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.

If you are looking for a product to help minimize pores, I would recommend the Temporary Lifting Mask. This mask is formulated with Egg Albumin to naturally help firm and minimize large pores to improve the overall appearance of the skin. Use it 2-3 times a week for 5-7 minutes for effective results. Consistent use will provide a quick boost and a flawless finish.

Hi. I would like to check what products I should use if I have sensitive and oily skin. I see that the product like your Cucumber Lotion has alcohol content in it which is not suitable for my sensitive red skin. Please advise on any other suitable alternatives/substitutes. Thanks! ...Read Response

For oily, sensitive skin, I would recommend using a mild regimen to gently clean skin while it controls excess oil output. First, I would use the Enzyme Cleansing Gel twice daily. This non-foaming, gel cleanser thoroughly removes daily make-up, dirt and oil without drying the skin. Papaya Extracts are exfoliating Alpha Hydroxy Acids that helps prevent dulling build-up that can cause blackheads and pimples. Follow with the Seaweed Cleansing Lotion. This is a non-drying, alcohol-free toner that cleans and disinfects dry and sensitive skin. Mild Witch Hazel formula removes pore clogging debris while Aloe Extract soothes sensitive areas. Use the Control Moisturizer For Oily Skin daily. This oil-free moisturizer will soften and soothe oily, sensitive skin. Balsam Peru based moisturizer absorbs quickly and reduces redness upon application. Prevent pores from clogging by using the Flower & Tonic Mask 1-2 times a week on the t-zone. This is a combination purifying and calming mask for congested, bumpy or slightly oily skin types. The Kaolin based formula absorbs dirt and oil from pores while the soothing, botanical Balsam Peru ingredient soothes minor redness and irritation.

I’m wondering if you have a product that would help a cluster of under-the-skin bumps (they have not broken the surface yet, but are constantly there, like a pimple that never goes away). I tried a sample of the Drying Cream, and it helped somewhat but they never fully disappeared. I saw an e-mail for Silver Powder, and I was wondering if that would help. Please let me know your thoughts. ...Read Response

Since you are experiencing deep cystic blemishes, I would recommend our Buffering Lotion as the best spot treatment. It will help to bring down the inflammation and heal the blemish. I would also recommend that you use a complete skin care regimen to help maintain healthy skin and to prevent breakouts. To help prevent the build-up of dead skin, washing twice daily with Enzyme Cleansing Gel will maintain the skins moisture as well as gently cleanse. Using the Special Cucumber Lotion after cleansing will disinfect the skin and prevent future breakouts. Applying the Oil Free Moisturizer (SPF-17) daily will hydrate and moisturize your skin while adding a daily sun protection. To control breakouts our Drying Mask will reduce surface oiliness while drying up acne prone or acne affected areas. The Healing & Soothing Mask will calm and soothe acne related redness and irritation while promoting the healing of blemishes.

Being your skin is oily in some areas and dry in others, you have combination skin, the most common skin type. Because each area has its own needs, combination skin is the most difficult to care for properly and requires the proper selection of skin care products. We recommend a regimen using our Seaweed Cleansing Soap containing small grains of seaweed to gently exfoliate the skin while cleansing. Followed by the Seaweed Cleansing Lotion, a mild astringent to disinfect and soothe skin while removing pore clogging dirt and oil. To help retain your skins natural moisture, use our Ceramide Herbal Eye Cream which will reduce the look of dry, tired eyes. Apply the Oil Free Moisturizer (SPF-17) during the day to help hydrate your skin while adding daily sun protection, then at night using the A.H.A. & Ceramide Moisturizer will rejuvenate dull, congested skin. Two to three times a week the Flower & Tonic Mask will deep clean your skin while lifting dirt and impurities that cause blackheads and breakouts. The Drying Cream, a spot treatment with light concealing qualities, can be used daily to dry and heal pimples that are inflamed and infected. Our famous Drying Lotion, which contains Salicylic Acid and Calamine to help heal and soothe eruptions, is an excellent spot treatment for those stubborn surface whiteheads.
