Lipid Barrier Repair, Dryness, Inflammation - Join us in this week's podcast episode as we discuss the impact of summer heat on the skin, particularly focusing on issues such as dryness, irritation, and barrier disruption. We explain the importance of maintaining the skin's hydro lipid barrier, which acts as a protective layer against environmental aggressors. With summer coming to a close, we offer practical advice on how to care for the skin after these hot months, including the benefits of moisturizing soaks, the use of ceramide-rich products, and the importance of avoiding over-exfoliation. From the role of diet to end-of-summer chemical peels, we provide a comprehensive guide to maintaining a healthy skin barrier to rejuvenate and repair sun-damaged skin as we step into fall!
