Hey Beautiful! I want to talk to you today about the connection with the sensitive skin and the mind and body.  Do you ever find that your skin seems to get easily irritated or react to products that your friends use without any issues?

Greetings beautiful! If I listen carefully, I’m sure I can hear sleigh bells off in the distance and they seem to be getting closer. Yes, I’m excited! One of the things most of us look forward to when it comes to Christmas is the food that we all indulge in. There is so much on offer at this time of year and it can be very tempting to throw caution to the wind and eat and drink what we want over Christmas. However, this should come with a word of warning if you suffer from sensitive skin. Our diet can have a massive effect on our skin, so what we put in, can start to show on the outside.  ..read more

Hello gorgeous! Did you know that Christmas is just over two weeks away now? Has it come around as fast for you as it has for me?

Hello skin beauties! How are you feeling? Can you believe that it is Autumn already? There are a lot of celebrations to be had around this time of year, but if you have a skin condition, the fact that winter is on its way might not fill you with joy.

She felt as though she was totally on her own support wise until she found The Beauty of Eczema™ community of sensitive skin angels who were experiencing what she was going through with her sensitive skin. That is ..read more
