What should I pay attention to when purchasing a Face Cream?
To choose the right Face Cream, it is important to know what Skin Type you have.
When you have thoroughly cleaned your Face and waited for 10 minutes, we recommend taking a tissue and pressing it tightly against your forehead. If the paper stays clean and is not greasy, you have normal skin. You have small pores and firm skin with sufficient elasticity.
Are there greasy spots on the cloth and do your cheeks and Nose have a mild shine? Then your skin is oily. If nothing happens to the paper, but your skin feels tight and sensitive and flakes are visible, then your skin is too dry. Of course, you may not recognize yourself in the above skin types. It could also be that you have aging skin and are looking for a suitable Face Cream for it. In our webshop, you can read per product which cream suits your Skin Type.
