Which skin type has a good balance of oil and water?

  1. Combination

  2. Dehydrated

  3. Normal

  4. Oily

The correct answer is: Normal

Normal skin type has a good balance of oil and water. This means that the skin is neither too oily nor too dry, making it the ideal and well-balanced skin type. Combination skin is characterized by having areas that are both oily and dry, while oily skin has an excess of oil production. Dehydrated skin lacks water moisture, leading to tightness and flakiness.
