ZARQA skincare routine by skin type
ZARQA offers natural and fragrance-free skincare with various ranges, tailored to your skin type. Here you will find routines by skin type, with age recommendations and which products you can use at each step: cleansing, replenishing, caring (with or without SPF), and protecting.
Dry skin
Dry skin feels tight, especially after washing. The skin may be dehydrated, has fine pores and is sometimes prone to itching or allergic reactions. The texture is often dull and can feel somewhat rough.
Age & skincare range:
- Under 25 years old: Use the Nutritive Day Cream and Nutritive Night Cream.
- Over 25 years old: Choose the Extra Dry Skin Plus Day Cream with SPF and matching night cream.
Step 1: Cleansing
Cleanse your skin with the mild Sensitive Cleansing Tonic. Do you also want to remove makeup? Then use the Sensitive Cleansing Milk.
Step 2: Replenishing
Add extra care with the Hydraboost Serum for hydration, the Sensitive Eye Cream for the delicate area around the eyes and the restorative Silver Cream.
Step 3: Caring
Use a day cream during the day tailored to your SPF needs:
In the evening, finish with the matching night cream.
Step 4: Protecting
Do not forget to also protect your skin during the day from external influences such as sun, cold and dry air. The SPF in the day cream already helps with this, but prolonged exposure to UV radiation requires extra protection.
Dehydrated skin
Dehydrated skin often feels tight and can be rough or less supple. Dehydrated, with fine lines, a dull appearance and sometimes itching. Although the skin is not necessarily dry, it lacks moisture in the deeper layers. This calls for intensive hydration and protection.

Normal skin
Normal skin is supple and soft in texture with good blood circulation. The pores are fine to normal and the skin shows little to no blemishes. However, it is important to properly care for normal skin to maintain balance and prevent skin aging.
Age & skincare range:
Are you under 25 years old? Then the Hydra range is best suited to your skin. For skin from 25 years onwards, choose from the Hydra Plus range, the Anti-Age or Anti-Age Plus ranges. The ‘Plus’ variants contain an SPF for daily protection against UV radiation.

Oily skin
Oily skin is characterized by enlarged pores, a shiny T-zone and increased sebum production. This is often accompanied by pimples or blackheads. The skin can sometimes be accompanied by oily hair. For all ages, the Clear Skin range from ZARQA is a suitable choice.

Step 3: Caring
Hydrate and care for your skin without weighing it down with the Clear Skin Day and Night Cream. This cream helps restore the skin balance and visibly reduces blemishes.

Although oily skin burns less easily, sun protection is still essential. Consider a day cream with SPF or additional sun protection that is specially suited for blemished skin.
Thin red skin (rosacea or couperose)
This skin reacts quickly to temperature changes, certain skincare products or weather conditions. Often red spots or small vessels are visible on the cheeks and the skin can be extra sensitive in combination with allergies.
