The age-old question begs, ‘when does anti-aging skincare start?’
If you start too early, you risk weighing your skin down with heavy, anti-aging creams and potentially harmful actives that your skin isn’t ready for. If you start too late, well…
But OxygenCeuticals has the answer! Anti-aging starts now!
With the use of super gentle, super effective ingredients, OxygenCeuticals’ beloved ReGenon Rewind Collection is just what you need to prevent signs of aging from appearing!
Let’s learn a bit more!
What is ReGenon?
Regenerate + Idebenone = ReGenon
OxygenCeuticals’ ReGenon Line is powered by super-antioxidant, Idebenone.
This new, premium anti-aging line relies on the benefits antioxidants have on the skin.
“Antioxidants may benefit the skin by preventing or slowing aging and cell damage. People consume antioxidants in food and supplements, or they may use antioxidant skin care products.”
Medical News Today
We already know most of our skin’s favorite antioxidants: Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin B…The list goes on. A lot of antioxidants are created naturally, but some can be man-made!
That’s where Idebenone comes in! Idebenone is a synthetic analog for Coenzyme Q10 that is used in skincare formulations to help help reduce the visible signs of aging. This powerful antioxidant has been proven to be at least FOUR TIMES stronger than Vitamin C.
Some of the key benefits of Idebenone include:
Improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Minimizing the effects of free radical damage
Brightening and evening the skin tone
Being sensitive for ALL skin types
All three of the ReGenon products contain this powerful ingredient alongside special formulations of their own. Let’s take a closer look.
There’s nothing more staple to a skincare routine than a serum. The ReGenon Serum is a must-have for anyone looking for dual anti-aging and skin brightening effects.
In addition to 20,000ppm of Idebenone, the ReGenon Serum contains a Superberry Complex, made up of apples, grapes, pomegranates, palm beans, western plums, peaches, and watermelons for added antioxidative power. This botanical mashup works to protect the skin by prevent oxidative stress and building up a defensive barrier against outside toxins and pollutants.
Here’s how to use it!
Apply an appropriate amount to the skin.
Gently tap into the skin until fully absorbed.
Use with ReGenon Cream for enhanced anti-oxidative and hydrating effects.
What could be more important than a skin cream? Our ReGenon Cream is the amazing number two in our anti-aging duo so far.
This cream is ultra light-weight, almost gel-like, in texture. It glides onto the skin and melts like butter into your pores without feeling any heaviness, greasiness, or stickiness. It packs a powerful punch compared to his heavier, anti-aging competitors.
The ReGenon Cream also contains 20,000ppm of Idebenone for that antioxidative power to prevent sun damage, aging, and pollution. However, it also contains a Lactobacillus Complex (made up of Rye Flower, Soy Milk, and Soybean Extract) to provide bonus anti-aging care with its skin smoothing, moisturizing effects. Lastly, its naturally derived Polymer creates a moisture coating film that keeps skin hydrated for longer and keeps pollutants out! This also results is a blurred pore effect that leaves the skin looking and feeling much smoother than before.
To use the ReGenon Cream:
After applying the ReGenon Serum, apply an adequate amount of cream to the skin.
Massage gently into the skin until absorbed.
Layer the product according to your skin type. Dry skin types can apply more than one layer of cream for extra moisture.
Apply TP Sun Cream after use to protect against sun-induced hyperpigmentation.
Finally, let’s welcome our NEWEST ADDITION to the party!
The ReGenon Activator is our brand new addition to the ReGenon Rewind Collection. This is a premium anti-aging ampoule mist that glides onto the skin without heaviness or stickiness.
Formulated with over 980,000ppm of Camella Flower Water, this facial mist is the go-to for quick, easy anti-wrinkle care. Camella Flower Water revitalizes the skin by improving elasticity and controlling sebum production, leaving your skin looking bouncier and more radiant. This mist also contains the powerful Idebenone like its ReGenon sisters. Finally, Lecithin and Avena Strigosa Seed Extract work together to boost skin moisture, build up the skin’s defense layer, and firm up any sagging skin!
This is the perfect boost to any anti-aging skin routine! One spray and your skin is already looking radiant and healthy!
To use the ReGenon Activator:
After washing, spray the mist onto the skin from about 15cm-30cm away.
Pat the ampoule into the skin to fully absorb.
Follow with ReGenon Serum and Cream for intensive antioxidative, anti-aging effect.

Everything seems easier when someone else does the work for you. Sometimes getting together a skincare routine of your own can be frustrating. What kind of products go with what? Does this toner work well with that serum? That cream?
I think that’s why we love skincare kits so much. It saves us the hassle and stress of worrying whether the products will gel the right way together or not.
Luckily, OxygenCeuticals has a very extensive range of skincare kits to choose from. Whether you need a travel-sized kit to take with you on your trips or just want to dip your toe into a product before purchasing the full size, our skincare kits are just the thing for you!
Maybe it’s a silly question, afterall, everyone and their mother has experienced acne at least once before. But do you know what causes it? Well, there are a few different answers.
Generally, acne is a skin condition that occurs when your pores become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. This buildup results in an inflamed, sometimes painful, red bump on the skin. Acne can have different forms, depending on its severity. There are blackheads, whiteheads, papules (small, tender red bumps), pustules (papules but with a whitehead), nodules (large, painful lumps beneath the skin’s surface), and cysts (painful, pus-filled lump underneath the surface).
A common myth about acne is that it’s caused by dirty skin. That’s not always true! Oily skin can be caused by so many different factors, often uncontrollable. Hormonal changes, such as puberty or pregnancy, can lead to acne. High humidity and pressure can also contribute.
Of course, being too rough on your skin might also be the cause! If you’re using harsh skincare ingredients like alcohols or astringents, you might actually be destroying your skin barrier that protects your skin from harmful external factors. Therefore, there’s nothing to keep acne at bay. You’ve got to be gentle with your skin to keep it healthy and safe.
If you have mild or moderately severe acne, you can probably use a few skincare products to heal or treat it. OxygenCeuticals has a lot of great products that can assist!
But, if you’re experiencing very severe, persistent acne, it’s advised that you seek out a dermatologist to find the underlying cause and receive medical treatment.
1. Cleansing
Any good skincare routine starts with cleansing. Keeping your skin clean and fresh is the most basic strategy to keeping acne away. It’s very important to use a cleanser that doesn’t strip your skin of all of its oils. Some of that oil is essential to maintaining skin moisture and health. A gentle, slightly acidic cleanser is the best thing for those who suffer from blemishes.
A gel type of sub-acid cleanser with pH of 5.0. Cleanses sensitive and troubled skin without causing irritation.
This natural, plant-based foaming wash helps to minimize pores while removing impurities, makeup and dirt. Dimethyl Sulfone and Botanical extracts create a rich foam to cleanse while simultaneously delivering essential nutrients to the skin. Its Botanical ingredients are made up of Rehmannia Glutinosa Root Extract, Saururus Chinensis Leaf/Root Extract and Apricot Kernel Extract. These ingredients provide anti-inflammation and antimicrobial effects without stripping the skin.
It’s even been skin irritant patch tested to work perfectly on sensitive skin types, making it a wonderful cleanser for acne as well as dry skin.
To use this cleanser:
Take an adequate amount and lather with water.
Gently apply on the skin and gently rub.
Rinse off with lukewarm water.
Can be used as a stand-alone foaming cleanser if you don’t wear heavy makeup.
If you have more robust skin, you can also try OxygenCeuticals’ Pore Mask. This cleanser has a very thick, rich foam that clears pores and purifies the skin.
2. Toning
After cleansing, you need something to wipe off the last tiny bits of dirt and grime that your cleanser just didn’t catch. Not to mention, there are many toners that provide moisturizing benefits as well as toning.
OxygenCeuticals has a large variety of toners to choose from, but one toner is specially designed to help aid in acne care.
Toner with pH 5.5. Regulates sebum and moisture balance after cleansing. Improves skin texture, moisturizes, and strengthens skin immunity with herbal ingredients
OxygenCeuticals’ Skin Balancing Toner will do exactly as it’s named to do. It will balance the pH of your skin. Most people’s skin has a pH range of 5.4 – 5.9, meaning it’s slightly acidic. This toner has a pH of 5.5. If you’re not using the Purifying Foaming Wash, you could be using a more alkaline cleanser that, while doing a good job of cleansing, may throw off the natural pH of your skin, and lead to a damaged skin barrier.
The Skin Balancing Toner can bring back the pH back down to a healthy level after cleansing, making sure that the pH is exactly where it’s meant to be.
