Scalp Reset Launch Kit

A pimple is a normal inflammatory response to substances that cause acne bacteria. This is usually a hair follicle with a sebaceous gland that gets clogged with dirt and sebum. Result: there is a swelling with pus, or a red pimple.

There are three main causes:

1. The overproduction of sebum or sebum. From puberty, hormonal disruption can cause an excess of sebum.
2. Clogged pores by cleaning too little and not deep enough. The accumulation of dead skin cells and fatty acids causes a strong increase in, among other things, the Cutibacteria Acnes.
3. An overgrowth of these acne bacteria results in irritation and inflammation

"Help, I have pimples." The best product against pimples is simply to clean very well. Preferably twice a day and as deeply as possible. Why clean:

1. Your skin has a lipid layer. Compare it to a kind of varnish that is over your skin. A protective layer of fat. It is absolutely not done for that layer to use a watery soap with foam. Such a product disrupts protection and causes an overproduction of sebum.
2. By dry cleaning your skin and washing away dead skin cells, you prevent clogging of the pores and the overgrowth of acne bacteria.
3. Restore your skin flora with a dose of antibacterial ingredients. These counteract the overgrowth of acne bacteria and make way for healthy, radiant skin.

For Oy, the daily beauty routine can be even shorter. The Oy Acne Prone Skin is a cleanser, toner, hydration and make-up remover in one jar.

Sweat is natural and normally odorless. Is there still a strong sweat smell? Then the solution is to simply eliminate odor-causing bacteria. Let Oy Deo Wash's antibacterial gel act for one minute and regain control over these annoying bacteria. It is very important to wear fresh clothes. Because, once these bacteria settle in your clothes, you can't even get them out with washing. They like to thrive in a moist, warm environment.

It's not the wet armpits that cause the smell of sweat. Sweat only 'stinks' once it comes into contact with specific bacteria on the skin's surface. If you remove these bacteria, you can actually sweat without smelling bad. Even dried sweat can start smelling again. Wash your clothes sufficiently and choose fresh clothes every day.

Nature harbors many irritating substances. Natural does not always mean 'good' or 'healthy'. It is therefore very important to make the right choice in terms of ingredients and their doses. Now take Sodium bicarbonate or baking soda popularly called. This affects bacteria, but unfortunately also affects the acidity or pH of our skin, which is irritating and not healthy at all. Essential oils are seen as natural odor masks, but contain many allergens. Conclusion: the best combination is a deodorant with a vegetable base that is safe, pure and antibacterial.

The best natural sweat odor deodorant is one that eliminates odor-causing bacteria. How well a deodorant works depends on the composition of the skin microbiome. Is there an overgrowth of many bacteria? Then a natural deodorant based on disinfectant sage or other herbs will not suffice. Then opt for a deodorant with an antibacterial effect.

No conclusive research has yet been done on whether aluminum is harmful. But a deodorant with aluminum salts closes your glands and makes you sweat less. That doesn't exactly sound natural. Sweating is natural and it is healthy. By slowing down perspiration, you will sweat in other places and you can get sweaty hands or sweaty feet.

A deodorant and antiperspirant are leave-on products and therefore stick to your skin all day long. Do you have another one with aluminum salts? These close off the sweat glands and then the bacteria grow on the skin surface. Sweating is healthy. It's the nasty smell that bothers. The rinse-off Oy Deo Wash with its safe antibacterial effect works as a deodorant and can therefore also be used on young children.

Sweaty feet are not always smelly feet per se. That is why you need to take good care of your feet every day. The three causes of smelly feet are:

1. moisture: therefore change your shoes and stockings regularly. Choose natural materials such as leather shoes and woolen or organic cotton stockings.
2. warmth: opt for good, high-quality shoes, preferably with a leather lining. Avoid plastic. Walk barefoot or in open flip-flops as much as possible at home.
3. bacteria and fungi: wash your feet daily with a product with an antibacterial and antifungal effect. Make sure you dry yourself well afterwards. Especially between the toes.

