How To Tackle The Effects Of Lockdown On Your Skin

Our daily routines have drastically changed due to the pandemic.

It comes as no surprise that our skin is feeling it too - if you're noticing any dryness, irritation or you're experiencing more sensitivity than usual.

Common factors causing the changes in our skin are stress, a different diet and a lack of Vitamin D.

Another reason is that your skin's micro biome is unbalanced causing a compromised skin barrier.

So what can we do to improve & strengthen our skin barrier?
