  Anyone know how to determine facial skin?
  Like oily, dry etc. Cause my face, say oily not oily, say dry not dry. hard to treat.

  Combination skin, perhaps.
  
  Uncertain don't laugh, it's possible to have oily skin that's dry at the same time. Oil is not the same as moisture.

  see a dermatologist if u are really keen to find out what is your skin type and how to properly treat it.
  another option would be to seek help from sales assistant selling skincare products, they will be able to determine for u too.

  So dry skin is dry skin and oily skin is oily skin? But even though my skin is oily, it flakes sometimes. And the area around my nose bridge is like, wrinkly.
