Zuanna

🛑 If “sensitive skin” creams keep making your skin worse, read this…

One of my clients had been struggling with quite severe psoriasis across her legs — skin that was often reactive, uncomfortable, and sensitive to many products. She had tried multiple creams and products that claimed to be suitable for sensitive skin, but more often than not they seemed to make her skin even more irritated.

I introduced her to my Zuanna Sea Salt Sun Body Oil, and over time she noticed a significant difference in how her skin felt and looked — nourished, soothed, and far more comfortable.

I worked with her through holistic support — including nervous system regulation, diet, and lifestyle changes — and over time her skin became less reactive and inflamed. It’s important to understand that psoriasis is an autoimmune condition, which is why supporting the body both internally and externally is key.

What we put on our skin makes a huge difference. Many conventional creams contain fillers, binders, synthetic fragrances, or preservatives like phenoxyethanol, which can aggravate already sensitive or reactive skin. My Sea Salt Sun combines cold-pressed, nutrient-dense plant oils with soothing botanicals like aloe vera extract, watermelon seed, camellia, sunflower, and vitamin E to help nourish and support the skin barrier.

Every skin journey is different. If you’re struggling with ongoing skin concerns, I can support you in clinic at — feel free to reach out for a consult ✨

Who often should you exfoliate? Gentle yet effective formulas let you exfoliate more often without irritating your skin.

Our Zuanna Smoothing Minerals Exfoliating Mask combines gasshoul clay with a powerhouse of calming and refining botanicals:
• Rice powder → soft physical polish
• Oat & colloidal oats → soothing, protective
• Hibiscus → gentle natural AHA to refine texture
• Orange peel → brightening, adds glow
• Licorice root & marshmallow → calm, anti-inflammatory, comforting

This unique blend removes dead skin, smooths texture, and reveals brighter skin without stripping your skin barrier. 🌿✨

You can:
✨ Exfoliate regularly (every second day or daily if your skin loves it)
✨ Leave it on a little longer for deeper exfoliation
✨ Massage gently for extra polishing

Here’s some beautiful client feedback I received recently using my skin panel testing protocol.

This client came in with long-term rosacea she had been managing for several years. Through kinesiology skin panel testing, we were able to identify what best supported her body and skin, and she began use the products accordingly from Zuanna skincare.

These are the results — in her own words ⬇️

“I have been struggling with sore, lumpy, red, hot rosacea for 2 years. I tried so many different things to try and settle it, but it usually made it worse. Since working with Joanne and using various products from her Zuanna range, my skin has taken a massive turn.

Joanne muscle tested me to see what my body actually needed. It’s incredible to get feedback like that and feel understood on such a deep level. That kind of expertise and insight is so rare, and it’s completely changed everything after so long of trying different things. Amazing.

My skin feels so much more hydrated and smooth. My pores have reduced in size, the redness has been cut in half, and the lumps are almost gone.

I’m loving the ritual of using my gua sha with my facial oil in the mornings — it helps reduce puffiness and makes me look fresh and awake. Before this, it used to take hours for my face to wake up!

I also would never leave the house without makeup before — now I feel so much more confident.

I’m actually so, so happy and have already ordered more to make sure I don’t run out.”

✨ Struggling to switch off at night? ✨

Immersing in warm water isn’t just comforting — it helps regulate the nervous system, ease tension, and prepare the body for rest. When combined with botanical oils, a bath becomes a restorative treatment for the skin, replenishing hydration and supporting its natural barrier.

Our Jasmine + Rosehip Bath Oil enhances this experience with:
🌸 Rosehip oil to restore suppleness and encourage a healthy glow
🌸 Sultry jasmine and grounding cedarwood to uplift mood and soothe the senses
🌸 Cold-pressed plant oils that deliver deep hydration, free from fillers or synthetics

Slip into petals, breathe in the aroma, and let your bath become a sanctuary for both skin and mind. ✨

❌ Mainstream Toner vs Hydrosol 🌸

Did you know your skin absorbs what you put on it — often within seconds?

That’s why the ingredients in your toner matter.

Most mainstream toners contain:
❌ Drying alcohols
❌ Synthetic fragrances (common allergens)
❌ Preservatives + parabens (linked to hormone disruption)
❌ Harsh astringents that weaken the skin barrier
❌ Strips natural oils, leaving skin dry or tight

👉 These ingredients can pe*****te quickly, sometimes leading to sensitivity, inflammation, and long-term imbalance.

Hydrosols, on the other hand, are:
🌸 Condensation from steam-distilled botanical water (potent in plant actives)
🌸 Naturally rich in plant actives + antioxidants
🌸 pH-balancing without stripping oils
🌸 Hydrating + soothing, even for sensitive skin
🌸 Supporting the barrier and prepping for deeper nutrient absorption

✨ With hydrosols, you’re not just avoiding harm — you’re actively nourishing and protecting your skin in its most natural state.

Could your skincare routine be doing more harm than good? 🌿

Over-cleansing can strip your skin of natural oils, trigger dryness or excess oil, and disrupt its natural rhythm. Sometimes, less is more — and a gentle refresh might be all your skin really needs.

✨ Tip: Using an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup is crucial for skin balance. Oil naturally binds to oil, so it lifts makeup, sunscreen, and dirt without stripping your skin. Strong foaming cleansers can remove both dirt and your natural oils, leaving your skin tight, dry, or overcompensating with excess oil.

Notice how your skin feels, make small shifts, and give it a chance to adjust — over time, it will feel stronger, calmer, and more radiant.

Who else is missing summer right now? 🥶

With this drizzly weather lately, I can feel my skin starting to dry out! One of the best ways I keep it nourished through winter is by using body oils—they actually lock the moisture in, unlike some creams that can sit on the surface.

OLIENA has been my go-to lately—deeply hydrating, grounding, and leaves the skin feeling soft, not greasy.

It’s formulated with a powerhouse blend of organic & cold-pressed oils, including:

Kukui Oil ~ which deeply pe*****tes the skin to support elasticity and lock in moisture without feeling greasy

Camellia Oil – packed with vitamins A, B, C, D & E for a velvety, nourished finish

Vitamin E – strengthens your skin barrier and fights free radicals

Honeysuckle, known for supporting skin renewal and rejuvenation.

Healthy skin isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing what actually works. ✔️

These 3 habits are simple, effective, and often overlooked. Start here, and watch your skin shift. 💫
