What Is Sulfur?
Sulfur is a yellow natural mineral found very widely in nature that has taken pride of place in various beauty rituals throughout history. In the world of cosmetics and personal care it is a powerful ingredient often chosen for balancing and purifying oily skin in particular. Used at high purity in the Lacinia brand's meticulously prepared formulas, sulfur gives considerable support to the skin achieving a fresh, soft and clear appearance. This valuable mineral offered by the earth helps the skin find its natural balance, becoming an indispensable cosmetic part of your beauty routine.
Benefits in Skincare
Sulfur gently absorbs the excess sebum (skin oil) that builds up on the skin's surface, mattifying and refreshing the skin beautifully. By helping to purify the pores it lets the skin achieve a far smoother, more refined texture. With regular use it revitalises the look of the skin and offers a wonderful cosmetic contribution.
- By balancing excess oiliness and shine in the skin, it offers a matte, clean and fresh appearance that lasts all day.
- It clears dirt, oil and cosmetic residue from the pores, supporting the skin being cleared of roughness and revitalising it instantly.
- By softening the skin's texture, it creates a far brighter, clearer, more even-toned and refreshed skin structure.
How Is It Used?
For Lacinia products containing sulfur to give maximum benefit, they must always be applied to clean skin cleared of dirt and make-up. You can readily bring sulfur cosmetic products in soap, cleansing gel or clay mask format into your regular care routine a few times a week. Apply the product to your face or body with gentle circular massaging movements, leave for the stated time and then rinse thoroughly with plenty of lukewarm water. After using sulfur, do not forget to support your skin with a light, water-based Lacinia moisturiser suited to your skin type in order to maintain your skin's moisture balance, nourish and relieve it.
Who Can Use It?
Sulfur is one of the most ideal cosmetic components in particular for oily, combination, highly shine-prone skin types and those with the appearance of enlarged pores. Anyone who complains of their skin shining during the day because of excess oiliness and who wants a far more matte, smooth, balanced and refreshed complexion can safely benefit from this unique mineral's deeply cleansing and purifying power.
Points to Keep in Mind
Because sulfur can by its nature have a sebum-absorbing, mattifying cosmetic effect, people with very dry, dehydrated or sensitive skin types are advised to set the frequency of use carefully and to moisturise their skin additionally after using the product. During application, contact with very thin, delicate areas such as the eyes and eye area should be avoided; in case of contact, rinse with plenty of lukewarm water.
