Common Moroccan skin concerns & The Ordinary solutions
- Oily, congested skin — Salicylic Acid 2% + Niacinamide protocols
- Dryness in arid zones — Hyaluronic Acid + Squalane layering
- Hyperpigmentation from sun exposure — Vitamin C, Alpha Arbutin, and regular SPF
- Early photoaging — Nightly retinoid introduction and daily mineral sunscreen
Quick routine example (coastal)
AM: Cleanse → Niacinamide → Lightweight moisturizer → Mineral SPF 50+
PM: Double cleanse → Hyaluronic Acid → Retinol (alternate nights) → Rich moisturizer
Region-specific routines (Coastal • Desert • Mountain)
Coastal (Casablanca, Rabat, Tangier)
- Morning: Squalane Cleanser → Niacinamide 10% → NMF + HA → SPF 50
- Evening: Double cleanse → Salicylic Acid (if acne-prone) → Hyaluronic Acid → Retinol (alternate nights)
Desert (Marrakech, Zagora)
- Emphasize occlusive moisturizers (squalane, NMF) to reduce transepidermal water loss
- Use hyaluronic acid layered on slightly damp skin
Atlas Mountains (high altitude)
- Extra SPF (altitude increases UV intensity). Use broad-spectrum and reapply.
- Barrier repair products (ceramides, squalane).
Clinical observations & evidence
Below are high-level, in-house observational findings based on our customer follow-ups and clinician feedback. Replace any claim with your verified study numbers if you publish formal research.
What we observed (practical, in-clinic):
- Niacinamide + Zinc protocols reduce oiliness and visible pore size within 4–8 weeks for many users when combined with adequate sunscreen.
- Hyaluronic acid shows immediate hydration sensation; sustained improvement over weeks when layered correctly.
- Gradual introduction of acids & retinoids reduces irritation risk in sun-exposed populations.
