Skin Health Solutions – DNA Guided Skincare

02 Jun Skin Health Solutions – DNA Guided Skincare

Did you know that your skin is the largest organ of the body?

Your skin protects all your vital organs from external factors, such as bacteria, chemicals, and temperature.

Yet, we don’t always treat it as that important.

Be honest, do you wear sunscreen every day? Do you reapply sunscreen throughout the day? What about moisturiser? Did you remember your décolletage? Do you remember to wash everything off? Twice a day?

Honestly, me neither. We can certainly do better.

But what if, brace yourself, doing a 10-step skin care regimen isn’t the only way to have good skin?

What if we had a non-invasive DNA test that provides these answers?

Why Skin Health Matters

In recent years, there has been a growing demand for self-care that is tailored to individual needs and preferences. But these solutions address outward skin concerns.

What about the inside?

Think about it this way: your skin reflects your internal health. Your internal health is closely linked to your diet, lifestyle, environment, and genetics. These affect your skin and cause some common skin concerns, including dryness, acne, oiliness, premature ageing, and redness.

Understanding the Root Causes of Skin Issues

Hormone fluctuations are often the cause of bad skin health. Adult acne is caused by an increase in the amount of oil your skin produces, which typically occurs during pregnancy, menopause, or when undergoing testosterone therapy. Additionally, male hormones, present in everyone, tend to increase as we get older, which also causes acne.

Stress is a key trigger of poor skin health too. Stress raises your cortisol levels, which causes inflammation of the skin and a flare-up of acne.

Indulging in excessive sugar, desserts, and sodas can also cause acne flare-ups. Eating foods, specifically fruits and vegetables, that are high in vitamin C and beta-carotene contains anti-inflammatory properties, which help reduce acne.

Naturally, we turn to skin care to solve our problems. Who doesn’t love a good serum? But, all these factors have something in common—your DNA.

How Your DNA Influences Your Skin

DNA is the blueprint of the body. An instruction manual that keeps your body functioning.

Your DNA can tell you how well your body absorbs nutrients, if you’re a morning person or a night owl, your gut health, which type of exercise is best for you, and so much more. Understanding your genetics and which variants you have can help you refine your lifestyle, diet, and ultimately your skin health glow. Our DNA reports provide in-depth, personalised insights into each of these.

Additionally, you will receive recommended supplements for areas where your body may need a little extra help. For example, we are often deficient in Vitamin D, especially if one lives somewhere such as the UK, where the weather is usually rather gloomy. As an added bonus, our hormone reports can inform you on how balanced your hormones are, your bone density, the body’s ability to clot blood, cholesterol, and healthy ageing.

Skin Health Solutions

Even though your body has abilities unique to you, there are still some good habits that are standard for everyone to achieve that skin health glow. This includes:

• Drinking enough water throughout the day
• Wearing sunscreen and reapplying throughout the day (yes, even if it’s cloudy)
• Maintain a well-balanced diet
• Get sufficient sleep (which our DNA report includes)

And along with the insights you gain from your reports, you are well on your way to a skin health solution.

We do recommend that if you suffer from severe acne or unexplained skin issues, you visit your local GP or a dermatologist. Fortunately, the DNA results you receive can be used in conjunction with your skin treatments!
