This way you give the natural protective mechanism the opportunity to function properly and keep your skin in balance.

Cleansing for sensitive or dry skin

Extra tip for the skincare routine for extremely dry skin: cleanse your face with a oil cleanser for the face. Our facial oils are all perfectly suitable for the oil cleansing method. We recommend our organic Argan oil especially for dry skin. Is your skin dry and sensitive? Do not clean it in the morning with a cleanser, but at most use a toner in the form of our facial spray. These can simultaneously reinforce the goals of your skincare routine steps. Such as rose water facial spray for sensitive skin and as an effective remedy against Red cheeks.

A facial mask or a peeling are both exfoliating products that you can use in your skincare steps to remove dead skin cells. We have different types of natural facial masks and peels, each with their own superpowers. That's how we are BHA serum peeling with salicylic acid effective in treating blemishes. The added fruit acids (AHA) in this serum make it an ideal product remove wrinkles naturally. Both facial masks and peelings have the added advantage that the ingredients of other products are absorbed faster and deeper by the skin.

When it is better to omit these products from your skincare steps:
We do not recommend the simultaneous use of a natural facial mask and peeling in a skincare routine. This quickly becomes 'too much' for the skin. Also skip this step if your skin is in an acute phase of sensitivity, such as an outbreak clown eczema. For perioral dermatitis you choose it best remedy for eczema. In this case: less is more!

A moisturizing facial spray rebalances the pH value of your skin after using a cleanser. Our facial mists are rich in antioxidants and bioactive substances. They also improve the moisture balance and skin texture of your skin, especially if you use them in this step of your skincare routine.

We have three types of natural facial sprays in our range, suitable for every skin type or function. For example, rose water spray is very effective as natural remedy for rosacea and we recommend lavender water for acne.

A serum face that meets the wishes and needs of your skin will quickly produce an effect. For normal skin, this is not a 'must' in your skincare routine, but a serum can certainly have added value for certain beauty goals. For example, consider Flow RetinLift retinol serum anti-aging product when you wonder which really helps against wrinkles.

6. Cream with intensively nourishing ingredients

After possibly using a serum, this is the time to add a facial cream to your skincare routine. You can do this, for example, with a moisture cream full of antioxidants, vitamins and fatty acids. In addition to nutrition, it protects your skin against dehydration and the harmful effects of oxidative stress.
