How do I care for combination skin?

By Maleen L.

💡 Did you know that combination skin is the most common skin type, especially among women?

Approximately 40-50% of the population has combination skin, which in most cases means an oily T-zone and dry cheeks. Therefore, it's especially important for combination skin to combine different products to meet the needs of both skin types.

We'll tell you what combination skin actually is and how to care for it properly.

🕵🏽 What does "combination skin" actually mean?

😯 And how do you care for combination skin?

💡 We recommend this routine for combination skin

Double cleansing meets both skin needs of combination skin: By combining an oil-based and a water-based phase, the skin is cleansed particularly thoroughly, yet gently at the same time .

☀️ Depending on the season and your skin condition, you can double cleanse both in the morning and at night . For drier skin, simply washing your face with water in the morning may be sufficient.

🤫 You should combine different active ingredients!

The second step in your routine is the serum. You should combine several to treat different skin concerns:

 

💦 Hyaluronic acid binds up to 1,000 times its weight in water and thus intensively moisturizes the skin (study Bravo et al. 2022).

 

🌱 Bakuchiol has strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and, as a natural alternative to retinol, actively stimulates cell renewal (study Bluemke et al. 2022).

 

🌟 Niacinamide regulates sebum, balances and strengthens the natural skin barrier (study Marques et al. 2024).

 

For example, you could always apply niacinamide in the morning and alternate between hyaluronic acid or bakuchiol in the evening.

🥵 Sun protection for the skin barrier?!

A study from Stanford University showed that UV light can not only promote cell damage and premature skin aging, but also makes the skin thinner and weakens the skin barrier (Biniek et al. 2012).

 

🚨 A weakened skin barrier leads to transepidermal moisture loss because the skin barrier can no longer retain moisture as effectively. The result is dryness wrinkles .

That's why you should apply sunscreen as the last step every morning .

💕 An extra dose of love for your skin barrier!

The outermost layer of the skin barrier, in particular, consists largely of ceramides , a class of lipids. They prevent transepidermal water loss and keep the skin hydrated and supple. However, natural ceramide levels decrease with age.

🧬 A Japanese study found that skincare products containing ceramides can compensate for this waste and thus effectively strengthen the skin barrier (Kono et al. 2021).

🌙 Our Barrier Repair Moisturizer contains ceramides, shea butter, and probiotics, which soften the skin and support the skin's microbiome. This makes it an excellent night cream .
