For a healthy skin, it is recommended that the skincare products we use don’t contain perfume and alcohol. As much as we like creams with a tempting vanilla scent, our skin doesn’t have the same opinion. The problem also comes up when we talk about alcohol – many brands choose to use it, because it helps the product to be absorbed much faster and it has a mattifying effect.

What are the effects of these two ingredients? Perfume and alcohol dry out, sensitize and destroy the skin's natural healing barrier, and on the long-term it can cause irritation and discomfort. At the same time, they are totally forbidden to people with acne or whose complexion is prone to imperfections. It is recommended to wash your face with a cleansing gel twice a day, in the morning and evening, before using the other products in your routine.
