If you have oily skin with hyper-pigmentation, the first thing I would recommend using is the Oil Free Moisturizer (SPF-17) to protect the skin from further discoloration. Use the Botanical Facial Gel twice daily to cleanse skin and control oil. I would also suggest the Glycolic Foaming Cleanser to deep clean and exfoliate surface dead skin to even out discoloration. Lastly, the Whitening Mask may be used 2-3 times a week for 5-7 minutes to help brighen and even out skin tone. With regular and consistent use, your skin should feel less oily and in time more even toned, especially on your forehead.

I am new to Mario Badescu. I have started using the Botanical Facial Gel, Cucumber Cleansing Lotion, Flower and Tonic Mask, and the Oil-Free Moisturizer. I have combo skin and very large pores. Is it possible to reduce the size of pores? How do you do it and what products would you suggest?...Read Response

It sounds like you are already using the best products for combination/oily skin from our skin care line. Although, there is no way to permanently reduce the size of large pores, I can recommend the following products to help minimize the appearance of large pores. Use the Temporary Lifting Mask 2-3 times a week for 5-7 minutes to help tighten pores and give the skin a more refined, flawless look. Formulated with egg albumin reveals a tighter pore and firmer, refreshed skin. Also contains soothing Calamine so this mask is ideal for any skin type looking for a quick boost for that special occasion. Then use the Glycolic Foaming Cleanser 2-3 times a week at night instead of the Botanical Facial Gel. It will deep clean and remove dead skin build-up by improving overall texture as it minimizes the appearance of larger pores.

I am 30 years old and have very oily skin. I use oil-free products and after an hour or two at work my face is oily all over. My skin is prone to breakouts at times. Could you please let me know what products of yours may work; as in a cleanser, toner, moisturizer, mask, and etc.?...Read Response

Our customized regimens consist of specific products meant to help your various skin concerns. Being that you have oily skin, it is important to select a regimen that will help to control excess oil while it prevents breakouts. The Botanical Facial Gel is deep cleansing and refreshing for oily skin. Alpha-Hydroxy based formula help prevent build-up that can cause blackheads and pimples. Oily skin will be refreshed and deeply cleansed with the Cucumber Cleansing Lotion containing 4% Alcohol and soothing Cucumber Extract. It removes pore clogging residue and disinfects skins surface for thoroughly clean skin. Follow with the Control Moisturizer For Oily Skin to keep skin well hydrated and soothed. Contains Balsam Peru to help calm skin and reduce redness. If your skin is constantly oily and shining all day, you should use a clay based mask such as the Special Mask For Oily Skin to absorb and control excess oil output. For dull, congested skin, use the Glycolic Foaming Cleanser 2-3 times a week instead of the Botanical Facial Gel. Glycolic Acid helps to break down dead skin build-up from skins surface, reduce minor discoloration and leave skin radiant and smooth. The Drying Lotion is the perfect overnight spot treatment for surfaced whiteheads.
