The long handle will help you reach all areas of your body. Follow these steps: Start at your feet and move up your body. Brush your skin using wide, circular, clockwise motions. Use light pressure in areas where your skin is thin and harder pressure on thicker skin, like the soles of your feet. Brush your arms after you have brushed your feet, legs, and mid-section.

14.01.2022 When do hormonal breakouts occur? On the Blog Now! Hormonal breakouts are incredibly frustrating and can occur throughout your life when your body experiences change. This can occur throughout your normal menstruation cycle, or during big events such as puberty, pregnancy, gender reassignment, perimenopause, menopause, and breastfeeding. TRIGGERS Puberty ... Menstruation / Ovulation Pregnancy Breastfeeding Gender re-assignment Perimenopause Menopause The upside? If you’re going through hormonal breakouts, rest assured, There is light at the end of the tunnel, it is a temporary stage you will pass through and there is relief to calm and balance your skin during these times. So here’s what I’ve learned, that will help you manage your hormonal breakouts. Why do hormone imbalance skin problems happen? Hormones are really just chemical messengers that act on specific body part and tissues, which include your skin. "Hormones known as androgens, for example, testosterone, increase sebum production and cause thickening of the skin. These can contribute to pore-blocking and can trigger breakouts, Dr Justine Kluk, a London-based consultant dermatologist told Refinery 29. It’s all about hormone balance. For example, many women notice they breakout a week before, or even a few days before their period starts. Dermatologist Dr Mahto says: "This is because female hormones are at their lowest, and male hormones (androgens) are higher at these points. What does a hormonal breakout look like? Hormonal breakouts can look different on different people, it’s more about where on your body it pops up, and timing.

11.01.2022 The Easiest Way to Choose The Right Skincare for Your Skin The most common question we get asked at Samson & Charlie is: I have (insert your skin type) skin, what is the best product for me? And that's a great question! All our products are made with specific skin issues in mind, so it's a clever idea to choose the ones that suit your unique skin. For example, Our Renewal Range, including the popular Famous 24K Glow Face Oil is made to hydrate from deep within the skin's laye...rs. Dehydration causes fine lines to become more visible leading to that tired look. You know the one. Renewal can help. With everything from niacinamide to pure 24 karat gold, your skin will look noticeably brighter and more hydrated after using Renewal. Take our Skin Quiz to discover which products are right for you. If you’re buying for someone else, take the quiz on their behalf. If it’s someone close to you, you’ll probably know all the answers! The Skin Quiz is on our homepage and available for everyone to discover which products to use on their skin. https://samsonandcharlie.com.au/

11.01.2022 Pregnancy-Safe Skincare Lockdown has led to an increase in pregnancy! So if you're expecting, you're probably also experiencing some pretty crazy skin changes. During pregnancy, you'll want to steer clear of certain ingredients like retinol. Instead, look for: - AHAs to help clear breakouts - Niacinamide for anti-inflammatory effects and fine lines... - Suncreen to prevent hyperpigmentation from sun damage Dermatologist Dr McDonald told GP: For me, sun protection is the number one skincare product 365 days of the year, and my other essentials during pregnancy and breastfeeding (and every other day) include anti-inflammatory vitamin B3 (niacinaminde), alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) to increase cell turnover, decrease congestion, and improve hydration, and a basic moisturizer to protect the face and body. Our Renewal Anti-aging B3 + Collagen Facial Toner is a powerful way to clean skin and add B3 to your pregnancy and breastfeeding routine. Combine with our Renewal routine, and your pregnancy skin will become more balanced and clear.

08.01.2022 5 Reasons Your Skin Needs Vitamin C Now Vitamin C is a powerhouse when it comes to anti-ageing skin results. Here are just a few of the incredible ways vitamin C leaves your skin looking fresh, rejuvenated and firm: 1. Vitamin C helps fade hyperpigmentation and age spots When topically applied, vitamin C has been found to slow the production of melanin. Overproduction of melanin is responsible for creating age spots.... 2. Vitamin C boosts collagen production We know collagen production slows as we age, and vitamin C is proven to boost collagen synthesis, directly fighting the signs of ageing. 3. Vitamin C calms inflammation and redness Calming irritated skin and evening out skin tone is another of Vitamin C’s superpowers. 4. Vitamin C protects against UV-induced damage Vitamin C has been proven to protect skin from the free radicals created by sun exposure. Careful though: This does not mean it acts as a barrier between your skin and the sun, you will still burn. Vitamin C is not a sunscreen. 5. Vitamin C helps your skin retain moisture In a stable form (THD Ascorbate) vitamin C stimulates the productions of glycosaminoglycan. These are compounds which naturally occur in our skin and bind onto, and retain water. Glycosaminoglycan levels decline with age, which can lead to drawn, dehydrated skin, so boosting their production is an anti-ageing win. Vitamin C is pretty impressive right? And now's the time to start using it. It's never too late! Discover our amazing Vibrant C Face Oil as a Christmas gift for you or maybe a stocking stuffer for a loved one?

