#SalonAtHome - Professional guide for dealing with Isolation Skin at home!

Isolation_Skincare

 

 

What is isolation skin?

Isolation skin is skin that is changing as a result of our modified lifestyles and wavering emotional state during lockdown. This virus is causing us all sorts of stress with regards work, finances, relationships and so on.  It’s a very worrying time for us all and our skin is bearing the brunt of this stress.

Now that we are spending more time indoors our intake of important skin loving vitamins D and C have reduced. This can sometimes flair up eczema and psoriasis causing dry irritated skin. Plus, breathing in artificial air from heaters and air conditioners exacerbates these conditions even more.  

On a positive note, like the virus, isolation skin won’t last forever and our experts are on hand to ensure your skin doesn’t add to your list of concerns during this testing time.

 

Did you imagine emerging from self-isolation with fresh rejuvenated skin after weeks of rocking that no-makeup look? Well you are not alone! Sadly as the weeks of self-isolation roll on a lot of us are grappling with the opposite effect, an increase in pesky skin issues!  

 

Our Expert Advice on Skin Issues

The key ingredient to treat dry skin is hyaluronic acid. Hailed as one of the most effective hydrating ingredients in a skincare routine, hyaluronic acid is essential in maintaining skin’s moisture levels. In addition to providing surface hydration, high levels of hyaluronic acid improves appearance in skin firmness, smoothness, and plumpness.

Our skincare experts also recommend the following products to treat dry, dehydrated and dull skin at home

Advanced Nutrition Programme Skin Omegas+ Supplements

Advanced_Nutrition_Programme_Skin_OmegasSkin Omegas+ supplements help to nourish dry skin from the inside out. Formulated with vitamin A, a key ingredient for skin health, as well as omegas 3 and 6 fatty acids. It acts like an internal moisturiser for the skin,nourishing dry skin and giving that luminous glow. Advacned Nuritition Programmes Fish Oils are farmed off the coast of Peru & are FOC certified. Once the land on their boats, they are immediately processed before being shipped to Norway for further testing. No harmful chemicals are used to purify their oils. ANP also triple test their oil protocol to ensure freshness and stability. 

Image skincare. Hydrating sheet mask

Image_Sheet_MaskThis hydrogel mask delivers instant hydration to skin that is dry, dehydrated and dull. Cooling and soothing, it refreshes and revives thirsty skin with mineral-rich waters and that all important hyaluronic acid. It is worth noting we are big fans for Sheet Masks for Instant hydration, you wouldn't get long term hydration from sheet masks but if you have an event or something coming up, they are fantastic for getting you a quick burst of hydration to having you looking fresh quickly.

Image skincare Vital C Hydrating Anti Ageing Serum

Image_Vital_C_Hydrating_SerumVitamin C is an anti-oxidant that triggers the skin to heal itself when applied topically, which accelerates the production of collagen and elastin. This serum is super hydrating and brightening.     Fact: As Vitamin C is not stored in your body, eating foods rich in this vitamin, such as oranges, will also aid your skin and assist with immunity. Supplements can also help and we recommend Advanced nutrition programme Vit C plus
