Collagen Banking: How to Invest in Your Skin’s Future

Collagen Banking: How to Invest in Your Skin’s Future

Collagen is the unsung hero of youthful, healthy skin. Often referred to as the “building block” of our skin, collagen is a structural protein that provides firmness, elasticity, and strength. However, starting in our mid-20s, our body’s natural collagen production begins to decline, leading to wrinkles, sagging, and a loss of that coveted youthful glow. This is where the concept of collagen banking comes in—a proactive approach to preserving and boosting collagen levels to keep your skin looking its best for years to come.

In this blog, I’ll explore three key strategies to “bank” collagen effectively: skincare, treatments, and lifestyle.

1. Skincare: Building Your Collagen Portfolio

Your daily skincare routine plays a foundational role in collagen preservation and production. Here are some essential steps and products to include:

a. Sunscreen: Your Anti-Collagen Loss Shield

UV radiation is the leading cause of collagen degradation. Wearing a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every day—yes, even on cloudy days or indoors near windows—protects your skin from collagen-damaging UVA and UVB rays.

b. Topical Retinols: Collagen Stimulators

Retinol is a vitamin A derivative that stimulate fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production. Over time, regular use of retinol can improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and boost elasticity.

c. Vitamin C: The Collagen Guardian

Vitamin C serums are powerful antioxidants that not only protect existing collagen from oxidative damage but also play a critical role in collagen synthesis. Apply it in the morning for added protection against environmental stressors.

d. Peptides: Collagen Boosters

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that signal your skin to produce more collagen. Incorporating peptide-rich creams or serums can be a game-changer for maintaining skin resilience.

e. Hydration: Supportive Care

Proper hydration, through hyaluronic acid serums and moisturisers, supports the collagen matrix, preventing the skin from looking thin or dehydrated.

2. Treatments: Supercharging Your Collagen Reserves

Professional treatments can provide a more targeted and intensive boost to your collagen levels. These procedures work by stimulating the skin’s natural repair processes or delivering active ingredients deep into the dermis. Here are some of the most effective collagen-enhancing treatments:

a. Microneedling

Microneedling involves the use of tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural wound-healing process and stimulating collagen production. When combined with serums like growth factors or PRP (platelet-rich plasma), the results can be even more impressive.

b. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

While primarily known for targeting pigmentation and redness, IPL treatments also stimulate collagen production by heating the deeper layers of the skin. The result is smoother, firmer skin with improved texture and tone over time.

c. Radiofrequency

Treatments like Radiofrequency use heat to tighten the skin and stimulate collagen production deep within the dermis. These are particularly effective for lifting and firming sagging areas.

d. Exosomes

Exosomes are tiny, cell-derived messengers packed with growth factors and regenerative molecules. When applied with treatments such as microneedling, they supercharge the skins healing process and significantly boost collagen production, leading to faster, more dramatic results.

3. Lifestyle: Daily Habits for Long-Term Gains

What you do outside the treatment room is just as important as the skincare products you use or the treatments you undergo. Your lifestyle choices can significantly influence your body’s ability to produce and maintain collagen.

a. Nutrition: Feeding Your Collagen Factory
• Protein-Rich Foods: Collagen is made of amino acids like glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline, which you can find in lean meats, fish, eggs, and bone broth.
• Vitamin C-Rich Foods: Citrus fruits, bell peppers, and strawberries help boost collagen synthesis.
• Zinc and Copper: Found in shellfish, nuts, and seeds, these minerals are crucial for collagen production.
• Antioxidants: Leafy greens, berries, and green tea combat oxidative stress, protecting collagen stores.

b. Supplements: Bridging the Gap

Hydrolyzed collagen supplements have been shown to improve skin elasticity and hydration while supporting the body’s natural collagen synthesis. Look for products with added vitamin C and hyaluronic acid for maximum benefit.

c. Stress Management: Protect Your Collagen Reserves

Chronic stress increases cortisol levels, which can break down collagen over time. Practices like mindfulness, yoga, and regular exercise help keep stress in check.

d. Avoid Smoking and Excess Alcohol

Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption accelerate collagen breakdown by increasing oxidative stress and reducing blood flow to the skin.

e. Sleep: Repair and Replenish

Collagen production peaks during deep sleep. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night, and consider using a silk pillowcase to minimize friction and prevent skin creasing.

Why Start Collagen Banking Early?

