The Skin Science Series

A free 6-week email course from a naturopath.

One email a week. No sales pitch.

Most skin concerns aren't mysterious. They make sense once you understand how skin actually works - what it's made of, what it needs and what undermines it.

When you understand how your skin works and what helps it to thrive, then you can make good choices for yourself, whether those include our products or not.

So I've written the Skin Science Series: six emails, one a week, explaining your skin the way I'd explain it to a client sitting across from me in clinic.

What You'll Learn 

Week 1 - Your Skin Barrier. Why this "brick wall" is the foundation everything else depends on, and what wears it down (including a few ingredients you might not expect).

Week 2 - Your Skin Microbiome. The living community of microorganisms on your skin, why it matters and what disrupts it.

Week 3 - Your Skin's pH. The acid mantle most people have never heard of, and why your cleanser's pH matters more than its marketing.

Week 4 - Light and Your Skin. Beyond "wear sunscreen": the more nuanced relationship between your skin and different kinds of light.

Week 5 - Skin Lipids. The oils your skin makes, what influences them (hello, hormones and diet) and why oil-free isn't always the answer.

Week 6 - Ageing Skin. What actually changes over time, what's realistically within reach and why "anti-ageing" is the wrong way to think about it.

Who It's For Anyone who'd like to understand their skin rather than just follow a routine. If you've ever read an ingredient list and wondered what any of it actually does, this is for you.

Your first email arrives within a day of signing up. Unsubscribe any time with one click.
