How to take care of my mixed skin?

Combination skin combines several characteristics. It tends to be oily on the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin), while the rest of the face is normal to dry and prone to redness. Combination skin is therefore faced with excessive sebum production on the T-zone. The main manifestation of this imbalance is skin shine. But excess sebum can also lead to the appearance of dilated pores, blackheads and even pimples when certain skin bacteria multiply. Dead cells accumulate, clogging pores and accentuating irregularities, making skin appear duller. Does this sound like you? No wonder: it's the most common skin type! Teenagers and adults alike, men and women, we're all affected by combination skin. 

To care for your combination skin, you need to adopt skincare products adapted to its specific needs. They must succeed in improving skin quality in the T-zone, while guaranteeing comfort for the whole face. To meet these specific needs, our laboratory has specially formulated the  Aquabella® range . For combination skin that's radiant but not shiny, these tailor-made skin care products provide targeted corrective action on oily areas. They also ensure optimal hydration, a universal need for beautiful skin, and one that is particularly accentuated in combination skin. The 3 products in the Aquabella range® range provide a complete skin care routine:

• Don't skip make-up removal

This applies to all skin types, but especially to combination skin, which especially needs cleansing, especially to remove make-up that tends to clog pores. Opt for gentle make-up removers Very Rose with Rose Floral Water: milk, micellar water or oil, there's sure to be a make-up remover just for you!

• Take care of your food

A diet rich in antioxidants helps keep skin in balance. Fresh fruit and vegetables, nuts (walnuts, almonds, pecans, etc.) and seeds (flax, sunflower, pumpkin, etc.), as well as wholegrain cereals, are recommended.

• Boost your daily care

Combination skin can become more sensitive in winter, and the intense cold can aggravate feelings of tightness in the cheeks. You can then use a creamier-textured skincare product to nourish your skin and restore the comfort it needs, especially in the evening. Another option for skin lacking in nutrition and moisture: mix a spritz ofHuile Prodigieuse® with your Moisturizing Emulsion Beauty Revealing Emulsion in the palm of your hand.

• Go for light make-up

When it comes to make-up*, opt for powder foundations rather than over-covering liquid versions. Powder also provides additional mattifying action. Our additional tip: remember to clean your make-up accessories thoroughly with soap or shampoo once a week.

For an effective beauty routine for combination skin, it's essential to use products specifically designed to meet the needs of combination skin. Day after day, the 3 Aquabella® range range will give you refined skin texture and fresh, radiant skin.