Think of collagen banking as an investment in your future skin health. The earlier you start, the more reserves you’ll have to draw on as natural production slows with age. Even if you’re already seeing signs of aging, it’s never too late to adopt these strategies and boost your collagen levels.

Conclusion

Collagen banking is a holistic approach that combines skincare, professional treatments, and healthy lifestyle choices to preserve and enhance your skin’s natural strength and elasticity. By incorporating these strategies into your routine, you’re not just fighting the visible signs of aging—you’re proactively ensuring that your skin remains vibrant, youthful, and resilient for years to come.

The Ultimate Guide to Teen Skincare: Expert tips for Healthy, Confident Skin

The Ultimate Guide to Teen Skincare: Expert tips for Healthy, Confident Skin

The obsession with skincare amongst teens definitely signifies a shift where self-care and appearance are being valued higher than ever before. Social media platforms have a lot to play in this with influencers constantly promoting skincare making it seem more and more accessible.
There is both a positive and negative impact of this trend, the increased awareness about skincare is great, as getting into good habits early will really future-proof the skin. However, there seems to be a pressure to have the ‘perfect’ skin, and thus teen are adopting complex skincare regimes with a view to achieve the unachievable, and very often damaging their skin in the process.

What a Teens skincare routine should look like
A teens skincare routine should be simple yet effective, there are many teenagers now being led by social media and introducing multiple unnecessary products into their regime.

The focus should be skin health maintenance, and preventing issues like acne without overloading or striping the skin.

Generally a teens skincare regime should consist of a gentle cleanser, moisturiser and sunscreen. All formulated for their specific skin type and condition. If they are dealing with a skin condition such as acne then a specific treatment product may be introduced, but always get advice. It’s when the teens start guessing or following TikTok trends that things can get messy.

A skincare routine should be followed both morning and night, to both remove any impurities, pollution, and makeup from the day, and to remove sweat and waste products that are secreted from the skin at night.

Managing Oily or Acne-prone skin
Oily and acne skins need to firstly ascertain their skin type, acne can affect dry skins also, so using products that are designed for an acne skin can very often dry the skin out, exacerbating the condition.
If the skin is oily then look for a gentle salicylic cleanser that can be alternated with a normal cleanser so not to over treat the skin. Non-comedogenic products will help reduce the potential of breakouts from a certain product. Clay masks are also great for absorbing excess oil and purifying the skin.

What Products Should Teenagers Avoid
Products teenagers should avoid are the high-concentration retinoids, especially the prescription strength as these can be far too harsh for their skins. Physical exfoliants are also a no-no, these are very often used too aggressively and can really damage the skin causing micro-tears in the epidermis. A mild chemical exfoliant, like lactic acid and salicylic are better.
Alcohol based toners, can give that squeaky clean feel to the skin I know many teens are looking for, however this is just an indication that the skin has been stripped of its natural oils, and this can lead to further breakouts.

Must-Have School Skincare Staples
Some school staples in terms of skincare are, a good compact SPF to reapply throughout those bright sunny days, even in winter. Blotting papers are great for absorbing excess oils and taking the shine away, as well as a spot treatment that can be applied to any blemishes whilst at school. If a teen is dealing with dry skin, then a moisturising or hydrating mist to give a little relief through the day is also beneficial.

What Should Parents do if Their Teen Has Severe Acne
For any parents dealing with a teenager with severe acne it’s imperative to seek professional advice. Severe acne not only a medical condition, but can very often be treated differently on different people. In many cases it’s a case of management rather than clearing it up altogether.
Taking a proactive but supportive approach to help their teen manage the condition, can improve both their skin and emotional well-being.

Here at re/skin we see many Teens, we focus on educating them on why their skin is behaving this way, put them on a simple but effective skincare regime and if necessary see them regularly for treatments to further manage their skin.

If you have or are a Teen looking for help with your skin, our Teen facials are for you. Your first treatment will last around 1.5 hour and you will receive a full size cleanser to take away with you to get you on the road to healthier skin. You can book your appointment here or drop us an email with any questions you may have, we are dedicated to ‘changing lives one skin at a time’ and would love to help you with yours!

Skin Diagnostics – A Balanced Perspective

Skin Diagnostics – A Balanced Perspective

 

In the ever evolving world of skincare, staying ahead with innovative solutions is crucial. Boots, a leading pharmacy chain, has recently launched a skin condition diagnostic app that promises to revolutionise how we approach skin health. Although this app offers some advantages in terms of ease and accessibility, it also comes with some drawbacks.