Feet have a thicker layer of dead skin cells. The ideal breeding ground for bacteria. Fungi mainly develop between the toes. But, the bacteria that causes the unpleasant cheese smell? The Corynebacterium causes pitted soles or pitted keratolysis.

Your genetic predisposition and your skin microbiome determines whether or not you are prone to smelly feet. Daily foot care with the antimicrobial Oy Deo Scrub is the best way to prevent infections. Only using an anti-fungal spray is not enough because it unfortunately does not eliminate the bacteria.

The Oy Deo Scrub scrubs away the bacteria that live in the hair with fine grains of sand. This way the armpit is clean and the antibacterial substances can work well. On the sole of the foot, the scrub removes dead skin cells and cleanses the skin between the toes. The 'gel to milk' based on glycerin and oil moisturizes and cares for.

Yes! The active substances in the Oy Deo Scrub have an antifungal effect. Fungus mainly develops between the toes and nails and exfoliating with fine grains of sand is very effective there. The use of medicines such as antifungal creams can be reduced with the Deo Scrub.

Certainly not the ideal solution. If you do, make sure you only dry out the pimple itself. Drying out the skin means that your skin barrier has to make even more oil to restore the lipid layer.

No. A pimple is an inflammation and scrubbing hard can spread the inflammation under the skin. A weekly gentle scrub can help purify your skin and remove dead skin cells. Little to no dead skin cells equals less chance of acne

It is true that hormonal changes cause an overproduction of sebum and oilier skin. Stress at work or due to an exam period leads to more acne formation.

A blackhead is the precursor of a pimple and can be black or white. A blackhead turns black due to the influence of oxygen. The whiteheads are pores that don't get any oxygen at all due to clogging and where acne bacteria overgrowth gets the upper hand.

You do this by removing the blockage and 'disinfecting' it. Deep cleaning is therefore the message. After all, dirt due to pollution, make-up and too greasy creams are the cause of blockage. Removing the blockage makes the acne bacteria less likely to overgrow.

Definitely. Oy Face Wash perfectly removes make-up, including waterproof eye make-up. This anti-blemish face wash has been tested for eye irritation by ophthalmologists and approved as a make-up remover. Fun fact: the standard micellar water is mostly water with tiny oil droplets. We choose anhydrous formulas and do not dilute our fine, dry oils with water. Which works great to remove your makeup.

Oy has no pH value because she has no water in the formulas. This protects the natural, rather acidic pH of the skin. A watery soap with foam raises the pH value, after which a toner is needed to restore our acid mantle. The pH value indicates whether a product is acidic or basic (soapy). The acid mantle protects the skin against cold, heat, bacteria and the penetration of harmful substances.

Our skin microbiome is the collaborative organism of millions of organisms that live on your skin. They work together via a very ingenious system in the different skin layers with their own function. That composition is partly genetically determined. Do you struggle with skin problems such as redness, pimples, eczema or dry skin? Then there is a chance that their cooperation is disrupted by overgrowth or by pathogenic microbiota.

Take care of your skin! A healthy skin flora with a lot of diversity is an absolute must for healthy skin. You can boost the balance of your ecosystem by being in nature, hugging family and friends, giving your dog a hug. A healthy mix of harmless microbes restores your skin barrier.

The basis of the best facial cleansing starts with a thorough cleansing. Choose a water and foam-free face wash based on glycerine and nourishing oils. It restores your epidermis by gently cleansing and soothing. This way all your impurities are removed and your skin is pure and healthy again. Avoid cleansers with water and/or foam. Water alone does not dissolve grease and make-up and can contain salts, lime and chlorine. Foam removes the protective layer of fat and disrupts your skin flora.

Ideally, you cleanse your skin twice a day:

• In the morning after getting up to wash away dead skin cells and leftover sebum. This way you prevent impurities and the active substances of your day care are better absorbed.
• In the evening before going to sleep to limit damage caused by, for example, make-up, pollution and leftover cream. Cleanse as deeply as possible so that your skin can fully recover at night.

