The #1 Skincare Mistake I See (That’s Totally Fixable!)

One of the biggest skincare mistakes I see women over 35 making? Damaging their skin barrier without realizing it.

If your skin feels tight, flaky, irritated, or extra sensitive, chances are your barrier is screaming for help. Over-exfoliating, using too many actives without realizing it, or stripping your skin with the wrong cleanser can:

🚩 Make fine lines more visible (dehydrated skin = deeper wrinkles)

🚩 Trigger redness & sensitivity (because your barrier is compromised)

🚩 Leave your skin looking dull & tired (when it should be glowing!)

How to Fix It?

✔️ Ditch stripping cleansers – Start with an oil-based cleanser that removes makeup, SPF, and buildup without disrupting your barrier. My Radiant Renewal Oil Cleanser does just that—gently melting away impurities while nourishing your skin.

✔️ Be mindful of exfoliation & actives – Vitamin C in the morning, retinol at night, exfoliating a few times a week—sound familiar? Overloading your skin can lead to irritation, breakouts, and a weakened barrier. This is where having the right esthetician (hi, it’s me! 🙋‍♀️) can help you fine-tune your routine.

✔️ Nourish your skin barrier – A good facial oil or balm locks in hydration and keeps your skin resilient.

✔️ Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! – Layer in lightweight hydration with a botanical mist or hydrosol. I love using Blissoma’s Serene Sacred Waters Mist to replenish and refresh the skin throughout the day.
