Q&A
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Creme 93 good for combination skin?
Yes. Creme 93 from Yon-Ka Paris is formulated specifically to balance surface oils while nourishing drier areas, making it well suited for combination skin. It combines oil-controlling botanicals and antioxidant vitamins to mattify the complexion, plus cold-pressed olive oil to deliver proteins and lipids that support skin health. Lime and ylang ylang essential oils are included for their adaptogenic properties that help calm and restore balance. People who have an oily T-zone with dry cheeks will benefit most because the texture controls shine without overloading dry areas. If your skin is extremely dry in patches, you may prefer layering Creme 93 over a hydrating serum for additional moisture.
Will Creme 93 help control oil and minimize pores?
Yes. Creme 93 provides an oil-controlling action that helps mattify the complexion and reduce the appearance of pores. The formula blends mattifying agents with antioxidant vitamins that protect lipids from oxidation and botanical extracts that help balance sebum production. Cold-pressed olive oil supplies nourishing proteins to support skin barrier health, which can reduce excess oil compensation and pore visibility over time. Those with oily or combination skin seeking a refined, less shiny finish will see the most benefit. If you have active cystic acne or need clinical pore reduction, combine Creme 93 with targeted treatments or consult a skincare professional.
Can I use Creme 93 with serums and sunscreen?
Yes. Creme 93 layers effectively with both serums and sunscreen when applied in the correct order. After cleansing and applying any water-based or treatment serums, allow those products to absorb, then apply a thin, even layer of Creme 93 to mattify and nourish the skin. Finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen in the morning. The lightweight texture absorbs well under makeup and sunscreen, so it works for full AM and PM routines. Those using active serums—for example with vitamin C or hyaluronic acid—should allow each product to penetrate before applying Creme 93 to maintain efficacy and avoid pilling.
Is Creme 93 suitable for sensitive skin?
It depends. Creme 93 contains calming and balancing botanicals, cold-pressed olive oil, and antioxidant vitamins that support skin health, which can be soothing for many. However, it also contains lime and ylang ylang essential oils, which may be sensitizing for very reactive skin. If your skin is mildly sensitive, you may tolerate the product well and benefit from its adaptogenic oils and nourishing lipids. For highly reactive or allergy-prone skin, we recommend a patch test behind the ear or on the inner forearm for 24 to 48 hours, and consulting a dermatologist if you have concerns. A cautious approach ensures both safety and comfort.
How does Creme 93 differ from heavier moisturizers?
Creme 93 is lighter and mattifying compared with heavier, occlusive moisturizers. It is formulated to control surface oils and provide a matte finish while delivering antioxidant vitamins and cold-pressed olive oil for nourishment, rather than relying on thick occlusives to lock in moisture. Lime and ylang ylang offer adaptogenic balancing properties, so the product targets oil regulation and pore refinement rather than maximum occlusion. Those who need oil control and a refined complexion—particularly combination or oily skin types—will prefer Creme 93. If your skin is chronically dehydrated or very dry, a richer cream designed for intense barrier repair may be more appropriate.
How long will one 50 ml jar of Creme 93 last with regular use?
Approximately 6 to 8 weeks with twice-daily use. A 50 ml jar contains enough product for the face when using a modest amount—typically a pea-sized to half pea-sized portion per application. If you apply Creme 93 once daily or only to targeted areas such as the T-zone, the jar can last longer, potentially 8 to 12 weeks. Frequency of application, amount used, and whether you extend it to neck or décolletage will affect longevity. Adjusting the quantity to your skin’s needs helps you balance product performance and duration.
Can Creme 93 reduce signs of aging?
Partially. Creme 93 contains antioxidant vitamins and nourishing botanical oils that protect skin lipids and support barrier function, which can help prevent environmental damage that contributes to visible aging. Its balancing action and pore-refining effects also improve overall skin texture and radiance, which reduces the appearance of early aging signs. However, Creme 93 is primarily a balancing, mattifying moisturizer rather than a targeted anti-wrinkle treatment. For more pronounced wrinkle reduction, combine Creme 93 with clinically proven anti-aging serums or treatments as part of a comprehensive regimen advised by a skincare professional.
Is Creme 93 safe to use during pregnancy?
Consult your healthcare provider. Creme 93 includes lime and ylang ylang essential oils, which some clinicians advise pregnant patients to avoid or limit because certain essential oils can be absorbed and may have physiological effects. The product also contains antioxidant vitamins and nourishing botanicals that are generally supportive for skin health. Because recommendations vary by practitioner and pregnancy stage, the safest course is to show the ingredient list to your obstetrician or dermatologist before regular use. If you prefer to be cautious, consider patch testing or temporarily using a moisturizer formulated specifically for pregnancy after consulting your provider.
How should I apply Creme 93 if I have an oily T-zone and dry cheeks?
Apply selectively for best results. Start with a clean face and any treatment serums. Use a small, pea-sized amount of Creme 93 and focus a thin layer on the oily T-zone to control shine and minimize pores, then add slightly more product to the drier cheek areas to provide nourishment and support the skin barrier. You can also mix a drop of a hydrating serum into the cream for particularly dry patches. Creme 93 is suitable for both AM and PM routines; in the morning follow with sunscreen. This targeted approach balances oil control with hydration where you need it most.
Can I wear Creme 93 under makeup?
Yes. Creme 93 creates a matte, refined base that works well under makeup. Its lightweight, oil-controlling texture absorbs quickly and helps reduce surface shine, which supports longer-lasting foundation wear. Apply a thin, even layer and allow one to two minutes for absorption before applying primer or foundation to avoid pilling. Those with very dry skin who want a dewy base can blend Creme 93 sparingly with a hydrating serum, but for combination or oily skin, Creme 93 alone provides an optimal mattified canvas for makeup application.
