All things Tropic by Hannah

Never underestimate the power of a good skin care routine, when we slow down and take time to care for our skin, we also calm our mind.

Just a few minutes morning and night, presents time to connect with ourselves, our senses, to create space and give ourselves some attention and nourishment.

Mindful skincare practices such as massaging, exfoliating, lymphatic drainage, applying a face mask and relaxing, even splashing our face with cold water can be grounding

The naturally derived scents and textures of Tropic products are therapeutic -focusing on and touching our skin provides us with the opportunity to be present & be in on the moment

For tips on my recommended products for the most mindful skincare practices, do get in touch.

As we are experiencing more sunshine - it’s a chance to allow some sun exposure on our skin to allow our body to manufacture Vitamin D.

Approximately 20 minutes of sunscreen free exposure should be adequate without burning or damaging our skin.
Thereafter cover up / apply sun screen.

Vitamin D is an immune modulator, deficiency in Vitamin D has been associated with an increase in auto immunity and susceptibility to infections.

Also being mindful of which sun protection you apply to your skin is important. Oxybenzone, is potent hormone disruptor is widely used in sun creams and lotions.

When choosing a sun screen , opt for 'Broad Spectrum' that offers protection from UVA & UVB rays. The Tropic Sun Care Range is non toxic, free of oxybenzone and all harmful ingredients …whilst being Protect Land & Sea Certified. Containing antioxidant & anti-pollution ingredients.

We also offer amazing tanning products for those who want to avoid the sun but like to be bronzed.

Boosting your intake of antioxidant rich foods can help support your skin post 'sun exposure'. Enjoy berries, green tea, oily fish, lots of fresh vegetables and fruits to help support & help protect your skin from free radical damage & oxidation produced by UV rays on our skin cells.

I’ll be 57 in a couple of weeks & whilst my skin has obviously aged, I’ve taken steps to use safe, natural products that are free from harsh/ toxic ingredients that damage the skin barrier & skin microbiome.

I’ve been consistent with my skincare routine & have consistently used Tropic.

It’s important to consider that oxidative stress is a major contributor to the ageing of our skin.

Free radicals accumulate on the skin causing damage to cells & create ‘senescent cells’ that cause further damage , including to our collagen producing cells.

So ALWAYS remember to cleanse in the evening to remove damaging free radicals .

Our gentle, oil based Smoothing Cleanser is the perfect product to do this!

Formulated to effectively remove make up, dirt & grime AND free radicals with ease… an award winning luxurious cleanser that hydrates, balances and detoxifies your skin, whilst providing a gorgeous daily skin ritual with uplifting scents and a creamy smooth texture that won’t damage your skin barrier or microbiome.

We have approximately 20 square feet of skin on our body & with it 1.5 trillion resident bacteria of which there are 1000 different species.

Our skin’s eco system has not evolved to contend with exposure to so many harmful and undesirable chemicals, such as harsh anti microbials & preservatives, parabens, perfumes/ parfum/fragrances, pthalates - all which impact our skin microbiome…. These harm the skin barrier & create dysfunction.

These ecological disruptions in the skin and damage to the skin barrier are associated with changes in the appearance of our skin, such as hyperpigmentation, EVEN ageing, wrinkles, eczema, acne, psoriasis & more.

There are thousands of studies that link dysfunction in the skin, unhealthy skin, as a risk factor for chronic disease.
