Skincare by Skin Concern

It’s likely that you’ll have multiple skin concerns at different points in your life. Skin concerns can be acne, hyperpigmentation, textural issues, sensitivites and redness, and aging—both preventative and reducing the signs. Looking at your lifestyle is one way to treat concerns as many will be due to hormones, stress, medications, diet, and of course, sun damage.

Regardless of which skin concern you have, your first step is to make sure you have suncare in your daily skincare routine, even in winter. Protecting your skin from the damaging, aging effects of the sun will be a game-changer for all skin concerns, and is the best anti-aging product you can buy. Other anti-aging products will focus on regenerative, reparative ingredients such as plant stem cells and EGF (epidermal growth factor) to lift, firm, and boost collagen production. Products for hyperpigmentation include brightening ingredients to lift any dark spots or post-inflammatory marks with vegan lactic acid. Products for textured skin will focus on smoothing, refining, and exfoliating with retinol, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs)—including glycolic acid. Acne products will be centered on balancing excess oils, purifying and clarifying with salicylic acid and oil-free formulations. With sensitive skin, opt for soothing, calming, anti-inflammatory products with aloe vera, shea butter, and hyaluronic acid for hydration.
