Topical skincare, while beneficial, isn't a bandage solution for poor lifestyle choices, as lasting skin health fundamentally requires a balanced diet, adequate hydration, and overall well-being—and natural skincare brand Consonant acknowledges this. "If we only focused on the products, we would be doing a disservice to our community by leaving out half of the skin care equation," Erika Schwass, Science and Wellbeing Manager of the Canadian brand told Primer, "So not only does our research and development include studying and testing our ingredients and products, but also evaluating how we can amplify the benefits of the products with evidence-based wellness pairings."
On Consonant's blog, readers will find articles about the benefits of breathwork for skin, and how having connections and close relationships with others can also improve skin health.
