COMBINATION SKIN
Combination skin includes areas that are dry as well as oily—with the T-zone commonly being oily, and the cheeks being either dry or normal. This skin type can vary during different seasons of the year, and due to various factors, such as stress or hormone fluctuation. Effective cleansing and hydration are key to care for skin that's oily or normal in some places and dry in others.
NOTE: This is just a guide, you are advised to select products that are targeted towards your skin concern
STEP 1: OIL CLEANSER (PM )
We believe that the most important step in skin care is cleansing.
If skin waste and sebum are not washed thoroughly and allowed to accumulate in the pores, they can cause skin inflammation. The role of cleansing oil is to help remove waste from the skin through gently dissolving and emulsifying wastes.
BOJ chose Glycine Soja oil as a base because they found it's the lightest yet effective to remove skin dirt, sebum and makeup residue. This cleansing oil also contains ginseng seed oil that offers subtle grassy scent to present more calm and peaceful cleansing time.
Key ingredients
Soybean oil 50%
This is a skin-friendly oil extracted from Glycine Soja consisting of oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid. It gently dissolves wastes without clogging the skin pores and, at the same time, acts as a conditioning agent to smooth the skin.
Ginseng seed oil 0.1%
Ginseng seed oil helps to protect the skin from external stimuli. In addition, its unique healthy and cozy grass scent helps you enjoy cleansing more comfortably.
STEP: FOAMING CLEANSER
A refreshing morning cleanser.
Wake up your skin with the Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser. This super refreshing gel cleanser is the wakeup call your skin needs to feel fresh and ready for the day. The gentle yet effective formula contains ingredients the refine the skins texture, as well as clarifying and removing impurities from the complexion. The low pH helps to restore the skin’s optimal pH level, protecting it from external aggressors.
STEP 4: EXFOLIATE (2-3 TIMES WEEKLY)
If radiant, glowing, smooth skin that accepts products more easily is appealing to you, you’ll want to exfoliate regularly. Exfoliation helps to remove surface dead skin cells and encourage cell turnover. It can benefit all skin types and concerns as it helps to even out skin tone, address hyperpigmentation, smooth our skin texture, and remove dead skin to prevent dirt and oils from getting clogged within the pores. Morning is an excellent time to do this. If you exfoliate in the evening, your skin will renew and rejuvenate overnight, causing some of your efforts to be lost.
To use: After cleansing, on wet skin, apply a dime sized amount of product to your hands. Gently massage over the face, paying close attention to sensitive areas as well as areas that are often overlooked (jawline, around the nose, etc.). Don’t do it aggressively as this can cause irritation very quickly and hurt your skin more than it helps.

We recommend the A'pieu Madecassoside Cream. This lightweight skin-repairing and hydrating cream from A'pieu fast became an international favourite after debuting. Perfect for all skin types that need soothing, healing and brightening without any heaviness.
STEP 8: SPF
What’s one non-negotiable skin care product? It’s SPF, of course! No skin type is exempt from applying sunscreen. This step is crucial to prevent premature ageing and keep your skin protected against sun damage. For combination skin, first add a layer of nourishing serum and then top it off with a light, sunscreen. Use an SPF that is 30+++ or higher. And make sure it’s broad-spectrum for maximum protection.
