Seborrhoea Sicca: Understanding the paradoxical skin condition
Seborrhoea Sicca (dry oily skin) is often the result of a genetic predisposition combined with a disturbed barrier function. While the sebaceous glands are working at full speed, the skin surface lacks the lipids necessary to bind moisture. The result: sebum accumulates under a thick layer of dead skin cells, leading to blemishes, while the skin simultaneously becomes dehydrated.
Conventional products for oily skin are often counterproductive here, as they dry out the skin too much and exacerbate the feeling of tightness. If you are looking for products for dry oily skin, you need to adopt a strategy that combines clarification with intensive hydration.
The right routine for dry oily skin
Step 1: Deep pore cleansing without drying out
The goal is to loosen the sticky sebum film without attacking the acid mantle.
- Gentle cleansing: Use the Deep Skin Cleanser. It unclogs pores, while the Deep Skin Tonic soothes and refreshes the skin.
Step 2: Loosen calluses (keratolysis)
The “armor layer” must be removed so that the sebum can drain away and active ingredients can penetrate.
- Organic exfoliation: Youth Agrum is the star product for this skin type. It gently dissolves dead cells in an organic way without irritating the skin with mechanical granules.
Step 3: Moisturize, don't grease
The skin cries out for water, but often cannot tolerate heavy oils.
- Thirst quenchers: The oil-free Fibra Gel or Hyaluronic Booster are ideal for immediately relieving tension.
- Lightweight sealing: The Moisturizing Mousse or Soft Regeneration 1 offer perfect protection without clogging the pores.
Why physiological care wins with seborrhea sicca
Our seborrhea sicca products work biomimetically. This means they mimic the skin's natural functions. Instead of just treating symptoms superficially, they help dry, oily skin to rebuild its barrier independently. Once the protective layer is intact again, excessive sebum production subsides and the painful feeling of tightness gives way to a new suppleness.