A toner is the first facial care after cleansing with classic soap and restores the acidity of your skin barrier. A cleanser purifies the skin by removing dead skin cells, sebum, pollution and remnants of cream. The Oy Face Wash is a strong all-in-one effect where you absolutely no longer need toner because the acidity (pH) is not changed by Oy. The active ingredients strengthen the skin barrier and moisturize sufficiently.

1. Deep cleaning with a cleanser
2. Toner (only needed after a water-based soap and foam)
3. Serum
4. Hydration
5. Extra during the day: sun protection

For Oy, the daily beauty routine can be even shorter. The Daily Boost is a cleanser, toner, hydration and de-maquillant in one jar. The ingredients owe their efficiency to the texture in which they are processed.

The skin ages due to a reduction in collagen, too little hydration and damage from pollution and the sun. The best response to this is with an anti-aging product that strongly hydrates and deeply cleanses so that cells can fully renew themselves. Oy is a real timesaver: cleans like a soap and cares like a mask.

After the age of 30, collagen production decreases and your skin begins to age. Skin experts agree: sun damage is one of the main causes of premature skin aging. Therefore, also protect yourself against the sun in winter. Hydrate adequately: the best anti-aging remedy. Continue deep cleaning to remove pollution and dirt. Those three things guarantee an anti-aging treatment. Every day again.

Collagen is a body protein and is produced by fibroblasts. It is part of connective tissue such as your bones and skin. Collagen Type 1 is mainly found in the skin and provides firmness and elasticity there. Collagen is a large molecule and therefore difficult to penetrate into the deeper skin layers through creams. What does work is the stimulation of the production of skin's own collagen. With Oy Daily Boost we work specifically on the elimination of exhausted fibroblasts, namely senescent or zombie cells. As a result, there is more room for healthy fibroblasts that produce collagen.

Dry skin is the opposite of oily skin and it all has to do with the protective and crucial layer of fat. When you use a watery soap with foam and mousse, this layer of fat is unfortunately washed away. Then the skin must be nourished with lipids in the form of vegetable oils. Dehydrated skin is dehydrated and needs hydration. Then a care with glycerin is the best go-to. This ingredient ensures that skin cells retain moisture. Glycerin can be found in every Oy product.

Oy consciously chose safe ingredients and is approved for use by pregnant women and premature babies. Our Hand Hygiene is therefore particularly safe and perfect to use with small children. The Oy Hand Hygiene does not contain alcohol. There is therefore no risk of irritated eyes, poisoning and is not flammable.

With an antibacterial hand gel you can disinfect your hands when there is no water or soap nearby. Ideal for when you are on the move. A hand gel inhibits the growth of microbes and thus reduces the risk of contamination.

A standard medical alcohol gel contains up to 80% alcohol. Unfortunately, alcohol evaporates very quickly, therefore loses its effectiveness and dries out the skin especially strongly. After disinfecting with alcohol, be sure to use a restorative hand cream to limit drying. Don't you work in the medical environment? Then it is better to opt for an alcohol-free hand gel for hand disinfection that contains other substances with a long-lasting effect. Oy Hand Hygiene disinfects, hydrates and restores. The 2-in-1 solution that makes hands silky soft.

Dry skin craves a restored lipid barrier, and especially hydration. Squalane from olive oil can then have a very soothing effect and is quickly absorbed by the skin. Dry oils rich in essential fatty acids also strongly nourish your skin and restore the cell structure by, for example, producing the skin's own ceramides. Oy Hand Hygiene contains all these active substances and is excellent against irritation and itching. Also for fissures and eczema.

The cold and the wind, wash your hands several times with soap and water. Hands have to endure a lot every day, they dry out easily and retain moisture less well. Then a good restorative hand cream is a wonderful blessing. Restore the lipid layer of the skin barrier with skin's own oils such as Squalane. Choose a hand cream with moisturizing ingredients and you will have healthy and elastic skin again in no time. Oy Hand Hygiene disinfects, moisturizes and restores. The 2-in-1 solution that makes hands silky soft.
