Frequently Asked Questions
Proper skincare always includes both cleansing and toning. Cleansing removes the impurities found on the skin while toning restores the skin’s natural pH level and helps tighten the pores.
What causes skin aging and how can I slow it down
Skin aging is triggered by both internal and external factors. Some internal factors are genetic and cannot be influenced while others result from the natural aging of the body which we can only slow down. External factors such as stress smoking and poor diet can also accelerate aging but lifestyle changes can help reduce these effects. One of the most frequently mentioned contributors is ultraviolet radiation from the sun which causes significant damage in the skin. This is why it is important to protect the skin with suitable sun protection whenever you are exposed to sunlight.
Why do I need both a day cream and a night cream
Different needs arise at different times of day. During the day the focus is on protecting the skin from environmental stress and maintaining hydration. At night the goal is to repair damage soothe the skin and nourish it. JimJams Beauty offers targeted skincare solutions for every time of day to support the skins needs.
What causes oily facial skin
Hormonal changes and stress can lead to overactive sebaceous glands which begin to produce more oil than normal. This excess sebum mixes with dead skin cells and impurities on the skin clogging pores and preventing the skin from breathing properly. As a result blackheads and pimples can develop.
How can I treat acne properly
The most important step is to use a suitable cleanser that allows the skin to breathe removes excess sebum and helps calm inflammation.
We recommend JimJams Clean and Matt black soap. Its active ingredients support clear calm and soft skin. With regular use it reduces pore blockage and helps prevent blackheads and later breakouts.
Can I use an exfoliating product if I have oily skin
Yes. Regular exfoliation is recommended for every skin type. Removing dead skin cells reduces the chance of clogged pores which helps prevent breakouts.
JimJams Beauty tropical SPA exfoliator was developed specifically for this purpose. Its gentle scrubbing action removes dead cells while its minerals absorb excess sebum and impurities leaving the skin with a matte finish.
Does oily skin need hydration
Yes every skin type needs proper hydration to maintain optimal moisture balance. With the help of an activating gel the skin receives the moisture it needs and becomes more receptive to active ingredients.
How does dry skin develop
Dryness appears when the hydrophilic lipid barrier which is made up of water and oils is missing or reduced. Dry skin is always associated with a lack of surface hydration because low oil levels allow the skins moisture to evaporate more easily.
How can I care for my tight dry skin effectively
To restore dry skin you must focus on two things. First replace the lost moisture then restore the oily layer on the surface to help keep that moisture inside. Avoid drying products such as alcohol based cleansers as they strip the skin of its protective oils and weaken its natural defenses. In winter it is useful to switch to richer creams or even use a night cream during the day.
