Dermalogica

For those with skin that requires a little more maintenance and upkeep than others, Dermalogica has always stepped up to the task. The gender-neutral brand introduces its latest skin’s best friend in the form of the Stabilizing Repair Cream formulated for sensitive skin.

Did you know, that globally, there are up to 70% of people experience sensitive skin? The damage to our skin barrier which results in sensitivity may be caused by a whole host of factors ranging from genetics, lifestyle, or environmental reasons. Regardless, one thing is sure: sensitive skin barriers are often damaged and need a chance to recover.

Dermalogica’s new Stabilizing Repair Cream is a barrier-repairing moisturizer that promises to stop sensitive skin within one week by helping skin produce more of its ceramides. Featuring a proprietary ceramide-building complex, the cream works to help strengthen the skin's barrier while also delivering skin-nourishing lipids, helping it become more resilient and less reactive over time. The lightweight balm-to-cream formula boasts soothing Cica and a botanical blend that relieves symptoms like itching, redness, and dryness. Try it for yourself.

Homeowner Slams Bin Man Online, Turns Out He Was Following Rules
A bin man was captured on CCTV leaving a rubbish bag on the ground late in December, sparking criticism on social media from an annoyed resident. The twist? The worker was following the rules.The incident, captured in Hull, UK, by Sam Turner’s Ring cam, shows a bin man taking a rubbish bag off the top of a bin and setting it down instead of putting it in the truck—a moment Turner thought was of questionable efficiency. Turner took to social media, sharing the clip to express his discontent.“Remind me why I pay you over £130 a month,” he wrote.However, upon checking the Hull City Council recycling guide, it said that when collecting black bins, only “what is inside the bin” will be collected, and the lid must be closed.Though the bin man’s actions may have seemed inefficient, he was indeed following the letter of the bin law.
