> A purifying serum for whom?

Apurifying serumis the true ally of combination to oily skin, oily skin or even oily skin with imperfections. It is a specific facial serum with a formulation of purifying active ingredients that provides numerous benefits to these skin types or to a particular problem such as excess sebum. The use of aoily skin serumis only necessary if you have oily skin. Applying this type of serum to dry skin could damage it and make it more fragile, which is not the intended goal.

>Purifying serum: What is oily skin?

Oily skin is a skin type that is linked to excess sebum production by the sebaceous glands. This abundant sebum secretion gives the skin a shiny, “greasy” appearance that can be unpleasant. The skin is even more prone to the appearance of imperfections because the sebum, produced in large quantities, clogs and obstructs the pores of the skin. This overproduction of sebum will therefore create imperfections that can subsequently cause inflammation.

Oily skin can be oily all over the face, but it is mainly oily on the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin). This is a real problem for people with this skin type because their skin is a breeding ground for spots, whiteheads, blackheads, enlarged pores, and even acne. The skin shines very quickly, and makeup tends to move throughout the day.

However, oily skin has the advantage of being much less fragile than dry or dehydrated skin. Indeed, the sebum produced in large quantities helps protect the hydrolipidic film from drying out and keeps the skin's epidermis hydrated and nourished. This makes the skin more hydrated, supple, and less prone to the signs of aging and the appearance of wrinkles.

It is essential to regulate sebum production, without eliminating it completely, by applying aanti-blemish serum.

Be careful, oily skin can also be sensitive skin. It can also be prone to a lack of water within its hydrolipidic film at certain times of the year, so skin hydration should not be neglected. To do this, it is necessary to use a moisturizer or a hydrating serum occasionally or as a course of treatment.
