COMBINATION SKIN -WHAT TO USE

We like to tell you how people we know are using the products. Cindy, down in Florida, has bouts of breaking out, some spots of rosacea, and, basically, problem skin.  Her skin is reacting extremely well to Borage Leaf Cleanser, Sage and Citrus Moisturizer (non-oily) and our Advanced SPF 30, which is also non-oily.  Let's face it, living in Florida is tough on anyone's skin.  (Borage Leaf Cleanser is highly effective for combination skin. Borage leaf extract cools and soothes the skin and minimizes external inflammation and swelling.  The blend of botanical extracts of chamomile, cucumber and aloe vera calm and soothe, also, while vitamin E and cocoa butter pamper dehydrated and irritated skin. It has the faint odor of ginger and lavender.) People with oily skin often need moisturizer and Sage and Citrus Moisturizer is very light and non-oily.

Courtney, on the other hand, lives in New York City proper, walking the streets and riding the  trains daily.  Her face takes a beating and she breaks out.   She finds Dermaclenz Liquid Cleanser works best for her right now  along with Papaya Creme Enzyme Polish (light exfoliator), which she uses three or four times a week. (Dermaclenz thoroughly cleanses and removes excessive oil, environmental impurities and makeup.)  It includes a blend of meadowsweet extract , lactic acid and honey which provide excellent moisturization while increasing skin surface renewal. Lemon and rosemary extracts stimulate and tone. You'll love the fragrance of orange, geranium and eucalyptus.

She said that this routine along with Restorative Marine Moisturizer is working well . You might remember from an earlier post, Courtney was thrilled with Restorative Moisturizer because her dorm room was so dry.  She just added Glycolic Gel Renewal to her routine, which will act as a barrier to  protect her skin from the dirty air and environmental stresses of big city living and help control breakouts even more.

You will find a description of each of these products under its specific category on the right side of my blog.