Our founder Rebecca explores both sides to give a balanced perspective on whether this is right for you and your skin concerns.

Benefits

Quick and convenient. This first thing that does stand out about the app is its efficiency. Users can quickly assess their skin condition with convenience, great for those with busy schedules.

User-Friendly. Deigned with simplicity in mind, it is user friendly and easy to navigate.

Affordable. Cost can very often be a barrier to seeking professional advice. This is a cheap alternative to traditional dermatological consultations making it accessible to everyone.

Professional collaboration. A strong point is its partnership with medical professionals. This ensures the advice and guidance is based on medical knowledge and protocols.

Discreet and private. For many discussing their skin conditions can be an uncomfortable experience. The app offers a discreet way to seek advice, which can be beneficial for those that feel embarrassed about their skin issues.

The Drawbacks

A lack of comprehensive questioning. While the app provides quick assessments, it falls short of gathering detailed information about the users family history, diet, and lifestyle factors. These elements are all crucial in understanding and diagnosing skin conditions accurately, and this omission can lead to incomplete assessments that can be the key to treating a condition successfully.

A focus on medication. Another significant limitation is the app’s apparent focus on prescriptive medication as the primary treatment option. While medication can be effective, it’ not suitable for everyone and for all conditions. Not all individuals want to go down the medical route, by not offering a broader range of treatment suggestions the app may alienate users would would rather seek alternatives.

Conclusion

Here at re/skin our consultations last around 1 hour, this allows a comprehensive approach, taking into account all factors that can impact the skin. By spending this time with our clients at the beginning allows us to not only get to know our clients and how they feel about their skin, but to build a trusting relationship that really is the foundation of getting great results.

In the world of skincare, no single solution works for everyone, it’s not a one size fits all. We need the time to navigate the whole picture when it comes to skin health, this can’t be done with just a photo and a few generalised questions.

It’s about finding the right tools and resources that suit your individual needs, and yes, this app will be right for some people that are seeking a quick, convenient and affordable way to get professional advice. However, it is important to be aware of its limitations and seek other professional services when necessary, especially as the evidence for a holistic approach to skin health becomes more and more apparent in this fast paced industry.

As always, re/skin is here to support you in navigating these options to achieving the healthiest skin possible. If you would like to explore our options or book your skin health consultation then please either give the clinic a call on 0114 236 2393 or book online here.

The Impact of Stress on your Skin – Understanding the Connection

The Impact of Stress on your Skin – Understanding the Connection

 

In our fast-paced world, stress has become an unavoidable part of daily life for many of us. From work pressures to personal challenges, stress can take a toll not just on our mental well-being but also on our skin.

Our founder Rebecca Elsdon recently contributed to an article in a leading industry magazine Professional Beauty,  on the connection of stress and stress related skin conditions. Read here.

Understanding how stress affects the skin is crucial for maintaining healthy, glowing skin and overall well-being.

Here are several ways in which stress can affect the skin:

1. Increased Sensitivity and Irritation: Stress triggers the release of cortisol and other stress hormones, which can make the skin more reactive and sensitive. This can lead to increased redness, irritation, and discomfort.

2. Acne Breakouts: Stress can exacerbate acne by stimulating the production of sebum (skin oil) and inflammation. This can result in more frequent and severe breakouts, especially for individuals prone to acne.

3. Accelerated Ageing: Chronic stress can accelerate the ageing process of the skin. It can lead to the breakdown of collagen and elastin, which are essential for skin elasticity and firmness. This may result in wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin appearing earlier.

4. Impaired Skin Barrier Function: Stress can compromise the skin’s natural barrier function, making it more susceptible to moisture loss and environmental irritants. This can lead to dryness, flakiness, and a weakened ability to protect against pollutants and pathogens.

5. Delayed Wound Healing: Stress can interfere with the body’s ability to heal wounds and skin injuries efficiently. This can manifest as slower recovery from cuts, bruises, or other skin trauma.

6. Skin Conditions Flare-ups: For individuals with existing skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea, stress can trigger flare-ups or worsen existing symptoms due to immune system deregulation and increased inflammation.

7. Hair and Nail Problems: Stress can also impact hair and nails. It may lead to hair loss, thinning, or dullness, as well as brittle nails.

