In the world of skincare, it's sometimes hard to make the right choice when faced with the multitude of products available, whether in supermarkets or luxury cosmetics brands. How to choose the right skincare products without being a skin expert? Skincare specialists recommend keeping it simple! However, everyone's skin care routine should include a few essential steps:
Daily cleansing is essential to keeping your skin looking radiant and healthy. Preparing the skin with a good cleanser not only helps preventing aging, but also enhance benefits of other products and treatments.
Cleansers/ Make-up removers are available at all prices and in a variety of forms: cleansing milk, cleansing gel, cream, toner, micellar water, cleansing foam or cleansing fluid. Choose a gentle, neutral product to rid the skin of impurities without damaging the skin barrier. Natural oils such as olive or argan oil can be an excellent alternative if you run out of make-up remover.
In our collection, for a deep cleansing, we particularly recommend Professional Cleansing gel, to unclog pores, dissolve impurities and remove waterproof makeup without stinging or irritation. For those who prefer lighter textures, Cleansing Milk will also leave your skin clean and soft without stripping or dryness.
2.Exfoliation
Even with rigorous make-up removal, the skin accumulates impurities that can clog pores and cause imperfections. A regular facial scrub gets rid of dead cells and excess sebum, clarifying the complexion and stimulating cell renewal. To avoid irritation, choose a gentle exfoliant with rounded grains. This is essential to prevent invisible micro-lesions that weaken the skin. We recommend our Mild Scrub for an effective yet gentle exfoliator that respects the skin’s integrity while making it smoother.
3.Mask
After exfoliation, a soothing, moisturizing and nourishing face mask is ideal for perfecting your skin care routine. It can also be toning, purifying or smoothing, depending on your specific needs. Our mask all-in-one Essential Mask, is ideal for restoring radiance and hydration to your skin, and can even be used overnight for intensive care.
4.Moisturising cream
Hydration is the key to healthy, radiant skin. Ideally, choose a moisturizer that contains a UVA-UVB sun filter to prevent premature skin aging. From the age of 18, it’s a good idea to start using a cream that protects the skin while maintaining its elasticity and firmness. To maximize effectiveness, gently massage your face to stimulate microcirculation before application.
Our oxygen-enriched creams offer deep hydration, while our Day Protection SPF 10 provides effective protection against the harmful effects of the sun’s rays. If you apply a foundation afterwards, avoid creams that are too rich, which could alter the way your make-up holds. BB Cream provides light and mattifying coverage to even skin tone and hide blemishes.
5. Eye contour cream
The area around the eyes is much finer and more delicate than the rest of the face. It quickly shows signs of fatigue, which is why it’s crucial to take care of it, even as a preventive measure. To combat dark circles, bags under the eyes, fine lines and sagging eyelids, apply a draining and toning treatment. Use a small cooled roller, such as a jade roller, to reduce puffiness and decongest this fragile area. Karin Herzog’s Eye Cream offers a combination of oxygen and vitamins to hydrate, reactivate blood circulation and reduce wrinkles.
These five basic products are essential for maintaining healthy, radiant skin all year round. By taking care of your face with quality skincare products, you’re helping to preserve your skin’s natural beauty and prevent the signs of aging.
