Which products are right for me? How to make a conscious choice
Share
With so many skincare products available, it can be difficult to determine what truly suits you. Especially if you want to make conscious choices and avoid accumulating a cupboard full of unused jars. Fortunately, a good skincare routine doesn't have to be complicated—it all starts with understanding what your skin or hair needs.
In this blog we will help you choose step by step, in a calm and clear manner.
Start with your skin or hair, not the product
Many people choose products based on trends or promises. However, it's more effective to first consider:
• how your skin feels (dry, sensitive, balanced?)
• how your hair reacts (dry, lifeless, greasy quickly?)
• when you experience complaints (after showering, during seasonal changes)
By looking at this honestly, you can avoid using products that actually do too much or too little.

Step 1: What does your skin need?
Ask yourself simple questions:
• does your skin often feel tight?
• does your skin react quickly to new products?
• do you use make-up or not?
For dry or sensitive skin, mild products are often a good base.
For many people, this works:
• Argan oil as daily care
• Cactus fig seed oil when you are looking for extra nutrition
• Make-up remover with rose water & argan oil for gentle cleansing

Step 2: Cleanse without overdoing it
Cleansing is often where things go wrong. Overly strong cleansers can throw the skin off balance, especially when used daily.
Soft alternatives such as:
• Ghassoul
• Black soap with argan oil (not daily)
help remove impurities without overstimulating the skin.

Step 3: Also look at your hair and scalp
Many care choices are made for the skin, while hair and scalp are just as important.
For example:
• Argan oil for dry ends
• Ghassoul as a mild cleanser for the scalp
• Kessa glove (for body only, not for hair)
Step 4: Keep it organized
A conscious routine doesn't have to have many steps. For many people, this is enough:
1. Gentle cleaning
2. Light care
3. Occasionally deepen (mask or scrub)
By using fewer products, you also learn better how your skin reacts.
There is no such thing as a 'perfect product'
What works for one person might feel different for another. Conscious choice means:
• use small amounts
• add one product at a time
• give your skin and hair time to respond
Care isn't about perfection, it's about attention.
