The ideal beauty routine for my combination or oily skin
1time Step: We clean with a cleansing gel
First step for an oily skin beauty routine: Effective cleaning. For combination to oily skin, it is strongly recommended to use a gentle cleansing gel.
Combination to oily skin needs 2 daily cleanings : One in the morning to eliminate the sebum produced during the night and one in the evening to eliminate all the impurities accumulated during the day.
Attention : The purpose of the cleansing gel is to cleanse the skin and not to remove it. It is therefore advisable to remove make-up from the skin and eyes in addition to cleaning.
In order not to attack your skin, we advise you to use a gentle cleansing gel without aggressive agents that could damage your skin. We prefer a natural cleansing gel who will come purify the skin.

on natural formula based of organic aloe vera, Neem and Pink Grapefruit gently cleanse and purify the skin while taking care not to dehydrate it.

3th step: Choose a moisturizer and anti-pollution cream
Despite what you might think, combination to oily skin also needs hydration. For a 2 in 1 action, we advise you to choose an anti-pollution moisturizer. This will deeply hydrate your skin while protecting it from pollution and its adverse effects on the skin.
Pollution increases the production of sebum in the skin. Indeed, the mission of sebum is to protect the skin against external aggressions. When the skin feels attacked by pollution, it overproduces sebum and our face becomes oily.
If this problem is not treated, this overproduction of sebum can lead to skin problems such as pimples, blackheads, clogged pores or unpleasant shiny skin.
To overcome this overproduction of sebum, we advise you to use a natural anti-pollution treatment. At MCF, we love Demain beauty's anti-pollution moisturizer "Go for protection":

4th step: The right gesture, The face scrub
For a radiant complexion and purified skin, we advise you to exfoliate your face once a week.
For combination to oily skin, it is very common to accumulate sebaceous filaments on the nose. They are often confused with blackheads. It is in fact an accumulation of sebum which comes to interfere in the dilated pores of the skin and give the effect "strawberry skin".
To gently eliminate these particles and regain clean, purified skin, we advise you to choose a scrub without grains or with very fine grains so as not to attack your skin.