Therefore, it can improve skin texture, restore moisture, and strengthen the skin’s immunity with its herbal ingredients. Plus, it’s gentle enough to be used on sensitive skin!
To use the Skin Balancing Toner:
Soak a cotton pad with the toner.
Wipe along the face to remove impurities while soothing the skin.
Apply in between aesthetic treatments to soothe and hydrate the skin.
If this toner isn’t for you, you can try out one of our other toners!
For soothing and moisturizing care, especially after dermatological procedures, try the D:O2 Activator or the Cryogenic Activator. For irritated, inflamed skin try the Toning Gel.
3. Peeling
Every once in a while, you have to exfoliate your skin. Maybe once or twice a week, depending on your skin type and what products you use. Exfoliating is essential for those who want a brighter, healthier glow on their skin. And that’s because exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells by breaking the bonds that glue them together, allowing new skin cells to rise to the surface.
Exfoliating, or peeling, can also be considered the ‘third-step’ of cleansing. Your exfoliating product can get rid of any of the deeply hidden dirt and debris in your pores that your first two cleansers missed.
OxygenCeuticals has two different type of exfoliating products, both great choices to achieve smoother skin.
Physical exfoliant with pineapple and papaya extracts. Exfoliates dull skin and unclogs pores to remove dead skin cells without causing irritation. Suitable to use on sensitive skin.
The Daily Botanicals Enzyme Peel is a gentle, gommage peel. ‘Gommage’ comes from the French word for ‘erasing’. A gommage peel works by applying a cream or paste to the skin, letting it sit for a minute or so, and then rubbing the product into the skin. When rubbed, the product will curl up into little balls that resemble something like pencil shavings, taking your dead skin along with it.
Most gommage peels contain enzymes which act as the exfoliating agents. The Daily Botanicals Enzyme Peel contains Pineapple and Papaya enzymes and extracts to exfoliate dull skin and unclog pores gently.
The inclusion of Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract works to protect the skin with its antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. This helps to make the product suitable for even very sensitive or acne prone skin.
After using it, your skin will feel softer and smoother, and over time, if done consecutively, dark spots and acne scars will begin to fade as dead skin cells are removed and new skin cells are pushed to the surface.
To use the peel:
After toner, apply adequate amount onto dry face or neck.
Let sit for about 30 seconds to 1 minute to allow the enzymes to break down dead skin cells.
Gently rub to exfoliate and then rinse with lukewarm water.
Chemical exfoliant that removes dead skin cells effectively with 24.5% AHA and 0.5% BHA. Contains Panthenol which soothes, moisturizes, and reduces inflammation.
The Double Peel is a chemical exfoliant. Chemical exfoliants work differently from gommage peels or traditional physical peels like scrubs.
A chemical peel is a skin exfoliant which a pH of around 2.0. Chemical Peels typically contain acids called AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) and BHAs (Beta Hydroxy Acids). These are chemical exfoliants that remove dead skin cells from the top layer of your skin.
AHAs work by reducing the concentration of calcium ions in the skin which promotes the shedding of surface-level skin cells (If you’ve heard of Glycolic or Lactic Acid, you’ve heard of AHas)
BHAs do much of the same, but they provide antibacterial benefits. One BHA you’re probably already familiar with is Salicylic Acid, commonly used to treat acne.
Chemical Peeling with such acids provide a variety of benefits for our skin. They can reduce fine lines and wrinkles, revive dull skin, remove dark spots, reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, and even improve acne.
This product has an optimum AHA:BHA ratio of 24.5% AHA to 0.5% BHA. It also contains panthenol to soothe, moisturize, and calm inflammation.
To use the Double Peel:
After toner, apply an adequate amount on the skin (avoid the eye areas)
Let sit for 1-2 minutes if you have normal skin, 2-3 minutes for oily skin, and 30 secs – 1 min for senstive skin.
Use once a week, or according to your skin type.
4. Ampoule
You might be wondering, “what is the difference between an ampoule and a serum?” or even “why do I need to use an ampoule in the first place?” Well, an ampoule is essentially a super extra potent serum that targets a specific skin concern. You might only use an ampoule on occasions when your skin feels particularly dry and use a serum twice daily.
OxygenCeuticals’ Fluid Line contains six powerful targeted ampoules that aid in every skin concern. We have one ampoule specifically for acne and blemishes!
A trouble care targeted fluid. Enriched with anti-acne complex to balance sebum secretion and minimize pores to reveal a healthy, dewy look.
This is OxygenCeuticals’ main acne-targeted ampoule. It’s a very gentle solution formulated with Salicylic Acid for mild exfoliation of dead skin cells. It also contains Sodium PCA for maintaining moisture in the skin.
However, its patented ‘Anti-Acne Complex’ made up of Terminalia Chebula Fruit Extract, Caesalpinia Sappan Bark Extract, and Magnolia Obovata Bark Extract relieves skin troubles like acne. These herbal ingredients work to soothe and relieve inflammation on the skin while purifying and controlling sebum production.
To use the Herbal Fluid:
Apply 1-2 drops on clean skin before applying serum/essence.
If you have very sensitive skin, or want to calm down skin redness and inflammation, try the Couperose Fluid or the Ceutisome Stem Formula (as a spot treatment).
5. Serum
Our next step seems obvious! Serum! A skin serum is a light, easily absorbed liquid that you spread on your skin for extra nutrients, moisture, etc. A serum can even have multiple functions! OxygenCeuticals’ line of serums certainly does.
The combination of pure Vitamin C Powder and Vitamin E Serum . Gets rid of excess melanin and strengthens skin barrier, leaving the skin looking healthy and glossy.
If you’re a skincare buff, you probably already know that Vitamin C is a godsend for skin health. While it can be harsh to very sensitive skin types, it’s known to treat hyperpigmentation, acne, dull skin, dry skin, and damaged skin. Vitamin C Serums, much like how Vitamin C tablets protect our immune systems, provide a layer of protection to the skin to prevent damage from free radicals, oxidative stress, and UVA and UVB rays. Vitamin C can lighten pigmentation caused by blemishes and even help to fade acne scars.
OxygenCeuticals’ Serum 12 and Serum 17 are two sizes of the same product. Serum 12 comes with pure vitamin C powder and 30ml of Vitamin E serum. Mixing the two will result in a solution with 12% Vitamin C, hence the name ‘Serum 12’. Serum 17 is much the same but with 17% of Vitamin C and 60ml of solution.
The serums not only contain Vitamin C and E, but also Sodium PCA, a moisturizing factor that hydrates and smooths uneven texture. They also each contain anti-aging ingredient allantoin to sooth and keep skin soft.
To use Serum 12/17:
Mix the Serum 12/17 with the Vitamin C powder.
Shake thoroughly.
Apply 1-2 drops on the skin and pat until fully absorbed.
Vitamin C can irritate very sensitive skin, so it’s best to apply our B5 Gel or Phyto Gel before applying Serum 12/17.
If you think Vitamin C might be too harsh on your skin, try some of our other serums!
For anti-aging care, try the B5 Gel or the Age Defying Essence Forte. For brightening care, try the Phyto Gel. If you want an extra boost of moisture, try our Moisture Aqua Serum. All of these serums can aid in your acne skincare routine along with their other functions!
6. Facial Mask
What fun would skincare be if we couldn’t just plop a mask on our face, get something to drink, and chill on our couch while the mask does its magic?
Depending on the type of mask, it should come either before or after moisturizers. Sheet Masks should come before creams or moisturizers, while clay masks should come before any ampoule or serums.
Let’s see what kind of masks OxygenCeuticals has for those struggling with acne.
It hydrates the skin and controls sebum secretion, preventing greasy skin. Furthermore, it cools down skin temperature in order to soothe flushed skin.
Sheet masks are a staple in Korean skincare, but ours is special. Our Ceutisome CC Mask is made with ultra-soft Bemliese fabric. Made from the long fibers, called linter, around cotton seeds, this fabric absorbs more of the ampoule in the mask and sits on the sit so smoothly that you don’t feel any of the itching or discomfort you might feel with a generic sheet mask.
Moreover, the CC Mask cools and soothes the skin while even controlling sebum production. Xylitol physically cools the skin’s temperature. Overheated skin is often inflamed and irritated. Witch Hazel Extract and 7-White Complex keeps the skin balanced while protecting it from harmful environmental substances.
If you have painful or inflamed acne, use this mask to cool and soothe. You’ll feel instantly refreshed.
