We pitched your burning beauty questions to a team of dermatologists, brand founders and skincare experts to help you conquer your common skincare bugbears. Time for some FAQs “I hate my spots – what can I do to help clear my complexion?” “Start with the basics. A gentle, pH-balanced cleanser to remove dirt, make up and oil, followed by a non-drying, targeted treatment. Ingredients like PHA (polyhydroxy acid) and zinc are great for targeting clogged pores and imperfections, while blue tansy is ideal for soothing redness. Always moisturise – choose an oil-free, lightweight formula.” “I know I should wear sunscreen, but it breaks me out.Is there an SPF to suit my oily skin type?” “Don’t put off wearing sunscreen because you’ve heard it blocks your pores – it’s a common myth. These days, well-formulated sunscreens exist that are suitable for all skin types, even acneprone skin. Look for sheer, thin textures and experiment with formulas that contain a blend of synthetic and mineral actives. And make sure you cleanse thoroughly at the end of the day.” Team of experts at Byoma Heather Wish, Skincare Education Manager at Paulas Choice
