Hormonal Skin Survival Kit
What is does:
Skin changes from one decade of life to the next. But the biggest changes occur starting in your mid 40’s and accelerate into your 50’s. Hormonal changes - women experience perimenopause and menopause, and men experience andropause - causes skin regeneration and repair to slow down, while the aging process accelerates - leading to skin thinning, wrinkles, sagging and dryness. Adding insult to injury, the skin barrier gets compromised, and skin becomes drier and often more irritated.
Mature skin isn't just about age - it's about how our skin evolves over time. As we grow older, our skin's needs change:
- Collagen production slows down, leading to less firmness
- Cell turnover decreases, resulting in a duller complexion
- Oil glands become less active, causing dryness
And with the right approach, you can address these changes and help our skin look its absolute best.
Skincare doesn't need to be complicated. Our philosophy for mature skin care is simple: use fewer, but more effective products. This approach not only simplifies your routine but also minimizes the risk of irritation - a key consideration for mature skin, as dermatologists often recommend gentle, effective products for aging skin.
We believe that in order to achieve clear, healthy and happy skin, a simple, less-is-better practice using irritant-free products needs to be followed to break the cycle of overstimulation, and reset skin's natural balance and regeneration system. So we don’t solve an oily skin problem with harsh cleaners, nor do we solve dry skin problems with heavy creams.
We don't believe aggressive ingredients have a place in your skincare routine, and a healing philosophy is better than an attack philosophy. Our products are formulated to help heal and protect your skin from environmental stressors, support the skin's microbiome, and provide essential nutrients that the skin might not be getting from your environment or diet.
What our customers are saying.
"Great For Sensitive Skin"
"I am a lover of natural and organic makeup and skincare, and about two years ago, starting investing heavily into it... I spent hundreds on the high end organic stuff! But after about a year of daily use, I started to develop puffiness and eczema around my eyes. I had no idea what is was from, considering I was using all natural products that were made for specifically for sensitive skin, I never considered it was my skincare. I tried topical steroids and everything but it wouldn't budge. Finally realized that my skin developed a sensitivity to repeated exposure to essential oils and other natural/organic ingredients. Although natural is the way to go, it can still be irritating to your skin if you're not careful. It was SO hard to find a skincare line that was natural + free of essential oils and other irritants. So many lines and products claimed to be calming, soothing, skin friendly, but were full of lavender, lemon, and other things that were irritating my skin right from the beginning, but took time to develop into a full on eczema. Schaf is the only line I have found that works! Switched out all of my expensive products for their line and my eczema is gone. It comes back if I use anything else that contains irritants, even if they are natural or 'skin soothing!'. And the products work GREAT. I can't recommend enough. If you are someone who is having skin issues and aren't sure why/how, I really recommend this line and wish you the best of luck on your journey! "
