We’ll also discuss where oily skin comes from and how to manage it effectively, as this is where Serozinc really shines. Get ready to discover how this product can transform your skincare routine and help you reveal healthier, more balanced skin.

The origin of oily skin

Understanding the origin of oily skin is key to knowing how to manage it effectively. Oily skin is generally the result of excessive sebum production by the skin’s sebaceous glands. Sebum is an oily substance naturally produced by the skin to protect it and keep it hydrated. However, when too much sebum is produced, it can make the skin look shiny and contribute to clogged pores, leading to blemishes and breakouts.

Several factors can contribute to the excessive production of sebum and therefore to oily skin. These include

  1. Genetics: Oily skin can be hereditary. If your parents have oily skin, you’re more likely to have it too.
  2. Hormonal changes: Hormonal fluctuations, whether during adolescence, the menstrual cycle, pregnancy or as a result of certain medications, can increase sebum production.
  3. Climate: A hot, humid environment can stimulate sebum production.
  4. Poor skincare habits: Over-cleansing the skin or using inappropriate skincare products can irritate the skin and stimulate increased sebum production.

It’s important to note that oily skin is not necessarily a bad thing. Sebum plays an important role in protecting the skin from external aggressors and in keeping it hydrated. The challenge is to manage excessive sebum production to maintain a healthy skin balance. Products specially designed for oily skin, such as Serozinc by La Roche-Posay, can help regulate sebum production and keep skin healthy.

What is Serozinc made of?

The secret of Serozinc’s effectiveness lies in its composition. It is formulated with three key ingredients:

– Zinc

Zinc is renowned for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, making it an essential component of this spray.

– La Roche-Posay thermal spring water

La Roche-Posay thermal spring water is rich in selenium, a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from free radicals.

– Sodium chloride

Sodium chloride, or salt, is used for its purifying and astringent properties.

How does Serozinc work?

In this section, we’ll look at the mechanism of action of Serozinc, explaining how this simple yet innovative product is able to deliver so many benefits to the skin.

Controlling skin shine

One of the biggest concerns for those with oily skin is excessive shine. This is mainly due to increased sebum production, which, although necessary for skin health, can lead to an undesirable shiny appearance when excessive. Fortunately, Serozinc by La Roche-Posay offers a solution to this problem.

  • Zinc, one of the main ingredients in Serozinc, plays a key role in regulating sebum production. It has a sebum-regulating action that helps to balance the skin’s production of sebum. In fact, several studies have shown that zinc can significantly reduce sebum production and, consequently, skin shine.
  • What’s more, zinc has anti-inflammatory properties which can help reduce the inflammation often associated with oily skin. It also helps to reduce redness and irritation, creating healthier, more balanced skin.
  • By effectively regulating sebum production, Serozinc not only helps to control skin shine, but alsoimproves the overall appearance of the skin. Regular use of this spray can therefore help to achieve matte, soothed and visibly improved skin.

In short, Serozinc is not just a beauty product, it’s a genuine skin care product that targets and treats one of the most common problems encountered by people with oily skin. With its ability to control skin shine, Serozinc could be just the product you’ve been looking for to give your skin a more matte and healthy appearance.

Fights skin imperfections

Skin imperfections can be a major source of concern, affecting not only the appearance of the skin, but also your self-confidence. This is where Serozinc by La Roche-Posay comes in, formulated to help effectively combat skin imperfections.

  • Sodium chloride, commonly known as salt, is one of the key ingredients in Serozinc. It has proven purifying properties that help to deeply cleanse the skin, removing impurities and excess sebum that can clog pores. By purifying the skin, sodium chloride helps prevent the appearance of imperfections and improves the appearance of those already present.
  • At the same time, La Roche-Posay thermal spring water, another key ingredient in Serozinc, provides soothing and anti-inflammatory benefits. Rich in selenium, a powerful antioxidant, thermal spring water helps to reduce the inflammation often associated with skin imperfections. It also promotes skin regeneration, helping blemishes to heal more quickly.

By combining the purifying properties of sodium chloride with the soothing benefits of thermal spring water, Serozinc creates an environment where the skin can regenerate effectively, reducing the visibility of blemishes. The result is clearer, smoother skin, with a noticeable reduction in imperfections.

Make-up fixation

In today’s cosmetics world, multifunctional products are becoming increasingly popular. Serozinc by La Roche-Posay is no exception to this trend, as it can also be used as a make-up-fixing spray.

By using Serozinc as a setting spray, you help to create a barrier between your skin and make-up, which helps to prolong the life of your make-up. This product helps to keep make-up in place throughout the day, avoiding the unpleasant appearance of make-up running or fading. What’s more, Serozinc’s lightweight formulation makes it a perfect option for all-day use. Unlike some setting sprays, which can leave a heavy or sticky feel on the skin, Serozinc leaves a refreshingly light feel, making it a pleasure to use.

Finally, Serozinc’s mattifying effect helps to control excess sebum, which can often be the cause of runny make-up. By controlling excess sebum, this spray not only helps set make-up, but also improves its overall appearance.

How do I use Serozinc?

Using Serozinc by La Roche-Posay is a quick and simple process, but one that can bring considerable benefits to your skin.

Serozinc soothing purifying treatment is specially designed to be applied to superficial skin irritations. Whether it’s redness, excessive shine or blemishes, this product is here to help restore your skin’s balance and health.

  • Application is child’s play. Simply spray Serozinc directly onto the skin from a distance of around 15-20 cm. It’s important to make sure you cover all the areas concerned. Once the product has been applied, allow it to penetrate for a few minutes so that it can take full effect.
  • If excess product remains after this time, it is advisable to gently dab off the excess with a cotton pad. This avoids any unwanted residue and ensures that your skin receives the full benefits of the product.
  • For infants with acne, the approach would be slightly different. Instead of spraying directly onto the skin, it is advisable to spray Serozinc onto a cotton pad and dab gently onto the skin. This allows for a more controlled and gentle application, which is preferable for the sensitive skin of infants.
