BALANCE - MATIFYING LOTION
Goodbye imperfections
Impure, combination skin with imperfections is generally caused by sebaceous gland dysfunction associated with overproduction of the enzyme 5-alpha reductase; this affects sebum production ultimately resulting in excessive sebum production.
The skin takes on a shiny, greasy appearance, which can sometimes be accompanied by inflammatory conditions. When sebum is produced in large quantities, it excessively dilates the walls of the hair follicles, which it then clogs, causing blackheads and pimples.
Keeping skin clean and optimally hydrated helps to visibly reduce the imperfections caused by this condition. That’s why it's important to opt for a professional treatment that purifies, mattifies, hydrates and smoothes the skin and helps minimize imperfections.
Skin imperfections (dilated pores, shine, uneven bumps, outbreaks), often more frequent during puberty, but also at other times, are caused by excessive sebum production and factors such as stress and pollution, which alter hormonal balance. The Balance line comprises specific cosmetic products studied to combat combination and oily skin, with blemishes, freeing it from the toxins and impurities that accumulate daily on the surface, for a day-long uniform, matt appearance.
