Skin Fundamentals

The main focus of this fundamental daily skin care range is to bring the skin back to, and maintain, a state of equilibrium.

A complete range of skin care products and treatments designed to regulate and maintain the skin's hydration and protection on a daily basis, balancing the varying degrees of essential lipids from dry to oily skin as well as ameliorating delicate, sensitive and couperose skin.

All the products of this range have been created to 'mix & match' and work synergistically for an individual skin care regime.

Oily Skin

These products answer the cosmetic demands of excess sebum flow which may cause congestion and asphyxiation of the tissues in an oily skin (particularly during times of high temperatures and humidity, or, pre and during menstruation). Sothys Oily Skin line addresses the problem of eruptions and the formation of blackheads, refines open pores and absorbs the shiny film that can form on the skin during the day.

Acne Problem Skin

This treatment line is designed to target skin showing signs of oily impurities. In particular, this line is recommended for skin with acne or hardened sebaceous lumps appearing on the jaw line, neck and back as a typical pattern. This is can be seen as inflamed mature-onset acne and is often difficult to resolve with conventional oily skin treatments: A specific skin care regime is required. The Correcting line includes a serum and treatment cream to assist in the management of oily problem skin. It is imperative to maintain a diligent regime of cleansing, exfoliating and biological cleansing in support of the products in this line.

Normal/Combination Skin

The products of this line are especially designed for naturally balanced skin with a tendency towards a combination of slightly oilier T zone and drier cheeks. The sophisticated Hydra Protective line with Chaparral extract helps the skin maintain its bloom and freshness leaving it supple, healthy and protected from the effects of the environment.

Dry Skin

Sothys Dry Skin line has been created for skin with diminished essential hydrating lipids (oils), resulting in a rough texture and "tight" sensation (often resulting in sensitised skin). These products are designed to improve the vital texture and natural protection of the tissues by keeping them moist and nourished with softness, comfort and an aura of radiance. The essential ingredients maintain a supple skin appearance with extensive protection against dehydration from drying elements: Low ambient humidity air-conditioning and artificial heating, cold winds and extremes of weather.

Sensitive Skin

Sothys potent Immuniscience formulations yield exceptional results on sensitive and reactive skin types. Synergistic active ingredients work together to ensure softness and lasting comfort and assist in calming and soothing irritated and very delicate skin. Immuniscience leaves the skin relaxed and strengthened thanks to its unique ingredient, Photonyl®. The Immuniscience line is free of any aromatic perfumes which may irritate sensitive skin. Immuniscience skin care products are the perfect support in combination with Sothys Fragile Capillaries line products where skin sensitivity or irritation is associated with zones of flushing coupe rosé.

Skin with Fragile Capillaries

More than 70% of New Zealand women say they have sensitive skin with reddened fragile capillaries...

Sothys have created a dynamic and complete solution for skin with delicate sensitive zones exhibiting fine capillaries. This skin type is easily affected by the environment, or by various physiological changes (particularly pre and during menstruation) when there is increased flushing in the face and neck. Based on selected polyphenols extracted from plants with a high bio-availability, Sothys new Clarte & Confort line has a proven efficiency in reducing redness ensuring a unique softness and lasting comfort to the skin. This is the only complete care line for skin with delicate sensitive zones and fragile capillaries on the cosmetic market.
