Ask Our Experts Gaia Chinniah Holistic Care & Wellbeing } I've heard of serious skin issues in children and adults, such as eczema or psoriasis being cured by switching to high quality organic skincare. How does this work? ~ Skin conditions of any kind can be very distressing, uncomfortable and embarrassing for the person who has them and often we will use anything that will keep the condition under control without considering the long -term effects. We often wouldn’t consider what the ingredient make up is of the product just as long as it works and takes away our discomfort. I have been in this situation myself! Eczema and psoriasis are both very common skin conditions and the causes of these conditions can vary from person to person but there will be a root to the cause. Eczema for example can start at birth or sometimes flare up at certain times in a person’s life. When a skin condition lies dormant for most of your life and suddenly appears, there is usually a trigger that will cause it. For example there have been cases of synthetic fragrances in products causing severe skin conditions and once that has been eliminated the skin slowly goes back to normal. Acute symptoms, however, are rarely the case when it comes to conditions like eczema and psoriasis, with the cause usually linking to an internal imbalance in the body and external triggers. Skin conditions such as these are often the cause of a sensitive skin barrier as well. There are many topical treatments such as steroids which are often used to treat symptoms and they can be very effective. However, the dilemma with conventional treatments can be the lack of understanding to the long term negative impacts to the body. Quick fixes often mask symptoms but it’s finding the root of the cause and what the triggers the skin to flare up which will be the key to keeping the condition under control. Developing a good skin care routine with a high quality organic skin product can be helpful to a lot of sufferers but it doesn’t guarantee that your skin condition will be cured. What a certified organic skin care routine could offer you is treatment, hydration and nourishment without the harsh ingredients or synthetic fragrance and pesticides. Developing a skin care routine like this when you have a skin condition can be helpful in maintaining the PH balance of your skin and promoting the renewal of new healthy skin. It could also provide the nutrition that your skin may be lacking as well as prevent the absorption of ingredients that the body can’t process properly. You’d be surprised at how many plant derived extracts can be healing for skin conditions. Trying organic skin care as an option would be a good idea as it is best to eliminate toxic chemical exposure wherever possible and assist the skin to heal naturally. In many cases skin conditions can be managed by recognizing the triggers, keeping a healthy skin care routine and being flexible with it. That may make a difference in itself. Keep a note of the conditions that worsen your condition like certain foods, allergens, irritants, etc. Stress too, can bring on skin symptoms. Children can often suffer from skin conditions as well and their skin is a lot more sensitive and delicate than adults’. Therefore children are more susceptible to the absorption of the products used on their skin. Some certified organic brands will have baby balms and treatments that could be gentle and effective but again the severity of the skin condition must be considered for effectiveness. Like all health issues it can be trial and error to find a routine that suits you and your unique skin however if your skin condition is severe you should seek professional advice from your healthcare practitioner. 6 BabyTalk | May 2019
