All the skincare you need to address redness and inflammation
Did you know redness is one of the most common skin complaints in Ireland? Whether you are experiencing patches of discoloration or living with long-term rosacea (a chronic inflammatory skin condition that is said to affect approximately 10% of Irish adults), tackling redness can be both challenging and frustrating, so we have put together a collection of products to help you manage your symptoms and boost your skin health!
The Skingredients Red Alert Bundle aims to boost skin resilience and protect against future flare ups with the help of three essential products:
Our multi-use Cleanse Off Mitt for a simple but efficient, product-free cleanse.
Skingredients Skin Protein Anti-Ageing Retinoid Serum, a hydrating serum which contains retinyl palmitate and beta carotene (a precursor to vitamin A) to re-educate the skin and boost cell renewal.
Why is it great for redness? If tolerated, vitamin A can help redness by repairing the skin at a cellular level. Comprising of the rock star ingredient retinyl palmitate (the fatty derivative of vitamin A) Skin Protein offers more progressive approach to the traditional vitamin A product and unlike most retinols, can be used AM and PM. Retinyl Palmitate is particularly good for skin that is prone to redness as it is natural to skin and helps support skin cells. Skin Protein also contains vitamin C, which triggers collagen synthesis within the capillary wall. Subsequently, this strengthens the capillary and reduces the appearance of redness, making this product a must-have in combatting redness amongst the celts.
Skingredients Skin Shield Moisturising and Priming SPF50 PA+++. Sun protection is essential for everyone but as sun damage can worsen redness, it is even more crucial to apply SPF daily (and top up every 2 hours as advised by the Irish Cancer Society). This lightweight, mineral parasol offers complete broad-spectrum UV + HEV protection and is suitable for sensitive skin types.
Why is it great for redness? It helps to shield the skin from the sun whilst also protecting against sun damage which manifests visually as redness. A survey conducted by National Rosacea Society found that 81% of patients with rosacea noticed a flare-up of redness after sun exposure. So, don’t be a skin sinner… everyone must apply a daily broad-spectrum. SPF and that includes those with redness. The Skingredients Skin Shield SPF 50 PA+++ uses zinc oxide, a physical SPF filter, that’s suitable for the most sensitive skin. It’ll “shield” skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays, HEV light emitted from screens, infrared, and pollution.
Suitable for all skin types (although Skin Protein should be avoided by mama’s to be and those with extremely sensitive skin), both products can be used daily and are available to buy separately or as part of the Red Alert Bundle exclusively @skingredients.com now!
