Your Pure-Scription for Oily Skin
Your skin is more prone to acne, tends to produce excess oil and pore size is visibly larger on forehead, nose, chin and cheeks. You often reach for oil-blotting sheets by noon, you’ve simply accepted the fact that blackheads have become your fate and finding a cure for chronic acne has been your mission in life.
But oil-rich isn’t all bad - the best part about having oil-rich skin? Your skin is naturally hydrated and is slow to show signs of aging. Oil-rich skin = Youthful appearance.
Your Recommended Regimen
Your Pure-Scription
Step 1: Cleanse
Cleansing Oil: Specifically formulated to detoxify the skin and dissolve impurities without over-drying so that you're left with a complexion that feels soft, clean and balanced.
Skin Tip: Cleansing 1x/day before bed is all you need! If you need more of a refresh first thing in the morning (or after a sweat session), use the Baby Bar for a gentle cleanse.
Step 2: Tone
Everything Spray: Pour onto an organic cotton round and sweep across your skin to help calm redness, detoxify skin and balance pH levels with healing enzymes + anti-inflammatory ingredients.
Skin Specific Mists: Spritz these botanical hydrosols onto skin to replenish the skin’s protective barrier and prep skin to deeply absorb moisturizer.
Skin Tip: Rotate all three Skin Specific Mists into your regimen depending on the time of day, season or current skin needs.
Step 3: Treat
3 Skin Specific Serums (Plumping, Clarifying, Soothing): Massage into damp skin morning + night to promote a youthful appearance, prevent signs of aging and deeply nourish to support vibrant, balanced skin.
Step 4: Hydrate
Skin Specific Cream: Apply a light layer (if needed!) to boost moisture, balance skin and deliver a potent dose of antioxidants - all without clogging pores.
Skin Tip: You can skip the morning moisturizer, but before bed, apply a light layer of Skin Specific Cream over your serum to deeply absorb the skin-loving benefits while you sleep. Zzzzz...
Bonus: Double Cleanse + Multi-Mask
Double Cleanse: This 2-step technique (Cleansing Oil+Skin Specific Bar) purifies oil-rich skin while leaving it properly hydrated to create a clear, balanced complexion.
Mask Trio: Gently sweep away dead/dull surface cells, refine skin texture and support combination skin needs all at the same time. Multi-mask and relax to reveal visibly brighter skin.

FAQs

You may notice some results right away, such as more nourished, balanced skin and an overall more glowing complexion. For some skin states, if you're just starting out with a natural skincare routine and transitioning to non-toxic products for the first time, your skin may experience a bit of an adjustment period! We suggest staying consistent with your regimen for about 6-8 weeks for your skin to detoxify and determine how effective the regimen is for your skin needs. Natural products adopt the pace of nature (slow + steady), so sometimes patience is necessary with new products.
However, if your skin reacts immediately after applying a new product, discontinue use until your skin heals. You can try slowly incorporating that product back into your skincare routine to discover if it’s an allergy, sensitivity or just a bit of shock from a brand new product. -
Because breakouts, sensitivities and dryness can all be impacted by hormones, gut health, environmental factors, stress, nutrition and more, topical products aren’t always the only solution. If you’re prone to these skin conditions, the best way to get real results is to start at the source. Our skin is our largest organ and is a reflection of what’s going on beneath the surface, so it’s essential to take a holistic approach to achieve a naturally clear, healthy complexion.
It’s important to build a consistent beauty routine on the foundations of a healthy lifestyle to support skin that truly glows - from the food we put on our plate and the way we cope with stress to the quality of our sleep and the state of our mind + mood, it all makes a difference. We encourage you to make healthy habits a priority in your clear skin protocol (and daily life) for vibrant, balanced and hydrated skin that lasts.
Not sure where to start? We’ve curated countless clear skin content on our blog, Pure Life, and created a Holistic Skincare Guide in partnership with other industry experts to offer you powerful insight + practical tips to promote glowing skin through diet + nutrition, lifestyle habits and topical skincare products. -
Sometimes dry skin can be the result of over-cleansing. If you're noticing more dryness with your double-cleansing ritual, try cleansing with just the Cleansing Oil at night and skip the double cleanse. You can also focus on hydration in your evening routine by layering your skin-specific serum and beauty cream to wake up with a healthy, hydrated glow. Some people find that adding a natural clay + honey-based mask into their routine helps their products absorb more deeply.
If your skin is experiencing more oil production throughout the day, feel free to use just your complexion mists as a moisturizer in the AM - some oil-rich skin states find that this is all they need for day-time hydration. Also try incorporating the double cleansing technique to your nightly routine more regularly to help deeply purify skin + balance oil production.