Managing stress through relaxation techniques, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and a balanced diet can help mitigate its impact on the skin. Additionally, establishing a skincare routine that includes gentle products suitable for sensitive or stressed skin can provide relief and support skin health during stressful periods.

The impact that stress can have on health and appearance is significant. By managing stress effectively through lifestyle changes and self care practices, we can safeguard our skins health and radiance.

Remember taking care of your metal wellbeing is just as important as caring for your skin. It’s an holistic approach that benefits both body and mind.

So, next time you feel stressed, prioritise self-care and give your skin the love and attention it deserves!

If you are ready to give your skin some love, then why not book in a consultation to start your skincare-selfcare journey. On Saturday 18th May we are holding a Skin Discovery Day where we are offering complimentary mini consultations.  Book here

What Is Blue Light and How Can It Affect Your Skin?

What Is Blue Light and How Can It Affect Your Skin?

Blue light is part of the visible light spectrum, meaning you can see it. It has a short wavelength, which means it has lots of energy and can create oxidative stress.

IN THIS HIGH-TECH WORLD WE NOW LIVE IN, THE SUBJECT OF BLUE LIGHT IS TALKED ABOUT MORE AND MORE. BUT DID YOU KNOW THAT OUR DEVICES ARE NOT THE ONLY SOURCE OF BLUE LIGHT? WE ALSO GET IT FROM THE SUN. IN FACT, UP TO 30% of the rays from the sun are actually blue light.

So team this with sitting at your laptop or scrolling your phone for hours, and we would get a pretty continuous dose of blue light all day long. 

The Effects Of Blue Light

Although it is visible to the human eye, it can have negative effects on our overall health and well-being. 

The effects of accumulative blue light on the skin can cause: 

  • free radicals 
  • inflammation 
  • skin cell damage 
  • damage to the important lipid bilayer that gives our skin its strong barrier
  • increased redness
  • pigmentation 
  • dryness 
  • loss of elasticity and collagen 
  • increase in inflammatory conditions
  • premature ageing

What Can We Do To Prevent This?

So what do we need to do to protect our precious skin cells from this damaging light? 

First and foremost, a sunscreen, but opt for one with a blue light filter too. This is sometimes referred to as an HEV filter, and many of the innovative sun care brands will include this now. 

We need antioxidants and lots of them. So, look at including them in your diet as well as skincare so we are feeding them in from all angles. 

And be conscious of the time spent in front of your screens. If it’s unnecessary, put them down, slap on the sunscreen, and go for a walk. 

We have also had a recent new product launch at re skin in Sheffield. This is a brand new supplement from the Advanced nutrition program and has been designed to not only protect from the effects of blue light but also repair the damage caused. 

Contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatories, helps to inhibit pigmentation and also reduces the breakdown of collagen. 

The research results showed that this new supplement gave a 60% increase in protection from this light. As well as a; 19% decrease in redness, a 17% improvement in hydration and a 15% increase in skin smoothness. This was just by taking 1 of these tablets per day for 8 weeks. 

Conclusion

If you are concerned with any of the skin conditions mentioned or spend a lot of time outside or in front of a device, this is definitely a must to introduce to your skin regime.

Get in touch with us today if you have any more questions on skin care, or take a look at our products and start your journey to perfect skin. 

New Year, New Skin: 5 Skin Habits to Adopt in 2023

New Year, New Skin: 5 Skin Habits to Adopt in 2023

Skin Habits For 2023

Here are my 5 skin habits I would recommend implementing in 2023.

Know your skin is individual

Every person’s skin is unique, and it is important to understand this when it comes to skincare. Don’t always go on the advice of what has worked for a friend, even if their skin may be presenting with the same condition as yours. What works for them may not work for you, as their skin may have different needs and react differently to different products.

It’s essential to take into account factors such as skin type, skin concerns, age, and lifestyle when choosing skincare products. A skin specialist in Sheffield that can provide you with a personalised skincare plan that considers all of these factors. By understanding that your skin is individual and taking the time to find the right products and treatments for you, you will be able to achieve your best skin yet.

Feed your skin from within

Skin health starts from within, and it’s essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle to support your skin. Eating a well-balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals is crucial to provide your skin with the necessary nutrients to maintain its health. Consuming foods rich in antioxidants, such as berries and leafy greens, can help protect your skin from harmful free radicals and keep it looking youthful. Drinking plenty of water is also important, as it helps to hydrate the skin from within and maintain its elasticity.