To use the Ceutisome CC Mask:
Remove the mask from its package.
Apply the mask on the face.
Leave the mask for 10-20 minutes.
After removing the mask, gently tap the skin to help the remaining serum absorb fully into the skin.
A skin purifying mask that removes excess sebum and dead skin cells while moisturizing skin.
No skincare routine would be complete without a kaolin clay mask, right? OxygenCeutical’s Clarifying Mask is a skin-purifying wash-off mask that delivers unparelled control of excessive sebum while also brightening and soothing the skin.
Containing Tocopheryl Acetate, a form of Vitamin E, this mask can sooth inflamed skin and acne, but also provide anti-oxidative effects that leave the skin looking immediately brighter after just one use.
Kaolin Clay works to control sebum protection and prevent acne formation, while Ceramide provides moisture to the skin. The mask leaves your skin feeling cool and clean after use, and you can literally see improvements in redness immediately.
To use the Clarifying Mask:
Apply evenly to the skin with a brush or spatula.
Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
Wash off the mask with lukewarm water
For extra soothing effects and longer wearability, mix the Clarifying Mask with Toning Gel in a 1:1 ratio before appliability.
7. Cream
So now we’ve finally gotten to the moisturizers. Creams are important in skincare because they’re meant to lock in all the good stuff we just put on, as well as provide their own benefits. You might think that having oily skin means you shouldn’t moisturize or don’t need to. But, actually, if your skin becomes dehydrated, it produces extra sebum to make up for the lack of moisture, making your skin more prone to acne or blemishes.
Here are some creams we recommend for blemished skin!
A soothing cream enriched with 7 types of botanical extracts. Calms redness prone skin and fortifies skin barrier to reveal healthy complexion.
You might be afraid to put on moisturizer if you’ve got oily skin. Some moisturizers make the skin feel even heavier once applied and can make us feel like it’s clogging our pores.
But oily skin needs moisture to balance it out. If your skin is well-watered, then it won’t feel the need to produce as much oil. The Couperose Cream is a light-weight, all-over moisturizer formulated with 7 types of botanical extracts.
And there’s no need to worry if your skin will react badly. This product has been hypoallergenic tested and proven not to cause any adverse reactions on the skin!
Tomato Fruit/Leaf/Stem extract works to moisturize and regenerate the skin while turnip extract calms and soothes redness. Your skin will be thanking you once you apply this cream. Over time, you’ll see the redness fade away!
If you think the Couperose Cream isn’t for you, then we have other options available! If you want repairative, post-procedure care then try our PP Cream! For anti-aging and brightening care, try the ReGenon Cream. If you want to enhance your skin barrier and have sensitive skin, try the Skin Barrier Ato Cream. And finally, if you want a little bit of after-sun care or soothing care, try our Soothing Aloe Vera Gel!
8. Sun Care
This is the moment of truth. Sun Care is Dark Spot Care. Bottom Line. The number one cause of hyperpigmentation and dark spots is UVA and UVB damage from sun exposure. This means that the sun can make your acne look and feel worse!
So, you’ve got to protect your skin. Remember, the Sun. Is. Not. Your. Friend.
Here’s what OxygenCeuticals has in store for sun protection!
A featherlight daily sunscreen with SPF 50+++. Shields skin from harmful UVA and UVB to prevent premature aging while delivering moisturizing factors to the skin.
This super lightweight sunscreen protects your skin from UVA and UVB sun rays to prevent sun damage like dark spots, sun spots, premature aging, and even more dangerous conditions.
It’s a unique combination of mineral and chemical sun filters to ensure your skin is protected from all angles. This sunscreen absorbs flawlessly into the skin without any white cast or greasiness. It also smells really good (but maybe that’s only important to me).
Let’s not forget its bonus benefits! Vitamin E in the formula protects the skin’s moisture barrier and keeps nasty environmental hazards from sticking to the skin. Hyaluronic Acid keeps the skin hydrated and Allantoin soothes and calms skin. Sounds like the perfect formula for a summer sunscreen.
To use the TP Sun Cream:
Apply an adequate amount to the skin. (Try two fingerlengths of cream, or a teaspoon amount)
Use a the final step in your daily skincare routine.
Water-resistant sunscreen ideal for outdoor activities or sports. Provides both UVA and UVB protection. (Used for both face and body)
If you need a sunscreen with more ‘oomph’, try the Leport’s Sunblock. This sunscreen can be used on both your face and body, so all bases are covered. This waterproof formula is perfect for anyone who plays sports or lives an active outdoor lifestyle.
Completely invisible after application, it’ll provide moisture to your skin as well keep it safe.
Another combination sunscreen with both mineral and chemical filters, it also contains Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin E, and Aloe Vera Leaf Juice Powder for soothing benefits.
To use Leport’s Sunblock:
Apply an adequate amount to the skin (for the face: about two fingerlengths).
Pat it evenly onto the skin until invisible.
For extra sun protection and some skin evening action, try out OxygenCeuticals Intensive Blemish Balm and O2 Cushion as an everyday makeup combo.
9. Skincare Kits
Some of our best products come in the form of sets. I mean, doesn’t everyone love to save money on their skincare? OxygenCeuticals offers several ‘kits’ for various skin concerns, containing two or three products in one package to make it easier for you to organize your own skin regimen.
Here are some of OxygenCeuticals’ best Skincare Kits for acne!
2-steps kit that controls excessive sebum secretion and manages dead skin cells to relieve skin troubles.
This kit comes with everything you need to help clear blemishes. Containing a wintergreen serum and cream targeted to soothes and treat blemishes with minimal irritation.
Wintergreen Extract manages sebum product and keeps pores looking tight and clean, clearing out any of the debris that leads to acne. Dimethyl Sulfone releases sulfur from the skin, helping to purify and cleanse. It also promotes collagen synthesis to fight against skin aging. Niacinamide, of course, inhibits melanin product and prevents acne from leaving marks after its healed. Finally, Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract soothes inflammation, making acne less red and less swollen.
To use the Purifying Kit:
First cleanse the skin with a gentle, subacidic cleanser (Try our Purifying Foaming Wash).
A tailored kit designed to relieve different skincare concerns. This kit includes a powerful ampoule and accompanying booster targeted towards your specific skincare goals along with the Ceutisome Stem Formula, an O2 carrier, to promote maximum absorption.
We love a customized skincare set. Our Ceutisome Trial Kits can be mixed and matched to create the perfect ampoule solution for your specific skin type and skin concern.
The Ceutisome O Trial Kit contains the Ceutisome Oilycom Ampoule, the O-Booster, and the Ceutisome Stem Formula.
The combination of the Oilycom Ampoule and O-Booster helps to relieve acne and achieve healthy skin by soothing and boosting skin renewal activity.
Its three main ingredients all work together for ultimate acne treatment. Tryptophan normalizes the skin regeneration cycle, Citrus Callus Extract provides concentrated treatment care to affected areas, and sh-Oligo peptide-3 enhances the skin protection layer to keep skin safe.
Adding the Stem Formula into the mix ensures maximum absorbtion. The Stem Formula, an O2 carrier, purifies the skin by removing carbon dioxide and supplying oxygen. It also accelerates healing and inhibits signs of aging by activing the metabolism of skin cells.
You can also buy another Trial Kit and mix with the O Trial Kit to get customized results. If you have dry and blemished skin, try mixing with the H Trial Kit. For blemished and pigmented skin, mix with the P Trial Kit. Finally, if you want anti-aging benefits alongside acne care, mix with the W Trial Kit.
To Use the O Trial Kit:
Combine the Booster and Stem Formula together with the Ceutisome Ampoule (pour the booster and stem formula into the ampoule bottle).
Shake well and apply 1/3 of the mixure onto the skin.
For use as an ampoule, pat until fully absorbed.
Apply and then use the MTS Nano Pen for an ampoule infusion treatment at home.
A skin restructuring ampoule with microneedle-like Spicule extracted from marine sponges. Stimulates skin cells turnover without leaving redness or irritation.
One of our newly upgraded products, the Spicule Regentox is skin restructuring ampoule with microneedle-like spicules extracted from marine sponges. These spicules are so small that they are invisible to the naked eye, but they implant themselves into the skin and form microscopic channels. These channels allow for better absorption of product into the skin and boost collagen production.
Since these micro-channels act as tiny skin tears, your skin will amp up its regenerative functions to heal them, meaning more collagen and higher cell turnover for newer, fresher skin.
The Spicule Regentox now contains 6% spicule content for even more regenerative power.
