Your skin contains a unique ecosystem of bacteria and viruses that impact its function. Keeping it balanced is essential for healthy, radiant skin.
At Revea, we measure over 40 parameters of skin health including your hydration levels, skin texture & tone, energy supply, and skin milieu to create your custom formulation.
Let’s begin with a breakdown of the skin health parameter: skin milieu. Not to be confused with skin milia, skin milieu isn’t a term widely used in the skincare space, but is essential to understand when exploring our skin’s microbiome.
What is Skin Milieu?
The skin milieu parameter measures your skin’s microenvironment. This encompasses your skin’s micro-vasculature system which provides essential oils, your immune defense system, and the skin’s microbiome.
Why is Your Skin Milieu Important?
Healthy skin milieu contributes to a strong, resilient skin barrier that’s better able to protect against external stressors. Maintaining your skin’s milieu can therefore help prevent common skin concerns including acne, sensitivity, inflammation, and dryness.
What Impacts Your Skin Milieu?
Hormonal fluctuations, environmental factors, changes in skin barrier health, sebum production, and harsh skincare products can all affect your skin milieu, leading to an imbalanced microbiome.
How to Improve Your Skin Milieu
To improve your skin milieu, it’s essential to reduce inflammation, soothe sensitivity, and use ingredients that promote a healthy skin microbiome.
Opt for gentle skincare products, avoid harsh ingredients that strip the skin’s natural barrier, and apply SPF daily to protect against UV damage. Also, remember to eat a balanced diet rich in antioxidants and stay hydrated to maintain optimal skin moisture levels.
