Your skin across 4 axes
Your skin produces more sebum, so shine, enlarged pores and breakouts are more likely. Lightweight, non-pore-clogging products tend to suit you.
Reactions such as stinging, itching and redness appear more easily. It is best to reduce irritation and prioritize soothing and barrier ingredients.
Pigmentation such as melasma and dark spots develops more easily. Sun protection is the foundation, and brightening ingredients may help.
Elasticity tends to decline and wrinkles form more easily. You may consider wrinkle-improving ingredients such as retinol · peptides, starting at low strength.
