All skincare brands keep promises us that if we will try their amazing new products we are going to have the best young fresh damn looking skin. But is it really true? Is it really so simple as just applying a product to our face can change a skin type to normal?  Sorry, but I will tell you definitely no :( It's sad and I will explain it to you in my next article How does the cream works on the skin and if they really works or not? But now to understand that first of all I want to talk a little bit about what is really happening.  Sebaceous glands produce sebum ( natural oily substance ) which moves throughout the hair shaft to the epidermis and covers it in order to protect from moisture loss. Everything is working well and as a result we have nice normal looking, protected and moisturized skin. When something goes worng, our body reacts and starts producing more or less sebum depending of the situation and as a result of that activity we are having a dry or oily skin. There are a lot of factors which can cause that - from changing of the wheather ( why our skin condition changes during different seasons of the year? ) to our nutricions intake. Unless we were diagnosted with skin problems all of us are having a normal skin type and everything other ( dry, itchy skin or acne and excess of oils) it's just how our body reacts trying to protect us and our skin from some negative impact or something inside of us causing all those problems. So it's not about cleaning or treating your skin from outside at all. All the cosmetic products (and it was proved by scientists, but isn't it weird that nobody talks about that? I will tell you more later in How does the cream works on the skin? ) design to just temporary help us to normalize the skin condition on the epidermis level, which is greate but it's not going to be a permanent result.  It's very important to find out what is the reason that your oil produce is not normal if you want to achive a gorgeous skin. And I'll help you with this in my next two articles about CAUSES OF THE OILY SKIN ana CAUSES OF THE DRY SKIN. If you will find out what's going on and why your body produces more or less sebum you will be able to look great even without no makeup on :) and I promise you will be receiving a lots of compliments about your skin since there is nothing more beautiful and powerfull than healthy, young, natural, shiny skin.
