Your skin barrier is composed of sebum, dead skin cells, sweat, and a healthy microbiome - it should be slightly acidic, with a ph between 4.5-5.5, and these protective oils waterproof your skin and help keep the skin cells tight and flat, protecting you from the elements (heat and cold and water, and also from bacteria and other microbes that cause acne). I don’t believe there are different “skin types” so much as there are different ways peoples skin barrier is harmed and thrown off balance, which contribute to skin problems such as dry, red skin, acne, eczema, and oily skin.When your acid mantle is too alkaline you tend to suffer from dry, cracked, scaly skin, eczema and even acne. If your skin is too acidic you can experience acne breakouts as well. Our skin barrier is damaged from over washing, harsh chemicals, tearing/removing the skin by exfoliating through scrubs and acids, using hot water, dehydration, and is affected by food choices. We recommend following the “less is more” when it comes to cleansing, especially if you are just starting to repair your skin barrier.

This is part of a simple facial system meant to help support and repair your skin barrier, nothing more, nothing less. Your skin is a reflection of external factors (your skin barrier) and internal factors (nourishment, stress, emotions, hormones, beliefs, etc)…. Helping to support and create an healthy skin barrier, especially if you have been stripping yours, will help create supple, soft, clear, vibrant skin, but if your internal terrain is not supported, it will not fix all your skin issues, nor should we want to. Repair your barrier so you can then read your skin and what it’s telling you about your body and your life.

Each product is an essential step in repairing your skin barrier, and each product may or may not be needed once fully repaired. Use daily or every other day, or once a week or once a month depending on your life and environment and needs.

The full size bottles will give you a 2-6 month supply. Use within 1 year.