To use the Spicule Regetox:
Apply on areas with fine lines or enlarged pores for better results.
Apply a thin layer onto the skin.
Rub the serum gently until absorbed.
Apply Ceutisome Ampoule Mixture (based on skin concern) afterwards for faster absorption and better results.
If you don’t fancy any of the above options, we have a few more that might work for you! If you have sensitive, redness-prone skin try the CC Starter Kit. If you have to promote skin recovery and turnover, try the SOS PP Kit!
Conclusion
Having acne isn’t the end of the world. Afterall, it’s something that happens to each and every one of us. Whether it’s caused by clogged pores or hormonal changes, it’s nothing to be ashamed of.
We can treat our acne with as many skin products as we want and see results, but the best thing you can do is to treat your skin with a gentle hand. Love the skin you have and you’ll be amazed with the new glow that’ll come to your face.
Skin texture is the condition of the surface of your skin. Textured skin is bumpy, uneven skin that is caused by a buildup of dead skin cells and sebum. Texture can also be caused by acne scarring and aging.
Most people want their skin to look smooth, but texture is a common struggle for many people as it has so many diverse causes. However, texture can be treated with a good skincare routine and healthier lifestyle choices.
Let’s see what OxygenCeuticals recommends for textured skin!
1. Cleansing
You’ve probably heard of double cleansing, the world-wide skincare phenomenon that was born in South Korea. The concept is simple: use an oil-based cleanser as your first step, and then follow it up with a water-based foaming cleanser.
But why? Well, simple soap and water can’t remove oil or oil-based impurities from your skin. Water and oil don’t mix. So, you need an oil-based cleanser to remove that oil-based debris from your skin: like makeup, sunscreen, sebum, and other pollution.
Once you get rid of that entire gunk, your second-step water-based cleanser can reach deeper into the skin and remove dirt, sweat, and grime. Therefore, you get a much more thorough, penetrative cleanse.
A botanical oil-based cleanser for removing makeup from eyes, lips, and face. Cleanses without causing irritation. Good for all skin types including sensitive skin.
OxygenCeuticals’ Double Makeup Remover is cleansing oil that melts away makeup while keeping the skin soft and hydrated. Formulated with Soybean Oil, a natural vegetable oil that contains linoleic acid to help strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier.
Since most makeup and sebum are oil-based, you need an oil to effectively remove them from the skin. A regular foaming cleanser can’t reach that deeply into the pores to clean them out.
The Double Makeup Remover also contains Vitamin E for nourishment and moisture, as well as Korean Dendropanax extracts for firming up and evening out the skin tone.
To use the Double Makeup Remover:
As a makeup remover
Soak cotton pads with appropriate amount of cleanser.
Leave cotton pads on eyes or lips for 10-15 seconds.
Gentle, non-greasy, and non-irritating cleanser with milky texture. Effectively removes makeup and impurities without drying out the skin.
This is a wonderful 1st step cleanser for those who want to double cleanse without drying out their skin. It contains Safflower Seed Oil, Kyounin Yu, and Algin. Safflower Seed Oil contains linoleic acid which helps maintain your skin’s protective barrier and prevents flaking. It offers both occlusive and emollient properties that moisturize and nourish the skin. Algin, also known as alginic acid, is a naturally occurring polymer extracted from brown algae. This makes it an emulsifying agent that helps thicken the product’s texture while providing binding moisture to the skin that doesn’t evaporate away.
To use this cleanser:
Take an appropriate amount and gently rub all over the face.
A foamy cleanser with rich bubbles. Contains Stearic Acid, a natural fatty acid that effectively absorbs and removes impurities.
This foam cleanser is one of our most popular and best-selling products with both retail and professional customers.
Infused with pure Oxygen, the Pore Mask is a fluffy, bubble foam cleanser. Containing Stearic Acid (a natural fatty acid), the cleanser effectively absorbs and removes impurities from pores. Lavender Oil in the formula controls sebum production, which leads to less breakouts and a smoother complexion while Pursley Extracts keep the skin moisturized and soothed from inflammation.
To use the Pore Mask:
Take an adequate amount of cleanser and lather with water.
Gently massage the foam onto your skin.
Rinse with lukewarm water.
Mix with 10-15ml of Cryogenic Activator to create an even thicker, longer-lasting foam.
A gel type of sub-acid cleanser with pH of 5.0. Cleanses sensitive and troubled skin without causing irritation.
This natural, plant-based foaming wash helps to minimize pores while removing impurities, makeup and dirt. Dimethyl Sulfone and Botanical extracts create a rich foam to cleanse while simultaneously delivering essential nutrients to the skin. Its Botanical ingredients are made up of Rehmannia Glutinosa Root Extract, Saururus Chinensis Leaf/Root Extract and Apricot Kernel Extract. These ingredients provide anti-inflammation and antimicrobial effects without stripping the skin.
It’s even been skin irritant patch tested to work perfectly on sensitive skin types, making it a wonderful cleanser for acne as well as dry skin.
To use this cleanser:
Take an adequate amount and lather with water.
Gently apply on the skin and gently rub.
Rinse off with lukewarm water.
Can be used as a stand-alone foaming cleanser if you don’t wear heavy makeup.
2. Toning
After cleansing, you need something to wipe off the last tiny bits of dirt and grime that your cleanser just didn’t catch. Not to mention, there are many toners that provide moisturizing benefits as well as toning.
Centella Asiatica and Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extracts in Toning Gel relieve sunburn, atopy, irritation, and pain on the skin, especially after facial treatments.
OxygenCeuticals’ Toning Gel is a ultra-light and fast absorbing gel toner that is gentle on the skin. Its soothing ingredients, Centella Asiatica Leaf and Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extracts, relieve irritation and pain on the skin, especially after facial treatments.
But it doesn’t just sooth. It also contains anti-aging agents, Adenosine and Allantoin, to improve skin elasticity and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Its versatility is what makes the Toning Gel such a great product.
You can use it as a toner after cleansing by applying it to the skin and then patting until absorbed. However, it has a few more wonderful uses!
To create an ultra hydrating mask, mix with the HA Gel.
Apply the mixture on your skin and leave it on for 15-30 minutes.
Wash it off with lukewarm water.
If you’re a spa or esthetician, leave on during Oxygen Mist Therapy for an extra boost of nutrients!
Essence type toner suitable for dry and aging skin. Nourishes and hydrates the skin, making it soft and smooth.
One of our bestselling toners, the Nutrient Toner contains Hyaluronic Acid, Allantoin, and Portulaca Oleracea Extract. Hyaluronic Acid, also known as Sodium Hyaluronate, is a humectant. A humectant is a substance that helps the skin hold in moisture. Therefore, this toner will keep water from evaporating from the skin and leave it full and bouncy. Allantoin is an anti-aging ingredient that aids in the process of skin cell turnover. This means it will keep the skin smooth once the dead skin layer is shed off. Dry, dead skin can appear flaky and result in the formation of fine lines.
When using this toner, your skin will feel like it’s drunk its fill of pure moisture and it will continue to feel that way for a long time, as it’s formulated to keep the moisture in.
To use this toner, after cleansing:
Soak a cotton pad with the toner.
Wipe the pad across the face to remove impurities and hydrate the skin.
This toner can also be used to make a DIY mask pack by soaking cotton pads in the toner and leaving them on dry spots on the face for 5-10 minutes. This will allow the toner to properly soak into the skin.
If these two toners don’t do the trick for your textured skin, try the Skin Balancing Toner. Sometimes a pH imbalance in your skin can lead to excess oil production, the Skin Balancing Toner will refresh and soothe such skin.
3. Peeling
Every once in a while, you have to exfoliate your skin. Maybe once or twice a week, depending on your skin type and what products you use. Exfoliating is essential for those who want a brighter, healthier glow on their skin. And that’s because exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells by breaking the bonds that glue them together, allowing new skin cells to rise to the surface.
Exfoliating, or peeling, can also be a kind of ‘third-step’ cleansing. Your exfoliating product can get rid of any of the deeply hidden dirt and debris in your pores that your first two cleansers missed.
Peeling can help get rid of the damaged skin cells that manifest as fine lines or wrinkles on your face. Peel away those cells and replace them with bright, soft, youthful skin!
Physical exfoliant with pineapple and papaya extracts. Exfoliates dull skin and unclogs pores to remove dead skin cells without causing irritation. Suitable to use on sensitive skin.
