Not working out because you’ve got sensitive skin? Or exercise makes you turn red…red like the sun…on Mars? Acne? Don’t let skin problems keep you from getting your body healthy. Working out (daily, is the latest recommendation) isn’t just fantastic for your heart and muscles, but your brain and, yes, your skin, too!
PROBLEM, SENSITIVE, AT-RISK SKIN
Rosacea, Seborrheic Dermatitis, Skin Cancer Risk
JP, VMV COO
His activities: Futbol (we were made to promise to write it like that), Golf, Tennis, Yoga, Bootcamp
Because of his skin history and risk profile, JP avoids the sun as much as possible and “bathes in” Armada Sport 70. Rosacea can worsen when it’s hot, so he’s religious about his Red Better regimen. And JP’s a Boo-Boo Balm fan for rashes, blisters and scrapes. “It’s funny hearing ‘Boo-Boo Balm’ passed around at rough games, but the guys don’t care because it works!”
OILY SKIN
Acne, Powerful Sun Protection
Alex, Diving Instructor
Her activities: Diving, Yoga, Exploring
Alex prefers Armada Post-Procedure Barrier Cream 50+: “Great coverage against strong tropical sun, makes the complexion glow, doesn’t make my skin sticky or oily, great pimple cure and prevention. The best.” What does she change in the summer? “Nothing! After trying tons of products VMV is my dream solution :)”
COMBINATION-TO-OILY SKIN
School Stress, Acne
Mireya, Teen
Her activities: Highly Active…just a lot of things
“I’m up and about a lot,” says Mireya. The one constant? Her Hydra Balance SuperSkin Care regimen for combination skin — but in the summer, she switches her toner to Superskin 3 for oily skin. She doesn’t leave home without Red Better Spot Corrector for zit emergencies!”
