FORTIFYING<br />
SKIN BARRIER<br />
FUNCTION<br />
The skin’s barrier function (or malfunction) plays<br />
a crucial role in maintaining healthy, hydrated<br />
skin. The outermost layer of the skin, known as<br />
the stratum corneum, acts as a barrier to prevent<br />
water loss and protect against environmental<br />
stressors. When the skin’s barrier function is<br />
compromised, it can lead to dryness, sensitivity,<br />
and a whole host of other skin problems.<br />
During the cooler months, use skincare<br />
products that contain ingredients including<br />
hyaluronic acid, glycerin and ceramides, which<br />
help to lock in moisture and strengthen the skin’s<br />
barrier function.<br />
Just as you would layer your outer garments<br />
to keep warm, try layering your your products<br />
to help lock moisture into your skin and give an<br />
extra boost of hydration. Always apply serums<br />
first, then follow with your moisturiser.<br />
When applying creams and serums, massaging<br />
your skin in a light circular motion will also help<br />
to improve blood circulation to your skin and<br />
promote better penetration of active ingredients.
