Frequently Asked Questions

Which organic sun product do you recommend for acne-prone skin? 

The sun is a 'false-friend' for acne. At first, exposure to sunlight seems like it improves acne, but in reality it makes it worse and after the holidays there is a real 'rebound effect'. Indeed to defend itself against UV, the epidermis thickens, which can increase the blocking of sebaceous follicules where pimples form: black spots and microkysts increase. Acne scarring must also be protected from UV so that they do not become unsightly. Moreover, most anti-acne treatments increase photo-sensitivity. 

For many reasons, acne-prone skin must therefore be protected from the sun with high SPF and non-greasy Organic sunscreen products. We particularly recommend using our SPF50 Face Cream, that has a non-greasy formula and our SPF50+ Stick that protects and camoflages skin imperfections at the same time.
