British Beauty Council Patron By Sarah London was the silver lining of Sarah and Lauren’s traumatic journey, with Lauren being diagnosed with life-threatening leukaemia, and Sarah being her stem-cell donor. When Lauren was recovering, skin health expert Sarah began developing soothing plant-oil formulations to restore Lauren’s dry, irritated and sensitive skin, as she reacted to many natural ranges. Today, the very skincare blends that were once only intended to rejuvenate Lauren’s skin, are now loved by so many.

 

Our skin barrier is the unsung hero of radiant, healthy skin. Why? It acts as our skin’s shield, protecting it from environmental aggressors, irritants, and bacteria, while holding onto all the good stuff, like moisture and ceramides. When the skin barrier is compromised, sensitivity, dryness and acne can be some of the visible results, as well as stinging and redness. By Sarah London works to repair and strengthen our skin’s protector. How? The pared-back approach to skincare is the foundation of the brand. Overloading the skin with multiple steps can make it more vulnerable. By Sarah London’s routine embraces slow beauty to ensure that skin is fed the nutritional benefits it needs to thrive. The end result? A clear, hydrated complexion, smooth texture, and more even skin tone.
