Understanding Your Skin Type

Oily Skin

Oily skin is characterised by an excess of sebum produced by the sebaceous glands. While sebum is important for protecting the skin, an overproduction can lead to a shiny complexion and clogged pores. The key is to maintain the skin's moisture while keeping excess sebum under control.

  • Cleansing: Begin the day with a gentle cleanser, such as our Gel Cleanser with Cotton Oil and Red Vine Extract, to wash away overnight sweat and oils. Opt for essential formulas, with carefully chosen and clearly declared ingredients, to maintain the skin's natural balance.
  • Toning: Choose a toner that helps keep excess oil under control without stripping essential moisture. Witch hazel or tea tree oil-infused toners can offer a refreshing touch.
  • Hydration: Despite being oil-rich, oily skin still requires hydration. A lightweight hyaluronic acid moisturizer helps keep it hydrated; among Breala's offerings, the Sebum-Regulating Moisturizing Cream for Oily Skin is designed especially for oily skin. Hyaluronic acid is known for its ability to retain moisture and helps skin look plumper.
  • Targeted Serum: Consider a clean beauty anti-aging serum that helps pores look less visible and skin texture look smoother. Breala's formulations nourish the skin and help enhance its overall appearance.

Dry Skin

Dry skin often feels tight, lacks moisture, and can sometimes show slight flakiness. A carefully curated routine helps protect it from everyday external aggressors, leaving it soft to the touch.

  • Gentle Cleansing: Begin with a cream-based cleanser that helps preserve your skin’s natural oils.
  • Nourishing Moisturization: Choose a hyaluronic acid moisturizer, such as our Plumping Moisturizing Cream for Dry Skin, which helps keep the skin hydrated. For those exploring clean beauty options, incorporating cottonseed oil, as discussed in Remedies for Dry Skin: Integrating Cottonseed Oil Simplistically, is a refined and gentle choice. This ingredient is appreciated because it nourishes the skin and, thanks to its emollient qualities, helps it retain moisture.
  • Barrier Support: Breala’s offerings for dry skin are comforting formulas with cottonseed oil, rich in vitamin E, an antioxidant, which helps the skin retain moisture and leaves it feeling smoother and comfortable.
  • Night Care: Consider night creams rich in oils and humectants, so you wake up to soft, comfortable skin.

Crafting a Clean Beauty Routine

The Role of Clean Beauty

Embracing a clean beauty routine involves selecting products with essential formulas, with carefully chosen and clearly declared ingredients, that focus on integrity and transparency. Clean beauty is a way of caring for the skin through thoughtfully selected ingredients.

Tips for Both Skin Types

  • Sunscreen is Non-Negotiable: Regardless of skin type, applying sunscreen every day helps protect the skin from UV rays, which contribute to premature aging.
  • Diet and Hydration: Drinking adequate water and maintaining a balanced diet reflects positively on your skin’s appearance.
  • Routine Consistency: Consistency is key in any skincare routine. Allow ingredients time to show their benefits.