See a professional

It’s time to take control of your skin and get to know it from a professional viewpoint. By visiting a skin clinic or dermatologist, you will be able to get a comprehensive assessment of your skin, including an analysis of your skin type, skin concerns, and any underlying issues. This will give you a better understanding of what your skin needs and what products and treatments will be most effective for you.

Be consistent

It’s important to remember that your skin is a renewing organ, constantly shedding dead skin cells and regenerating new ones. While topical products and treatments can be effective, using them for a short period of time will not give you long-term results. It’s essential to be consistent and persistent with your skincare routine to see the best results.

Consistency means using your products every day, following the recommended application frequency, and giving them the time to work. The skin takes time to renew and regenerate, so it may take several weeks to see the full effects of a product. It’s also essential to be consistent with your skincare routine and not skip days or miss applications, as this can undermine the effectiveness of the products.

Simplify your skincare regime.

Having a simple and streamlined skincare routine is key to achieving healthy and radiant skin. There’s a common misconception that more products equal better results, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, overloading your skin with too many products can cause irritation, dryness, and breakouts.

Instead, focus on a select few products that are recommended for your skin type and concerns. If you have dry skin, opt for a nourishing moisturiser and serum that contains hydrating ingredients such as hyaluronic acid. If you have acne-prone skin, look for products that contain salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide, which are known to unclog pores and reduce breakouts.

Conclusion: Skin Habits

In conclusion, you now know the best strategies to implement to ensure your skin looks its best. Get in touch with us today if you have questions about getting your skin to top standards. 

Solving Skin Theories: Is Veganuary good for The Skin?

Solving Skin Theories: Is Veganuary good for The Skin?

Is Veganuary good for the skin?

Our question today: Is veganuary good for the skin? It’s that time of year again when we have all overindulged over the festive period and are craving some goodness. Many of us turn to a plant-based diet for January, otherwise known as ‘Veganuary’! So how can this diet change impact the skin? It`s time to discuss another skin theory to ensure you are aware of the best options for you and your skin.

The negative effects of being vegan

A vegan diet is rich in anti-inflammatory foods. And when we cut down on

processed meat, it means we are getting less saturated fats and sugars. This can improve the overall appearance of the complexion and boost radiance. 

A vegan diet can also slow down premature ageing. As we age, our telomeres shorten, and diet can be one of the factors that contribute to this. Introducing a plant-based diet will help to support and strengthen our skin cells at the core, helping them to age much slower.

The negative effects of being vegan

There are some side effects; however, these can be easily managed. A vegan diet would naturally receive less Omega 3 fatty acids and vitamin b12. But this can be overcome by ensuring we have a high level of omega-rich foods such as avocados and walnuts and for your vitamin b12 foods designed to be fortified with b12, such as cereals and some soy products. 

It can also be common when converting to a vegan diet that the skin breakouts. Initially, removing animal and dairy products from your diet can temporarily shift hormone levels until things worsen. Going from meat and dairy eating to removing all animal products can lead to a B12, Zinc and vitamin A deficiency which regulates our cell behaviour.

As already mentioned, if you look for foods fortified with these nutrients, that should help replace what is lost through the meat diet. And like all foods in the food industry, there will be processed vegan options that won’t be as beneficial to the skin and body.

Conclusion

If you have recently moved over to a plant-based diet and are having issues with your skin, then get in touch with our skin clinic in Sheffield. It may be a case of tweaking your skincare regime to suit your new lifestyle and regain that balance once again. We work on skincare in Sheffield to ensure you get the best results possible for your skin.

How To Improve The Skin Around Your Eyes: My 3 Top Tips

How To Improve The Skin Around Your Eyes: My 3 Top Tips

How To Improve The Skin Around Your Eyes

Today I am talking about the area that is often a topic of conversation in the clinic and very often an area of concern for many people. 

The eye area. 

The skin around the eyes is noticeably thinner than the rest of the face. It’s delicate, refined and actually can be as thin as 0.5mm. It’s where we tend to have a lot of expressions, so when we smile, frown, and squint, we tend to create lines around this area. 

As we age, we obviously get that collagen breakdown, the quality of our collagen isn’t as good, and these lines eventually become lines of rest. 

As well as the rest of the face, the eye area is exposed to UV daily. 

The following are my top tips for treating and protecting this area:

1 Always Wear Sunscreen 

With many old sunscreens, you typically can’t apply them right up to the eye. However, more modern sunscreens make it possible for you to apply them over the eyelids to ensure that area is nicely protected. It’s also a great idea to wear sunglasses when possible, which will give you that extra protection. 

