No one’s skin is exactly like another! We all have different areas of concerns when it comes to loving the skin we are in... any of these sound familiar?
🤷🏿♂️ DEHYDRATION - when skin isn’t hydrated it appears dull & dry. The lack of elasticity showcases fine lines and expression lines! As we age our skin retains less and less water - so drink UP!
👩🏻ELASTICITY & FIRMNESS - a decrease in collagen and elastin make skin appear wrinkled and saggy. Especially after the age of 30 the cheeks, eyelids, décolletage and contour area seem to sag.
👵🏼 FINE LINES & WRINKLES - these are upon the TOP skincare problem areas in the world BUT no ones wrinkles are cause by the same things - so why are we buying generic solutions for personalized issues? Delicate skin around under eyes, brows, and ‘crows feet’ are usually lacking in hydration and collagen.
🙍🏾♀️ DULL & UNEVEN SKIN - skins opacity can be affected by lack of oxygen and nutrients. Pollutants can make skin seem grey or patchy. Dead skin cells need to be exfoliated away often to make room for regenerated nutrient-enriched cells.
💁🏻♂️ PIGMENTATION - sun spots anyone? The melanin in your skin is what causes dark spots, red patches and discoloration. Brightening agents help even out skin where melanin has accumulated due to sun exposure, hormones and some times skin conditions. If your spots are changing or growing rapidly make sure to contact a Dermatologist!
🙋🏻♀️ OILY SKIN/ENLARGED PORES - shine, oil and clogged pores are the signs here. Diet, stress, pollution and fatigue are major contributors. Irregular skin occurs when pores are open which significantly changes the finish of your makeup too! Heat and humidity cause the skin to sweat, however, if the skin is clogged the toxins being released in sweat become trapped.
🙇🏼♀️SENSITIVE SKIN - red, irritated, burning, flakey... you have sensitive skin! Look for calming ingredients, soothing nutrients and remember if the skin becomes inflamed or burns more than a slight tingle there is most likely an allergy... time to call the Dr!
So, you see, there are common problems HOWEVER the contributing factors are the CAUSE of skin conditions. I heard someone say, ‘EVERY pore shrinking product I could find but it never worked because it wasn’t personalized to ME and my daily habits’. Times they are a changin....
Love, Nature & Science come together to make sure no one settles for the generic treatment... you are YOU and there is no one YOUER than YOU.
