Louise's skin journey with Skinome
Louise, 38 years from Oxelösund found Skinome via the podcast Huddoktorerna. A podcast about skin and skin care by Skinome's founders Dr. Johanna Gillbro and Dr. Petra Kjellman. After years of dealing with tough skin conditions, inappropriate products and treatments, Louise found a skincare routine that works and has given her a healthier and stronger complexion. We interviewed Louise about her skin journey and how she feels about her skin today.

What has your skin journey looked like?

When I was in my 20s, I developed adult acne which turned into rosacea in my 30s. I've always had dry skin and have tried various skincare routines, products and treatments. In retrospect, I have realized that I have used far too many products, but I have always wanted to find products that can relieve my rosacea and winter dry skin.

What has your relationship with your skin been like?

My relationship with my skin deteriorated when I got my skin conditions. I became very complex about my skin when first the acne appeared, then the scars and later the rosacea.

Can you describe how your skin feels and how it looks today?

Today my skin feels much healthier and can cope with weather changes in a completely different way than before, before I could get acne in the summer and very dry skin in the winter. I can still get rosacea outbreaks but much milder than before. I do not get stressed today and order home a lot of skin care but stick to my skin care routine.

Which Skinome products do you use and what is your routine?

Min hudvårdsrutin under sommaren startar med att jag sköljer ansiktet lätt med vatten på morgonen. Sedan smörjer jag in ansiktet med Intense Emulsion och Sun Emulsion SPF 50+. På kvällen rengör jag ansiktet med Mineral Cleanser och smörjer in ansiktet med Rich Emulsion och Probiotic Concentrate.

Under vinterhalvåret startar jag morgonen på samma sätt såvida det inte är minusgrader, då brukar jag hoppa över att skölja ansiktet och smörjer istället direkt in med Intense Emulsion och Probiotic Concentrate. På kvällen rengör jag med Mineral Cleanser och smörjer med Rich Emulsion och Probiotic Concentrate. Jag försöker låta huden vila så mycket som möjligt och använder bara smink om jag ska till kontoret.

What change or positive effect have you experienced with Skinome products?

I feel that my skin has become more resilient since I started using Skinome. Now I don't get acne in the summer and don't get as dry in the winter. Also, my rosacea has improved considerably!

Would you recommend Skinome to other people?

I would recommend Skinome any day of the week! I have saved both time, money and got a healthier skin. However, it should be mentioned that it was not completely problem-free from the beginning, I started with Night Active Retinol which turned out to be a little too active for my skin. I then contacted Skinome and got help to put together a kit that suited my skin much better and that's when I started to see results.