The sun is one of the main factors in ageing on the skin, so it’s essential to use sunscreen to prevent this ageing from occurring.

2 Use Products Specifically Formulated For This Area

Compared to the rest of the face, the region around the eyes has a highly distinctive skin type. As a result, the treatment of this region requires the use of distinct formulations and active ingredients in order to avoid causing any unwanted damage or discomfort. 

This means you need the invest in products which are suitable for the eyes, which will prevent the look of ageing from around the eyes.

3 Massage The Areas Around Your Eyes

This area, especially the under the eye, can be very immobile; therefore, we get a slower circulation here, which can cause a buildup of fluid and darkness under the eyes. 

Giving this area under the eyes a light, gentle massage every day is always advisable. Doing it in the morning can really wake those eyes up and help stimulate that circulation and lymphatic system, helping drain away any fluid that may build up in that area.

Conclusion: How To Improve The Skin Around Your Eyes

Following the three tips above, you can keep the skin around your eyes protected and looking its best. 

One last thing, we have an exciting new treatment launching next week. You will find all about it in next Friday’s email. 

We can specifically target this area as well as the neck, which is also very delicate. Myself and Kayleigh did our training on Wednesday this week, and immediately waking up the next day, my eyes looked better. They felt less hollow on the under-eye area and not as dark. 

I tend to be quite vascular under there, so can look darker or almost take on a blue tone. I always have to wear concealer in this area. 

Thursday morning, waking up, I just didn’t need quite as much.

My Top Picks To Go With My Top Tips

Want to know 3 top products to improve
your skin?

Let’s admit it! We would all like to have beautiful skin. But there are occasions when we might not be sure which products would be best for our skin or even which adjustments would be most beneficial. This week, Rebecca from ReSkin Clinic will share with you some of her favourite products that might assist you in following the suggestions and leave you achieving fantastic skin.

Dermaviduals Cleansing Milk

(If you know, you know) I am completely in love with this cleanser! Most of my customers will agree that this is the best cleaner I have ever had the opportunity to keep in stock. The DMS cleansing milk is gentle enough to use on even the most sensitive skins. Because it has a dermal membrane structure, it is skin-identical. There is not a single ingredient in this cleanser that the
skin cannot recognise, and there is also nothing that can disrupt the skin’s natural protective barrier. Remove impurities and makeup, including mascara, in a manner that is extraordinarily delicate but still highly efficient. Do not pass up the opportunity to cleanse with anything like this. It fulfils all the requirements one would have for an effective cleanser.

Dermaviduals Enzyme Skin Renewal

Another best seller! The very outermost layer of the skin can be gently sloughed off with the help of this enzyme powder. It loosens and eliminates any skin cells lingering around a bit longer than they should be, but it leaves the rest of the skin cells alone, ensuring that the barrier is maintained in a healthy and robust state. It works wonders on under-the-skin bumps that won’t go away for people with sensitive skin and those with other skin types. This is the product for you if you want your skin to have a clear and smooth appearance.

AlumierMD Moisture Matte Sunscreen

I usually say products can’t multitask, but this one can. On the one hand, it is an excellent broad-spectrum sunscreen with antioxidants, providing essential protection against the sun. On the other hand, the antioxidants give it an additional anti-ageing kick. And the other, it’s a basis for everything! Therefore, using this product will allow you to maintain the colour and coverage of your makeup while keeping it in place. It’s possible that you won’t ever need to buy another foundation again! This product can help prevent premature ageing of the skin by providing the skin with additional moisture, thereby making the skin appear more youthful and revitalised.

Conclusion to prevent premature ageing

There you have it! The three top products that many of my clients and I have in their skincare armour. The health of your skin ought to be your primary concern when it comes to using skin care products. Don’t fall for the marketing hype around new-to-market products. And instead, spend time looking at the details and, where possible, speak to a skin care professional like
myself or anyone in my team at ReSkin Clinic. Some of the products above can only be sold after a consultation with us, so please get in touch and book a short consultation. Don’t let this put you off. See it as a positive. Our skin is literally the biggest organ in our bodies and one of the most complicated. It acts as the barrier keeping everything in via an airtight, watertight shield. You must protect this. Thank you for reading, and as ever, I or anyone at the clinic is here for any advice. Just get in touch with
any questions.
