Your skin is the body’s largest organ. It weighs between two and four kilos (or 4 and 8 pounds), covers between one and two square metres (9 to 36 square feet) and completely renews itself every seven to ten weeks, with approximately five million dead skin cells rubbing off on a daily basis.
Your skin reflects your state of health and your biological age, being soft and smooth when well-cared for, or dry and flaky when taken for granted. To be the proud owner of beautiful, soft, young-looking skin, you need to take care of it. When taking care of your skin, it’s vital that you take care of the part of you that everybody sees – your face and neck.
The absolute golden rule, before you start using products on the delicate skin of your face, is to determine your skin type…

Drier cheek area
Occasional pimples and spots
Dry and sensitive skin
Fine, dry lines around the eyes and mouth, dehydration lines on fact
