Skincare for oily skin
Having your skin cells be in an alkaline environment will help them regulate oil production. Within an alkaline environment our cells have more Oxygen, are more hydrated and have increased energy. This will help your cells perform their required functions at their best.
Oily skin can be caused by products that irritate the skin which causes overproduction of oil in areas. We formulate our products with a focus on being allergy free to minimise the chances of irritation.

ALKALINE skincare benefits for oily SKIN
At Sönd, we believe that our bodies (and our cells) are healthiest in an alkaline state. Sönd's alkaline skincare products work to keep our skin cells in their natural pH range, where they can function at their best.
More hydrated
A higher pH means there is more oxygen within a liquid. This increased Oxygen allows our cells to absorb more water.
Regulate Oil Production
Healthy cells can regulate their oil production more effectively helping skin maintain your desired complection.
Healthier skin
Cells have more energy at a higher pH which allows them to regenerate more effectively producing fresher looking skin.
what does ALKALINE skincare mean?
The concept of Alkaline may sound confusing but its quite simple, Alkaline refers to the pH level. While most skin care products have a lower pH of around 5.5, our range of products have a pH of 7.3 which is just slightly higher than water which has a neutral pH of 7.
start your 6 week skin transformation
While you may see dramatic differences to your skin in a shorter space of time, we know that 6 weeks is when you'll really see the change in your skin.
The Sönd products work best when used together. This is because most skincare today are acidic, and may disrupt the process of our products.
With this in mind, we've created some great value packages (like the Day & Night Duo below), so that our customers can get the best results!

Having oily skin can be a nightmare. Your face can often appear greasy and shiny and have an almost reflective effect. Your pores might be enlarged and you might suffer from blackheads around the T-zone and breakouts on other areas of the face. You might also struggle with makeup because it often slides down the skin. All in all, it is not a pleasant experience. You might not have identified as having oily skin in the past, so you might not have reached the conclusion that you need to find a good oil-free moisturiser, or even an oil-free body moisturiser. Understanding your skin type, however, and what it needs to look its best is the key to finding the best oil-free moisturiser.
What Makes Skin Oily?
Within our skin, we all have sebaceous glands which are designed to release sebum, an oil that protects the skin from drying out. Sebum is also partly responsible for the removal of dead skin cells and dirt from our pores. Oily skin overproduces sebum, which is why the surface of the skin appears oily and is more prone to blemishes because the pores are often blocked with the oil. It is easy to see why those with this skin type would need an oil-free face moisturiser. The last thing you would want to do is apply more oil to the skin, right? It is still essential, however, that you do keep moisturising. Read on to find out why.
How do I care for my oily skin?
You should cleanse twice daily to remove excess oil. Even if you notice oil on the surface of your skin during the day, do not be tempted to wash it. Removing sebum too often can encourage the skin to produce even more. Once you have cleansed, apply an oil-free moisturiser for oily skin. This is essential as oily skin can become dehydrated, so you do need to lock moisture in still. It is, however, important that your moisturiser is oil-free as applying a moisturiser free from oil as opposed to an oil-based version means that you are not clogging the pores up with even more oil which might encourage breakouts. You could also use a face mask once a week to draw out some of the extra oil and also consider not using heavy cosmetics that can block the pores and trap the oil in the skin.
What Is the Best Moisturiser to Use?
A moisturiser such as Midnight Feast Night Cream from Sönd is lightweight so it won’t clog up the pores even further. It can satisfy all the hydration needs of oily skin without trapping in any excess oil. The cream also includes silica as one of its key ingredients, which really works to nourish the skin and treat those nasty additional symptoms that arise when you are struggling with oily skin. This moisturiser is perfect for everyone who needs a moisturiser with little oil - even for those looking for an oil-free moisturiser for dry skin.
