Understanding and preserving your skin's pH
What is pH?
On the surface of the epidermis, a hydrolipidic film protects your skin. Its pH, naturally slightly acidic (between 4.5 and 6.5 ), plays a crucial role: it maintains the skin flora in balance, slows the proliferation of pathogenic microorganisms and preserves the skin's suppleness and hydration.
When this pH becomes unbalanced (too low or too high), the skin barrier loses its effectiveness. Redness, tightness, excessive shine, or blemishes may then appear.
At Euforia , each formula is developed with precise pH control to restore and maintain this essential balance, whatever your skin type.
Choose the right pH according to your skin type
Dry skin ( pH very acidic, less than 4)
Dry skin usually has a thin texture, feels tight, and develops wrinkles and fine lines more quickly.
Look for products with a pH above 5 (slightly alkaline or alkaline) to strengthen the skin barrier and preserve your skin's moisture.
Oily skin (alkaline pH, greater than 5.5)
Oily skin typically has imperfections, enlarged pores, and persistent shine.
Look for products with a pH of 4.5 or lower, and 5 (more acidic) to regulate sebum and limit imperfections.
Normal to combination skin ( Ideal pH, between 4.5 and 5)
Normal to combination skin types do not have any particular problems, sometimes a slight shine on the T-zone.
Look for products with a pH between 4.5 and 6 (versatile range) that are suitable for both slightly dry and slightly oily skin.
Mature skin
Look for products with a pH between 5 and 7 that target loss of firmness, dullness, and increased dryness. They provide overall support to the skin while preserving its comfort and balance.
