Restore Your Skin Barrier with Switch2Pure
Posted by Estela Cockrell Aug 15th 2024
When it comes to achieving radiant, healthy skin, one of the most crucial factors is maintaining a strong and resilient skin barrier. Several factors can damage your skin barrier, leading to dryness, irritation, and sensitivity. Here are some common culprits: harsh products loaded with synthetics and harmful ingredients (check out our blog to SWITCH NOW), environmental stressors, hot water, poor diet/ gut health (blog: Glow from the Inside Out: Gut/Skin Connection), and aging.
But what exactly is the skin barrier, and why is it so important?
Your skin barrier, also known as the stratum corneum, is the outermost layer of your skin. It acts as a protective shield, keeping moisture in and harmful elements out. Here’s how you can support and repair your skin barrier using Switch2Pure clean beauty products.
1. Switch2Pure Bright & Shine Refining Cleanser
Start with the Bright & Shine Refining Cleanser with Konjac Sponge to gently cleanse and exfoliate without stripping essential moisture. It leaves your skin fresh and balanced, setting the stage for the rest of your routine. Use: Morning and night on damp skin, then rinse with lukewarm water.
2. Switch2Pure Be Glowy Hyaluronic Serum
Next, apply the Be Glowy Hyaluronic Serum to deeply hydrate and plump your skin. Packed with hyaluronic acid, peptides and antioxidants, it ensures your skin stays hydrated and smooth. Use: Apply a few drops after cleansing, morning and night.
3. Switch2Pure Well & Glow Rejuvenating Serum
Boost your skin’s resilience with the Well & Glow Rejuvenating Serum. It brightens and revitalizes the skin while providing essential nutrients to repair and protect the skin barrier. Use: Layer this serum after the Be Glowy Hyaluronic Serum, both morning and night.
4. Moisturizer: Intelligent Elixir Antioxidant Moisturizer or One Love Organics Skin Savior Wonder Balm
Lock in hydration with the Intelligent Elixer Antioxidant Moisturizer or One Love Organics Skin Savior Wonder Balm. Both options nourish and strengthen the skin barrier with powerful antioxidants and rich emollients. Use: Apply generously after serums, twice daily.
5. SPF: Suntegrity Moisturizing Mineral Face Sunscreen & Primer or CLE CCC Cream
Daily sun protection is crucial. Choose between Suntegrity Moisturizing Mineral Face Sunscreen & Primer or CLE CCC Cream to shield your skin from UV damage while providing a smooth base for makeup. Use: Apply every morning as the last step in your routine.
6. Facetory Cloud Velvet Restoring Sleeping Mask
End your day with the Facetory Cloud Velvet Restoring Sleeping Mask to repair and restore your skin overnight. This rich mask hydrates and revitalizes, ensuring you wake up with refreshed skin. Use: Apply as the final step in your nighttime routine, leave on overnight.
7. Gut Health & Skin Connection
Your digestive system plays a crucial role in how your skin looks and feels. When your gut is balanced and thriving, it efficiently absorbs nutrients and keeps inflammation in check, which reflects in your complexion. However, an unhealthy gut—often due to poor diet, stress, or imbalanced microbiota—can lead to skin issues like acne, redness, and dullness. By nourishing your body with a diet rich in whole foods, nutraceuticals, and plenty of hydration, you support both your gut and your skin, creating a foundation for a natural, healthy glow that truly comes from within.
