Happy New Year!

A very happy new year from us all here at Cosmiko.  We have entered into a new decade, welcomed in 2020 and excited for what the new year will bring.  It’s normally at this time when we all try to make new year resolutions. Some of us look at ways that we can make changes and improvements in our lives.  Our skin care is something that should be included in that.  To help you, we are going to look at what is going to be new and up and coming in 2020.

CBD (short for Cannabidiol)

Naturally derived ingredients such as CBD (short for Cannabidiol) will continue to be as big in 2020 as it was in 2019.  CBD is the active compound extracted from the hemp plant, Cannabis Sativa.  It has many wide known healing properties.  It is an antioxidant and is proven to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties so is good for a wide range of uses including muscle pain and acne prone skin.  It’s also great for dry skin, psoriasis and eczema.  CBD can be added to most of our private label skin care products.

SPF (Sun Protection Factor)

SPF (sun protection factor) is still hugely important as we are all more educated on the harm that the sun’s rays can have on our skin.  We have a range of everyday SPF moisturising creams and serums that protect the skin from ageing for when you are exposed to low grade UVA on a daily basis (Ultraviolet A rays).  The moisturising creams and serums are not to be used as a replacement for sunscreen and are to be used as part of your daily skincare regime.
