A common question I get asked is, “Which foundation should I be using?” Let me firstly say that, I am a firm believer that when it comes to foundation – less is more. I also believe that the older one becomes, that less make-up should be necessary.

Skin sensitivity comes in a variety of forms however, one consistent trait is redness.

Redness and sensitivity can be attributed to a number of skin conditions, namely; impaired barrier, dehydration, broken capillaries, unstable pH and then more severely; dermatitis, eczema or infection.

Stress, or being stressed, is a commonly heard and used term that I believe we have become quite complacent about.

Some would venture to say that we thrive on stress or putting ourselves under pressure – daily. Stress, in any form, is not good for us especially if experienced over a pro-longed period of time.

One of the biggest skin concerns we deal with at this time of the year is DRYNESS. Besides being an irritating infliction, it is a very normal one to experience.

We can attribute dryness to a varying number of factors, but for the sake of this newsletter I am going to stick to an area we all lapse in from time to time... our home care routine.
