Supercharge your Skincare with Vit C
Want to brighten your skin? Look no further! Gone are the days when Vitamin C was a just remedy for the common cold. Meet Vit C serum – this hero ingredient that is a MUST for every skincare regime. This skincare superstar helps to lighten, brighten and protect your skin.Ready to find out how to get your glow back?! There is loads of research to show how Vit C (also known as L-ascorbic acid) works for preserving younger skin, firming mature skin, and is effective for lightening and brightening. This superstar ingredient can be found in our Pomegranate Brightening Serum! So, what are the benefits Vitamin C? Lightens pigmentation. Hyper-pigmentation is caused by an increase in melanin. Melanin is the natural pigment that gives our skin, hair and eyes their colour. A number of factors can trigger an increase in melanin production, but the main causes are sun exposure, hormonal influences, age and skin injuries or inflammation. An unfortunate part of ageing are the darker patches that we begin to see on our faces (hyper pigmentation). This pigmentation may be a result of too much time sun when we were younger (remember always wear your hat and SPF!), or could be hormonal pigmentation caused by the pill or pregnancy (melasma), even the red spots left over after breakouts is a type of pigmentation (post inflammatory hyper pigmentation). Vitamin C has the incredible ability to help lighten existing pigmentation and hyper pigmentation (acne scars). Vit C can speak to the cells and prevent these patches from becoming darker. Unlike harsh chemical skin bleaching ingredients there are no adverse effects, this natural alternative can directly lighten the darker patches. Vit C is not like a retinol treatment either – It won’t cause your skin to dry out or peel, or leave it photo sensitive (sensitivity caused by UV light ), your skin barrier will not be compromised in anyway. Gentle yet super effective! Anti-ageing. We all know we need to take care of our skin, it is the largest organ in our body, but aside from protecting the barrier with a sunscreen there is more we can do! Anti-oxidants are a great way to protect our skin from free radical damages. A free radical is damage from environmental factors like UV exposure and pollution. Cigarette smoke can also cause more free radicals in your body leading it to hold onto the collagen and weaken elastin. Adding a powerful antioxidant like Vit C to your skincare routine will strengthen the skin cells and protect collagen against free radical damage. This helps with repairing fine lines and wrinkles, improving overall skin texture. Vit C is so important in any skincare regime from young to mature. Protection. Vitamin C is not only jam packed with anti-oxidants, it can actually help protect our skin from the sun! It isn’t a sunscreen and won’t defend against UVA-UVB rays, but the amount of anti-oxidants it provides to your skin can actually protect the cells against the UV light that damages the skin, caused by free radicals. This is why it’s always recommended to use your Vitamin C during the day under your sunscreen for extra protection! So to wrap it all up, feed your skin with Vitamin C! This simple skincare ingredient is really one of the best ways to keep ageing at bay, have your skin glowing and protect from the environmental damage.
Let's Talk Probiotics!
Pre-, pro- and post-, what are they and how can they be used in skincare? Let's dive into their functions and how they can help repair an imbalanced skin barrier. What is the skin microbiome? The skin microbiome refers to the diverse collection of microorganisms that live on the surface of the skin, including bacteria, fungi, viruses and mites. These microorganisms play an essential role in the skin's health, regulating the skin's pH, protecting the skin from harmful pathogens and regulating the skin's immune response. What are the signs of a microbiome imbalance? Some of the signs of an imbalance include: Acne Dryness & flaking Redness & irritation Increased sensitivity Excessive oil production Persistent skin conditions (Eczema, Perioral Dermatitis, Psoriasis) Slow healing What are pre, post & probiotics? Prebiotics Essentially food for the skin, they can help promote the growth of beneficial bacteria while discouraging the growth of harmful ones. Probiotics These are microorganisms and when applied topically they can help to strengthen the skin's natural defences, support barrier function and reduce inflammation. Postbiotics What you get when Probiotics 'eat' Prebiotics - the fermented byproduct provides similar benefits to Probiotics without the need for live microorganisms. This is the most common of the '-biotics' found in skincare. Where can I find them in the esmi range? Probiotic Skin Mylcks Our Probiotic Skin Mylcks contain Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lysate, which is a bacteria that has been optimised and extracted from the Probiotic function and encapsulated as a Probiotic Lysate. Whilst a Lysate is not live, it was once a viable Probiotic cell, but is now a collection of cell components fragmented into a concentrated dose of Probiotic function. It is also a safer, more stable way to include Probiotic function in formulations to ensure efficacy. Lysates probiotic bacteria possess a wide range of properties: they can be anti- inflammatory, anti-bacterial, antioxidant, stimulate wound healing and stabilising. We are the first skincare company using a 100% Australian-made Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lysate produced in Australia’s first and only cGMP/TGA certified facility for probiotic API manufacturing! This particular Probiotic has been carefully selected and researched for its incredible benefits for the skin. Thirsty Skin Plumping Sheet Mask Our Thirsty Skin Plumping Mask contains Pineapple and Papaya ferment (Lactobacillus/Ananas Sativa Ferment Filtrate, Lactobacillus/Papaya Carica Ferment Filtrate) which is rich in postbiotics from the fermentation process. Both fruits are enriched with enzymes that help to exfoliate away dead skin as well as brighten the skin! Haircare Our haircare range has been optimised with a trademarked esmi Biome blend that is tailored to your individual hair concerns. See the table below to read about our esmi Biome blends for more information.
