Stress is an unavoidable part of modern life - especially during exam season. If your skin is showing the effects, here are my must-have Heaven products to help to ease the impact of stress.
Stress can cause breakouts by increasing the production of sebum, the oil that clogs pores and leads to spots. Stress can also trigger inflammation, which can worsen existing acne around the chin, jawline, and forehead.
Willowbee® Mask & Cleanse: Salicylic acid has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties so is an effective way to tackle breakouts. You'll find it in my Willowbee® Mask & Cleanse.
Stress can make your complexion more sensitive and reactive to irritants, allergens and other environmental factors. This can lead to redness, itching and eczema. Additionally, stress can weaken the skin's barrier function, making it more vulnerable to dehydration.
Hydro Cleansing Milk: This gentle cleanser removes dirt, makeup and impurities from the skin without stripping its natural oils. It blend of natural ingredients soothe and calm, leaving skin clean and refreshed.
Stress can cause dark circles under your eyes by increasing blood flow to the area. This can result in a bluish or purple discoloration that makes you look tired. It can also cause fluid retention and swelling, leading to puffiness. This can be especially noticeable in the morning, after a night of poor sleep.
Nettle Venom Eye Cream: My vegan eye cream eases puffiness and dark circles while relaxing fine lines and wrinkles.
Stress can slow down the skin's healing process, making it harder for wounds, cuts, and bruises to heal. Added to this, it can make existing skin conditions, such as psoriasis or rosacea, worse.
Silver Bee Venom Mask: This luxurious moisturiser nourishes and rejuvenates the skin. Its unique blend of ingredients help reduce inflammation and hydrate.
Stress can cause hair loss by triggering an autoimmune response that attacks hair follicles. This can lead to thinning, lacklustre locks and bald patches.
Collagen Range: Collagen provides strength, structure and elasticity to hair fibres. It replenishes these levels and support healthy hair growth. You can shop my complete range of collagen products here.
