Your Skin
The skin’s job is to protect the body from damage from the outside world. Without it you would be unprotected against bacteria, harmful substances and dehydration—so let’s make sure we take care of it!
There's a reason why they say the face is a mirror on the soul – if you’re happy and feeling great your rosy, glowing skin tells the world. Healthy skin is your ticket to youthful skin. Healthy skin is the start of beauty and the skin’s beauty starts on the inside.
Different Types
Knowing your skin type is important when using not only my products, but any products because you need to choose your skincare on the basis of your skin’s needs. Beauty products are usually categorized on the basis of the following skin types:
-
Normal skin
If you have normal skin, you’re one of the lucky ones. You rarely or never have problems with impure skin or dry sections and most of the time your skin feels soft and well-balanced. But even if you do have normal skin, it can become drier or greasier due to stress, diet, hormonal changes or the time of year.
Like all other skin types, normal skin needs moisture, nutrition and care. These products are good for people with normal skin:
Day Cream, Moisturizing Day Cream, Rich Night Cream, Facial Peeling, Herbal Mask, Cleansing Lotion, Facial Tonic, DNA Repair & Protect Face Cream, Eye Focus Anti Puffiness Multi Lift, Body Oil, Body Lotion, Instant Repair, Shower Cream, Deodorant, Perfume Lotion
-
Oily skin
Oily skin quickly gets shiny and is prone to impurities. Oily skin is caused by an overproduction of sebum by the sebaceous glands. Acne and blackheads can easily arise when the sebaceous glands become blocked by grease and dead skin cells.
However, oily skin types have an advantage—their skin ages “better” than the other skin types. The oil protects the skin, which means that it ages more slowly and remains smooth for longer.
Oily skin actually needs moisturizing products to balance out sebum production. A gentle scrub treatment can also be a good idea. These products are good for people with oily skin:
Moisturizing Day Cream, Day Cream, Facial Peeling, Herbal Mask, Cleansing Lotion, Facial Tonic, DNA Repair & Protect Face Cream, Body Lotion, Instant Repair, Shower Cream, Deodorant, Herbal Mask, Perfume Lotion
-
Dry skin
Over the years, the skin gets drier as the body produces less sebum and it is harder for the skin to retain its moisture. If you already have dry skin, you can have problems with itching and flaking. Dry skin is mainly due to the water content of the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of the epidermis, being too low. The sebaceous glands are not producing enough sebum, one of the reasons why dry skin easily becomes wrinkled.
If you have dry skin, you need to compensate for the lack of moisture with a good day cream, as well as a rich night cream to actively repair the skin while you sleep.

-
Combination skin
This is the most common skin type and can be seen as a combination of oily and dry/normal skin. Often the skin on the cheeks is dry or normal while the “T zone” (forehead, nose and chin) is more oily. The pores are normal-sized or large and some areas may have impurities.
If you have combination skin, you need to balance out the oily and dry sections. Don’t use strong products, which might irritate your dry skin or increase sebum production in the oily areas. These products are good for people with combination skin:
Moisturizing Day Cream, Day Cream, Facial Peeling, Herbal Mask, Cleansing Lotion, Facial Tonic, DNA Protect & Repair Face Cream, Body Lotion, Perfume Lotion, Instant Repair, Shower Cream, Deodorant
-
Sensitive skin
Sensitive skin is easily irritated, with surface and enlarged blood vessels that can cause redness. This skin type is often fine and slightly transparent and is very sensitive to heat and cold, dry climates and cold air and sun. If you have sensitive skin, you will often have a reaction to perfumed products and shaving.
My products have been specially developed for sensitive skin. They are gentle so you can use any of the following:
Rich Night Cream, Cleansing Lotion, Facial Tonic, Perfume Lotion, Body Lotion, DNA Repair & Protect Face Cream, Facial Peeling, Instant Repair, Body Oil, Shower Cream, Deodorant
-
Mature skin
Even if you are biologically not older, your skin may have become prematurely aged by the sun and environmental pollution. Mature or aging skin starts to loose its resilience and elasticity. Sometimes it can feel rough and dry with uneven pigmentation. Wrinkles and lines become more visible.
If you have mature skin, it’s a good idea to use products containing antioxidants and ingredients that stimulate collagen. This helps the skin to repair itself and slows further aging. Products containing fruit acids that have an exfoliating effect are perfect for you.
