What Makes Skinkraft Customized Products Ideal For Your Skin?

A Brief Of What We’ve Learnt From Our Research

 

Your Ideal Products Should Suit Your Skin

The most important finding is that the ideal product for your skin has to based on your skin.

That's because your skin's characteristics, nature, and behavior are unique to you. Just like your fingerprints.

 

Skin Type Is Just The Beginning

Two people can share a common skin type. However, within the same skin type there's often a lot of difference.

For example, you and your friend could share the same skin type, but your friend can be more sensitive to sunlight (Her face gets red and hot when she’s outdoors in the sun). In such a case, you and your friends requirements (and ideal products) are different.

 

Skin Health Heavily Depends On Its Moisture Levels

The better moisturized your skin, the better your overall skin health.

Multiple factors such as softness, suppleness, glow, and wrinkles are the direct result of your skin’s moisturization level.

 

Healthy Skin Barrier = Healthy Skin

Your skin's natural barrier, also known as the stratum corneum, holds the key to two critical skin health goals:

1. How to improve your skin’s health
2. How to maintain your skin’s health.

The skin barrier holds the key to both of these goals since it regulates moisture and prevents bacteria and other external aggressors from entering your skin.

   

Heavy Moisturizers Aren't The Answer

Though skin moisture levels are crucial for skin health, heavy moisturizers aren’t the solution. That’s because although the moisturizer offers temporary relief, it doesn’t address the key issue of depleted ceramides and lipids - damage to your skin barrier.

Besides, a heavy layer on top of your skin also leads to breathability issues and the clogged pores.

 

Your Skin Is Always Changing

Skin undergoes changes based on many factors. This influences the kind of care your skin needs.

For example, changes in daily routine affect skin - more time spent in the sun, for example, leads to different skin characteristics.

So does the weather, geography, your diet, and your previous skin care routine, to name a few.

 

pH Imbalance Is A Source Of Skin Trouble

Your skin's ideal pH is between 5.5- 6 - slightly acidic.

This is because your skin pH plays a crucial role in preventing inflammation on your skin by killing off bacteria and other environmental aggressors that make contact with your skin.

Unfortunately, skin’s pH balance can be disturbed by using products with harsh ingredients, like many oil-control face washes. Your pH can also be altered due to overexposure to the sun.

In case of an imbalance, skin becomes dry, can develop white patches and becomes prone to problems such as acne.

If your skin feels “squeaky clean” - dry and tight - after washing, exfoliation or a skin care procedure, it means your skin’s pH has been altered.

Given the above findings, the best daily skin care is one that is free from harmful ingredients, pH balanced, repairs your skin barrier, and most of all, is customized and suitable for your skin.
