Beauty Bible Weekend Steal: Dr.Organic Skin Calm range

We’ve talked a little bit lately about the power of oats to soothe skin – they are being harnessed more widely for their impressive power, backed up by research, to multi-task as soothers for inflamed, itchy, dry skin. Strengthening the skin’s all-important barrier, they also hydrate and generally support a healthier skin microbiome. (Certain phenolic compounds in oats also act as antioxidants, reducing oxidative stress in skin cells.)

And this multi-tasking, skin-saving power has now been harnessed by the naturals brand Dr.Organic for an entire range – the Skin Calm collection. When we tried it, skin felt soothed from the get-go, via a quartet of products.

Because all good skincare really starts with cleanser (even when that doesn’t seem the sexy bit), we’ll kick off with Dr.Organic Skin Calm Probiotic Cream Cleanser, which 92% of testers reported left their skin soothed and nourished. It’s gentle yet effective, a creamy formula that delivers a non-stripping cleanse. Remove with a damp cloth, is their advice, and it can be used morning and night.

You will also find a very reasonably-priced serum in this range – and we always shout ‘hallelujah’ when we come across one of those. With great slip, the lightweight Dr.Organic Skin Calm Probiotic Protection Serum is formulated to rebalance the skin’s microbiome, while strengthening the skin’s natural barrier.

Dr.Organic Skin Calm Probiotic Concentrated Cream is your rich treatment product, antioxidant-rich, anti-imflammatory, and instantly soothing to sensitive skin with its pre- and probiotic complex, green tea and chamomile extract. (You can almost hear skin relaxing, when you slather this on.)

But what we also very much like is the Dr.Organic Skin Calm Probiotic Recovery Mask, not least because those with sensitive skins often tend to steer clear of ‘treatments’ – and don’t we all love a face mask…? This is perfect as a weekly treatment, they recommend, to support the skin’s barrier but also to revitalise a dull complexion. A real treat, in our book.

Impressive products that aren’t maybe cheap-as-chips cheap – but are extremely reasonable for this quality, soothing skin while not stressing out your financial advisor.
