Blog Post: Your Personal Skincare Shopper

Welcome to my first blog which is about Navigating Eczema, Nutrition, and Quality Brands with Youxskin

When it comes to skincare, we're all on a unique journey. Some of us are blessed with naturally flawless skin, while others face specific challenges like eczema or acne prone skin. No matter where you fall on the spectrum, one thing is certain: you deserve the very best in skincare. That's where Youxskin comes in – your first personal skincare shopper, dedicated to helping you achieve the skin you've always dreamed of.

There are so many skincare brands out there from Drunken Elephant to Mecca Cosmetica. While some products from each range are great others do not justify the price ($100 for a serum seems very steep for me - especially for non-professional use skincare). I myself tried all different brands both in Mecca and in online stores - and I discovered that quality does not always correlate with price. My goal for Youxskin is to offer affordable skincare products that have had all around positive reviews and target your specific skin need. I'm planning to undertake a scientific approach to recommend the skincare product that are right for you.

K-Beauty Products

The global fascination with Korean skincare, affectionately known as K-beauty, has inspired me to explore Korean beauty brands. I went to Korea last month and of course have been overwhelmed with the choice of different products. While K-beauty embodies a commitment to healthy, glowing skin, the path to luminous results requires an exacting curation of brands and products. At Youxskin, I've undertaken this mission, rigorously assessing and choosing brands that prioritise clean ingredients, ethical practices, cruelty-free testing and most importantly - results. There are some brands like Manyo, Skin1004, and Medheal are absolutely fantastic while I remain not a big fan of Innis Free and IsntFree.

My Eczema Journey with French Beauty Products with Bioderma

I have suffered from eczema my whole life. I've tried gazzilions of moisturisers, home remedies, natural/herbal creams. And the only moisturiser that helped relieve the itching for 24 hours without blocking my skin (you know that film that some moisturisers have that sit on top of your skin) was Bioderma (I know you will say CeraVe but believe me Bioderma is better). I have to admit that not all products from Atoderm range are great. For instance, Bioderma Atoderm Balm is too thick and oily for my liking. But what I loved about Bioderma was that this is a pharmaceuticals brand developed with only the ingredients that the skin needs to balance its PH. The secret ingredient in that creme is called the Skin Protect Complex™ containing vitamin PP and a combination of two sugars that physically and biologically recreate a healthy skin barrier and helps maintain the skin's water reserves, thus making the skin comfortable again. I have used this moisturiser for about 15 years now and it has honestly changed my life. It's even safe for babies. I had customers previously messaging me about how much less red and itchy their babies' skin was. Of course moisturiser alone does not cure eczema - it is simply a maintenance procedure.

The Power of Nutrition: A Holistic Approach

Skincare isn't just about what you put on your skin; it's also about what you put into your body. Nutrition plays a significant role in the health of your skin, and it's an aspect of skincare that we're passionate about at Youxskin. I believe in a holistic approach that recognizes the connection between what you eat and the condition of your skin.

Our blog and expert advice are here to guide you through the relationship between nutrition and skincare. I'll share insights on foods that can help nourish your skin from the inside out and provide tips on maintaining a balanced diet that promotes healthy, radiant skin. Youxskin is not just a skincare store; it's a comprehensive resource for your skincare journey.
