IS ENVIRON GOOD FOR SENSITIVE SKIN?

Sensitive skin or Reactive skin is something that we come across frequently.

When our skin is working at it’s best, it has the protective layer that locks in moisture and prevents anything penetrating through it and causing issues. When this layer gets damaged, which can be caused by a number of factors, your skin becomes sensitive or reactive to things in the environment or what you use on it topically.

The best way to think of this is ‘irritated.’ If your skin is irritated it will feel like one, some or all of the below:

  • Itchy and tight

  • Red

  • Blotchy

Sensitive skin is more delicate, and more susceptible to reactions caused by external factors - weather, pollution, chemicals, makeup, household cleaning products and general cosmetics.

WHEN SHOULD I START USING ANTI-AGEING PRODUCTS?

Have you ever wondered when the best time is to start using anti-ageing skincare?
We hear the statement: 'my mum's skin was amazing so mine will be too!’ frequently as well.
I don’t want to be the fun police or anything but this isn’t necessarily the case…

We control 80-90% of the way our skin will age. It’s a fact that 80-90% of the way we age is determined by what we do to the skin. Sun exposure, stress, alcohol, smoking, diet, digestion - all of these things will hugely impact the ageing process long-term.

This means that only 10-20% of the way we age will be down to genetics. So if you’re solely basing how you think you will age on those further up in your family tree… you may well be disappointed.

Maybe you think you should start using anti ageing skincare when you turn 30? 40? Perhaps when you hit the big 5-0?
