Well today you are in luck, as we explore Dr. Hauschka’s easy-to-use self-help personalised day and night care skin care regimes guide that is carefully tailored to different skin conditions.
SKIN CONDITIONS INSTEAD OF SKIN TYPES
Dr. Hauschka does not use the term ‘skin types’ as every person is different and understands that you and your skin cannot be rigidly pigeon-holed. You need the right care concepts for different days and places, different seasons and different stages of life therefore they refer to skin conditions, which appear and disappear, rather than fixed skin types.
