Here are the best ways to stop and reverse skin damage:
- Cleanse gently, never harshly
Use a mild cleanser that doesn’t strip oils and removes grime without damaging the skin barrier, which is ideal for preserving your skin’s natural defences. - Don’t skip sunscreen even if you are indoors
UV exposure contributes to nearly 80% of visible skin aging. Wear SPF daily, even when indoors or by windows. Boost your SPF protection with our Minerelle foundations, that contain a natural SPF. - Hydrate inside & out
Drink water throughout the day, and use moisturisers rich in humectants like glycerin and hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture. This is especially important in Winter when your skin is more prone to dryness. - Keep showers lukewarm & quick
Hot water and long showers can dry out skin and weaken capillaries so opt for shorter, warm showers to maintain your skin’s health in cooler months. - Prioritise sleep & stress relief
Rest is when your skin naturally repairs itself. Aim for 7–8 hours of quality sleep and use stress-reducing practices like meditation or gentle movement. - Boost with barrier-repairing ingredients
Incorporate skincare with Centella (Gotu Kola), Aloe Vera, Hyaluronic Acid, and natural oils. Minerelle’s Centella Serum, which includes Aloe Vera Juice, Glycerin, Gotu Kola Extract, Prickly Pear and Apricot Kernel Oils, and Hyaluronic Acid, helps restore collagen, reduce redness, and support healing for stronger, more resilient skin. - Apply protective, mineral-based makeup
Swap heavy foundations for breathable mineral makeup like Minerelle’s loose foundation, which offers lightweight coverage while shielding skin from urban pollutants and daily wear.
🍃 Reversing existing skin damage
The right ingredients can help undo past damage:
- Centella asiatica (Gotu Kola) – Strengthens fragile capillaries, stimulates collagen, and calms inflammation. Found in your Centella Serum. This is perfect for reducing scars and redness.
- Aloe vera & glycerin – Deeply moisturise and soothe dry, damaged skin without clogging pores.
- Hyaluronic acid – Plumps fine lines and boosts hydration, making skin look smoother and more youthful.
- Prickly pear & apricot kernel oils – Rich in fatty acids and antioxidants, these oils help nourish, repair and protect the skin barrier.
With consistent use of these ingredients, your skin can gradually rebuild elasticity, even out tone, and regain its natural glow.
