Having a skin issue like acne can affect not just your skin, but also your mental health. The condition can be tricky to deal with and can leave sufferers feeling frustrated, isolated and depressed. It’s important to remember that you aren’t alone in your struggle with acne, and some of the most beautiful women in the world also struggle with their skin. Here’s a list of five celebrities who also suffer from acne and other skin issues:

Victoria Beckham

To look at Mrs Beckham’s skin these days, you wouldn’t know she struggled with acne for so long, but she dealt with bad skin way into her twenties. To keep her skin in tip-top shape, she swears by a strict regime of exfoliation and moisturisation, and insists that products containing glycolic acid are what have made all the difference to her face.

Cameron Diaz

It’s hard to believe that someone as goddess-like as Cam has ANY problems, but she’s human like the rest of us and her acne was an issue even in her thirties. She credits clean eating with helping her skin to get better “I hadn’t needed to be angry at my skin or feel bad about myself. I had just needed to LISTEN TO MY BODY. Acne was my body’s alarm system, it was a way of telling me [to stop eating fast food]”

Eva Longoria

Eva Longoria, star of Desperate Housewives, says that her hectic lifestyle is partly responsible for her issues with breakouts. “Because I fly so much, hydration is important. When you have good skin, everything else kind of falls into place. Also, I use blush with shimmer in it. That way, your skin glows and people notice it.”

Beyonce

While it may come as a shock that Queen Bey has anything even remotely close to being a flaw, the ex-Destiny’s Child singer deals with pimples, uneven skin and large pores. The vasy majority of images that we see of Beyonce have been retouched in some way, giving us slightly unrealistic expectations of what celebrity skin is really like.

Britney Spears

Britney is perhaps one of the most well-known famous acne sufferers, not least of all because the girl is NOT afraid to step outside with a bare face. Whether it’s a conscious effort to give her skin a break from make-up with she’s having a flare up or just a normal woman having a “can’t be bothered” day, we applaud Britney for putting her best face forward, no matter what.

Jan Marini Bioglycolic Facial Cleanser

We know that there are many face washes out there which can make it tricky when it comes to knowing which one is right for you.

Today we are looking at our favourites and you will find something that hits the spot.

If you have dry or sensitive skin, find the right products can be hard, but we think you might find what you are looking for with the Elemis Sensitive Cleansing Wash. Perfect for even the trickiest of skins, the soothing extracts of Thyme, German Chamomile and Lady’s Mantle are key to this calming, soothing cleanser. The rich cleansing foam conditions and moisturises and the added antibacterial ingredients means this wash is effective but free of harshness. Used morning and night on a regular basis, irritation and itching will ease and your face will feel soft and fresh.

Jan Marini is a new range on the site and we love their Bioglycolic Facial Cleanser. As a soap-free cleanser, this product helps make the skin softer and smoother and rinses without the need for a post-cleansing toner. Sorbitol, a natural humectant that comes from berries, has been added to hydrate the skin and Glycolic Acid helps with texture. We have been impressed with the results and think you might be too.

For something special, why not try the Elemis Smart Cleanse Micellar Water? This brilliant product uses micelles, Apple Amino Acid, Rosehip Seed Oil and Indian Soapnut to take make-up, dirt and other impurities away from the skin gently. Infused with organic English Rose water and Chamomile, skin is gently cleansed, to reveal a clear, radiant complexion.

You really cannot go wrong with the iconic Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel. Many of our regular customers choose this soap-free, foaming gel because it cleans their skin and makes it look great but doesn’t unbalance the moisture levels. Suitable for everyone to use, Calming Balm Mint and Lavender extracts soothe skin and natural Quillaja Saponaria foams away make up, dead cells and toxins. The results are simple – clean, happy faces.

If you are up for trying a mouse, we suggest the Decleor Hydra-Radiance Cleansing Mousse. Packed with effective caring ingredients, this 3-in-1 cleanser is at the heart of a healthy, glowing complexion. The rich, concentrated cream turns in a mousse when added to water and deep cleans your skin leaving it soft and velvety. Grape Juice, Papaya Extract and Japanese White Mulberry exfoliates dull, dead skin cells away and nourishing Neroli Essential Oil and Hyaluronic Acid are the added extras that make this product such a success.

For skin that is young and prone to acne and breakouts, the Dermalogica Foaming Wash is a saving grace as it cleans skin but doesn’t dry or take away natural oils. Orange Peel and Tea Tree energise and refresh inflamed skin while Salicylic Acid deals with dead cells and clears trapped oil. Packed with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and sebum-regulating ingredients, spots are kept at bay and skin is left happy, as are customers.

If you would like more details about these or any products, get in touch and we would love to help.

The Beauty of a Good Education

Royalty-free image

It’s the end of August which means that Autumn is on it’s way, school will be restarting again soon and the lazy summer days will be replaced with routine and structure, especially for those in education. Whether you’re starting a new school, college or university, you’ll want to be doing so with the best skin possible, so we’re going to show you five products which can help:

Dermalogica UltraCalming Redness Relief Primer SPF20

Sensitised skin can be difficult to control, and many products will add to the problem. This primer from Dermalogica is designed to minimise redness, mattify the skin by controlling sebum production and provide a good base on which to put make-up, giving you the confidence of knowing that your foundation will stay in place all day. It contains a green tint which counteracts redness and an SPF which protects the skin from the sun’s harmful rays.

Elemis Tea Tree S.O.S. Spray

This S.O.S. Spray from Elemis might not be a lifesaver, as such, but it’s definitely a SKIN saver – the cooling teat tree will help to soothe over-sensitised skin while the anti-bacterial properties will kill spot-causing bacteria, helping you to cut the cause of breakouts before they even occur. It can be sprayed directly onto the face to help speed up the healing process if you’ve already had a breakout, and can even be used on other cuts and abrasions for an antibacterial and antiviral barrier.

Dermalogica Breakout Control

If your skin is prone to acne or hormonal breakouts, it can be tricky to know when breakouts are going to happen and treat them before the fact. This lotion from Dermalogica is a fast-but-gentle formulation which is designed to target the bacteria which causes breakouts to halt them in their tracks, and contains natural sponges to absorb sebum which can make the skin oily. It contains soothing ingredients which help to calm the skin and reduce sebum production and is gentle enough to be used daily, under your normal moisturiser.

Elemis White Brightening Even Tone Cleanser

Keeping your skin super clean is the first step to staying breakout-free but that can be tricky as some cleansers irritate the skin and make spots worse. This cleanser from Elemis has been designed for daily use and gently removes impurities, reduces the appearance of excess oil and reveals a super-clean and mattified complexion. Skin is left smoother, brighter and naturally illuminated, as well as being clean and clear.

Dermalogica All Over Toner

This toner is the perfect product for keeping in your school bag as it provides a much-needed spritz of cooling toner, right when your skin needs it the most. It calms redness, kills spot-causing bacteria and helps to keep spot and acne prone skin under control. It’s perfect for teenage skin and can either be sprayed directly onto the face, or wiped onto problematic area with a cotton pad.
