Why your cleanser is crucial!
The biggest favour you can do your skin is to get your cleanser right – it is the cornerstone of your skincare and ultimately the key to healthy skin. It’s not so much HOW you cleanse but WHAT you use which is really important.
What makes skin sensitive or inflamed?
Sensitivity manifests as some or all of the following: burning, itching, stinging, redness, heat, flaking, blistering or broken skin.
What is the skin barrier?
In order to understand how to take care and improve skin health it is essential to understand the structure and function of the skin. Once you learn about its delicately balanced structures and processes it makes complete sense to treat the skin in a particular way.
What can I do to create a strong and resilient skin barrier – in other words achieve REALLY healthy skin!?
Our skin barrier is our defence against the outside world and below are ways to minimise disruption to the ‘defence systems’ within it. When our skin barrier is weak there is a higher chance of our skin showing signs of stress including dermatitis, redness and irritation.

Gut Skin Brain Connection
