A simple (but important) step in skin health

Want to know one of the most important steps to ensure healthy functioning skin that looks good… It’s the first, “simple” step in your skincare routine….cleansing!

A healthy skin barrier with the correct pH, creates a protective shield otherwise known as an ‘acid mantle’, which ensures that the skin is able to function optimally, with the right barrier to bacteria and moisture control.

Ever experienced that feeling of tightness and sensitivity when using a cleanser? It may be due to ingredients like surfactants that can aggravate your skin’s lipids and proteins and cause “after wash” tightness, dryness, irritation and even itching …..indicating damage to the skin barrier. We also know that if the Ph factor of the cleanser is not correct, the cleanser can alter your skin lipid levels (your skin’s natural oils).

The right cleanser is a gel-based cleanser that will keep the skin in a more acidic/neutral state – clean and hydrated.

Cleansing is just a simple step to consider when investing in your skin – it all starts with a clean morning and night. Why not give it a go?
