Products

TSW FRIENDLY

TSW FRIENDLY

Here are various products our program offers that facilitate the healing process of TSW.

  • Dead Sea Salt

    Dead Sea salt is highly beneficial for the skin due to its rich mineral content, including magnesium, calcium, potassium, and sodium. These minerals help to hydrate the skin, improve circulation, and promote skin regeneration. The salts have natural exfoliating properties, helping to remove dead skin cells and reveal smoother, healthier skin. Additionally, Dead Sea salt is known for its anti-inflammatory and soothing effects, making it ideal for conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne. It also helps to detoxify the skin, reduce swelling, and improve overall skin texture, leaving it softer and more balanced.

  • Supplements / Vitamins

    Supplements and vitamins are beneficial for skin health, particularly during Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW). Vitamins A, C, and E promote skin healing, reduce inflammation, and support collagen production. Omega-3 fatty acids help with hydration and reduce skin irritation, while zinc aids in wound healing. Probiotics support gut health, which can positively impact skin conditions. These nutrients work together to restore the skin’s barrier, improve regeneration, and ease discomfort during TSW recovery.

  • Anti-Itch Gloves

    Anti-itch gloves are beneficial for skin, especially during Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW), as they help prevent scratching, which can worsen skin damage and irritation. TSW often causes intense itching and discomfort, leading to potential skin tears, scarring, and further inflammation when scratched. Anti-itch gloves provide a physical barrier that reduces the urge to scratch, allowing the skin to heal without additional trauma. They also help maintain moisture in the skin, preventing it from drying out, which can exacerbate irritation. By using these gloves, individuals with TSW can protect their skin, promote healing, and reduce the risk of secondary infections caused by scratching.

  • CJAY Serum

    CJAY Rejuvenate Serum is a specially formulated serum that supports skin cell regeneration and hydrates dry skin while protecting against environmental irritants.Its lightweight gel texture allows it to be absorbed easily and quickly, whilst offering soothing and calming relief. CJAY Rejuvenate Serum is fragrance-free, alcohol-free, sulphate-free and paraben-free, making it suitable for even the most sensitive and damaged skin.
