According to the World Health Organisation, mental wellbeing is at an all-time low.1 Many factors play into this, such as the current wars, economic uncertainty, social pressure combined with toxicity on social media, the ever-increasing polarization in the political landscape – the list goes on and on.

The level of psychological stress is extremely high and affects us mentally as well as physically. In addition to insomnia, loss of appetite, tension, headache and stomach pain that are common symptoms, our skin suffers, too. Irritation, redness and feelings of tension can be caused by stress and also have a negative impact on mental wellbeing — a vicious circle.

On the other hand, skin irritations, such as redness, itching, feelings of tension, rough skin or pimples, reduce our wellbeing enormously.
