Our skin is our body's largest organ. It's constantly in contact with the outside world, protecting us, making us feel, and essentially a mirror of our health. Yet, most of us view skincare as a purely aesthetic choice. However, healthy skin isn't just a glowing appearance; it's also a sign of a strong immune system and a balanced life.
Every year, September is celebrated worldwide as "Skincare Awareness Month." This special period is an opportunity to remember the importance of our skin in daily life and to review our care habits. It's the ideal time to repair skin after the harsh effects of summer and prepare it for winter with greater resilience.
The goal this month is for everyone to better understand their own skin, learn to care for it regularly with the right products, and make healthy skin awareness an integral part of daily life. Because skincare isn't just for looking beautiful; it's also essential for a healthy life.
In this month's article, we, as Dermoskin, experts in sun and skin, share with you our practical suggestions that will help you refresh your skin care awareness.
Basic Steps to Take During Skincare Awareness Month
Know Your Skin Type and Discover the Appropriate Care
Dry, oily, combination, normal, or sensitive—there are different products suitable for each skin type. A skincare routine should be tailored to your specific needs. Discovering your skin type lays the groundwork for a healthy foundation. So, how do you determine your skin type? Dry, oily, or sensitive skin is easier to identify by looking at how it looks and feels. However, your skin can also be oily but dehydrated, dry and blemish-prone, or combination, mature, and sensitive. If you're unsure about your skin type, a skin analysis at a clinic or, occasionally, at a pharmacy will help you gain detailed information about your skin and develop a more accurate routine.
Keep Your Skin Clean
Clean skin is the foundation of skincare. Morning and evening, use a cleanser appropriate for your skin type to remove dirt, oil, and makeup.
Oily skin: Foaming cleansers or gel-based products.
Our recommendation: Dermoskin Facial Wash Foam or Acgun Facial Wash Gel
Dry and sensitive skin: Gentle, cream- or oil-based cleansers.
We recommend: Ato Cica Cleansing Oil or Be Bright Facial Wash.
Moisturize Regularly
Maintaining your skin's moisture balance is the most effective way to prevent premature aging and irritation. Make sure your moisturizer is appropriate for your skin type. Seasonal changes can disrupt moisture balance, so consider using ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramides, which offer more intense hydration.
Sensitive skin: Mild, hypoallergenic moisturizers.
We recommend: Ato Cica Exosome Moisturizing Cream, Ato Probiotic Cream, Ato Probiotic Balm or Dermoskin Intensive Face Cream .
Combination skin: Balancing and oil-free moisturizers.
We recommend: Acgun Day Cream, Be Bright Peptide Complex Cream, Ato Cica Exosome Moisturizing Cream or Dermoskin Intensive Face & Body Moisturizer.
Choose Care Products Suitable for Your Skin Type
When using serums, masks or special treatment products, consider your skin type and needs.
For blemishes: Products containing niacinamide or vitamin C.

When using serums, masks or special treatment products, consider your skin type and needs.
For blemishes: Products containing niacinamide or vitamin C.
We recommend: Be Bright Vitamin C Plus Cream, Be Bright Liposomal Vitamin C Complex Serum, Be Bright Arbutin Complex Cream, Be Bright Arbutin Complex Serum, Be Bright Tranexamic Acid Complex Serum.
Anti-aging: Retinol or peptide-based serums.
We recommend: Be Bright Liposomal Collagen Peptide Complex Serum, Be Bright Peptide Complex Cream, Be Bright Retinyl Face Serum, Be Bright Liposomal Caffein Complex Eye Serum ,
Be Bright Sun Protection Serum.
Continue Sun Protection
Sun exposure is one of the primary causes of skin aging and blemishes. Dermatologists recommend using SPF 30+ to protect against UV rays, even in cloudy or cool weather.* Remember that the effectiveness of your sunscreen is temporary and you should reapply it throughout the day.
Daytime routine: SPF 30 and above, broad spectrum UVA/UVB filters.
If you are outside: Refresh every 2 hours.**
Our recommendation: AcnMat Face Protection Gel Cream, Be Bright Pigmentyl Sunscreen, Sensitive UV Protection Cream, BB Cream Blemish Balm, Be Bright Liquid Foundation, Celeritt SPF 25
Perform Regular Skin Checks
Monitoring changes in moles or spots and consulting a dermatologist increases the chance of early intervention. That's why the Skin Cancer Foundation recommends checking your skin from head to toe once a month. If you notice new spots, moles that are increasing in size or thickness, redness, sores that don't heal in three weeks, or any other unusual changes, you should see a dermatologist immediately for an examination.
Healthy Living Habits
Skin health is not just about external care, it is also about your lifestyle. Drinking enough water, increasing antioxidant intake in the diet, adequate sleep and stress management contribute greatly to skin health.
Let This September Be the Beginning of Good Habits
Skin Care Awareness Month is the perfect time to prioritize your skin health and develop regular skincare habits. Consider September an opportunity to better understand your skin and give it the care it deserves. Because we know: Those who approach their skin with awareness make the most valuable investment in their health.
Until we see you in our next article, take good care of yourself and your skin.
