RESPECTING THE SKIN’S HYDROGEN POTENTIAL

CHRISTOPHER HANLON® Laboratories respect and nourish the skin’s microbiome which consists of billions of vital living microorganisms that colonise, nurture and protect the skin’s delicate surface. This ecosystem helps form an invisible lipid barrier which shields the epidermis from destructive irritants that can damage skin tissue and accelerate skin ageing. The skin’s microbiome allows the acid mantle to thrive with health. For this reason CHRISTOPHER HANLON® Laboratories formulate gentle dermal skin exfoliating, renewal, acid based and AHA formulations using intelligent skin molecular-repair technology. In fact CHRISTOPHER HANLON® champions the role as a captain of ‘Sensitive Anti-Âge Skincare’ using gentle biomimetic cosmetic technologies that exclusively promote skin repair, elasticity, hydration and firmness – without irritation. Store below 25ºC.

THE SKIN’S pH FACTOR

Did you know pH is a chemical abbreviation of the French words ‘potentiel hydrogène’ – hydrogen potential? And that the numeral(s) indicate a measure of the acidity level? On average the skin’s pH is 4.5 - 5.5 meaning healthy skin is slightly acidic. A pH of 7 (that of pure water) is considered neutral. Anything below that is acidic and above it alkaline, so skin's natural pH is mildly acidic. This level of acidity plays a key role in how effective the skin’s barrier function is. The best skincare is pH balanced because any significant change in the skin’s pH can result in skin problems such as sensitivity, hypersensitivity, redness, irritation, dryness and blemishes. CHRISTOPHER HANLON® skincare is professionally formulated with a physiological pH, similar to the normal pH of healthy skin to protect the skin's barrier during moisturizing, repair and cleansing. CHRISTOPHER HANLON® Laboratories believe that preserving the skin’s natural acidity creates better conditions for a balanced skin's microbiome. In addition CHRISTOPHER HANLON® exclusively formulates instant-spray-on pH and microbiome skin correcting products, aptly called SKIN CORRECTING TONERS – use as needed 24/7.
