What Is It?
Acne is a common skin condition that causes spots, blackheads, whiteheads and oily skin and sometimes skin that's hot or painful to touch.
What Is It Caused By?
Acne occurs when hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. Causes of acne can include changes in hormones, stress, excess sebum production and genetics.
How Can I Treat It?
Both teen and adult acne can be treated effectively with a skincare regimen packed with high-performance anti-bacterial, hydrating and soothing ingredient science.
What Is It?
Fine lines are small, shallow lines that usually first appear around the eyes and mouth and develop into deeper wrinkles with age as the skin’s structure weakens.
What Is It Caused By?
As we age, skin gets thinner, drier and less elastic, leading to fine lines and wrinkles. Environmental factors such as stress, UV, smoking and pollution can also play a part.
How Can I Treat It?
Choose powerful anti-aging formulations enriched with ingredients that help strengthen the skin barrier, boost elasticity and supercharge the skin’s repair mechanisms.
What Is It?
Rosacea is a chronic and inflammatory skin condition that occurs mostly on the face and is characterized by facial redness, visible blood vessels, patches and thickening of the skin.
What Is It Caused By?
Genetic factors, immune system disorders, and environmental factors may play a role; in addition, factors such as alcohol, spicy foods, stress, and sunlight can be triggers.
How Can I Treat It?
Gentle skin care with non-irritating ingredients and using a sunscreen with a SPF of at least 30 can help control rosacea. A healthy lifestyle can also help mitigate or completely prevent flare-ups.
What Is It?
Hyperpigmentation causes patches of skin to become darker than the surrounding skin. Types of hyperpigmentation include age spots, melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
What Is It Caused By?
It occurs when the skin produces excess melanin, the pigment that gives skin its color and can affect any skin type, though it’s more likely during pregnancy, or as you age.
How Can I Treat It?
Brighten dark spots with targeted ingredient science including Vitamin C to help neutralise discoloration and prevent further hyperpigmentation by using an SPF moisturiser.
What Is It?
Teen acne is a common skin condition marked by clogged pores, whiteheads, blackheads and sometimes, hard, deep lumps that can be painful to touch.
What Is It Caused By?
Hormonal changes from the onset of puberty, stress and genetics can lead to inflammation of the skin barrier and perioral dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis and, particularly in younger skin, blemishes, blackheads and pimples.
How Can I Treat It?
Both teen and adult acne can be treated effectively with a skincare regimen packed with high-performance anti-bacterial, hydrating and soothing ingredient science
What Is It?
Pores are tiny openings in the surface of the skin that release sebum and sweat from your glands. Enlarged pores are more visible to the naked eye and can sometimes look like small holes.
What Is It Caused By?
The main causes are excess sebum production, which makes skin oilier and pores more visible, and decreased skin elasticity, which occurs with aging and sun damage.
How Can I Treat It?
Choose clarifying products containing ingredients that help regulate sebum production, exfoliate the skin and counteract skin aging and use a clay mask every week.
What Is It?
Cellulite is a common condition that affects 90% of women and results in the appearance of dimple-like tissue, usually on the thighs, hips, buttocks and abdomen.
What Is It Caused By
Cellulite occurs when the skin that lies over certain areas of fat is pushed down into the deeper tissue, creating an uneven surface texture.
How Can I Treat It?
There is no quick fix, but treatments that stimulate the body's lymphatic system can help. Also helpful are topical products that stimulate collagen and tighten the skin's structure.
What Is It?
Stretch marks look like lines or streaks across the skin and can be pink, red, brown, black, silver or purple. Over time they can become whitish and scar-like in appearance.
What Is It Caused By?
Stretch marks occur when your skin rapidly stretches or shrinks and are common during weight fluctuations, especially during puberty and pregnancy.
How Can I Treat It?
Choose body creams containing ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid and Peptides which have a protective effect against elastin degradation and stimulate skin repair and elasticity.
What Is It?
Sensitive skin can appear in the form of patches of redness, itching, stinging and eczema. It can also be a symptom of an underlying condition such as perioral dermatitis or dry skin.
What Is It Caused By?
It is commonly caused by local reactions to chemicals, dyes, and fragrances present in skincare, clothing or make-up. It also stems from other skincare concerns such as eczema.
How Can I Treat It?
Use healing, anti-inflammatory and biomimetic ingredients which hydrate, respect and strengthen the skin barrier and microbiome and optimally support sensitive skin.
