Posted: 20/06/2021

It’s that time of the year again when your skin is probably feeling a little dry and flakey. And if you’re wondering why this happens every winter, it’s because the top layer of skin, known as the stratum corneum (and colloquially known as the horny layer of skin) has a tendency to be susceptible to the cold. So the good peeps over at Bulldog Skincare have come up with The Guy’s Guide to Horny Skin with Bulldog Skincare to help combat this annoying dryness.  But first, let’s ask a clinical dermatologist the best way to manage dry skin in the cooler months.   “The stratum corneum layer – or the horny skin layer – acts as an important barrier to the outside world. In winter, the skin often dries out more easily, so we should be more diligent with our application of moisturiser,” says Dr Deshan Sebaratnam, a dermatologist at The Skin Hospital at Westmead.  “My top horny skin tip is to keep it simple and be consistent. Use a moisturiser that you like, because that is the one that you’ll be consistent with! Stay away from unnecessary fragrances, and natural ingredients are a nice bonus.”   Now comes the handy guide to keep your horny skin in check…. Step 1: Scrub up nicely There are few things in this world more satisfying than the feeling of smooth skin. Cleanse first, then scrub away your winter blues and flakey skin. When you scrub up you make it easier for the rest of your skincare to penetrate deeper… Read More

Kiss stressed-out and blemished skin goodbye with hemp-infused skincare by Hey Bud

Updated: 19/06/2024

Say goodbye to blackheads, acne, oily and dry skin with Hey Bud’s hemp-infused skincare range which is packed with all the good stuff, including gamma-linolenic acid, the most effective natural ingredient to regulate your skin’s moisture. Hey Bud was born out of frustration from skincare products that didn’t deliver, prompting the three business partners and founders – Ollie, Fedele and Alex – to come up with a product that delivered positive results after countless experiments and research.  They found the magical properties of hemp were key to reducing inflammation and common problems which affect many of us such as blackheads and acne. Hemp, which is a strain of the Cannabis Sativa plant, has specific natural oils that are not produced by the body, but are fundamental in skin health, helping with aging skin and moderating oil production. For more information on the benefits of hemp and to explore high-quality hemp products, visit Spruce. Hey Bud’s popular Australian Hemp Clay Mask helps to detoxify the skin while drawing out impurities and oils. The mask also helps tighten skin, which is helpful for those with enlarged pores. The mask is packed with essential nutrients from the hemp seed oil, as well as other ingredients such as almond oil, matcha, avocado oil, goji, aloe vera and kaolin clay.  How to use the Australian Hemp Clay Mask: STEP 1: Clean Start with clean dry skin & apply with clean fingers. Avoid eyes (duh) & apply an even layer across your face. STEP 2: Let it soak – Let the natural… Read More

There’s nothing sexy about cracked heels and flaky, dried lips. But you needn’t break the bank in order to defeat dryness. An example of a reasonably priced skincare product that delivers results is Australian made and owned brand, DU’IT.  Born out of frustration from skincare products that didn’t deliver, husband and wife team, Pynith and Zina co-founded DU’IT.  Working with pharmacists and specialists, Zina & Pynith developed a skincare product that effectively nourished and replenished dry skin.

Posted: 04/06/2020

With all the handwashing and sanitising we’re doing these days, it’s no wonder your poor old hands are feeling somewhat dry, sore and damaged. While alcohol-based sanitisers are great for eliminating germs, it’s also stripping natural oils from your skin, so you need to make sure you restore all that moisture to prevent developing dermatitis or other pesky skin irritations.  Natural skincare brand, Herbs + Heart have just launched the ultimate hand care product to combat dry skin! Their After-Sanitiser Overnight Hand Mask (RRP $24) is an effective treatment for over-cleansed and under-nourished hands. It’s ten times richer than hand lotion and designed to use at night and work its magic while you sleep.   Simply apply the mask to your hands just before you go to bed, ensuring your skin is hydrated and ready to face further handwashing and sanitisation the following day.  For the ultimate deep hydration treatment, pop on Herbs + Heart’s Cotton Overnight Gloves (RRP $5) after massaging your hands with the creamy mask and allow your hands to repair whilst you snooze.  The After-Sanitiser Overnight Hand Mask is manufactured in Australia with locally sourced ingredients and is naturally formulated with mango butter and hemp seed oil. It also contains a powerful combination of vitamins A, C and E, as well as omega fatty acids 3, 6 and 9.  Take a look at the full range of products from Herbs + Heart here.
