1. Emulsion Textures → Oily Skin with Weak Barrier
Why this texture works:
Supplies lipids in smaller, lighter structures that support the barrier without clogging or heat trapping.
2. Watery / Essence Textures → Dehydration (Not Oil)
Why it matters:
Delivers water rapidly without sealing too early, restoring flexibility before barrier lipids are applied.
3. Gel Textures → Oil Overload & Congestion
Why this texture works:
Evaporates cleanly instead of sitting on skin, preventing oil and heat from being trapped in pores.
4. Milk / Cream Textures → Barrier Stress & Sensitivity
Why this texture works:
Cushions compromised skin, dampening reactivity while reinforcing barrier structure under stress.
5. Jelly / Butter Textures → Irritation & Friction-Prone Skin
Why this texture works:
Adds slip to reduce mechanical stress, limiting friction-triggered heat, redness, and sensitivity.