The Daily Botanicals Enzyme Peel is a gentle, gommage peel. ‘Gommage’ comes from the French word for ‘erasing’. A gommage peel works by applying a cream or paste to the skin, letting it sit for a minute or so, and then rubbing the product into the skin. When rubbed, the product will curl up into little balls that resemble something like pencil shavings, taking your dead skin along with it.
Most gommage peels contain enzymes which act as the exfoliating agents. The Daily Botanicals Enzyme Peel contains Pineapple and Papaya enzymes and extracts to exfoliate dull skin and unclog pores gently.
The inclusion of Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract works to protect the skin with its antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. This helps to make the product suitable for even very sensitive or acne prone skin.
After using it, your skin will feel softer and smoother, and over time, if done consecutively, dark spots and acne scars will begin to fade as dead skin cells are removed and new skin cells are pushed to the surface.
To use the peel:
After toner, apply adequate amount onto moistened face or neck.
Let sit for about 30 seconds to 1 minute to allow the enzymes to break down dead skin cells.
Gently rub to exfoliate and then rinse with lukewarm water.
Chemical exfoliant that removes dead skin cells effectively with 24.5% AHA and 0.5% BHA. Contains Panthenol which soothes, moisturizes, and reduces inflammation.
The Double Peel is a chemical exfoliant. Chemical exfoliants work differently from gommage peels or traditional physical peels like scrubs.
A chemical peel is a skin exfoliant with a pH of around 2.0. Chemical Peels typically contain acids called AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) and BHAs (Beta Hydroxy Acids). These are chemical exfoliants that remove dead skin cells from the top layer of your skin.
AHAs work by reducing the concentration of calcium ions in the skin which promotes the shedding of surface-level skin cells (If you’ve heard of Glycolic or Lactic Acid, you’ve heard of AHas)
BHAs do much of the same, but they provide antibacterial benefits. One BHA you’re probably already familiar with is Salicylic Acid, commonly used to treat acne.
Chemical Peeling with such acids provide a variety of benefits for our skin. They can reduce fine lines and wrinkles, revive dull skin, remove dark spots, reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, and even improve acne.
This product has an optimum AHA:BHA ratio of 24.5% AHA to 0.5% BHA. It also contains panthenol to soothe, moisturize, and calm inflammation.
To use the Double Peel:
After toner, apply an adequate amount on the skin (avoid the eye areas)
Let sit for 1-2 minutes if you have normal skin, 2-3 minutes for oily skin, and 30 secs – 1 min for senstive skin.
Use once a week, or according to your skin type.
4. Ampoules
You might be wondering, “what is the difference between an ampoule and a serum?” or even “why do I need to use an ampoule in the first place?” Well, an ampoule is essentially a super extra potent serum that targets a specific skin concern. You might only use an ampoule on occasions when your skin feels particularly dry and use a serum twice daily.
OxygenCeuticals’ Fluid Line contains six powerful targeted ampoules that aid in every skin concern. We have a few ampoules helpful for textured skin.
Patented ingredient, Acell-300 (Polygonum Cuspidatum Root Extract & Prunella Vulgaris Leaf Extract) helps strengthen the skin and create a protective barrier to keep the skin moisturized.
OxygenCeuticals’ official hydrating fluid, the Acell-300 creates a protective, non-drying moisture layer to give the skin a natural glow. How do we know it works? The name Acell-300 isn’t just talk. This contains the patented ingredient “ACELL 300 COMPLEX.” This was created as a result of 300 tests and research projects to find an ingredient with long-lasting hydration.
The ACELL 300 COMPLEX is made up of several botanical ingredients specifically chosen for their hydrating power: Althaea Rosea Flower Extracts, Polygonum Cuspidatum Root Extracts, Monnieri Fruit Extracts, Prunella Vulgaris Leaf Extracts, and Capric Glycerides.
Apply 1-2 drops on clean skin before applying serum/essence.
Massage into the skin and let absorb.
We recommend mixing this fluid with our Moisture Aqua Serum for easier application and deeper hydration. It can also be used as a base for dewy makeup.
A trouble care targeted fluid. Enriched with anti-acne complex to balance sebum secretion and minimize pores to reveal a healthy, dewy look.
This is OxygenCeuticals’ main acne-targeted ampoule. It’s a very gentle solution formulated with Salicylic Acid for mild exfoliation of dead skin cells. It also contains Sodium PCA for maintaining moisture in the skin.
However, its patented ‘Anti-Acne Complex’ made up of Terminalia Chebula Fruit Extract, Caesalpinia Sappan Bark Extract, and Magnolia Obovata Bark Extract relieves skin troubles like acne. These herbal ingredients work to soothe and relieve inflammation on the skin while purifying and controlling sebum production.
To use the Herbal Fluid:
Apply 1-2 drops on clean skin before applying serum/essence.
Our next step seems obvious! Serum! A skin serum is a light, easily absorbed liquid that you spread on your skin for extra nutrients, moisture, etc. A serum can even have multiple functions! OxygenCeuticals’ line of serums certainly does.
An ultra hydrating serum, packed with Sodium Hyaluronate and Jojoba Oil, that retains moisture and keeps skin hydrated. Suitable for acne, dry, oily, and other skin types.
OxygenCeuticals’ Moisture Aqua Serum is a light, hydrating serum that creates an oil-water balance in the skin. This serum is not only packed with Hyaluronic Acid and Jojoba Oil, which make it so moisturizing, it also contains Arginine and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract. Arginine is a great antioxidant that controls the skin pH balance while Camellia Sinensis smooths the skin and repairs damage.
This serum works wonders when used together with the Acell-300 Fluid. We actually offer the two products in a quick and easy kit for those who want to try it out before buying the full size products. This is the Acell Moisture Kit! A must have serum set for anyone suffering with dry skin.
To use the serum:
At the serum step, apply an adequate amount to the face.
Pat gently onto the skin until it is absorbed.
For best results, mix with a fluid that matches your skin concern! (For dry skin, mix with the Acell-300 Fluid!)
We also recommend using the B5 Gel along with the products listed above if you are concerned with fine lines and wrinkles!
A brightening antioxidant serum that builds firm and toned skin from the ground up. This powerful serum contains the highest concentration of Idebenone, a new, cutting-edge super antioxidant, at 20,000ppm.
One of the newest members of the OxygenCeuticals’ family is the ReGenon Serum. Officially marketed as an anti-aging serum, this serum is much more.
Containing 20,000ppm of Idebenone, this serum has serious antioxidant power! Considered to be 4x more powerful than Vitamin C, Idebenone evens out skin tone and improves hyperpigmentation.
Other ingredients like the Superberry Complex, made up of apples, grapes, pomegranates, palm beans, western plums, peaches, and watermelons work to protect the skin from external environmental hazards like fine dust and pollution.
The Oil Complex and Amino Acid 17 Complex supply nutrients to skin cells to maintain moisture and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
This serum is not limited to use on mature skin. In fact, the earlier the better. Using antioxidant serums can prevent skin aging while improving the common issues of younger skin, such as acne and pigmentation.
To use the ReGenon Serum:
Apply an appropriate amount to the skin.
Gently tap into the skin until fully absorbed.
Use with ReGenon Cream for enhanced anti-oxidative and hydrating effects.
Contains Vitamin B5(Panthenol) and Sodium Hyaluronate that help hydrate skin whereas Adenosine improves skin elasticity and prevents premature aging.
Another popular vitamin serum, the B5 Gel is a super absorbant, vitamin-rich, anti-aging serum pack with vitamin B5 and other moisturizing factors to keep the skin feeling soft and smooth!
Formulated with Panthenol, a form of vitamin B5, to soothe and smooth the skin. This serum also contains anti-aging agent, Adenosine. Adenosine improves skin elasticity, smooths out wrinkles, and keeps the skin looking youthful. Adenosine works by activating fibroblasts in the skin, which secrete collagen proteins and heal wounds.
This serum contains both Hyaluronic Acid and Honeysuckle Extracts to hydrate and maintain moisture content deep within the skin layers for longer.
To use the B5 Gel:
Apply 1-2 drops of the serum to the skin.
Pat gently until absorbed.
It’s recommended to use in conjunction with the Serum 12/17 and Phyto Gel for bonus anti-oxidative and brightening effects.
It can also be used as a base for Ultrasonic or Ion Therapy.
6. Facial Masks
What fun would skincare be if we couldn’t just plop a mask on our face, get something to drink, and chill on our couch while the mask does its magic?
Depending on the type of mask, it should come either before or after moisturizers. Sheet Masks should come before creams or moisturizers, while clay masks should come before any ampoule or serums.
