How is your skin coping with stress
With everything happening around us in the UAE, many of us are carrying more stress than usual. Even if we don’t always feel it emotionally, our skin often tells the story.
Have you noticed any of these recently?
😣Dull, tired-looking skin
😣 Unexpected breakouts
😣 Increased sensitivity or redness
😣Dryness and dehydration
😣 Looking more fatigued than usual
Stress triggers the release of cortisol, which can increase oil production, weaken the skin barrier, slow down repair processes, and contribute to inflammation. The result? Skin that doesn’t quite look or feel like itself.
Let’s check in…
💬 If your skin could “speak” today, what would it be saying?
Choose the closest match 👇
🔹 “I feel dull and tired”
🔹 “I’m breaking out or congested”
🔹 “I feel sensitive or easily irritated”
🔹 “I’m dry, tight, and dehydrated”
🔹 “I’m actually doing okay right now” 💙
If your skin is feeling overwhelmed, now is the perfect time to focus on calming and restoring it.
At Dermalogica, some of my favourite professional treatments during stressful periods are:
♥️ Pro Calm – helps soothe sensitivity, strengthen the skin barrier, and reduce visible redness.
♥️ Pro Bright – revitalises dull, uneven skin, helping to restore a healthy, radiant glow.
Sometimes the best self-care is taking an hour to reset—both your mind and your skin.
Stay safe, take care of yourselves, and remember that caring for your skin is also a way of caring for your wellbeing. 💙
