What is your skin trying to tell you?

Our skin has a sensitive, reactive and temperamental nature and far too often its mistreated or simply neglected. It has a lot to say, and if you're not listening, it's gonna shout and scream until it gets your attention. Its rants come in many forms such as hives, itchiness, irritation, eczema, redness, and acne to name a few.
Strong-willed, skin is affected by the choices of nourishment we decide to put inside of our bodies as well as external factors. The thin barrier called the acid mantle is what shields us from harmful bacteria, viruses, and other potential contaminants that might penetrate the skin. Our job is to maintain a healthy barrier function by encouraging cell turnover with gentle forms of exfoliation, hydration and most importantly a properly designed skin care routine for skin type and conditions. Understanding your skin's behavior and all its efforts in communication is the first step in creating balanced, calm, happy skin.
