How to choose the right skin cream?
We acknowledge that our offer is really wide and many times it might be very difficult to choose the right and especially the most suitable cream for your skin. So let's clarify it a little.
It is important to realize what skin type we have and also to take our age into the account.
Normal skin – this is healthy skin with smooth and small pores
It has a balanced oil and moisture content and skin irritation is only rare. It is stable throughout the year and shows almost no changes due to the external environment. However, due to a polluted environment, unhealthy food and excessive stress, only a few people have normal skin. Care for this skin type is simple but necessary. Reach for a moisturizer during a warmer period and a more nutritious cream for the colder times.
Oily skin – wide pores that constantly clog and create inflammation
The surface of the skin is greasy and shiny. Such skin requires regular and thorough care. Reach for hydration, matting creams and creams that regulate sebum production and soothe the skin.
Dry skin – has small pores, looks dull and has a reduced fat content
It responds to a lack of moisture and vitamins. Deep mimic wrinkles, redness or scales appear often. In this case, choose thick, greasy creams that will nourish it and balance the natural moisturizing factor.
Combination skin – dry cheeks and oily T-zone
Ideally, you should look for a cream that is strictly designed for combination skin. Those are usually soothing, moisturizing and matting creams.
Every age has its own needs for hydration, nutrition, protection or lubrication:
up to 25 years – light moisturizer or moisturizing emulsion – use in the morning and in the evening.
25 – 35 years – quality day moisturizer for summer, nourishing cream for winter, add an eye cream and use serums or essences with hyaluronic acid and vitamins at night. Use SPF 50 daily.
35 – 45 years – bet on multifunctional products with hyaluronic acid, collagen, coenzyme Q10, vitamins, and peptides. Complement with eye cream, masks, serums, facial massage. Use SPF 50 daily.
45+ years – anti-wrinkle creams, with peptides, antioxidants, collagen, vitamins. Beneath the cream, it is recommended to use serums or essences, either during the day or during the night. Supplement with masks, nourishing treatments, machine treatments. Don't forget SPF 50.
