The Only Skincare Item You Need This Summer

Whether you’re due to jet off somewhere hot or make the most of the British summer, your skin will need extra TLC during the warmer, dryer months.

Forget bottles upon bottles of lotions and potions – we’ve made it simple for you. Enter Calm-Down Kefir Lotion, for all your Summer skin needs!

Chuckling Goat Calm-Down Kefir Lotion contains anti-inflammatory goats milk, award-winning Probiotic Kefir, Finnish oat oil, olive oil, rice bran oil and lavender essential oil. It’s gently anti-bacterial, soothing and smells gorgeous! Here’s why you need it this Summer –

To soothe sunburn

We’re hoping you’ve worn your SPF – but if you’re feeling a little sore after a day in the sunshine, the lavender essential oil contained in the Calm-Down Kefir Lotion will help reduce redness and inflammation. Lavender has long been used as a traditional remedy for burns and research has presented scientific data to confirm this use.1https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ptr.1103 According to a 2009 study, its antimicrobial activity might also help prevent infections after a burn.2https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19249919/

The natural anti-inflammatory properties of the goats milk and Probiotic Kefir within the lotion will also help treat UV-induced skin damage.3https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24364369/

To relieve irritation caused by bug bites

Lavender essential oil is a popular choice for treating bug bites and stings. It has soothing, pain-relieving properties and notable anti-inflammatory effects on a cellular level.4https://www.worldscientific.com/doi/abs/10.1142/S0192415X12500632 Lavender has also been found to be an effective bug repellent,5https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6925501/ making it less likely you’ll get bitten or stung in the first place!

To support your skin-biome

Your skin is home to millions of diverse bacterial ecosystems. Some of these microbes reinforce your skin’s natural barrier against bad bacteria, balance your skin’s pH levels and help prevent premature skin ageing.6https://www.forbes.com/sites/nomanazish/2019/03/30/why-probiotic-skin-care-is-worth-the-hype-according-to-experts So it’s important you maintain a healthy level of these ‘good’ microbes and keep the ‘bad’ to a minimum. Using probiotics topically creates an optimal environment for the good bugs, swinging the balance in your favour against the bad bugs.7https://www.forbes.com/sites/nomanazish/2019/03/30/why-probiotic-skin-care-is-worth-the-hype-according-to-experts

Research also suggests some probiotics feed healthy bacteria to balance the skin’s pH and protect against free radical damage.8https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352647515000155
