GlossarySkin Quality

overall health and appearance of skin, including texture and hydration

Skin quality refers to the overall health and appearance of the skin, encompassing factors such as texture, elasticity, hydration, and pigmentation. For a layperson, it means how smooth, firm, and evenly colored your skin looks and feels. For a professional, it involves assessing the skin's structural integrity, moisture levels, and the presence of any irregularities or damage, which can be influenced by genetics, environmental factors, and skincare practices.
