By nature, oily skin is prone to blemishes and excess sebum production. This is where zinc comes in, a mineral with miraculous properties that regulates excess sebum production on the skin, helping to fight spots and unwanted shine. Discover how to incorporate zinc into your beauty routine to restore matte, healthy-looking skin.

What is zinc?

Zinc is an essential trace mineral that is naturally present in the body in small amounts. Known for its anti-inflammatory properties, it helps soothe blemished and red skin, thus reducing the appearance of spots. This ingredient, found in some Gray Paste facial care helps regulate sebum production and helps prevent skin inflammation associated with acne.

The benefits of zinc for oily skin

Anti-inflammatory properties

Zinc acts as a powerful anti-inflammatory on the skin, helping to reduce facial redness and irritation associated with skin imperfections in all skin types. It helps soothe severe skin irritation and irregularities due to acne in adults and adolescents.

Regulates excess sebum

Excess sebum in the skin is one of the main factors contributing to problems with oily skin: blackheads, enlarged pores, pimples, acne, uneven skin texture, etc. The zinc present in a moisturizer works throughout the day to regulate the skin's sebum production without making the skin dry. Its purifying action helps reduce unwanted shine and prevent the appearance of new pimples.

How to integrate it into your beauty routine?

In the morning, an anti-shine treatment

To ensure a matte complexion all day long, we recommend applying a zinc-enriched facial moisturizer Specially designed to combat shine in the T-zone. Moisturizing your skin daily helps preserve its hydrolipidic film and protect it from external aggressions such as pollution, which can cause imperfections.

When combination to oily skin secretes a large amount of sebum, it means that its skin flora is unbalanced. We recommend applying a suitable product that will address this issue. Enriched with glycolic and lactic acid, Moisturizing Mattifying Emulsion controls and balances excess sebum throughout the day and mattifies the skin.

Its soothing action and its ability to even out the complexion make zinc a valuable element in tinted creams like the CC creams which aim to conceal imperfections and improve the appearance of the skin during the day. Apply the Perfecting Tinted Cream SPF30 to mattify and unify the complexion, your pigment spots will be reduced.
