Doesn’t acne suck? Acne can ruin your day. It can be unpredictable and difficult to cover up. Most of us have suffered from a pimple from time to time, even throughout adulthood. For some of us, adult acne is a persistent problem. It may be a challenge to rid your skin of pimples, acne, and blackheads, as your skin produces a lot of sebum. Rather than using heavy make-up or over-exfoliating (which eventually boosts sebum production), you can use gentle serums to help calm acne-prone skin. Regardless of your needs, ELLA i SKiN understands the delicate nature of trying a new product for your skin type. You need gentle formulations to calm your skin and not trigger breakouts, while still delivering anti-aging and nourishing benefits. It may seem like a bad idea to apply a serum to acne prone skin. Yes, the wrong serum could prove to make skin feel greasy, such as serums that include unfractionated coconut oil or shea butter. However, the correct serum can help mattify skin and treat breakouts. ELLA i SKiN serums are highly concentrated with active organic ingredients so truly a very small amount is needed and goes a long way!
3.

Dry/Aging Skin

Aging skin? Dehydrated? According to your answers, you have always had dry skin or you're at an age when skin produces less sebum, making it dehydrated. Constantly battling with dry flaky skin can be frustrating and frankly, not pretty. Your skin needs a targeted approach when it comes to selecting a serum. “For dry skin types, especially during winter months, a serum that contains ingredients that can bind water to the skin or create a protective layer that holds water in the skin can be a noticeably helpful addition to your skin care routine,” as per dermatologist Tsippora Shainhouse, MD, FAAD. Your skin can be prone to tightness and flaking if it's not properly moisturized. Here are two serums to help your skin feel smooth and soft. Oh, not to mention that they are both maxed with anti-aging properties!
5.
Hyperpigmentation

Melasma/Sun Damage/Dark Spots/Acne Scarring It probably comes to no surprise that hyperpigmentation is one of the most stubborn skin conditions. This skin condition is extremely persistent and frankly, annoying. Skin discolouration can be difficult to hide, even with heavy makeup. But who wants to wear all a ton of makeup? Hyperpigmentation is when some sections of skin appear darker than other areas of skin due to an excess amount of melanin. The uneven skin pigmentation (i.e. dark patches) is associated with a variety of conditions and can be caused by sun exposure, inflammation, and hormonal fluctuations. Hyperpigmentation is very difficult to treat and requires a lifelong commitment of maintenance. It is also tricky so you have to be careful if you venture into invasive procedures, as some spa treatments can potentially make the dark pigmentation worse. There are many ways to avoid the factors that cause hyperpigmentation. When it comes to topical prevention and treatment, you must be diligent. That means applying appropriate topical serums in conjunction with a physical sunblock DAILY. Hyperpigmentation requires patience and can take a long time to get under control. With time & effort, it can be maintained and you WILL notice a difference.It is imperative to have good quality serums that are rich in antioxidants that repair skin damage and help with collagen production. It is also important to use ingredients that will boost your sun defence on top of your environmental protection.
