Oily skin can be the result of hormonal or seasonal changes, or a reaction to drying soaps and skin treatments. While it seems logical to use drying products to control oil, the results are usually disappointing. Your skin is constantly trying to balance itself, and if oil-producing (sebaceous) glands sense excessive dryness or are shut down by aggressive skin care products, their reaction will be to produce even more oil, resulting in enlarged pores and oily, shiny skin.
Dr.Hauschka Skin Care follows the like-treats-like principle. Rather than battle the skin, our gentle, natural products work with it, guiding it back to a balanced state. The way we cleanse has a lot to do with oil production, and using soap-based cleansers can strip the skin of moisture and cause it to overcompensate by increasing oil production. Dr.Hauschka Cleansing Cream removes excess dirt and oil without stripping the skin of its natural protection. Jojoba and sweet almond oils help to maintain a natural moisture balance and keep skin supple. Follow cleansing with Clarifying Toner to control breakouts, soothe irritation, firm the skin and minimize pore size. A 28-day cycle of Rhythmic Night Conditioner will encourage balance in all skin functions, helping to calm oil production and returning skin to a healthy rhythm. Our daily moisturizer Normalizing Day Oil is a light, clean blend of pure plant oils that nurtures and soothes, sending signals of balance and protection to oily skin. The skin reacts by slowing down oil production, and over time regains its natural balanced, beautiful state.
