How to have a beautiful and healthy skin?
At Nidéco, we co-create products that have the common goal of revealing the best of our skin thanks to the power of nature. Because wanting a "beautiful skin" is above all wanting a healthy skin.
When it comes to the health of our skin, we are not all in the same boat.
However, one desire is common to many of you (we surveyed more than 12,000 people), and that is the "imperfections" that seem to weigh on your daily life.
Behind this shameful word, we must admit, are mainly acne problems. And even if it is a totally normal phenomenon that should not prevent you from feeling beautiful, reducing the appearance of acne and treating it remains important to keep a healthy skin.
There are different types of acne, such as juvenile acne and adult acne:
TEENAGE ACNE
The first appears in adolescence and disappears naturally in adulthood. It appears in many forms: micro-cysts, inflammations of which red spots, blackheads... Pimples" are an inflammatory phenomenon mainly present on the famous T-zone of the face, more conducive to the development of pimples because it is more "oily".
HORMONAL ACNE
Hormonal acne, on the other hand, appears when there is a hormonal imbalance. We often talk about it with Oh My Periods! our special premenstrual care. It can sometimes appear as a cyst, which is difficult to treat by skin.
The first step towards solving this problem is to exfoliate your skin from time to time (to limit hyperkeratinization, which causes microcysts) and use a daily cleanser to regulate excess sebum.
ACNE COSMÉTICA
THE MASKNEE
We also take the opportunity to make you a small point on the famous "maskné". For some time now, many of us have no choice but to wear the mask all day.
Results: ❌ dryness, discomfort and repeated appearance of blemishes.
This new phenomenon even has a name: maskne. A contraction of "mask" and "acne", this word may make you smile, but it evokes a situation that is not insignificant: the appearance of pimples and irritations linked to wearing a mask.
👉 Reasons:
- Condensation under the mask due to the drop in temperature and the warm air coming out of the mouth. This constant humidity is conducive to the proliferation of bacteria.
- Breath that, despite frequent brushing, can be loaded with bacteria.
- The prolonged wearing of the mask then acts as an incubator for bacteria.
Our practical advice for a perfect skin in a natural way
🤓 WHAT TO DO TO PROCESS ALL THIS?
- Do not pierce a pimple as this may "infect" the surrounding pores.
- Do not strip the skin because it will most likely react by protecting itself and creating an overproduction of sebum.
- No makeup, as often as possible: to avoid the famous cosmetica acne due to suffocating skin and clogged pores.
- We also avoid cosmetics containing occlusive silicones and petrolatum (regular cause of cosmetic acne).
- We regularly wash our fabric masks, avoiding detergents that are too aggressive and softeners that can be allergenic.
- We prefer masks made of natural fibers such as cotton to allow the skin to breathe and to avoid excessive condensation between the skin and the mask.
