Formed when pores become clogged with excess oil and dead skin cells, they often appear on the nose, chin, and forehead. But fear not! With proper skincare and professional treatments, like extractions and deep-cleansing facials, you can bid farewell to these stubborn imperfections.

During the menstrual cycle, hormonal fluctuations can impact the skin in various ways:

Menstrual Phase (Days 1-7): Hormone levels are low. Focus on hydration to combat any dryness or dullness.

Follicular Phase (Days 7-12): Estrogen increases, promoting collagen production. Skin may appear more radiant and balanced. Use lighter products.

Ovulation (Day 12-17): Hormones peak, possibly leading to increased oiliness. Keep the routine balanced and gentle.

Luteal Phase (Days 17-28): Progesterone rises, leading to potential breakouts and sensitivity. Consider anti-acne treatments and soothing products.

Individual variations exist, so observe how your skin responds and adjust your skincare accordingly.

What does Pumkin Enzymes do for Your Skin? 🎃

Enzymes break down the keratin protein in the upper layer of the skin, which bonds dead skin cells together. Without this, the dead skin can gently slough off. This results in smoother, softer skin and helps diminish scars and pigmentation.

Pumpkin enzymes are alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) that encourage skin gentle exfoliation.

Pumpkin Enzyme Facial is ideal for acne prone congested skin type. It helps loosen up dead skin cells making extractions easier and pain less. It leaves your skin feeling smooth texture free and radiant.

INGREDIENTS IN A NUTSHELL

Find out what the ingredients in skincare products are and how they work to improve the look of wrinkles, age spots, dry skin and more. Also, remember some times, the serums can contain more than one active ingredient, and in some cases, one ingredient can offer more than just one function.

HOW TO READ THE CHART?

Let's start with retinols.

They are used to treat acne and acne-scarred skin.
But when used consistently, it also increases collagen and elastin, both of which have anti-ageing effects.

Likewise, it also brightens up the complexion.
Which is why, it is centered in the middle of the chart, overlapped between three functions (acne + brightening +anti-ageing).

Exfoliation is vital for healthy radiant skin.

It’s important to know different types exfoliation products in order to choose the right one for your skin type and concern.

Physical exfoliation such a exfoliating scrubs is ideal for normal to dry skin types as it works very superficial on the skin. It can also cause micro tears on the skin if not used properly.

Chemical exfoliation includes ingredients like Gycolic acid, salicylic Acid etc to help dissolve dead skin cells and it penetrates deeper into the skin. It can help with acne,texture, discolouration and many more skin concern.

Enzyme exfoliation are usually fruit based enzymes for example pumpkin enzymes that helps break down the dead skin cells gently without causing much irritation. It’s perfect for skin types that are sensitive to chemical exfoliation.

It’s important to exfoliation at least 1-2 times a week depending on your skin type. It can help avoid various types of skin concerns for example whiteheads, blackheads, acne and much more.
