Simple Steps to Help Keep Skin Clear

Simple Steps to Help Keep Skin Clear

Rooted in hard science, our philosophy is simple: healthy skin is beautiful skin. But what does that mean for keeping your specific skin type clear? While some of us may be more oily or blemish-prone than others, our unique approach paired with industry-leading clinical proof allows you to find products that truly work for YOUR skin. All while keeping it protected, hydrated, and blemish-free! 

Avoid Harsh Chemicals

With blemish-prone skin, one may be tempted to try the “strongest” or “fastest-acting” skin care product on the market. But as a barrier-first company, we’re here to tell you that it’s best to be highly selective towards the ingredients you put on your skin. 

At Epionce, the latest trending ingredient rarely makes the cut. That’s why, unlike many other products on the market, our products do not contain harsh ingredients that irritate the skin or cause unnecessary dryness. Our well-balanced formulas used for your step by step skin care routine are vigorously tested and clinically proven. 

We recommend staying away from parabens, fragrances, sulfates, and other harsh chemicals that can strip the skin of its naturally-occurring and necessary oil and leave you feeling irritated and exposed for other barrier issues to arise. 

Be Kind To Your Skin Barrier

As the outermost layer of our skin that covers our entire body, it’s important we always treat our skin barrier with some love. It’s the kindest thing you can do, even when you’re frustrated by imperfections. While it may feel counterintuitive, keeping your skin’s natural production of oil in place is essential. Stripping too much oil can result in a feeling of dryness and oil overproduction, leading to clogged pores. 

Finding the right balance of skin care essentials, like a cleanser and moisturizer for your unique skin type can be tricky, especially if you’re prone to blemishes. But Epionce carries a variety of products that are gentle, effective, and nourishing for your barrier. 

For example, our Lytic Gel Cleanser is dermatologist-recommended, and a must-have for oily and problem skin types. It effectively dissolves dirt, oil and makeup, and calms the visible appearance of irritated skin without over-drying! Pair it with our Renewal Lite Facial Lotion. An ultra light-weight hydration for oilier skin types, it’s expertly formulated to improve skin clarity and radiance for more healthy-looking skin.

Protect Your Skin Barrier

It’s no secret that we’re fans of protecting the skin barrier. While we often consider barrier protection as only SPF, it’s essential to safeguard and support the barrier with the right products and adjust them to the weather in other ways. For example, use a lightweight moisturizer in warmer, more humid climates. 

Our Daily Shield Tinted SPF 50 Sunscreen provides broad-spectrum protection that evens out skin tone while imparting a natural-looking healthy glow. It’s also water resistant (for up to 80 minutes), a light, quick-absorbing antioxidant rich sheer formula, and was awarded “Best Under Makeup” by the Shape Magazine 2017 Sun Awards!

Epionce provides the foundation to address your skin care needs, but we always recommend meeting with a skin care professional to understand your unique skin type and start a weekly skin care routine that meets YOUR specific concerns. 

Our Epionce Pros are trained skin care professionals who provide in-person education and supervision to create a clinically-proven at-home regimen tailored to your needs. The benefits of a skin care routine that has been curated by an Epionce Pro will pay dividends!
