SKIN TYPE #3
OILY / COMBINATION / SENSITIVE / CONSISTENT BREAKOUTS
Oily, combination, sensitive skin prone to acne and clogged pores requires a careful blend of antibacterial and smoothing BHAs to deliver maximum blemish-clearing benefits without leaving the skin feeling tight, dry or irritated. Soluble Beta Glucan and natural Witch Hazel offer a calming effect to strengthen the skin from within to prevent future breakouts. The added benefit of oil-free hydration will give the skin a perfect balance.
SYMPTOMS OF SKIN TYPE 3:
- – Enlarged pores and produces oil mostly in t-zone
- – Breaks out from heavy oils or pore-clogging ingredients
- – Skin that may become red and flushes easily, gets tight and irritated by harsh products
- – Consistent blemishes and cysts (several new blemishes a week)
- – Clogged pores and blackheads
- – Post-blemish red/dark scars that linger
- – Wants to keep skin healthy and smooth
- – Concerned about aging
Recommended Treatment
What is mandelic acid?
Mandelic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) derived from bitter almonds, but is more gentle.
Mandelic acid’s antibacterial properties are extremely helpful in treating acne. It also helps to regulate sebum production and in turn decrease the occurrence of breakouts. Mandelic acid has even been shown to benefit those who suffer from cystic acne.
Prolonged use of mandelic acid is safe for your skin, and will have rejuvenating benefits. If you have experienced irritation with other acid treatments, mandelic acid is the best option for you as the side effects are much lower.