The Low-Down on Cleansing
Cleansing your skin is the essential process of removing dirt, oil, makeup, and impurities from the surface of your skin to maintain its health and appearance. The goal is to achieve a clean, refreshed complexion that promotes overall skin health and vitality. Why does cleansing matter so much? It seems like such a simple step, but cleansing is up there as one of the most important steps of your skincare routine (next to applying your SPF!). Ensuring you are using a gentle cleanser that doesn't strip the skin's natural oils or disrupt the barrier, allows for your skin to start off with a great base for other skincare goodies to absorb properly into the skin. Would you add ingredients to the pot if it was covered in cling wrap? NO. The skin works hard to keep the baddies out and the goodies in, being the largest organ of our immunity system. During the day our skin is exposed to dirt, debris and other environmental pollutants that can trigger inflammation and cause oxidative stress on the surface of the skin. This can result in concerns of pigmentation, dullness, histamine reactions such as rashes/itchiness and breakouts. Cleansing (or double cleansing, if you have the time) removes these impurities from the surface of the skin and also works to melt away residue of cosmetics, which can contain waxes and oils that can create a film on the skin. This daily routine helps to prevent clogged pores, breakouts, and other skin issues, while also preparing your skin to better absorb other skincare products like moisturizers and serums. Should I be using gel, cream, oil, foaming or a balm cleanser? End of the day, as long as the skin is feeling happy and soft you can continue with whichever type of cleanser you are loving the feel of. However anything really sudsy or containing AHA/BHAs will slightly remove oil from the surface of the skin - so if you're a little more on the dry side we suggest staying with a more creamy formulation. Our range of Uncomplicated Cleansers are perfect for all skin types. The gentle cream formula balances skin and won’t leave it dry or tight, just clean, calm, and supple. The formulation focuses on cleansing while supporting skin hydration and maintaining a healthy oil/moisture balance. It gently removes all traces of makeup, dirt, excess oil, and other impurities, while calming and protecting skin (win, win!). Top tips for cleansing Here are our top tips for cleansing your face to squeaky clean status. Anything that touches your face should be clean Wash your face using lukewarm water and your favourite cleanser - Anything warmer than lukewarm will dry you up, sis! Double cleanse when wearing makeup Don't forget your neck and décolletage Be gentle when drying your face Follow with hydration Did you know?! A typical cosmetic product will contain anything from 15–50 ingredients. Our Uncomplicated Cleanser has just twelve. It is simple and so effective! So next time you are cleansing your face, take a moment to appreciate the hard work your skin does keeping you pathogen free. All The Uncomplicated Cleansers have the same great base of ingredients, so if your skin loves the OG, it may be worth trying to try our other cleansers that target a specific skin concern. For example: The Uncomplicated Cleanser plus Anti-Redness contains Tasmanian Mountain Pepper that helps reduce redness and puffiness associated with inflammation, also a powerful antioxidant to help strengthen and protect skin cells.
How to Use Glow Drops
Glow drops are the perfect way to add some extra radiance to your appearance! Typically containing illuminating pigments, light-reflecting particles, or shimmering ingredients, glow drops create a subtle glow when applied to your skin. Use it on your arms, legs, décolletage or even your face to enhance your natural complexion and give your skin a healthy, radiant glow. What are glow drops? Thanks to their blend of hydrating ingredients and light-reflecting properties, glow drops work wonders in the quest for radiant skin. Many glow drops contain fine particles that catch and scatter light, lending a subtle yet noticeable luminosity to the skin. What's truly remarkable about glow drops is their versatility—they're not just for the face!

