Summary: | The invention relates to a method in various embodiments for determining a condition of the skin. The method can comprise: determining a skin lipid content, having: for at least one region of the skin (102H) of a user, contacting the skin region by means of a test area (104F), wherein the test area (104F) is configured in such a way that the transparency of the test area changes, depending on a skin lipid content, recording a quantity of light by means of a digital camera (178), wherein the recorded light is emitted by a light source (106), passes through the test area (104F), and reaches the camera (108), wherein the digital camera (108) is part of a portable device, comparing the quantity of recorded light with a reference quantity of light for a non-contacted test area (104F), and determining the skin lipid content by using the comparison, and determining the condition of the skin on the basis of the determined skin lipid content. |
