The Fundamentals of Skin Care

Dubois Beauty is based on a holistic, health-focused approach to the skin. Our line is based on four fundamental pillars.

Dubois Beauty Cleanser

Gentle Exfoliation

The process of exfoliation involves the gentle removal of dead skin cells. As we age, the cell turnover rate slows down, resulting in a buildup of dull, dry skin. By exfoliating regularly, we can eliminate this layer of dead skin cells, revealing a fresher, more hydrated complexion. Gentle exfoliation helps dissolve the intercellular lipids that bind dead skin cells to the surface, promoting a smoother texture and reducing the appearance of fine lines and discoloration.

Skin Preservation

To protect our skin from damage caused by free radicals and inflammation, it is crucial to incorporate antioxidants into our skincare routine. Free radicals, often triggered by external factors, can harm our DNA and accelerate the aging process. By using products rich in antioxidants, we can counteract these damaging effects and maintain healthier, more resilient skin.

Skin Stimulation and Repair

Restoring the skin's vitality involves stimulating and repairing its cellular functions. Controlled injury techniques, along with the infusion of essential nutrients such as proteins and amino acids, can stimulate the regeneration and renewal of collagen and elastin. By addressing the damage caused by both intrinsic and extrinsic aging factors, we can rebuild and strengthen the skin's structure, leading to a healthier skin barrier.

Hydration and Sun Protection

Proper hydration and adequate sun protection are essential for maintaining youthful-looking skin. As we age, our skin tends to become drier due to decreased estrogen levels. To counteract this, we should prioritize keeping our skin cells hydrated and plump, preventing dehydration and maintaining a smooth and soft texture. Avoiding harsh cleansers and using moisturizers that are rich in moisture-binding ingredients can help replenish and nourish the skin. Additionally, it is crucial to choose a daytime moisturizer that includes sun protection factors to safeguard against collagen and elastin degradation as well as hyperpigmentation.

For sun protection, we recommend Coola for safe, broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen.