Let’s see what kind of masks OxygenCeuticals has for those struggling with skin texture.
It hydrates and regenerates irritated skin after medical procedure. Furthermore, it soothes sensitive and irritated skin caused by external stress and irritation.
This sheet is crafted with soft cotton and eucalyptus fibers mixed in an optimal ratio to rest gently on the skin without itchiness or irritation. Designed to be used directly after dermatological treatments, this mask accelerates damaged skin recovery. It also contains DNA to enhance skin cell regeneration and ceramide to strengthen the skin barriers.
If you have sensitive skin and want some relief, the PP mask can provide instant calming to your skin.
To use the PP Mask:
Remove the mask from its package.
Apply the mask on the face.
Leave the mask for 10-20 minutes.
After removing the mask, gently tap the skin to help the remaining serum absorb fully into the skin.
Premium modeling mask with more than 15% marine algae extracts. The Alginate exfoliates dead skin cells and at the same time hydrates, nourishes, and calms the skin.
Developed to deeply hydrate, cool, and visibly plump the skin, the OxygenCeuticals Modeling Mask is a professional-grade mask used in dermatology clinics and spas. The system is designed to create an occlusive barrier, loaded with humectants to seal in hydration, while the algae extracts and botanicals extract complex cool and calm the skin. Hyaluronic acid instantly creates the appearance of plumper skin and seals in moisture for lasting hydration.
The RT Mask moisturizes and soothes the skin after a procedure. Its active ingredient is corn starch which prevents moisture from evaporating off the skin. First layer the face with serum or another light cream mask and follow with the RT Mask to seal in all the goodies from the first products.
Rinse Clarifying Mask mixture with lukewarm water.
There are two other types of modeling masks. If you want cooling, soothing care try the CT Modeling Mask. For brightening care, try the VC Modeling Mask.
A skin purifying mask that removes excess sebum and dead skin cells while moisturizing skin.
No skincare routine would be complete without a kaolin clay mask, right? OxygenCeutical’s Clarifying Mask is a skin-purifying wash-off mask that delivers unparalleled control of excessive sebum while also brightening and soothing the skin.
Containing Tocopheryl Acetate, a form of Vitamin E, this mask can sooth inflamed skin and acne, but also provide anti-oxidative effects that leave the skin looking immediately brighter after just one use.
Kaolin Clay works to control sebum protection and prevent acne formation, while Ceramide provides moisture to the skin. The mask leaves your skin feeling cool and clean after use, and you can literally see improvements in redness immediately.
To use the Clarifying Mask:
Apply evenly to the skin with a brush or spatula.
Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
Wash off the mask with lukewarm water
For extra soothing effects and longer wearability, mix the Clarifying Mask with Toning Gel in a 1:1 ratio before appliability.
Highly moisturizing gel enriched with pure aloe vera to help soothe and calm skin after sun exposure. Contains no alcohol or artificial coloring.
Aloe Vera is probably the have-all, be-all of skincare ingredients. It calms, it heals, it smooths, it moisturizes…there seems like there’s nothing it can’t do to help your skin.
Studies show that continued use of Aloe Vera gel on the skin can help improve skin texture, increase elasticity, and reduce signs of aging.
Since Aloe Vera is anti-inflammatory, it can soothe and heal irritated, red skin that manifests in acne or chapped patches. It also locks in moisture to the skin by acting as a glue keeping the skin cells bonded together. This makes it perfect for anyone suffering from bumpy or uneven skin.
To use the Soothing Aloe Vera Gel:
Apply an adequate amount to the skin.
Pat and massage gently until absorbed.
Can be used as an ultrasonic base gel or soothing mask pack.
If you don’t like Aloe Vera Gel, you can try out a few of our other moisturizers instead. If you want extra antioxidative power, try the ReGenon Cream. For sensitive skin, try the Skin Barrier Ato Cream or Couperose Cream.
8. Sun Care
Exposure to sunlight is one of main causes of skin damage. Leaving skin vulnerable to UV rays can accelerate aging or make dark spots look worse. If you have textured skin, then sun care is imperative to improving your skin’s surface.
Choosing the best sunscreen for your skin is essential to keeping it healthy and youthful! OxygenCeuticals has two great options for suncare. Let’s see what they are!
A featherlight daily sunscreen with SPF 50+++. Shields skin from harmful UVA and UVB to prevent premature aging while delivering moisturizing factors to the skin.
This super lightweight sun screen protects your skin from UVA and UVB sun rays to prevent sun damage like dark spots, sun spots, premature aging, and even more dangerous conditions.
It’s a unique combination of mineral and chemical sun filters to ensure your skin is protected from all angles. This sunscreen absorbs flawlessly into the skin without any white cast or greasiness. It also smells really good (but maybe that’s only important to me).
Let’s not forget its bonus benefits! Vitamin E in the formula protects the skin’s moisture barrier and keeps nasty environmental hazards from sticking to the skin. Hyaluronic Acid keeps the skin hydrated and Allantoin soothes and calms skin. Sounds like the perfect formula for a summer sunscreen.
To use the TP Sun Cream:
Apply an adequate amount to the skin. (Try two fingerlengths of cream, or a teaspoon amount)
Use a the final step in your daily skincare routine.
Water-resistant sunscreen ideal for outdoor activities or sports. Provides both UVA and UVB protection. (Used for both face and body)
If you need a sunscreen with more ‘oomph’, try the Leport’s Sunblock. This sunscreen can be used on both your face and body, so all bases are covered. This waterproof formula is perfect for anyone who plays sports or lives an active outdoor lifestyle.
Completely invisible after application, it’ll provide moisture to your skin as well as keep it safe.
Another combination sunscreen with both mineral and chemical filters, it also contains Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin E, and Aloe Vera Leaf Juice Powder for soothing benefits.
To use Leport’s Sunblock:
Apply an adequate amount to the skin (for the face: about two fingerlengths).
Pat it evenly onto the skin until invisible.
For extra sun protection and some skin evening action, try out OxygenCeuticals Intensive Blemish Balm and O2 Cushion as an everyday makeup combo.
Multi-action BB Cream formulated with Oligopeptide that helps in skincell turnover, smooths skin texture, and provides a natural, semi-sheer coverage for redness-prone and blemished skin.
The Intensive Blemish Balm is a multi-functional BB Cream that provides a natural coverage for clear-looking skin. Light-weight, this BB Cream makes a perfect base for anyone looking to avoid heavy, dragging makeup along the skin.
It’s not just a makeup product though! It also contains peptides and beta-glucan to protect the skin against harmful external factors. Witch Hazel Extracts promotes the skin cell cycle to speed up skin recovery after a procedure and Centella Asiatica Leaf Extracts soothe and calm distressed skin.
Some of our best products come in the form of sets. I mean, doesn’t everyone love to save money on their skincare? OxygenCeuticals offers several ‘kits’ for various skin concerns, containing two or three products in one package to make it easier for you to organize your own skin regimen.
Here are some of OxygenCeuticals’ best Skincare Kits for textured skin!
A tailored kit designed to relieve different skincare concerns. This kit includes a powerful ampoule and accompanying booster targeted towards your specific skincare goals along with the Ceutisome Stem Formula, an O2 carrier, to promote maximum absorption.
We love a customized skincare set. Our Ceutisome Trial Kits can be mixed and matched to create the perfect ampoule solution for your specific skin type and skin concern.
The Ceutisome O Trial Kit contains the Ceutisome Oilycom Ampoule, the O-Booster, and the Ceutisome Stem Formula.
The combination of the Oilycom Ampoule and O-Booster helps to relieve acne and achieve healthy skin by soothing and boosting skin renewal activity.
It’s three main ingredients all work together for ultimate acne treatment. Tryptophan normalizes the skin regeneration cycle, Citrus Callus Extract provides concentrated treatment care to affected areas, and sh-Oligo peptide-3 enhances the skin protection layer to keep skin safe.
Adding the Stem Formula into the mix ensures maximum absorbtion. The Stem Formula, an O2 carrier, purifies the skin by removing carbon dioxide and supplying oxygen. It also accelerates healing and inhibits signs of aging by activing the metabolism of skin cells.
You can also buy another Trial Kit and mix with the O Trial Kit to get customized results. If you have dry and blemished skin, try mixing with the H Trial Kit. For blemished and pigmented skin, mix with the P Trial Kit. Finally, if you want anti-aging benefits alongside acne care, mix with the W Trial Kit.
