Skin is the largest organ in the body. The skin barrier performs an essential service in keeping us healthy and alive. While protecting us from outside threats, such as bacteria, it also has a far more important job -- keeping moisture inside our bodies. Water is vital to keep our organs running optimally, and the skin barrier supports this.
What is the Skin Barrier?
Picture a wall constructed from bricks and mortar. Layers of ‘brick’ corneocytes are encased in ‘mortar’, which is a layer of fat. As well as keeping pathogens out and moisture in, it also blocks UV light and performs a host of other activities.
How Can We Protect Our Skin Barrier to Support Optimal Health?
Most importantly, to support healthy skin, maintain a healthy diet with a variety of fruit, vegetables, and Omega 3 fats. It’s vital to drink lots of water, as skin cracking from dehydration can lead to infection. Additionally, caring for your skin externally is very important for skin barrier health. Supporting moisture and skin regeneration with an emollient can be extremely helpful.
The Most Effective Skincare Products Will...
- Not contain artificial fragrances, as they can cause irritation.
- Provide a barrier to block moisture from exiting the skin’s surface.
- Contain fats that imitate the natural makeup of the skin.
- Use natural skincare products that won’t cause further irritation to the skin.
