Kaisa & atopic, acne-prone skin

Kaisa & atopic, acne-prone skin

Laponie was born out of our founder Kristina’s need to find products for her sensitive and challenging skin, and now our mission is to help you take care of your skin the right way. A while back we asked our customers to take part in a three-week-long Laponie test group, in which we created a customised and individual, daily skincare routine to tackle different skin issues and problems. This is Kaisa’s story about how our products helped her with her atopic, acne-prone sensitive skin.

Kaisa's skinstory: "I was diagnosed with PCOS at the age of 25 and diagnosed with atopy a few years later. I am now 35 years old. I have acne and very reactive skin (rashes, ulcers and eczema) has also accompanied me throughout adulthood. I’ve tried everything on my skin, from cortisone creams to antibiotics and Roaccutane courses. I've had a lot of diseases that affect hormones, which obviously show up on my skin, still."

We created a skin care routine for Kaisa which included our Milk Cleanser in the morning and our Oil Cleanser in the evening, followed by our soothing and moisturising Balancing Essence and Face Oil. When Kaisa's skin had calmed down, the Calming Serum  would be added to the routine, and the Hydrating Face Mask & Cream used as a mask once a week. 

"I have now taken care of my skin with Laponie's Milk and Oil cleansers, Balancing Essence and Face Oil. A few times a week, I've used the Mask. After two weeks, I also started using the Calming Serum in the evenings. On some days when my face felt tight, I left the Mask on my face overnight. I've been doing this now for almost four weeks. During this time, I have noticed that I haven't has as many impurities as before. My skin also doesn't get as red. The most noticeable change in my skin is the softness and elasticity. My skin is really soft.”

Based on Kaisa's feedback we decided to continue the test period, and modified the routine so that in the morning the Calming Serum was used, and we added our Renewing Serum in the evening to brighten skin and also treat impurities. After a test period of approximately seven weeks in total, we received Kaisa's updated feedback.

"I personally feel that my skin is significantly softer, and the reactivity has decreased significantly. My skin tone has also evened out. I will probably never get rid of the broken blood vessels completely, but I think the surface dryness and impurities have also decreased. I will definitely continue with your products. I love them so much.”
