Skincare tips for healthy skin barrier.

Maintaining a healthy skin barrier is essential for overall skin health. A strong skin barrier protects your skin from environmental stressors, moisture loss, and harmful bacteria. Healthy skin is glowing skin. Here are some tips to help you keep your skin barrier healthy:

🍀🍀Tips for Keeping Your Skin Barrier Healthy
First and foremost, remember to wash your skin.   
Never wash your face with hot or warm water, as they will strip your skin of its lipids. Water is your first line of defense to protect the skin barrier.

🍀🍀 Wash with cool water, and pat dry only—no harsh rubbing. I love the Korean KRX probiotic cleanser.

🍀🍀 Use a good moisturizer daily to lock in moisture. Look for ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid.

🍀🍀 Exfoliate gently with chemical exfoliants like AHAs or BHAs, avoiding harsh scrubs. If you have dry skin, then skip exfoliating with scrub. Only do more damage.


🍀🍀Wear broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) daily, even if it's cloudy. Reapply every two hours when outdoors.


🍀🍀 Drink plenty of water and eat foods rich in healthy fats (like avocados and nuts) and antioxidants (like berries and leafy greens).
 Following these tips can help keep your skin barrier strong and healthy. Listen to your skin and adjust your routine as needed.
