine
Oily skin with too many moisturizing layers can lead to clogged pores, while dry skin treated with harsh cleansers can become even more irritated.
3. Confusing Oily Skin with Dehydrated Skin
Oily skin doesn’t always mean it’s moisturized. Often, it’s your skin overcompensating for a lack of water—a condition Ecamels frequently helps clients identify and correct.
