Do you struggle with dry, flaky, irritated skin? Whether it's seasonal or chronic, soothing creams for dry skin will repair the damage and restore its natural radiance.
Your skin acts as a protective barrier, and over time, the outer layers can become damaged - whether it's from environmental exposure, irritating cleansers, or skin conditions like psoriasis - it can eventually lose its ability to retain moisture and repair itself.
Your skin works hard to keep you protected. You'll want to return the favor. But it's important to realize that not all skincare products are created equal. What you might think is helpful could be hindering your skin's ability to heal. Many products contain chemicals, fragrance, and alcohol that can worsen dryness and hamper your skin's ability to regenerate.
If not properly treated, prolonged dryness can speed the aging process, or even result in scarring or permanent cellular damage. Not to worry though, we have a few suggestions - free of harmful additives - to get your dry skin woes under control.
Abbey St Clare offers naturally derived skincare products to soothe even the driest of skin. As founder and CEO, I have formulated each product with plant-based ingredients, vitamins, and herbs packed with potent healing properties to give you the best that Mother Nature has to offer. My botanical-based products are never tested on animals and any fragrance is a result of natural aromatic essential oils.
Selecting the right cleanser sets the stage for healthier skin, so opt for a gentle, non-drying, formula. Our Essential Earth Elements Cleanser contains a rich combination of revitalizing earth minerals and Canadian glacial clay for removal of dead cells. Tea extracts, shea butter, and aloe stimulate cellular renewal for a healthier complexion. The results are undeniable, which is why it's beloved by our customers, as evidenced in this review:
"Cleanser as a secret weapon. I was given a bottle of this cleanser and started using it every morning on my face and neck in the shower. After about three weeks I went to a party and two people came up to me and said my skin looked so good and asked what was I doing. The next week I was at a meeting and another person (a doctor) complimented me on my skin, thinking I had gone in for a procedure. I couldn't believe this. All from a cleanser. I think you are on to something here." EN, Virginia
