Skincare FAQs
1. How do I determine my skin type?
Skin types are generally categorized as dry, oily, combination, sensitive, or normal. To determine yours, observe how your skin feels throughout the day:
o Dry Skin – Feels tight, rough, and flaky. Best suited for Olive Squalane Cream.
o Oily Skin – Feels greasy and prone to breakouts. Best suited for Tea Tree Gel and Niacinamide Lotion.
o Combination Skin – Oily in some areas, dry in others. Try Rosehip Cream.
o Sensitive Skin – Reacts easily to products and environmental factors. Use Kukui Nut Serum and Macro Hyaluronic Gel.
o Normal Skin – Balanced and problem-free. Maintain it with Avocado Serum and Pomegranate Serum.
2. How often should I cleanse my face?
We recommend cleansing twice a day—morning and evening—with a gentle, plant-based cleanser like our Sunflower Face Cleanser for hydration or Almond Face Cleanser for mature skin.
3. What is the ideal skincare routine?
A plant-based skincare routine includes:
o Cleansing – Remove dirt with Sunflower Face Cleanser or Almond Face Cleanser.
o Toning – Refresh with Micro Hyaluronic Spray.
o Moisturizing – Hydrate with Rosehip Cream or Niacinamide Lotion.
o Sun Protection – Apply Neroli Sunscreen Gel.

Use Tea Tree Gel to purify and calm inflamed skin. Its natural antibacterial properties help prevent breakouts without irritating the skin.

Dry skin lacks moisture and requires deep hydration. Our Olive Squalane Cream, Macro Hyaluronic Gel, and Macadamia Nut Oil help restore moisture without synthetic fillers.
8. How do I reduce dark spots and pigmentation?
Apply Pomegranate Serum, Licorice Gel, & Niacinamide lotion, which contain plant-based brightening ingredients that even out skin tone naturally. Kesar Aloe vera gel can give that additional glow as final touch up to the skin.

Oily skin benefits from Tea Tree Gel, Niacinamide Lotion, and lightweight serums like Avocado Serum that hydrate without clogging pores. Oily skin is a natural process, but natural products help manage it.
