Step one: define whether my skin is combination/oily
There are a few signs that can help you determine whether your skin is combination or oily:
Excessive shine: If your face tends to be shiny, particularly in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin), you probably have oily skin. If this shine is accompanied by dilated pores and imperfections, it reinforces the indication of oily skin.
Sensations of oily skin: If you often feel a sensation of oily skin, even shortly after cleansing your face, this may be a sign of oily skin.
Frequent appearance of imperfections: People with oily skin are more likely to develop pimples, blackheads and other imperfections due to the overproduction of sebum. On combination or oily skin, pores are often clogged and therefore don't evacuate excess sebum.
Dry and oily areas: If you notice that some parts of your face are dry (like the cheeks) while others are oily (like the T-zone), it's likely that you have combination skin.
Observing these signs and evaluating your skin's texture and appearance over time can help you better understand your skin type and adapt your skincare routine accordingly. If you have any doubts, it may be worth consulting a dermatologist for professional advice. And, in any case, it's vital to use products suited to your skin type!

Care routine :
Morning and evening cleaning: Use our gentle cleansing gel for combination to oily skin to remove excess sebum, impurities and make-up residue without drying the skin.
Light moisturizing: Opt for our light, non-comedogenic moisturizing cream that hydrates the skin without adding oil. Look for formulas with hyaluronic acid, for example, to maintain the skin's moisture balance. Just because you have oily skin doesn't mean you shouldn't moisturize!
Sun protection: Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 every day, even on cloudy days. Choose a lightweight, non-comedogenic formula to protect your skin from UV rays without clogging pores.
Mattifying base: Apply a mattifying base to the T-zone to control shine and prolong the wear of your make-up. Choose an oil-free formula that helps regulate sebum production. Our foundation primer is perfect for combination or oily skin, as it contains silica to absorb excess sebum, matify the skin and help reduce pores. The mica it contains will blur imperfections while maintaining a luminous effect.

Make-up routine:
BB Mattifying Cream: BB cream acts to mattify and purify the skin. Thanks to its special ingredients, it helps reduce excess sebum, mattify the skin and dry out imperfections in targeted areas. Its creamy texture and moderate-to-full coverage make it a true tinted cream, evening out skin tone.
Mattifying powder: Set your make-up with a light powder to reduce shine and extend wear throughout the day. Our compact powder is perfectly suited to combination to oily skin types as it contains mica to improve the appearance of skin texture.
If you want to add a touch of freshness and pep to your makeup, blush and illuminator are perfect.. Be sure to use powders rather than sticks, as they are better suited to your skin type.
Pastel filter : The pastel filter is the ideal choice for combination to oily skin, as it evens out the complexion without weighing it down, giving the skin a powdery, filtered effect while setting make-up. Used as a finishing touch for evening make-up, it fuses textures for long-lasting hold until the first light of morning. Likewise, applied quickly after using your Charlotte Bio foundation, BB or CC Crème on a daily basis, it offers an immediate touch of radiance.
Eye and lip make-up: Opt for non-comedogenic, water-based products for eyes and lips. Use oil-free and matte matte lipsticks to avoid adding extra oil to your skin.
By following this adapted skincare and make-up routine, you can help control excess sebum, minimize shine and keep your combination to oily skin balanced and healthy all day long.

Why opt for organic products for combination to oily skin?
For combination to oily skin, the use of organic, healthy, clean and natural products is of paramount importance. Indeed, these skin types tend to be more sensitive to chemicals and aggressive ingredients, which can aggravate problems of shine and imperfections.

Opting for healthy, clean formulations not only preserves the skin's natural balance, but also minimizes the risk of irritation and allergies.
