Take Control of Combination Skin with the Right Routine
One minute, your T-zone is an oil slick. The next, your cheeks feel tight and dry. Combination skin can be frustrating, but with the right skincare, you don’t have to choose between hydration and shine control. At Ultraceuticals, we create skincare that works with your skin's surface natural rhythms so you get balance, every day.
The Best Skincare Products for Combination Skin
Your skin's surface has different needs in different areas, and our targeted products ensure every part gets exactly what it needs. Whether you're dealing with oily skin, dry patches, or sensitive skin types, we have a solution:
Ultra Balancing Gel Cleanser – Deep-cleansing without disrupting moisture levels. Keepspores fresh without over-drying.
Ultra B² Hydrating Serum – Hydrates exactly where it’s needed with hyaluronic acid, preventing dehydration without adding extra shine.

How to Build the Perfect Combination Skin Routine
A one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work here. You need a routine for combination skin that caters to your skin’s unique demands.
Step 1: Cleanse (But Keep It Gentle)
The Ultra Brightening Foaming Cleanser removes excess oil from your T-zone while ensuring your cheeks stay hydrated.
Step 2: Tone for Balance
A toner helps with oil absorbing, keeping shiny skin in check without dehydrating dry areas. Those with sensitive skin should opt for an alcohol-free formula to avoid irritation.
Step 3: Hydration Where You Need It
A hydrating serum like the Ultra B² Hydrating Serum ensures dry patches get moisture without overwhelming oilier zones. With ingredients that reach deep into the skin, delivering targeted hydration.
Step 4: Moisturise Without the Grease
A lightweight moisturiser is essential. The Ultra Moisturiser Cream hydrates normal skin, combination skin types, and sensitive skin without clogging pores or making shiny skin worse.
Step 5: Sun Protection Every Single Day
UV rays don’t care about your skin type. The Ultra UV Protective Daily Moisturiser SPF 50 Hydrating & Ultra UV Protective Daily Moisturiser SPF 50 Mattifying provide essential broad spectrum sun protection while maintaining a smooth, fresh feel.
Why Seasonal Changes Wreak Havoc on Combination Skin
Summer: Heat and humidity trigger excess oil production: opt for oil-free, lightweight skincare.
Winter: Cold air strips moisture, making dry areas even drier. Layer hydrating serums and richer moisturisers.
Spring & Autumn: Transitional seasons require flexibility: adjust your skincare routine based on how your skin reacts.
Myths About Combination Skin And Why They’re Wrong
“You should dry out oily areas.” No. Over-drying causes your skin to produce even more oil.
“Combination skin doesn’t need moisturiser.” Skipping hydration leads to more oil production, not less.
“You need two separate routines.” Too complicated. The right skincare products handle both oily and dry zones in one go.
FAQs: Your Combination Skin Questions, Answered
Can I Use One Moisturiser for My Whole Face?
Yes! The Ultra Moisturiser Cream balances hydration without making oily skin worse.
Should I Exfoliate If My Skin is Both Oily and Dry?
Yes, but carefully.Exfoliating removes oil buildup and flaky skin, but don’t overdo it: 1-2 times per week is enough.
Why Does My Skin Feel More Oily in Some Months and Dry in Others?
Seasonal shifts! Heat, humidity, and cold change how much oil your skin produces. Adjust your skincare accordingly.
How Do I Know If I Need More Hydration or Less Oil?
A tight, flaky feeling = lack of moisture. A shiny T-zone = excess oil. Listen to what your skin's surface is telling you.
What’s the Best Night Routine for Combination Skin?
Use a gentle cleanser, apply a hydrating serum, and finish with a lightweight, oil-free moisturiser. Add an exfoliant a few times per week for balance.
How Do I Adjust My Routine for Stress or Diet Changes?
Stress and diet impact oil production and hydration. Cut back on sugar and processed foods, and drink plenty of water to help maintain balance.
