How a Combination, Oily, or Blemished Skin Works:

The hydrolipidic film and the skin microbiome are a natural shield that protects the skin from infections, blemishes, pollution, and more. Often, skin with imperfections or a dull complexion is also skin that is weakened and/or unbalanced.

That's why when you're looking for a skincare product to cleanse and purify your skin, it's extremely important to ALSO choose a product that won't dry out or unbalance the skin.

The use of drying products to remove excess sebum, which is often characteristic of combination, oily, or blemished skin, can worsen your problem. When the skin is stripped of its natural hydration, sebaceous glands can react by producing even more sebum to compensate for this additional dryness. This creates a vicious cycle where skin dryness leads to overproduction of sebum, and this overproduction of sebum, in turn, leads to skin problems. This is known as the "rebound effect."

To break this vicious cycle, it's important to find a balance in skincare. It's essential to use gentle, non-drying products, specially formulated for oily or acne-prone skin. Opt for gentle cleansers, lightweight moisturizers, and non-comedogenic products. The goal is to maintain skin hydration while regulating sebum production. Here are some tips for taking care of your skin if you identify with this skin type:

Our Tips for Properly Cleansing Your Skin:

- Use a soap-free and surfactant-free cleansing gel:
Wild pansy, this detox boss for the skin, is at the heart of the formula of this facial cleanser. A soap-free cleansing balm that cleanses the skin deeply without unbalancing or dehydrating it. A specific test has been conducted, known as a corneometer test. It measures the skin's hydration level before the use of the cleansing balm and then repeats the measurement after the use of our gel cleansing balm by a panel of 20 people. This test conducted in the laboratory guarantees that the hydrolipidic film does not undergo disturbances and that the skin's natural hydration is preserved. The secret to returning to balance for your skin. A new start to regain healthy skin.

- Follow with a lotion and avoid water!
Using a skin lotion after cleansing is an essential step in the skincare routine for blemished skin. It helps maintain the balance of skin hydration, prevents acne breakouts, and improves the overall appearance of the skin. Avoid rinsing with water as much as possible. Hard water has a high pH, which can disrupt the natural pH balance of the skin. An imbalanced pH can lead to dry skin, overproduction of sebum, and increased sensitivity, which can sometimes worsen acne and blemish issues. At Beauty Garden the lotion is a clever blend of nettle and peppermint hydrosol, a magical combination for purifying skin with imperfections and rebalancing it. Use it morning and evening after cleansing.

Hydrate Your Skin Properly:

For hydration, we have created a moisturizing cream with wild pansy. You'll recognize the powers of this well-known flower in herbalism for its detoxifying active ingredients, particularly for the skin.

Purify Your Skin:

If your skin produces excess sebum, or if the pores of your skin get clogged, leading to the formation of blackheads or pimples, then it is important to use our organic purifying and soothing mask. By absorbing excess oil, the mask helps to mattify the skin and reduce unwanted shine. Moreover, the green clay will provide deep purifying action. This ingredient helps to dislodge impurities embedded in the pores, leaving the skin clearer and smoother. At the same time, the soothing action of chamomile as well as our flower wax will help calm irritations and inflammations associated with skin imperfections. They will reduce redness and soothe sensations of discomfort. By regularly using a purifying and soothing mask, we can help improve the appearance of the skin, reduce excess sebum, detoxify the pores, and soothe inflammations, for more balanced and healthier-looking skin.

In summary, do not choose products such as abrasive scrubs, harsh cleansers for your skin, and moisturizers that do not have a pH suitable for your skin type. They will immediately give you the sensation of purified skin, but as soon as their action is over, after a few days, sometimes a few hours, then your skin's imbalance will take over again, and your skin will continue to produce excess sebum. Choose purifying, cleansing products and products that have a soothing and balancing action. In the long term, this is the best choice for your skin's health. Beauty Garden skincare routines are also designed to bring your skin back into balance. In order to achieve this balance, it is also necessary to consider dietary rebalancing. Do not hesitate to consult professionals who can offer you advice adapted to your situation, such as naturopaths, dieticians, dermatologists, etc.
