For the final week of Dr. Barbara Sturm’s 21-DAY ANTI-INFLAMMATORY RESET we are focusing on skin, and the ingredient science, expert techniques and essential products to integrate into your day-to-day routine. Dr. Sturm's anti-inflammatory approach to skincare means using products that effectively combat rather than contribute to inflammation, and provide protection of skin barrier function, hydration, nutrition and healing for a radiant and fresh complexion. 

To start your skin reset, it’s important to find a skincare regimen that works for you. Remember, there is no one-size-fits-all skincare solution, so an individualized approach is crucial to finding the right ingredients for your skin. Get your personalized skincare routine via a 1-to-1 virtual consultation with a Dr. Sturm aesthetician here, or by using our routine finder. Alternatively, if you prefer, you can start with one of Dr. Sturm’s simple, 3-step essentials sets, created for dry, combination or oily skin.  

Gentle lymphatic drainage is a key element of every Dr. Barbara Sturm facial. Why? Lymphatic drainage is amazing at helping filter out toxins (which show up in on our faces as skin puffiness, dryness, dullness and even sensitivity) and encouraging flow to prevent the skin becoming congested. It’s easier to do yourself than you think. Give yourself a lymphatic drainage massage at home with this simple guide – try it after cleansing, using the SUPER ANTI-AGING NIGHT CREAM to help ease movement.  

When it gets cooler and humidity is low, it’s important to use products that are more lipid and antioxidant-rich to double up on hydration, soothe irritation and protect against the winter elements. Dr. Sturm’s FACE CREAM RICH is packed with powerful antioxidants, essential lipids and plant oils that deliver multi skin-boosting benefits, moisturizing, soothing and strengthening the complexion for skin that is softer, stronger, more supple, and relieved from dryness long-term. 
 

Rejuvenate your skin’s glow and experience a moment of relaxation with Dr. Barbara Sturm’s sought-after Signature STURMGLOW™️ Facial, available at Dr. Sturm’s global Spa & Boutiques, including London, New York and Miami. The restorative treatment combines cleansing, exfoliating and hydration with a firming massage to help boost the skin barrier, improve overall skin health and leave your complexion with a healthy glow. If you can’t get to one of Dr. Sturm’s spas, try this at-home facial for an instant skin refresh.   

Skin that functions effectively naturally exudes radiance, health and vitality. If your skin is lacklustre, it could be due to several factors; dehydration, lack of exercise and sleep, an unbalanced diet, environmental aggressors, a build-up of dead skin cells, dryness and more. Making sure you get adequate sleep, daily exercise and enjoy a balanced, healthy diet will work on the inside to boost skin health – and on the outside, use skincare ingredients that gently brighten the complexion, even skin tone and lighten pigmentation for a healthy glow.    

Supplements are a great addition to your diet if you are looking for an extra glow, or a solution to a persistent skin issue like dryness, irritation or acne; even a well-balanced diet cannot always provide the body and the skin with all the nutrients it needs to stay healthy. Dr. Sturm created the oral supplement collection STURM INSIDE, to support the skin from the inside-out with potent antioxidants, vitamins and adaptogens. Discover the ingredient science behind the supplements and which you should take to boost your own skincare routine here.  

Close your 21-DAY ANTI-INFLAMMATORY RESET with a deep and restorative skin treatment. Dr. Sturm’s FACE MASK is the ideal way to unwind - and perfect for every skin type, tone and concern. For an intensive moisture treatment, keep it on until the FACE MASK has completely dried and is no longer visible before rubbing it off in gentle motions. Your skin will be left with a supercharged STURMGLOW™️.