The Hello Sunshine Brightening Booster Bundle delivers the gentle and effective form of Vitamin C and BHA without irritating your skin but amplifying your glow. Here is why these two ingredients are the bomb ... If you want brighter skin (and don't we all?), then 2 of the best active ingredients to try are vitamin C and acids VITAMIN C Blocks excess melanin formation to help gradually fade dark spots Repairs existing sun damage by encouraging cellular regeneration Protects against future photoaging by neutralizing free radicals AHA/BHA Exfoliates dulling dead skin cells to help skin reflect more light (instead of absorbing it) Fades existing discolourations by speeding up cell turnover Boosts absorption of topical products so other brightening agents (like vitamin C!) are more effective credit: @theskincareedit_

06.01.2022 Choosing Products for Breakouts: The difference between skin clearing and balancing products. If you're managing breakouts, you've probably tried so many products that promise to help. Usually, they'll work one of 2 ways: 1. Skin Clearing: Drying out your skin's natural oils 2. Skin Balancing: Helping restore the balance of your skin's natural oils... Skin 'clearing' products clear skin by excessively drying it out and essentially removing any of your skin's natural oils. Sure, you won't have breakouts, but your skin will feel dehydrated and more aged. These kinds of products are better for more extreme acne-prone skin. Here at Samson & Charlie, we don't like the idea of stripping your skin of its natural oils, so we offer a balancing range. Skin balancing products work by slowly restoring your skin’s balance of hydration and natural oils. Products like Blue Tansy contain natural antifungal properties to help clear bacteria from your skin, plus anti-inflammatory properties to calm angry spots. Face oils also work by helping restore the balance of your skin's oil. If you think putting oil on breakouts seems crazy, you're not alone. It's a common belief face oils cause breakouts, but they don't! Not when they're made from non-comedogenic oils (which contain small-cell, high-quality oils that don't clog pores) If you're struggling with breakouts, switching to a balancing range can make all the difference. Just choosing one balancing product paired with 'clearing' products often doesn't work as they don't' work together. Try a full balancing range and give it 6 weeks to work. What do expect when you use balancing products for breakouts: - After 7-14 days, you’ll notice the balancing face oils and moisturisers starts to absorb much better into your skin. - After 28 days, your skin’s hydration balance will have been restored, and your skin will be absorbing and loving your balancing products. It’s after that 28 day period that you start noticing your skin has a vibrant glow. Our Balancing Clarifying Essentials Set contains products made from clarifying formulas to clear and control breakouts. Plus, the gorgeous products in this set have anti-inflammatory ingredients ideal for sensitive skin. They're the ideal way to help clear and manage breakouts while being kind and gentle to your skin. Give them a try!
05.01.2022 BHAs & Why They're Amazing for Hormonal Breakouts BHA stands for beta-hydroxy acids commonly referring to salicylic acid white solid first isolated from the bark of willow trees. A top favourite of ours is bromelain enzyme found in the stems of pineapple is also a BHA. These acids are amazing for breakouts as they help slough off the dead skin cells so they don’t clog pores and cause excess sebum build-up. Bromelain is a personal favourite of ours as its gentle on the skin p...erfect for sensitive skin types. In a nutshell, BHAs are amazing because they: - Are chemical exfoliators that loosen dead skin cells so they’re easily sloughed away. - Work inside the pores to help regulate cell turnover and the shedding of dead skin cells (keratinization) - Penetrate deep down into your skin’s layers to create maximum change. - Effective treatment for Blackheads and whiteheads. - Ideal for sensitive skin types as oil-soluble nature does not cause irritation. We love BHAs as they work on a deep level, which enables them to clear trapped sebum in your pores to stop your pores clogging and breakouts forming. They also slow down oil secretion, which is handy during hormonal swings when your sebum levels can increase. Bromelain enzyme derived from pineapple is a super gentle and effective BHA that works wonders on hormonal breakouts. You’ll find it everywhere in this summer’s favourite skincare, including out 3 Step Oil-Free Skincare System. Our 3 Step Oil-Free System is powered by proven actives Niacinamide B3, B5 and Hyaluronic Acid which act to refine pores, even complexion and keep your skin hydrated. It's:- - Oil-Free - Fragrance & Essential Oil-Free - Recommended for Pregnant, Perimenopausal and Menopausal Warriors - Ideal in Humid and Hot Climates - Summer's coming!

04.01.2022 5 things to help you beat breakouts this Spring Breakouts can creep up on your skin with lifestyle changes and even changes in seasons! With the transition to spring, we've had a lot of people ask us at Samson & Charlie which products they can try to manage breakouts on their chin and jawline. As well as trying our Maskne Rescue Kit, here are a few tips that can help you manage breakouts: 1. Stick with your new routine for 4-6 weeks... When you start a skincare routine for breakout-prone skin, you'll need to stick with it for 4-6 weeks to let your skin get used to it. When you start a new routine, your skin will go through a detox phase, but this phase is important to let your skin clear. 2. Swap your face towel and pillowcase often 3. Clean your phone with antibacterial spray 4. Don't touch your face 5. Resist the urge to squeeze Squeezing your spots unleashes the bacteria inside them, and spreads it across your face. This leads to more spots and can cause scarring. If you're sick and tired of breakouts, it's time to try a new routine. Whether your breakouts are caused by hormonal or lifestyle changes, adopting a purifying, calming and antibacterial products can make a world of difference. The Maskne Rescue Kit is a great way to introduce skin balancing products into your routine, as well as gentle cleansers to manage spots and breakouts. It includes: Brightening Pineapple B3 + BHA Daily Cleanser 30ml Microfibre Cleansing Puff (single) Balancing Exfoliating Cleanser 70g The Gift Balancing Facial Oil 30ml Why two cleansers? We recommend you use the Brightening Cleanser daily to help clean skin of makeup, sunscreen and impurities, plus the BHAs help exfoliate at a micro level to stop dead skin cell buildup. The exfoliating cleanser can be used twice weekly to slough off dead skin cells to prevent them from clogging pores and causing breakouts. Give it a try and let us know how you find it!
