Many people are under the assumption that by using products that are “strong”, it’s better. Equating to stinging and burning means that is works. Or peeling, dry skin is a sign that it is working!
Well what a crock of manure! If your product stings or burns, it means it too strong. If your skin is dry and peeling from a product, it’s disrupted your barrier. There’s this outdated belief that by using these type of products, skin will look better faster. By destroying your barrier, I’m here to tell you that it’s causing inflammation. Our barrier is our protectant! Slow and steady wins the race. Use products that suit your skin until you can increase usage or switch to a more potent item.
