EXPERT TIPS AND TRICKS

We love double-masking! This means combining two masks together that have each have different effects. You can do this by simply applying one after the other onto your whole face to maximise results. To start, we recommend applying our COCO WOW French Pink Clay Mask that absorbs excess sebum, and follow with our ROSE REFINE Charcoal & Clay Clarifying Face Mask that deeply clarifies the pores and helps to achieve refined and soft skin. You can then follow with a face toner like our ROSE BREEZE Balancing Toner and a moisturising product like our ROSE VELVET Balancing Day & Night Face Fluid.

DID YOU KNOW?

Combination to oily skin often has enlarged pores and impurities. Dead skin flakes or dirt can clog the pores. The result: the sebum cannot flow off unhindered, it accumulates and closed or open blackheads (comedones) form. Open blackheads, which can turn dark on the surface of the skin, can be recognised as small black spots on the forehead, nose and chin. If the affected area is inflamed by bacteria, pimples can develop.
The ingredient niacinamide shows incredible properties that are very beneficial for combination to oily skin. Niacinamide can regulate excess sebum production, can reduce the size of pores and improves impure skin and breakouts.^[1-3] Furthermore, it fights irregularities like hyperpigmentation, acne scars, uneven texture and skin tone.^[4,5] Thus it helps to improve the overall appearance of the skin.
For the ROSE REFINE Charcoal & Clay Clarifying Face Mask we have chosen a concentration of 1% niacinamide – the combination with 1% zinc gluconate, rose extracts and clays rebalances irregularities, soothes the skin and helps to achieve a refined complexion.
