So we live in AUSTRALIA and we all know by now the importance of sunscreen, many of us still never fail to come up with excuses not to use it every day: too greasy, makes your skin look white, it smells. But the biggest turn-off when we consider the use of sunscreen is the breakouts and irritation it can cause.
People living with Rosacea have a hard time establishing a skincare routine that can both be effective at keeping the symptoms of rosacea at bay - whilst also focusing on things such as breakout, skin texture and anti ageing.
Often the world of cosmetics is one product addresses one concern, so how do you support rosacea whilst also using actives?
The skin positivity movement has paved the way for a new era of skin neutrality, which believes skin is just skin, and shouldn’t be pressured to feel more beautiful. The key word being MORE! We already are beautiful.
While social media has done a lot to further the cause of the #skinpositivity movement, the ever present and over saturated use of filters and photo editing means the true concept of a healthy self-image is very distorted.
So, if we are speaking the truth we've all been there!... stumbled into bed after a fun night out and woken the next morning to a face full of messed up makeup and mascara from one ear lobe to the other.
The time it takes to even contemplate standing at the bathroom mirror when it might be swaying side to side - let along actually do your full skincare routine seems all to hard. This is where the addition of a Cleansing Cloth is a quick tool that will wipe away your mascara in seconds
Sunscreen might seem plain and simple, but like most things in life - its not! The wrong sunscreen can cause problematic build up that will leave your skin acne prone, irritated and feeling reactive. Its so worth taking the time to find a formula that works for you.
You have most likely heard about physical and chemical sunscreens before - but do you really understand what this means and how these ingredients work? Let's delve in a little deeper and find out.
Until recently, the main methods of washing your face involved your hands, a cleanser and sometimes a face cloth (if you were a skincare junkie).
Over the last decade there have been a flood of new and innovative devices from sonic machines to hand held cleansing brushes (similar to that of an electric tooth brush) that can be used daily on your skin.
Are these creating more harm than they are good? Short answer: YES, they are.
There are many factors to healthy and glowing skin but it all begins with how we wash it, and what we wash it with!
Without getting too science-y (is that even a word?) our skin is our biggest functioning organ – built to protect. Within itself it has a barrier we often refer to as its very own eco system that sits on the surface making sure everything behaves the way it should.
