This Skin Care Brand Customizes Products To Target Your Period Skin Problems

Periods have a habit of throwing a wrench into things, whether that's making your pants uncomfortably tight thanks to the bloating, to running havoc on your skin thanks to the hormones. But there's one brand set on making that whole endeavor a little easier, particularly in the skin care category. Knours customizes its skin care to your menstrual cycle, helping you stay glowy and blemish-free throughout the whole month.

While not everyone breaks out when their hormones spike or fall, some people do, and it creates a frustrating cycle of constantly battling back acne. But when you treat your skin the same every week without taking into account its changes, it's no surprise that what might work for most of the month goes haywire during your period. Understanding that, Knours entered the market to give hormonal acne battlers some options.

While there are already a few skin care lines available that try and tackle pimples that pop up thanks to one's period, Knours is different in that it wants to sync up with your own specific cycle. By doing so it can recommend which products in their collection would be best for you, as well as when to use them. In order to do that, it comes with an app called U-Kno, which will have you input your cycle dates and answer some questions about your moods throughout the month, preferences, and how your skin changes throughout the weeks. Having all that gathered, it will then analyze which personalized products would be best to use depending on when your flow hits, when you're ovulating, or when your hormone levels start dropping again.

Not only will the app provide you with tailor-made skin care recommendations, but throughout the month it will also give you tips on how to weather your cycle in the best and easiest way, as well as give you beauty and skin care information from dermatologist and beauty experts that is backed by extensive research. It's providing a whole new way to jump into skin care — it's not just a cleanser purchase, but a whole educational experience.

The skin care collection itself comes with eight different products, giving you a nice selection to choose from. They range in price point anywhere between $6 to $48 and even come in bundled options, depending on what you want to focus on. For example there's a nourishing package or a hydrating set, and they come with a discount. To give you an idea what is available, below are some of the options.

If your hormones wreak havoc on your skin, Knours just might be able to help.
