Often it is the people with sensitive skin who ask questions and seek help.
Skin product after skin product can get a bit tiring and expensive, when all they do is keep making your sensitive skin red, irritated, inflamed, prone to breakouts or dry and patchy.
Especially when sensitive skin is crying out for help.
Microbiome health and skin barrier repair is the answer for sensitive skin, but how do we find something that actually makes a difference.
theskinbiotic® is a brand dedicated to microbiome and barrier care and they are experts on sensitive skin. The founder is a pharmacist, a skincare formulator and the owner of very sensitive skin.
This is the ultimate 3 step skincare routine for sensitive skin to support skin barrier and skin microbiome health.
STEP 1. Oil Cleanser
One cleanse, only an oil cleanser. This may have you gasping for oxygen, but I say it again, oil cleanse only. This style of gentle cleansing prevents you from stripping your skin of the natural lipid layer that makes our skin barrier and supports your skin microbiome.
So what is the best way to use an oil cleanser?
First get about a ten cent size in you hand and using your fingertips massage very gently, to all areas of the face. Then with a warm water soaked cloth remove the oil, bringing with it makeup, dirt , sunscreen and dead skin cells. Then dry with a fresh cloth or towel.
Your skin should feel refreshingly cleansed, plump and hydrated rather than tight and dry.
STEP 2. Apply a single all in one Prebiotic Serum suited to your skin concerns.
Here are two of the best prebiotic skincare products.
-
The Essential Inspiration PREBIOTIC MINIMAL FACIAL SERUM, is designed to be used alone for skin that is already in a flare up or has a skin complaint such as redness, patchiness, oiliness or dehydration.
-
When you skin is an unhappy state, It is best to avoid all actives for a while and focus on getting your barrier and biome back to a strong, balanced and resilient stage.
- The Something Kind of Wonderful PREBIOTIC SIGNATURE FACIAL OIL SERUM, designed especially for sensitive skin that is not in a flare up, and also wants something that is not going to irritate, whilst still having active skincare ingredients like vitamin C and CoQ10, plus blue-light protect and skin smoothing actives, our super stable vitamin C (THD ascorbate) and prebiotics. It is just what you are looking for.
STEP 3. SPF (if you are going outside) because that belongs in every skincare routine.
Thats it !! Simplifying your skincare routine is really important.
