We know that hydrated skin is happy, plump and radiant skin, but do we always know how to achieve it, and is it simply a matter of adding moisture?

Good hair should be easy. It should be wake up, shake out, and smooth some product through [if you’re feeling fancy].

At Sans, that’s our belief. To us, good hair is healthy hair; strong, resilient and low maintenance. Not the result of a 12-step routine, but of a simple, balanced one.

So how do you achieve it? We’ve compiled some of our key tips for maintaining healthy, naturally beautiful hair.

Tight, dull, reactive — or just not quite right? 

When your skin feels off, it’s often your barrier sending an SOS. These subtle shifts — tightness, dullness, sensitivity — are early signs your skin’s protective layer may be compromised and in need of support. 

We asked our founder, Lucy Vincent, to explain what happens when the skin barrier breaks down — and how a targeted repair ritual can help bring it back into balance.

Skin problems are often a reflection of inner imbalances that can be helped through eating and drinking in a way that supports the body.

Skin inflammation is a far more common condition than most of us realise. In the same way as flowing water slowly erodes rock, the changes it causes become significant over time.
