Skincare Routine Finder by Skin Type

Use the SOVAH skincare routine finder to match your skin type, main concern and preferred number of steps with a suitable daily routine. The result recommends one SOVAH routine and, only when useful, one targeted add-on.

How the skincare routine finder works

The finder asks about five factors: your skin type, your main concern, how sensitive your skin feels, the result you want and whether you prefer a simple or more complete routine. These answers are combined to select the closest available SOVAH routine. The tool is a practical product guide and not a medical diagnosis.

Skin type and skin concern are different

Dry skin often needs gentle cleansing and richer moisturising care.
Oily skin can benefit from effective cleansing and lightweight hydration without over-cleansing.
Combination skin usually needs balanced care for both oilier and drier areas.
Sensitive skin benefits from a simple routine and slowly introduced products.
Normal skin is generally balanced but still needs cleansing, hydration and daily care.
Dehydrated skin lacks water and can occur alongside any skin type, including oily skin.

A concern describes what you want to address, such as blemishes, sensitivity, dull-looking skin, uneven-looking tone or fine lines. That is why two people with the same skin type can receive a different recommendation.

What a basic skincare routine needs

Cleanse: remove dirt, excess oil and daily buildup without making the routine unnecessarily harsh.
Hydrate or target: add a toner or serum when it matches your skin's needs.
Moisturise: support a comfortable skin feel and help limit moisture loss.
Protect during the day: finish with a suitable broad-spectrum sunscreen, especially when using exfoliating or active products.

Simple SOVAH routines contain two clear core steps. Complete routines contain several compatible products in a practical order. More products are not automatically better; consistency and suitability matter more.

Before using a new product

Check the full ingredient list on the product page and patch test each new product before first use. Introduce one new product at a time, especially when your skin is sensitive or when you use exfoliating formulas. Stop use if persistent irritation occurs and ask a qualified professional for advice when you have a diagnosed skin condition or ongoing symptoms.
