What are the four types of skin conditions?
PRESENT: SKIN TYPES
Four skin types: use clues, not guesses
LEVEL 1 SKIN CARE • SESSION 2

Oily type
Dehydrated condition

S
Secretion
Think of SHAPES as a memory tool. Each letter links to one skin function.
PRESENT: SHAPES
Six functions in simple salon language
LEVEL 1 SKIN CARE • SESSION 2
21
S
Sensation
Nerve endings detect touch, temperature and pain.
H
Heat regulation
Sweating and blood-flow changes help control temperature.
A
Absorption
The outer skin allows limited entry of some substances.
P
Protection
The barrier helps protect against damage, microbes and water loss.
E
Excretion
Sweat removes water, salts and small amounts of waste.
S
Secretion
Sebaceous glands release sebum onto the skin.
GUIDED PRACTICE

Case study: clues, skin type and cleanser choice
PAIRS • 5 MIN
LEVEL 1 SKIN CARE • SESSION 2
27
CLIENT A
The forehead and nose show visible shine and larger-looking pores. The cheeks look comfortable and show little visible oil. The client reports occasional tightness on the cheeks after cleansing and wants the skin to feel comfortable.
PAIR JOB
1. Highlight visible clues.
2. Circle reported clues.
3. Identify the main skin type.
4. Select a tutor-approved cleanser.
5. Give one reason.
Cold call: each pair must explain one piece of evidence.
STRETCH AND CHALLENGE
Overlapping clues need one more question or observation
LEVEL 1 SKIN CARE • SESSION 2
28
CLIENT B
Shine is visible on the forehead and nose. The cheeks show little visible oil. The client reports no tightness.
CLIENT C
Shine is visible across most of the face. Pores look larger around the nose and cheeks. The client reports oil returning quickly after cleansing.
Compare the evidence. What further question or observation would make your decision more reliable without diagnosing?
