$39.00GIMME MORE: Cream Moisturizer for face and body
$39.00pH is often overlooked in skincare, and when it isn't, it's often done wrong! This is what their resident scientist, Rafal Pielak, set out to correct when his own wife and daughter were struggling with eczema.
Healthy skin depends on maintaining the perfect pH level. With a scale of 1-14, with lower numbers being more acidic and higher numbers being more alkaline, the perfect pH level for skin is 4.7—a bit more on the acidic side. But plenty of things can disrupt the pH level, weakening the skin barrier and allowing nasties like pathogenic microbes under the surface. People with eczema have an elevated pH level, which leaves their skin surface even more vulnerable to pathogens, causing irritation and flare-ups. Every time we take a shower, apply makeup, wash our hands or face—or even just walk outside—we’re knocking our skin’s pH off balance.
In a recent study, researchers took a look at 58 mainstream products that claim to protect the skin barrier. Instead, they found that most of those products were too high in pH and were more likely to negatively impact acid mantle and microbiota systems. That means that many common products actually can irritate your skin—despite the marketing promises.
The founders of Soteri Skin created GIMME MORE, and their proprietary pH/LOCK technology specifically for those with sensitive skin (including those with eczema). Each application sets and "locks in" the perfect pH balance for 12+ hours, to help skin functional optimally: non-itchy, moisturized, healthy, and glowing.
Got demanding skin that’s crying out GIMME MORE? Give it what it wants with a richer, creamier spin on the original light formula. Lock in your skin’s optimal pH, while soothing angry skin—for at least 12 full hours. Ahhhhh….