The natural team of vitamin A and E work together to brighten and improve your skin tone, while leaving a subtle shimmer. Using glow drops: A step-by-step guide Here's a few tips for you to help you glow to your fullest potential. 🌟 Preparing your skin Before applying body glow oil, it's essential your skin is clean and exfoliated. This ensures that the product can effectively work its magic. To optimise the benefits of glow drops on the face and neck, consider using a toner beforehand. esmi's Gentle Refine Cleansing Toner helps rebalance the skin's pH levels and remove any residual impurities, creating a smooth canvas for subsequent skincare products. By prepping your skin with a cleanser and toner, you can enhance the absorption of glow drops, allowing them to impart their luminous goodness effectively. In terms of prepping the rest of the body, we recommend using an exfoliating mitt, such as our Hemp Mitt. It helps to increase circulation and provides a gentle exfoliation for smooth soft skin, creating the perfect base for some serious shine! 🌟 Using the right amount Start with just a small amount of glow body oil, as even a little can produce remarkable results! If you find you need more luminosity, it's easy to add a couple of more drops until you achieve your desired glow. 🌟 Applying the drops Apply alone or over a moisturiser for a luxurious glow.

This gentle technique helps to activate the ingredients and ensures they seamlessly meld into your skin.

Pairing seamlessly with a range of other products in the line, it offers a synergistic approach to skincare that elevates your glow to new heights!

Bakuchiol: A Retinol Alternative
For decades, retinol has reigned supreme as the go-to anti-aging ingredient, and rightfully so. Its remarkable ability to smooth wrinkles and boost collagen production has made it a skincare staple. However, not everyone can benefit from retinol in the long run, as its potency can be too much for sensitive skin, cause unwanted side effects and is not recommended for anyone pregnant or breastfeeding. Enter esmi's Afterglow Rejuvenating Bakuchiol — a game-changing alternative to retinol for those seeking youthful skin, minus the irritation. In this blog post, we'll explore why and how bakuchiol, a natural and gentle ingredient, is taking over the world of anti-aging skincare. What does bakuchiol do for the skin? Bakuchiol, a botanical extract derived from the seeds of the Psoralea corylifolia plant, has swiftly risen as a natural alternative to retinol. Originating in traditional Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, bakuchiol offers remarkable benefits in serum form. This gentle yet potent ingredient aids in stimulating collagen production, reducing the appearance of fine lines and improving skin texture. Bakuchiol's anti-inflammatory properties also make it ideal for sensitive skin, without the typical irritation associated with retinol. In essence, bakuchiol is a plant-based marvel, offering all the advantages of retinol with added soothing properties, making it a game-changer for those seeking effective, gentle skincare solutions. Bakuchiol vs Retinol: Why is bakuchiol a retinol alternative? Bakuchiol, often referred to as "nature's retinol," offers comparable benefits to its chemical counterpart. This botanical extract functions by targeting the same key mechanisms as retinol, such as collagen production and skin renewal. It helps increase cell turnover, smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles, and improving skin texture. The beauty of bakuchiol lies in its gentleness. Unlike retinol, which can sometimes cause redness, peeling, and sensitivity, bakuchiol is kind to even the most delicate skin types, making it an ideal choice for those who cannot tolerate retinol's potential side effects. What's more, bakuchiol also boasts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, helping to soothe and protect the skin, reducing the risk of irritation. This makes it a fantastic option for long-term use, without the concerns associated with prolonged retinol use. While retinol remains a fantastic choice for many, bakuchiol's unique blend of effectiveness and gentleness makes it an excellent alternative for those seeking retinol-like benefits without the downsides. esmi's commitment to offering both options underscores the importance of catering to individual skin needs. How to apply bakuchiol After cleansing and applying your favourite water based serums follow with 2-3 drops of bakuchiol. For extra nourishment, follow with your favourite moisturiser or oil. Can be used morning and night. Be sure to follow your morning application with SPF protection. Is bakuchiol pregnancy safe? Bakuchiol is considered pregnancy-safe because it lacks the potential risks associated with retinol, making it a suitable alternative for expectant mothers. This natural ingredient does not carry the same concerns of birth defects or adverse effects during pregnancy, offering a gentle and effective option for skincare during this special time. esmi recommends the Afterglow Rejuvenating Serum esmi's Afterglow Rejuvenation Bakuchiol is your ticket to radiant, youthful skin without compromise. This serum harnesses the power of bakuchiol, offering all the benefits of retinol without the drawbacks. In addition to its remarkable anti-aging properties, Afterglow Rejuvenation Bakuchiol provides intense hydration, leaving your skin plump and dewy. But don't just take our word for it. Here's what some of our satisfied customers have to say: "After using Esmi's Bakuchiol, my skin feels smoother and more youthful. No more irritation!" - Sarah L. Unlock the wonders of bakuchiol with esmi's Afterglow Rejuvenation Bakuchiol – your path to ageless, radiant skin.

