YOU HAVE OILY SKIN: Its texture is uneven with enlarged and visible pores. The surface is greasy, subject to blemishes and difficult to manage on daily basis. In a constant state of imbalance, it is easily dehydrated and irritable. Stress and outside aggressions (pollution, sun, wind) accentuate sebum secretions making the skin even shinier. Your skin longs for harmony, yet its fragile equilibrium must be respected. Well adapted care solutions make this possible.
Beauty tips:
Stick to a rigorous beauty routine: Cleanse your face in the morning and evening with mild, non-irritating and soap-free products. Then apply a fluid emulsion specifically formulated for oily skin. In the morning, apply a mattifying or anti-blemish moisturizer, according to your specific needs. In the evening, apply a reparative care product for oily skin. Often forgotten but absolutely indispensable, exfoliate 2 to 3 times a week with a scrub or mask, paying special attention to oily areas. In case of sun exposure, it is important to protect your skin with a sun protection agent, either fluid or gel, of average protection index and adapted to your skin type.
YOU HAVE COMBINATION SKIN: Excess sebum in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) makes the surface of this area uneven with enlarged and visible pores. On the rest of the face, notably the cheeks, the skin is normal with a matte and uniform aspect. Your skin is in need of care solutions capable of stabilizing sebum levels in the T-zone while guarding the cheeks’ moisturization.
Beauty tips:
Remove make-up and cleanse your face in the morning and evening with a mild product, paying special attention to the oily areas. Apply a fluid emulsion specifically formulated for combination skin. In the morning, apply a mattifying moisturizer that will stabilize sebum levels, and in the evening use a reparative care product for combination skin. Exfoliate 2 to 3 times a week with a scrub or mask, paying special attention to oily areas. Finally, avoid exposure to sun without proper protection. The sun is a false friend of oily skin. While it may seem to improve oiliness by drying skin out, it also provokes further aggravation following exposure.
YOU HAVE NORMAL SKIN: Smooth and comfortable, it’s baby-soft to the touch and doesn’t present any particular problems. Water and sebum levels are in perfect equilibrium. Its aspect is matte and its texture is uniform. You’re looking to maintain this balance with adapted care solutions.
YOU HAVE DRY SKIN: Its texture is fine but lacks radiance and you experience frequent tugging sensations. Sebum deficient and poorly protected, your skin tends to dehydrate and become fragile. Because of this thirst, you experience permanent discomfort. You need some nourishing care solutions for rebalancing your skin and awakening your complexion.
Beauty tips:
Cleanse your face in the morning and evening with a mild, non-drying cleanser. In the morning, delicately apply a protective moisturizer to calm tugging and discomfort and to protect the skin from outside stresses. In the evening, apply on the face, neck and upper chest a product that restructures the skin’s intracellular cement. Once or twice a week, apply an intense moisturizing mask. Finally, don’t forget to drink 1.5 liters of water every day!
YOU HAVE SENSITIVE SKIN: Reactive and intolerant, sensitive skin is subject to stinging, tugging and redness. These uncomfortable sensations can be exaggerated in response to various internal and/or external factors: physical (sun, heat, cold), chemical (cosmetics, soap, water, pollution), psychological (stress) or even hormones.
Beauty tips:
Cleanse your face in the morning and evening with a mild, non-drying cleanser. In the morning, delicately apply a protective moisturizer to calm tugging and discomfort and to protect the skin from outside stresses. In the evening, apply on the face, neck and upper chest a product that restructures the skin’s intracellular cement. Once or twice a week, apply an intense moisturizing mask. Limit sun exposure and intake of spicy food and alcoholic beverages. Finally, don’t forget to drink 1.5 liters of water every day!
YOU HAVE MATURE SKIN: Sensitive and thinning due to a decrease in epidermal thickness, mature skin may appear saggy, lacking in elasticity and dried out. It presents pigmentary irregularities and very little resistance to outside stress. Mature skin is subsequently extremely sensitive. Upon sun exposure, it is imperative to protect your skin with sunblock of an average protection index that is adapted to your skin type.
Beauty Tips:
Cleanse your skin in the morning and evening with a mild cleanser. In the morning, delicately apply a protective anti-aging moisturizer on the face, eye contour, lips and neck to calm tugging and discomfort and to protect the skin from outside stresses. In the evening, apply a regenerative anti-aging cream on the face, neck and upper chest. Finally, don’t forget to drink 1.5 liters of water every day !
