In today’s so-called ''stress society,'' our skin is constantly exposed to new sources of stress. It is well known that ultraviolet (UV) rays, dryness, and chemical substances negatively affect the skin. Focusing on skin stresses and the skin's natural abilities, the skincare brand SKINFONIA believes that "if you can turn skin stress into your ally, it could be the key to maintaining beautiful skin".

We explored in detail the skin stress harmony theory—essential insights for anyone concerned about aging signs or sensitive skin.
