MY DNA CHOICES. likes

If you struggle with oily skin and want to control the slick and T-shine without compromising your moisture content. Heredity (your genetics) is a key factor in oily skin. Hormones, over-cleansing, a humid climate, and a high glycemic diet can all make oily skin worse. If you have overactive sebaceous glands that over-produce sebum (sebum = your own skin oil) you probably also struggle with breakouts. Controlling oily skin not only lessens the daily shine but also helps to reduce breakouts.

Hero ingredients

Zinc PCA
Skin personal assistant

If you have oily skin or suffer from breakouts, Zinc PCA is your superstar assistant. Zinc PCA helps to regulate your oil production and combat P.acnes. Just so you know, P.acnes is the bacteria that causes acne. The effectiveness of SKOON.’s Zinc is boosted by combining it with a ‘pilot’ molecule. This pilot molecule is naturally present in the skin and guides Zinc to the right target cells for the best results. Talk about the best blend of nature and science!

Kalahari Melon Seed Oil
African desert secret

Kalahari Melon Seed Oil is the “new beauty kid on the block”. Maybe not so new:) – this A-beauty ingredient has been used for over 4,000 years by the San people of the Kalahari. The San grinds the seeds filled with 50% oil into a paste and uses it to protect their skin against the harsh desert elements. Kalahari Melon Seed Oil is jam-packed with nourishing nutrients, antioxidants, and vitamins. It contains up to 70% essential fatty acids including Omega 6 (Linoleic Acid) as well as natural Vitamin E. Easy to see why this golden desert liquid is such a revered ancestral beauty secret.

Quora Noni
Microbiome-communication hacker

One of the major skin conditions associated with an imbalance in the skin’s microbiome is acne. Essentially the bad bacteria communicate with each other via “quorum sensing”. This results in an overgrowth of the bad bacterial strains including P.acnes. which causes acne. Quora Noni – a cell culture lysate from the Noni plant - acts to block the communication channels between the microorganisms of the skin. This help to prevent the overgrowth of the baddies. Hacking has never been so good for the skin.
