If you have papery skin, then your skin is sensitive, fragile and papery to the touch; fine-textured with no visible pores; prone to developing fine lines and wrinkles.
(1) Use a mild cleanser with ingredients such as marsh mallow to help repair damage. Shea butter and geranium, rosewood, and bitter orange essential oils (EO) will leave the skin supple.
(2) A calming spray of chamomile and orange blossom waters, and honey and nectar extracts will soothe, tone and help prolong hydration.
(3) Exfoliate this type of skin with a rich mask. Oatmeal and white clay provide a gentile, refining action.
(4) A hypo-allergenic cream containing evening primrose oil to stimulate cell renewal and moisturizing agents derived from sugar and nectar will strengthen the protective barrier.
