Dry Skin

This is someone who feels like their skin needs moisture all year and drinks up all the moisture it can find. You can tolerate heavy moisturiser and you’re not worried about clogged pores or breaking out. You want to achieve a moist, dewy environment on the skin to keep it supple and glowing.

MAY HAVE ENLARGED PORES

You also might have enlarged pores in the T-zone and get blackheads. Typically, as the skin ages, your pores actually do get larger, which may cause blackheads to become more noticeable. The Dry Skin routine addresses this by focusing on actively shrinking your pores.

  • Skin feels tight and dry year round
  • Needs hydration and nourishment
  • May have enlarged pores mostly in t-zone, including blackheads
  • Wants to keep skin healthy and smooth
  • Concerned about ageing
  • Concerned about firmness & lack of tone
  • May have hyperpigmentation (brown spots)

    type A  - TIRED / AGEING

    Dry, ageing, tired-looking skin in need of sun-damage repair requires high concentrations of AHAs to boost cellular turnover and firming Peptides to allow a tightening deep within the skin. Energising ingredients like Rosemary, Ginseng and centella Extract work to increase oxygenation and encourage a healthy glow. Your skin will be moist, firmer-looking and exceptionally smooth with a newly refined radiance. 

    SKIN MAY LOOK TIRED

    No one wants their skin to look tired and everyone wants it to look dewy and glowy.

    This is typically somebody that doesn’t get red or pink easily. You’re somebody who feels like your skin is more on the yellow side.

    The Skin Type A regimen is about boosting circulation and oxygen to the skin, and while all skin types need that, we want to actually create a little pinkness to the skin in this instance because it’s not circulating as well.

    LOSS OF TONE AND ELASTICITY

    Your skin might have a slight sag, droop, or loose look to it and you want your skin to look tighter and firmer.

    WANTS HEALTHY AND SMOOTH SKIN, CONCERNED ABOUT AGEING

    All skin types want to look healthy, smooth, and younger, but this is your main focus. You’re not someone who’s focused on breakouts, sensitivity, or redness in the skin. You want a comprehensive anti-ageing routine to keep your skin healthy and free of visible wrinkles.

    type B - SUN DAMAGED / AGEING

    Dry, sun-damaged skin with loss of tone requires high concentrations of repairing AHAs to boost cellular turnover, bioactive Peptides to allow a tightening deep within the skin and nourishing lipid-rich oils to provide needed moisture. Your skin will be exceptionally smooth and supple with less visible wrinkles.

    SYMPTOMS OF SKIN TYPE B:

    • MAY HAVE HYPERPIGMENTATION

      You may have hyperpigmentation, freckles, brown spots, or melasma, and these spots may have gotten larger or darker with age. You can still be a Skin Type B if you don’t, but it’s not uncommon for people with these conditions to fit into this skin type.

      HISTORY OF EXCESSIVE SUN EXPOSURE

      Coming back to the sun damage issue, in this skin type we are really focused on those that have a lot of sun damage, more than other people. If you’re noticing that your skin is more crepey with noticeable damage and sunspots, then you might be a Skin Type 8.

      BROKEN CAPILLARIES

      Something else that is common with this skin type is visible, broken capillaries. Any skin type can have this issue, but if you have had a lot of sun exposure you may have broken capillaries that extend out onto your cheeks, which is an indicator for Skin Type 8. You may not necessarily get red easily, the broken capillaries may just always be there.

      Some of the other skin types address redness and flushing, but that isn’t what we’re talking about in this case. We are talking about visible capillaries that are becoming more prominent and are more like broken capillaries from sun exposure.

    This is somebody that may have been diagnosed with rosacea Your skin gets red often, flushes easily, or feels warm to the touch and people may comment that you look sunburned when you aren’t. If redness is a concern for you, you might be a Skin Type C

    You’re focused on preventing visible ageing and putting moisture on the skin and keeping the redness at bay.

    Dry, red, sensitive skin with visible lines and wrinkles requires a high concentration of barrier-repair, lipid-rich natural oils and comforting botanicals to soothe and strengthen the skin from inside out. White Tea, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (the no-sting form of Vitamin C) and bioactive Peptides provide comforting anti-aging nourishment to reveal smooth and calm skin with less visible redness. 

    SYMPTOMS OF SKIN TYPE C:

    CONSISTENT REDNESS/ROSACEA

    This is somebody that may have been diagnosed with rosacea by your physician. Or maybe you haven’t, but your skin gets red often, flushes easily, or feels warm to the touch and people may comment that you look sunburned when you aren’t. If redness is a concern for you, you might be a Skin Type 9.
    You could also fit into this category if you only have some redness but you find that your skin is still red 30 minutes or longer after a hot shower. You may not feel like you have rosacea, but if it is a concern, you have fair skin, and redness runs in the family, this could still be you

    You have to be careful about which products you use because certain ingredients can make your skin irritable or cause rashes.
