THE DAILY BASIC SKINCARE ROUTINE

Optimal skin health doesn't require many products, but the right skincare products: a gentle yet effective cleanser, a hydrating toner, and a moisturizer with highly effective ingredients.

Individual skin health and cosmetic skin types

With the abundance of information and skincare products on the skincare market, it is easy to lose track. Which products are actually necessary, and how should they be used best? The key is to understand your own skin type and take into account the associated individual needs. The personal cosmetic skin type can be easily determined at home by washing the face with lukewarm water and examining the skin condition after 30 minutes. If the skin feels tight, flakes, or is dry, you have a dry skin type. The skin is shiny? Oily skin. Oily skin areas in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) and on the cheeks is the complexion normal or rather dry, characterize combination skin. Based on the individual result, different active ingredients, also known as actives, can then be incorporated into the individual skincare routine to specifically address the specific skin needs.

For which skin types is DR. EMI ARPA SKIN suitable?

To introduce her skincare line, dermatologist Dr. Emi Arpa developed the Core Collection, consisting of three skincare products suitable for all skin types and conditions: normal skin, dry skin, combination skin, oily skin, dehydrated skin, sensitive skin, skin prone to blemishes and acne, and even skin prone to rosacea and redness.

The Core Collection, consisting of gel cleanser, toner, and moisturizer, offers a basic skincare routine and is even suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding individuals. All formulations are evidence-based and optimize individual skin health.

The DR. EMI ARPA Core Collection

The highly effective ingredients of the Gel Cleanser, Toner, and Moisturizer from the DR. EMI ARPA Core Collection can transform the skin's appearance as follows with daily use: the skin microbiome is brought into a balanced equilibrium, the skin's own lipid protective layer is built up, and thus the skin barrier as a whole is strengthened. The result: incomparable glow and skin that is long-lastingly moisturized. This works thanks to innovative active ingredients that are carefully used in effective concentrations based on their scientific evidence.

The optimal skincare routine: Cleanser, Toner, Moisturizer

The basic skincare routine for every day consists of the following three steps: cleansing (CLEANSE), toning (PREPARE), and moisturizing (MOISTURIZE). All three steps should be performed in this order in the evening.

CLEANSE – The Ten out of Ten Gentle Gel Cleanser is a mild gel cleanser that gently but effectively removes makeup, excess sebum, sunscreen products, and environmental impurities from the skin.

PREPARE – The Essential Essence Skin Balancing Toner prepares the skin optimally for subsequent care with moisturizing, soothing, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant ingredients.

MOISTURIZE – Afterwards, the moisturizer called Barrier Boost CPA Barrier Repair forms the perfect finish by building up the skin barrier, strengthening it, and protecting it from environmental aggressors.

In the morning, this skincare routine can be applied in a modified form. Dry skin types do not necessarily need cleansers – washing the face with lukewarm water can be sufficient in the morning. Afterwards, toner and then moisturizer can be applied again. Both products from DR. EMI ARPA SKIN provide moisture to the skin, soothe, and strengthen the skin barrier. Indispensable in the morning at any time of the year: After the moisturizer, apply sunscreen to protect the skin from harmful UV radiation, minimize the risk of skin cancer, and prevent UV-A-induced skin aging.

PS: Dermatologist Dr. Emi Arpa and her team are working hard on a DR. EMI ARPA sunscreen that completes this skincare routine. Until then, a selected sunscreen with SPF 50 (UVB protection) and high UVA protection should be applied daily. Sign up here for our newsletter to be the first to know when DR.
