What is a key characteristic of normal skin?

  1. Excess sebum production

  2. Balanced oil and water

  3. Dry and tight

  4. Sensitive and easily inflamed

The correct answer is: Balanced oil and water

Balanced oil and water is a key characteristic of normal skin. Normal skin is considered well-balanced, with an appropriate level of both oil (sebum) and water content. This balance helps the skin appear healthy, hydrated, and supple. Excess sebum production (Option A) is more characteristic of oily skin types, while dry and tight (Option C) is typical of dry skin types. Sensitivity and easily inflammation (Option D) are characteristics of sensitive skin, which is different from normal skin.