To Use the O Trial Kit:
Combine the Booster and Stem Formula together with the Ceutisome Ampoule (pour the booster and stem formula into the ampoule bottle).
Shake well and apply 1/3 of the mixure onto the skin.
For use as an ampoule, pat until fully absorbed.
Apply and then use the MTS Nano Pen for an ampoule infusion treatment at home.
A 3-step starter kit designed to provide soothing and cooling treatment to your irritated or otherwise sensitive skin.
If you’re not absolutely sure about some of these products yet. We have great “starter kits” that will let you get a peek at the good they can do for your skin. For sensitive skin, we offer the CC Starter Kit!
Very simple to use, sans cleansing, it provides a full skincare regimen for you so you don’t have to fret over making up your own.
After cleansing, preferably with OxygenCeuticals’ Purifying Foaming Wash or Gentle FacialCleansing Lotion, apply the Skin Balancing Toner to soothe redness and balance the skin to its natural pH level. Afterwards, apply the Couperose Fluid for a boost of moisture and calming power. Finally use the Couperose Cream to lock in that moisture while its botanical ingredients reduces inflammation on the skin.
Apply Skin Balancing Toner onto the skin with a cotton pad.
Apply 1-2 drops of Couperose Fluid and pat gently until absorbed.
Finish with an adequate amount of Couperose Cream. Pat until absorbed.
Optional : Use the Ceutisome CC Mask after the Couperose Fluid and before cream for extra cooling and calming effect.
Conclusion
Textured skin may make you feel like your skin is rough or dirty, but it’s a pretty simple problem to fix. OxygenCeuticals has plenty of different options that can work wonders to defeat the root causes of uneven skin texture.
Whether it be from aging, pollution, sebum, dead skin cells, or sun damage, OxygenCeuticals has a solution for your skin!
If you have some spots on your skin that’s darker than others, you might have hyperpigmentation. Hyperpigmentation has a few causes. The biggest cause of hyperpigmentation is sun exposure, resulting in excess melanin production. Acne and inflammation can also leave dark spots on your skin long after it’s healed or gone away.
Melanin isn’t a bad thing. However, in some people, excess melanin can make skin look blotchy and uneven. If you think you have hyperpigmentation or dark spots, continue reading. We have just the right skincare routine for you!
Let’s get started!
1. Cleansing
Hyperpigmentation is damage already done. Unfortunately, you can’t just wash those spots away, but a good cleanser can keep your skin becoming inflamed or irritated, and therefore avoid possible dark spots from forming.
OxygenCeuticals recommends that you double cleanse at least once a day to fully remove any and all SPF, dirt, and grime that you accumulate on your skin throughout the day.
A botanical oil-based cleanser for removing makeup from the eyes, lips, and face. Cleanses without causing irritation. Good for all skin types including sensitive skin.
After cleansing, you need something to wipe off the last tiny bits of dirt and grime that your cleanser just didn’t catch. Nowadays, toners offer much more than just cleansing. A lot of toners have multifunctional ingredients to brighten, moisturize, or exfoliate the skin.
OxygenCeuticals has five great toners for you to choose from according to your skin type and skin concerns!
Centella Asiatica and Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extracts in Toning Gel relieve sunburn, atopy, irritation, and pain on the skin, especially after facial treatments.
Toner with pH 5.5. Regulates sebum and moisture balance after cleansing. Improves skin texture, moisturizes, and strengthens skin immunity with herbal ingredients.
Contains high amount of dissolved oxygen and minerals from desalinated deep sea water. Soothes and regenerates skin after facial procedures such as LASER, peeling, and microneedling therapy.
Key Ingredients: Sea Water / Oxygen
How to Use:
Spray mist onto the face.
Spray cotton pads with activator to create a mummy mask.
Double oxygen skin booster with pure oxygen that instantly soothes and moisturizes the skin after aesthetic procedures.
Key Ingredients: Sea Water / Oxygen / Hydrogenated Starch Hydrolysate
How to Use:
Spray adequate amount onto face at toner step.
Reapply onto the skin as needed.
3. Peeling
Every once in a while, you have to exfoliate your skin. Maybe once or twice a week, depending on your skin type and what products you use. Exfoliating is essential for those who want a brighter, healthier glow on their skin.

OxygenCeuticals has two different types of exfoliating products, both great choices for a brighter skin complexion.
Physical exfoliant with pineapple and papaya extracts. Exfoliates dull skin and unclogs pores to remove dead skin cells without causing irritation. Suitable to use on sensitive skin.
The Daily Botanicals Enzyme Peel is a gentle, gommage peel. ‘Gommage’ comes from the French word for ‘erasing’. A gommage peel works by applying a cream or paste to the skin, letting it sit for a minute or so, and then rubbing the product into the skin.

To use the peel:

Let sit for about 30 seconds to 1 minute to allow the enzymes to break down dead skin cells.
Gently rub to exfoliate and then rinse with lukewarm water.
Chemical exfoliant that removes dead skin cells effectively with 24.5% AHA and 0.5% BHA. Contains Panthenol which soothes, moisturizes, and reduces inflammation.
The Double Peel is a chemical exfoliant. Chemical exfoliants work differently from gommage peels or traditional physical peels like scrubs.

4. Ampoule
You might be wondering, “what is the difference between an ampoule and a serum?” or even “why do I need to use an ampoule in the first place?” Well, an ampoule is essentially a super extra potent serum that targets a specific skin concern. You might only use an ampoule on occasions when your skin feels particularly dry and use a serum twice daily.
OxygenCeuticals’ Fluid Line contains six powerful targeted ampoules that aid in every skin concern. We have one ampoule specifically for dull skin!
While Fructan Extract moisturizes skin, Arbutin and Niacinamide work in synergy to reduce melanin and reveal clearer and brighter skin.
As OxygenCeuticals’ main brightening ampoule, the Fermented Fluid is a glow-inducing ampoule formulated with Vitamin E, Arbutin, Niacinamide, and Fructan to brighten and moisturize the skin.
Arbutin and Niacinamide work to inhibit the production of excess melanin by suppressing the activity of tyrosinase, an enzyme that plays an important role in melanin production. Vitamin E works to moisturize and smoothen out the skin’s texture. So, you get a multifunctional ampoule that packs a punch.
To use the Fermented Fluid:
Apply an adequate amount to the skin.
Gently pat until absorbed.
Mix with Moisture Aqua Serum for smoother texture and amplified hydration effects.
A brightening solution kit that delivers powerful antioxidants and glow skin benefits to promote plumper, brighter, firmer-looking skin.
The Glutathione Ampoule set comes with six cartridges of the product. This ampoule contains powerful brightening ingredients such as Glutathione, Niacinamide, and 7 types of extracts from Giga White. This sounds all very great, but what does it mean?
Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that is typically produced in the liver. It has a lot of medical usages, but for the skin, it reduces oxidative stress to improve your complexion. It can reduce dark spots, like freckles or sun spots, reduce blemishes, and diminish acne scars.
Niacinamide is well known in skincare for its brightening effects, but it can also minimize large pores and restore moisture loss and dehydration. For many, an appropriate amount of niacinamide can even treat acne.
Giga White comes from several different plant extracts and works effectively to lessen the appearance of hyperpigmentation on the skin.
Altogether these ingredients create a bright, even skin complexion for anyone who uses the ampoule.
To use the Glutathione Ampoule:
Apply appropriate amount to the skin after toner.
Gently massage into the skin until absorbed.
Use with Glutathione ToneUp Cream to increase brightening effect.
5. Serum
Our next step seems obvious! Serum! A skin serum is a light, easily absorbed liquid that you spread on your skin for extra nutrients, moisture, etc. A serum can even have multiple functions! OxygenCeuticals’ line of serums certainly does.
We’ll share a few different serums that do wonders for hyperpigmentation!
Serum packed with botanical extracts and niacinamide to calm, even, and hydrate skin for a glowing and even skin texture.
By far, one of OxygenCeuticals bestselling serums, Phyto Gel has a quickly absorbable, light texture that doesn’t leave a heavy, greasy feeling on the skin. It’s a brightening serum that uses niacinamide to even out the skin tone and reduce hyperpigmentation and dark spots.
But it’s more than just that.
Phyto Gel also contains Hyaluronic Acid that penetrates the deep layers of the skin to provide long lasting hydration. Hydrated skin is glowing, healthy skin. It also contains Centella Asiatica Leaf extract, an ingredient well-known for its soothing, healing qualities for red or irritated skin.
To use Phyto Gel:
Apply an adequate amount to the skin after ampoules.