Real Results: Deborah
“I’m so happy and so confident in my skin!” We’re so excited to share Deborah’s skin story and the fantastic results she’s seen since using esmi Skin Minerals products. For as long as Deborah could remember, she had suffered from red, dry, and irritated skin. It was itchy, uncomfortable and really affecting her confidence. If that wasn’t enough, Deborah was experiencing perioral dermatitis; inflammation around the mouth causing red bumps. Products she had tried in the past seemed to be worsening the problem, causing flare ups in sensitivity and her perioral dermatitis. Deborah was on the hunt for products that would soothe her irritated skin, calm inflammation and keep her dermatitis away. Spoiler alert: that’s where we came in! “I was online one day and came across esmi. I reached out to one of the consultants who was absolutely beautiful and who led me on my skin journey.” Our skin expert listened to Deborah’s concerns, looked at photos of her skin and created an anti-redness skincare routine for her sensitive skin. “We slowly worked to where I am today.” The skincare routine Deborah now follows focuses on calming irritation, nourishing the skin and protecting the skin barrier. She starts with the Probiotic Skin Mylck Cleanser to remove the day’s dirt and grime. Deborah was hesitant to use a cleanser, as they are what used to cause the bulk of the irritation, but she was pleasantly surprised by this one. It is ultra gentle, and helps heal, protect and maintain the skin’s moisture balance. Next come Skin Treats. Deborah uses the Hyaluronic Hydrating Serum to keep her skin plump and hydrated, all while giving her a boost of radiance and protecting her skin. The Probiotic Skin Mylck acts as her calming and restorative moisturising lotion. The good bacteria protect and heal the skin barrier and soothe inflamed, damaged skin. She follows this up with the Acai Skin Balancing Face Oil, which reduces redness thanks to the magic of acai oil. Deborah also keeps the Skin Snack Face Mist at her work desk to keep her hydrated and refreshed all day. Of course, she protects her skin everyday with the Skin Shield Natural Sunscreen. “I stopped using sunscreens as they would break me out with dermatitis, but with this one, I have not had any reactions at all!” As a once a week treat, Deborah uses the Rose and Bamboo Gentle-Foliant to (gently!) remove any buildup of dead skin, and the Ultra Nourishing Booster Mask to deeply soothe, nourish and moisturise the skin. And what results has she seen from her new routine? “My skin isn’t red, definitely not itchy, not irritated. It feels hydrated. I’m so happy and confident in my skin!” Deborah has some advice for anyone struggling with skin concerns. “Reach out to one of esmi’s skin consultants and they will guide you on your skin journey.” “I am so glad I reached out to one of the consultants who knows what they’re talking about and guided me to where I am today. I hope that you’re going to be as happy with your skin journey as I am!” We’re so thrilled to see Deborah’s amazing skin transformation and we’d like to thank her for sharing her skin story with us!

Real Results: Erica's Story
“I have never felt so confident in my own skin, I am beautiful.” We’re really excited to introduce Erica and share the amazing results she’s achieved treating acute adult acne with esmi Skin Minerals. Erica struggled with acne throughout her teenage years but dealing with adult acne, she says, was even more challenging. “Having adult acne was worse for me.” “I’m a working mum, I’m busy and rushing around. Always feeling so self-conscious about leaving the house with no makeup was consuming. I would just feel awful about myself.” After a bad reaction to prescription medication and loss at what to do next, overwhelmed Erica reached out to our skincare team to seek help for her acne. “I was honestly lost, I had tried so many brands and treatments, I just didn’t know what to do. After reaching out to the skincare team on Facebook they jumped on board to help me with a skincare routine.” “The response was so fast, lovely, and compassionate because it was obviously something I was really self-conscious about.” After helping Erica choose the right products to begin treating her skin, our consultants continued to guide her on slowly introducing new products over the next 12 months. This steady approach helped strengthen and improve Erica’s skin without overwhelming it. “Over the last 12 months, they’ve been there the whole way through.” “They’ve helped with slight changes along the way and have always been there to answer all my questions.” Erica’s before and after photos say it all. Her results are incredible! “My breakouts have significantly reduced - pretty much gone. If I do have breakouts I have the tools to fight them so I no longer get the awfully painful acne.” “The esmi team has helped me work on the acne scarring I have which has also improved so much.” Erica’s advice if you’re considering esmi Skin Minerals and a consultation with our skin consultants? “100% go for it.” “I have never felt so confident in my own skin. I am beautiful.” We’re SO happy to see your results Erica! Thank you for sharing your skin journey with esmi Skin Minerals.
