Många av oss känner till tarmflorans betydelse för vår allmänna hälsa, däremot är hudmikrobiomet inte lika väl etablerat. Under de senaste åren har vikten av vår hudflora (mikrobiom) blivit alltmer känt eftersom att det verkar vara viktigt för att hålla vår hud i ett hälsosamt tillstånd...
The status of your skin health is to a large extent a reflection of your lifestyle. Everything we put in our body, from carrots to tobacco smoke, affects your skin. That is why some lifestyle habits can cause premature skin aging and result in unhealthy skin. Our lifestyle is thought to account for 75% of our skin status, while our genes account for a mere 25%. Because of the huge impact, your lifestyle has on your skin, we have put together a science-based guide that will hopefully help you in creating positive lifestyle habits for your skin.
Skin cream contains emollients to preserve moisture in the skin, preventing it from becoming dry and flaky. There are both synthetic emollients, such as squalene and mineral oils, and natural emollients such as lanolin and cocoa butter.

Winter, heat, water, dry air, lots of handwashing, soap and sanitizer. A normal day in our life can really take its toll on our poor hands!

Huden är ett av kroppens viktigaste organ, förutom att tjäna som vårt yttersta försvar mot sol, dåliga bakterier och farliga ämnen så fungerar den som ett slags skyltfönster mot omvärlden och berättar en hel del om vilka vi är.
