"A SLOW MOVEMENT IN THE BEAUTY INDUSTRY, ALREADY FOR SOME TIME. NOT JUST IN CERTAIN SKIN PRODUCTS BUT THE APPROACH TOWARDS SKIN AND SKINCARE. ADDRESSING THE CAUSE RATHER THAN THE SYMPTOMS MIGHT TAKE LONGER, BUT HOW LONG DID IT TAKE FOR ACNE AND DRY SKIN TO MANIFEST ITSELF? CORNEOTHERAPY MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO ACHIEVE HEALTHY FUNCTIONING SKIN BY CORRECTING AND RESTORING THE SKIN BARRIER. "

3 SKIN TIPS AND FUNDAMENTALS I EMBRACE WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO CARING FOR THE SKIN BARRIER

R E B U I L D I N G 

Experiencing sensitivity? A range of skin concerns making your skin feel sensitized? You most likely have a skin barrier that's leaky and permeable, open to pathogens, irritants, and allergens.
Mother Nature intended for our skin to protect us from harmful substances, keeping things out but also in. 

Common signs for a disrupted skin barrier can be redness, irritation, uneven texture, open comedones, dry and flaky skin. During first time consultations, I see many with at least one of these symptoms.  
Avoid products and treatments that compromise the skin barrier and look for skin-caring ingredients. Artificial Fragrances and preservatives are the No1 sensitizers that cause problems and skin concerns.

Nutrients for your skin. Inside an out. Antioxidants, ensure healthy and functional skin cells and are key to protect the skin from oxidative stress that causes further inflammation. 
Take a closer look at your SPF. Does it protect you against UVA and UVB rays? Is the product fit for your skin type? 

MYTH: A high SPF number means you're protected for many hours. Not all sunscreens are made equal and establishing your photo-type is essential when it comes down to sun protection and even certain skincare treatments such as IPL and laser.

Keep your skin intact and luminosity and radiance consistent. Using skin-friendly ingredients keeps your barrier functional and healthy. Avoiding harmful substances creates sustainable skin health that will care for the skin throughout your lifetime. 

Cruelty-free, Earth-friendly and Reef friendly are great signs and standards but look further and check the label. For the label lovers, not talking high-end design but delve into the INCI (ingredients) on the label. This will give an indication on how skin friendly the product actually is.

Ask "WHY?"

Do I really need this product, makeup, shampoo, primer...
Will my skin be better for it and help with sensitivity, rosacea, pigmentation, premature ageing... For instance, SHOULD I MIX SKIN CARE RANGES?

A: You should never mix skincare ranges.

Each company uses a variety of ingredients, actives, and delivery systems in their formulations and it's possible the ‘actives’ could be incompatible. Active ingredients are what make a product effective. The problem that occurs with mixing the wrong actives is that they can turn into a potential irritant and aggravate existing conditions or cause allergic reactions. But they can also cancel each other out and make them ineffective.