The combination of pure Vitamin C Powder and Vitamin E Serum. Gets rid of excess melanin and strengthens skin barrier, leaving the skin looking healthy and glossy.
If you’re a skincare buff, you probably already know that Vitamin C is a godsend for skin health. While it can be harsh to very sensitive skin types, it’s known to treat hyperpigmentation, acne, dull skin, dry skin, and damaged skin. Vitamin C Serums, much like how Vitamin C tablets protect our immune systems, provide a layer of protection to the skin to prevent damage from free radicals, oxidative stress, and UVA and UVB rays. Vitamin C inhibits melanin synthesis, which causes hyperpigmentation, resulting in the prevention of skin discoloration.
OxygenCeuticals’ Serum 12 and Serum 17 are two sizes of the same product. Serum 12 comes with pure Vitamin C powder and 30ml of Vitamin E serum. Mixing the two will result in a solution with 12% Vitamin C, hence the name ‘Serum 12’. Serum 17 is much the same but with 17% of Vitamin C and 60ml of Vitamin E solution.
The serums not only contain Vitamin C and E, but also Sodium PCA, a moisturizing factor that hydrates and smooths uneven texture. They also each contain anti-aging ingredient allantoin to sooth and keep skin soft.
To use Serum 12/17:
Mix the Serum 12/17 with the Vitamin C powder.
Shake thoroughly.
Apply 1-2 drops on the skin and pat until fully absorbed.

6. Facial Mask
What fun would skincare be if we couldn’t just plop a mask on our face, get something to drink, and chill on our couch while the mask does its magic?
Depending on the type of mask, it should come either before or after moisturizers. Modeling Masks can be used together with creams to seal in the moisture as an occulent. Let’s see what kind of masks OxygenCeuticals offers to improve hyperpigmentation and dark spots!
Premium modeling mask with more than 15% marine algae extracts. The Alignate exfoliates dead skin cells and at the same time hydrates, nourishes and calms the skin.
OxygenCeuticals’ Modeling Masks are professional-grade masks used in dermatology clinics and spas. The VC Modeling Mask is a powder mask facial treatment that drives essential actives into the skin through a reviving oxygen exchange for an instantly dewy, healthy-looking complexion.
The VC Mask’s main active is Ascorbic Acid, a form of Vitamin C, which we know can brighten the skin and even out uneven skin tone and texture.
It also contains 15% marine algae extracts to exfoliate dead skin cells and hydrate at the same time. The system is designed to create an occlusive barrier, loaded with humectants to seal in hydration, while the algae extracts and botanicals extract complex cool and calm the skin.

7. Cream
So now we’ve finally gotten to the moisturizers. Creams are important in skincare because they’re meant to lock in all the good stuff we just put on, as well as provide their own benefits.
OxygenCeuticals has several moisturizers with brightening effects, so you have a long list to choose from!
Use with ReGenon Serum for enhanced anti-oxidative and anti-aging effects.
8. Sun Care
This is the moment of truth. Sun Care is Dark Spot Care. Bottom Line. The number one cause of hyperpigmentation and dark spots is UVA and UVB damage from sun exposure.
So, you’ve got to protect your skin. Remember, the Sun. Is. Not. Your. Friend.
Here’s what OxygenCeuticals has in store for sun protection!
A featherlight daily sunscreen with SPF 50+++. Shields skin from harmful UVA and UVB to prevent premature aging while delivering moisturizing factors to the skin.
This super lightweight sun screen protects your skin from UVA and UVB sun rays to prevent sun damage like dark spots, sun spots, premature aging, and even more dangerous conditions.
It’s a unique combination of mineral and chemical sun filters to ensure your skin is protected from all angles. This sunscreen absorbs flawlessly into the skin without any white cast or greasiness. It also smells really good (but maybe that’s only important to me).
Let’s not forget its bonus benefits! Vitamin E in the formula protects the skin’s moisture barrier and keeps nasty environmental hazards from sticking to the skin. Hyaluronic Acid keeps the skin hydrated and Allantoin soothes and calms skin. Sounds like the perfect formula for a summer sunscreen.
To use the TP Sun Cream:
Apply an adequate amount to the skin. (An adequate amount of sunscreen should be about two fingerlengths of cream, or a teaspoon amount)
Use a the final step in your daily skincare routine.
Water-resistant sunscreen ideal for outdoor activities or sports. Provides both UVA and UVB protection. (Used for both face and body)

Completely invisible after application, it’ll provide moisture to your skin as well keep it safe.

Apply an adequate amount to the skin (for the face: about two fingerlengths).
Pat it evenly onto the skin until invisible.
For extra sun protection and some skin evening action, try out OxygenCeuticals Intensive Blemish Balm and O2 Cushion as an everyday makeup combo.
9. Body Care
Skincare doesn’t stop at the face after all. The skin is the largest organ of our bodies and it’s all over! We should take just as much care of it as we do of our faces. Let’s see what products we can use for hyperpigmentation on our bodies!
A premium massage cream enriched with Vitamin C. It helps lighten, even up skin tone and improves elasticity. It’s especially good for rough skin in need of nutrients and hydration (Used for both face and body)
Containing the brightening ingredient we know and love, the Active-C Massage Cream is a vitamin C based cream that nourishes your skin and improves its pigment and elasticity.
A massage with the Active-C Cream can be especially good for rough skin in need of hydration or skin that needs tightening.

Massage in circular motions to nourish skin and make it firm, healthy, and moisturized.
Make sure to completely wipe off the cream after use.
10. Skincare Kits
Some of our best products come in the form of sets. I mean, doesn’t everyone love to save money on their skincare? OxygenCeuticals offers several ‘kits’ for various skin concerns, containing two or three products in one package to make it easier for you to organize your own skin regimen.
Here are some of OxygenCeuticals’ brightening Skincare Kits.
A brightening kit combing two effective lighteners, Giga White (7 types of Swiss Alpine Plant Extract) and Glutathione, encourages the promotion of a brighter, more uniform complexion.
An easy-to-use kit containing the Glutathione Ampoule mentioned above, the Glutathione ToneUp Kit is a brightening sucker punch.
Combining the Glutathione Ampoule and Glutathione ToneUp Cream gives instantly skin brightening results. This simple kit contains three effective brightening ingredients: Glutathione, Niacinamide, and Giga White
As mentioned above, Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that reduces oxidative stress to improve your complexion. It can reduce dark spots, like freckles or sun spots, reduce blemishes, and diminish acne scars.
Niacinamide inhibits melanin movement and production, keeping dark spots from forming or getting larger. This isn’t just talk.
Our clinical trials have shown that after four weeks of use, hyperpigmentation improved by 2.97%.
To use the Glutathione ToneUp Kit:
Apply 1-2 drops of the Glutathione Ampoule onto the skin.
Pat until fully absorbed.
Apply an adequate amount of Glutathione ToneUp Cream.
A tailored kit designed to relieve different skincare concerns. This kit includes a powerful ampoule and accompanying booster targeted towards your specific skincare goals along with the Ceutisome Stem Formula, an O2 carrier, to promote maximum absorption.
We love a customized skincare set. Our Ceutisome Trial Kits can be mixed and matched to create the perfect ampoule solution for your specific skin type and skin concern.
The Ceutisome P Trial Kit contains the Ceutisome Hyperpigment Ampoule, the P-Booster, and the Ceutisome Stem Formula.
The combination of the Hyperpigment Ampoule and the P-Booster brightens and purifies skin, relieves blemishes, and keeps skin firm and smooth. The formulation of Arbutin and Nicotinoyl Tripeptide-1 prevents melanin synthesis and movement across the skin.
Adding the Stem Formula into the mix ensures maximum absorbtion. The Stem Formula, an O2 carrier, purifies the skin by removing carbon dioxide and supplying oxygen. It also accelerates healing and inhibits signs of aging by activating the metabolism of skin cells.
You can also buy another Trial Kit and mix with the P Trial Kit to get customized results. If you have dry and pigmented skin, try mixing with the H Trial Kit. For blemished and pigmented skin, mix with the O Trial Kit. Finally, if you want anti-aging benefits alongside brightening, mix with the W Trial Kit.
To Use the P Trial Kit:
Combine the Booster and Stem Formula together with the Ceutisome Ampoule (pour the booster and stem formula into the ampoule bottle).
Shake well and apply 1/3 of the mixure onto the skin.
For use as an ampoule, pat until fully absorbed.
Apply and then use the MTS Nano Pen for an ampoule infusion treatment at home.
