About Skincare:

Sometimes it’s hard to chose the right skincare products, but much of it depends on the type of skin and the issues (if there are any) your are trying to correct.
The five most common skin types are: Sensitive, Normal, Oily or Aging Skin.
Identify the type of skin, to then find a product to work with it. We divide our website by type of skin as well as type of product!

Discover your Skin Type:
Wash your face with a Natural Cleanser and wait about an hour. After an hour look at your skin and try to notice if it is flakey, Shiny or  if you feel it tight. Grab some clean tissue and pad your neck, nose, chin and eye area.

You have Oily Skin if:
There is oily residue on the tissue. If the oily residue is only on the T- Zones , you may have a combination of two types

You have Aging Skin if:
There are visible wrinkles, fine lines or dry skin.  Normally no Oily Residue is found on the tissue.

You Have Dry Skin if:
A tight feeling with no oil or visible flakes on the face indicate a dry condition.

You have Normal Skin if:
No oily or flakey residue is found on the tissue or on the face.

You have Sensitive Skin if:
Well,  Sensitive Skin is not always visible but it is often delicate, can easily sunburn and prone to react to chemicals or ingredients.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT SKINCARE PRODUCT FOR YOU
Choosing the right skincare product can be hard or tricky. First of all identify your skin type by padding it (see Discover your Skin type TAB), then find the products that are specifically made to treat any problem associated with that skin type or problem.  All skin types follow a different regimen depending on type.
