We all want beautiful, flawless skin. However, at Seacra we believe that real beauty comes from healthy skin. It’s what’s going on inside that really matters. One of the best skincare tips we can give you to help you achieve that glow, is looking into the health of your skin barrier.
Want clear, smooth, glowing skin?
It comes down to one thing: a healthy skin barrier. If you don’t have a healthy skin barrier, your skin will show signs of dryness, discoloration as well as fine lines and breakouts. Damage to your skin’s barrier can happen without you being aware of it; the membrane may be harmed by anything from lifestyle choices and daily stress to harsh chemicals in products.
To keep your skin barrier healthy and strong, or to strengthen it if is already showing signs of age, read on for our skincare tips.
You may have searched ‘the best skincare tips for women’ and felt overwhelmed by the list of products you need to purchase. We believe that it’s unnecessary, and even harmful to the environment, to use too many different products or ingredients in your skincare routine. We believe that simple is often best when it comes to skincare. There’s no need for an extensive collection of products with dozens of ingredients if one product can deliver a myriad of benefits and have just as big an impact on your complexion!
What are the four skincare steps?
We’ve simplified our skincare routine by eliminating the extra steps of layer upon layer—from hyaluronic acid, vitamin C and retinoids to niacinamide—to one gel that moisturises, repairs, hydrates and strengthens the skin barrier.
Seacra’s Recovery & Repair Gel contains a blend of ingredients that help strengthen the skin’s natural barrier function. Starting with our main core ingredient- red algae, other extracts include Chamomile and Calendula as well as jojoba oil.
If you have a damaged skin barrier and sensitive skin, we advise that you stop overusing exfoliants and decrease your use of strong active ingredients such as retinoids, AHAs or BHAs. The best part is that our red algae gel—which contains natural anti-oxidants —is a great alternative to retinoids without the side effects and its antioxidant is proven to be 6,000 times more potent than Vitamin C and 550 times more potent than Vitamin E.
Our four-step skincare regimen is as follows:
Cleanse your skin, apply a toner to tighten pores and remove any dirt or oil, then smooth on Seacra Recovery & Repair Gel to moisturise and repair dry patches. Finish by applying sunscreen every day to protect your skin from damaging UV rays.
Our goal is to focus on one product that can deliver many skincare benefits, thus replacing most of the skincare products in your routine. If we use fewer products—fewer are produced and less natural resources are utilised!
