Sensitive skin? Take care of it with Herbera
In spring, sensitive skin is more vulnerable. Rising temperatures, a drop in humidity, and more hours of sunlight usually lead to an increase in skin sensitivity, which can translate into dryness, flaking, eczema, and more. To make matters worse, environmental allergens such as pollen can trigger an immune response, and in addition to causing symptoms in the nose, eyes, or bronchial tubes, they can cause hives, rashes, itching, and redness. We often notice these symptoms when we brush against a plant with our legs or arms exposed, or when lying on the grass.
But don't panic, because there are some things we can do to make these symptoms as manageable as possible, or even make them disappear.
1. Follow a diet rich in antioxidants and vitamin B, and drink plenty of water.
2. Wear breathable clothing and shower immediately after exercising outdoors or spending a day in the countryside.
3. Gentle exfoliation. It is very important to remove dead cells and stimulate skin regeneration, as well as to deep-clean our skin, at least at the change of every season. For sensitive skin, this can be a problem because many exfoliants are too aggressive. At Herbera, we recommend our BOTANIK MASK ANTIOX, formulated with antioxidant active ingredients that will leave your skin radiant, revitalized, and free of toxins, and our GREEN TEA KONJAC SPONGE, which gently cleanses the skin, absorbing dirt, improving elasticity, and fighting inflammation.
4. Daily cleansing and hydration. Two basics for your daily routine are the DAMASK ROSE MICELLAR WATER and the ROSEHIP AND CALENDULA FACIAL FLUID. Cleansing and hydration specially formulated for sensitive skin. They will provide you with calm and relief from itching and redness.
5. Adequate sun protection. The best thing for sensitive skin is to protect it from the sun with a natural barrier, that is, a sunscreen with natural physical filters. Our SOLEÁ cream is suitable for sensitive skin, and thanks to its raspberry and licorice oil, it also has great antioxidant power that will protect your skin from external aggressions.
6. Finally, it is very important that you nourish and protect the skin of your entire body, since in spring we start wearing less clothing and it is your skin's first contact with the "outside world" of the year. For this reason, it is also advisable to exfoliate your skin gently with OUR BOTANIK MASK BODY SCRUB, which contains ORGANIC MICRONIZED ORANGE with antioxidant properties, and, of course, moisturize it after every shower with our SOOTHING ST. JOHN'S WORT AND CALENDULA BODY OIL. You will achieve glowing, revitalized skin.
As you know, it is essential to use natural, organic, and vegan cosmetics that are gentle on your skin and provide the calm it needs during this time of year. Don't let Spring alter your skin!!
