Pennywort and horsetail – good for the skin

On the one hand, healthy skin underlines our beauty, on the other hand, it fulfills important functions for our entire organism: It protects our body from external influences, is an important sensory organ and plays a part in regulating our body temperature and water balance. Doing something good for your own skin is therefore much more than just cosmetics. For this reason, our pennywort and horsetail capsules are both: a contribution to the preservation of your skin and an all-round package to supply your skin with important nutrients.

Do you know the six skin types?

One of the most important factors in protecting your skin is avoiding too much UV exposure. However, not all skin reacts in the same way when exposed to sunlight. Depending on the reaction of the skin to the UV radiation and based on some external characteristics, a total of six skin types are distinguished:

Type I ("Celtic type"): very light skin, freckles, light eyes, reddish-blond hair - extremely sensitive to sunlight, usually gets sunburned

Type II (“Nordic type”): light skin, light eyes, light hair – sensitive to sunlight, often sunburns

Type III ("mixed type"): medium-light skin, brown hair, light or dark eyes - sometimes sunburns

Type IV (“Mediterranean type”): tan skin, dark eyes, dark brown or black hair – not very sensitive to sunlight, rarely gets sunburn

Type V (“dark skin type”): dark skin and dark eyes, black hair – reacts little to sunlight, rarely gets sunburn

Type VI (“black skin type”): black skin and hair, dark eyes – reacts little to sunlight, very rarely gets sunburn

What skin type do you belong to? Your dermatologist can help you determine your skin type.
