Understanding acne, pimples and their causes
Acne is a common skin condition that usually manifests as pimples, blackheads, and areas of oily skin. It is mainly caused by excess sebum, an oily substance produced by the sebaceous glands in the skin. When this oil builds up in the pores of the skin, it can lead to inflammation and the formation of pimples.
Hormonal fluctuations, especially those related to androgen, can increase sebum production, which is why acne is common during puberty. However, acne can also appear in adulthood, often due to hormonal factors such as the menstrual cycle, pregnancy or menopause.
Other factors can also cause imperfections, including:
- The use of unsuitable or comedogenic cosmetic products (which clog pores)
- An unbalanced lifestyle
- Exposure to pollution
Choosing skincare products tailored to your skin type and specific needs, such as anti-blemish creams, can help improve the appearance of your skin.
An effective anti-imperfection care routine: the best choice for adult or adolescent skin
For an anti-imperfection routine whatever your age, it is essential to follow several key steps:
- Double cleanse: Use a gentle product to remove makeup, as well as another to get rid of excess oil and impurities. Choose oils or micellar waters to remove makeup, and gentle foaming cleansers to cleanse.
- Exfoliation: Once a week, regularly remove dead cells with a gentle exfoliation. This helps unclog pores, eliminate blackheads and prevent the appearance of new spots.
- Treatment: Apply specific products locally such as an organic or natural anti-blemish treatment. These treatments target the specific needs of your skin such as inflammation or healing to help you fade spots as quickly as possible.
- Hydration: Contrary to popular belief, oily skin prone to spots and acne also needs to be hydrated. Opt for a light, non-comedogenic moisturizing day and night cream so as not to clog your pores.
- Protection: Finally, don't forget to protect your skin with a sunscreen adapted to your skin type to prevent the appearance of new imperfections and fade existing ones.
Please note, although anti-blemish treatments and serums can help improve the appearance of the skin, they do not replace medical advice and possible medicinal treatments in cases of severe or persistent acne. Indeed, a healthcare professional can assess the severity of your acne and recommend the most appropriate treatment.
The role of organic anti-imperfection and mattifying moisturizing creams in facial care
Organic anti-imperfection and mattifying moisturizing creams are essential allies for maintaining healthy and balanced skin. They are particularly suitable for combination to oily skin.
These creams have the role of regulating excess sebum while hydrating the skin. Indeed, well-hydrated skin is skin that is more resistant to external aggressions and is less prone to inflammation responsible for skin imperfections.
Mattifying creams have specific properties that control sebum secretion to limit unwanted shine. They offer an immediate and long-lasting matte effect, ideal for combination to oily skin.
These treatments act on different types of imperfections (inflammatory spots, blackheads, pigmented marks) thanks to their composition rich in purifying active ingredients. They help to cleanse, soothe and hydrate the skin.
Finally, they are formulated from natural and organic ingredients, respectful of the skin and the environment.

Choosing a sunscreen suitable for problem skin
For problem skin, choosing the right sunscreen is crucial. It is preferable to opt for a mineral, natural and above all non-comedogenic sunscreen to avoid clogging your pores. We also recommend opting for a light texture.
Tinted sunscreens can be a good option, they even out skin tone while preventing spots and scars. Care must also be taken to choose an adequate protection index. SPF 50 or higher is recommended for optimal protection.
