Understanding Your Skin Type

The skin is the largest human organ and everyone’s skin is unique so we need to be mindful of what we put on our skin. Understanding your skin type is very important so that you know which products are suitable and because what works for someone else may not give you the desired result.

Find out what type of skin you have and which of our products are best for you.

Normal skin
Your skin is soft, smooth, not oily, not dry and you rarely have spots.
Recommended for you:
ALL our products are suitable for you, especially Miracle Set & Purity Mask for when you need a restoration of your natural glow.

Oily skin
You have large pores and notice your skin looks oily and shiny all day no matter how many times you wash it. You break out a lot more than others and blackheads/acne are common.
Recommended for you:
Onyx Polish – controls breakouts & oil, fade dark spots
Purity Mask – controls breakouts & oil, softens skin, exfoliates
Glow Oil (Sweet Oud)/Glow Oil (Unscented) – nourishes skin, fades scarring
Eden’s Elixir – controls breakouts & oil, balances skin, fades dark spots, exfoliates

Dry skin
Your skin is rarely oily & lacks moisture. It feels rough, tight and may get inflamed.
Recommended for you:
Onyx Polish – hydrates skin as non-drying (please always use an oil or butter to lock in moisture immediately after cleansing with this soap)
Purity Mask – softens skin, reduces inflammation
Glow Oil (Sweet Oud)/Glow Oil (Unscented) / Coco Oil / Ivory Butter – nourishes skin, locks in moisture, fades scarring
Eden’s Elixir – calms irritated skin, gently exfoliates, hydrates skin
Glow Scrub – softens skin, hydrates skin

Combination skin
Your skin has two distinct personalities. Your forehead & nose (your t-zone) are usually oily/shiny and you usually breakout in these areas. Whereas your cheeks are usually dry, sometimes even patchy with drier skin than normal.
Recommended for you:
Onyx Polish – controls breakouts & oil, fade dark spots
Purity Mask – controls breakouts & oil, softens skin, exfoliates
Glow Oil (Sweet Oud)/Glow Oil (Unscented) – nourishes skin, fades scarring
Eden’s Elixir – controls breakouts & oil, balances skin, fades dark spots, exfoliates

Sensitive skin
Your skin basically reacts to basically everything, sometimes even just a change in water or environment and is prone to inflammation. Frequent irritation, redness, eczema, rosacea and psoriasis are standard issues you deal with.
Recommended for you:
Purity Mask – softens skin, reduces inflammation
Glow Oil (Unscented) / Coco Oil / Ivory Butter (Unscented) – these are all free from scents and fragrances, and they nourish skin, lock in moisture & fade scarring
Eden’s Elixir – calms irritated or sensitive skin, gently exfoliates, hydrates skin
