Irritated, sensitive skin & rosacea

The loss of the skin's three major defense forces leads to constant sensitivity

1. Physical barrier: Damaged skin barrier

The skin is like a wall made of cement and bricks. When the cement between the bricks leaks away, it causes the wall to leak. Likewise, when skin structural proteins and lipids are lost, external allergens and pollutants can invade the skin. Allergens and pollutants can stimulate the skin's immune response and induce inflammation. The skin's ability to lock in moisture will also decrease, accelerating water evaporation, causing dry skin and even peeling problems.

2. Biological barrier: Imbalance of skin flora

There are billions of microorganisms living on the surface of the skin, including both good and bad bacteria. Beneficial bacteria are mainly lactic acid bacteria, which can produce lactic acid to balance the pH of the skin; they can also produce antibacterial proteins to inhibit the growth of bad bacteria. Bad bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus and acne bacteria, can trigger skin inflammation, causing redness and swelling. Therefore, balancing the ratio of good bacteria to bad bacteria is particularly important for controlling sensitive symptoms.

3. Chemical barrier: Imbalance in skin pH

Skin pH affects skin metabolism. The pH of healthy skin should be slightly acidic, about pH 5.5. Frequent use of strong alkaline or strong cleansing products will destroy the skin's natural pH and cause pH imbalance. In addition, a weakly acidic skin surface helps inhibit the growth of bad bacteria, while an unbalanced pH level may cause excessive growth of bad bacteria.

The three major defense barriers help and complement each other. If any one of them fails, the skin may fall into a vicious cycle of continuous sensitivity.

Glowbioitcs PDBs probiotics rebuild your healthy skin barrier, balance your skin's microbiome, and help you regain healthy and calm skin.

3% PDBs extracted from lactococcus has been medically proven to have the following effects:

• Evidence-based DNA performance test effectively rebuilds skin protein structure

→ Reduce water loss by 72% in 4 days ¹

→ Strengthens skin and reduces redness

• Increase defense protein by ⁸⁰ % in 48 hours

→Balance the ratio of good bacteria to bad bacteria

• 4 days to thicken the epidermis by ⁷² %

→ Strengthen skin's defense against external environmental pollution: such as ultraviolet rays, photoaging, PM2.5, etc.

• Restore the pH balance of the skin and inhibit the growth of bad bacteria

The recommended skin care routine is as follows

Step 1: Gentle Cleansing

Wash face morning and night with a mild cleansing gel. The cleansing gel does not contain SLS/SLES, an ingredient that destroys natural healthy sebum. It can protect the skin's natural beneficial bacterial film and enhance the skin's resistance. Will not cause over-drying issues.

Suggested product: Probiotic Gentle Cleansing Gel

 

Step 2: Rapidly relieve redness

The power of probiotics combined with the excellent soothing ingredient SymCalmin® reduces itching and redness by 50% in 30 minutes ⁴ , restoring balance and calming the skin. It also hydrates the skin.

Recommended product: Hydrating Balancing Essence

 

Step 3: Repair the skin barrier

Start by balancing the ratio of good bacteria to bad bacteria. Fight inflammation at its source. Contains phospholipids and vitamin B3 to rebuild a healthy skin barrier, rebuild skin protein structure, and reduce stimulation from external allergens. It absorbs quickly and has a light, non-sticky texture. Continuously improve facial redness caused by rosacea.

Recommended product: Gentle Calming Anti-Inflammatory Cream

 

Night Repair

If you have oily, sensitive skin and acne problems, you can consider adding vitamin A serum to your skin at night. The mildest Retinol formula is recommended. Resets the skin renewal cycle, inhibits oil production and accelerates skin renewal. Helps prevent future acne breakouts and reduce the appearance of acne marks.

It is recommended to use it two nights a week at first, and adjust the frequency of use according to skin condition. You can use Hydrating Calming Balancing Serum before using Vitamin A Serum and Gentle Calming Anti-Inflammatory Cream after to minimize irritation.

Recommended product: Vitamin A Antioxidant Purifying Serum

 

Daytime protection

Sunscreen products must be used in the morning to reduce sun damage and also reduce inflammation and sensitivity caused by high temperature and heat. Our sunscreen is a water-free and oil-free formula with a lightweight, non-sticky texture that can also be used to modify skin blemishes and cover redness .

Recommended product: All-physical antioxidant sunscreen SPF30

 

Gentle exfoliation

Use an exfoliating product one to two days a week. Contains 5% lactic acid for gentle exfoliation. Lactic acid is a larger molecule among fruit acids, with lower irritation and higher moisturizing properties. It is also suitable for acne-prone and sensitive skin. Use once or twice a week in the evenings when you are not taking Retin-A.
