Exfoliate that skin!

Old skin cells are opaque and don’t reflect the light. Rid the skin of dead cells to reveal that healthy glow!

Why exfoliate?

Exfoliation refers to any technique that removes cells from the skin surface including scrubs, peels, masques, dermabrasion, and laser. Everyone exfoliates naturally but an exfoliating regimen is helping the body along which is vital as we age. Teenagers completely regenerate the external layer of skin on an average of every 14 days. By the time one is 40, however, the natural turnover rate is only 30 to 40 days resulting in dull skin. Help the skin to exfoliate to refresh skin and stimulate that cell renewal!

Exfoliate with a soft toothbrush weekly. Treat those lips with care!

Eye make-up removers a must!

Eye make-up needs special solvents to dissolve it fully while at the same time respecting the delicate eye tissues. A separate eye make-up remover is essential.

Bathing is a ritual!

Soap makers use their creativity by throwing in olive, coconut, palm, argan or sunflower oils. They infuse with mixes of fragrant flowers, fruits or vegetables. They blend seaweed, shea butter or honey. Stir in nuts and seeds to exfoliate.
Soaps – for a truly wonderful bathing experience!

Daily cleansing is just not enough. Face should be deeply cleansed at least 1-2 times a week to ensure skin and pores are clear of dead skin cells, dirt, make-up and sunscreen. Add a deep pore cleanser to that routine! Cleaning skin deeply will revive, freshen and skin will just glow.

Masque it!

Masques are wonderful. Choose one that is perfect for skin type. Remember skin changes with the season so address skin’s needs. If skin has various needs use several masques applied to different parts of the skin for effective results.

Enhance curls? Wash hair wisely!

Well moisturized hair won’t absorb water from the atmosphere and become frizzy so condition that hair. Every other day is best for washing to protect hair from being stripped of natural oils but condition every day!

March Must-Have

Esthederm’s Gentle Deep Pore Cleanser is our absolute favorite for deeply cleaning the skin. So effective and leaves the skin absolutely clean and glowing!

March Specials

Need extra hydration this winter? Choose moisturizers and serums with Hyaluronic Acid. This molecule helps the skin hold on to extra moisture, leaving the skin supple and rejuvenated. The best!

Dry body skin?

Don’t air-dry after a bath or shower as water evaporates into the air taking valuable natural moisture with it. Gently pat skin with a towel as quickly as possible, then moisturize.

Paddle that hair!

An oversized paddle brush is perfect for polishing hair or getting short bobs to lay flat. It is also good for blow-drying very long hair because it can grab many strands at a time. What a difference a brush makes!

February Must-Have

Pevonia’s Preserve Body Moisturizer! Quick absorption, hydrates, soothes, restores elasticity and skin is so silky smooth. Simply wonderful!

Depletion of hormones associated with menopause can result in much drier skins, lines & wrinkles and cellular water loss. Step up by introducing serums into your routine for more concentrated results. Apply that fabulous serum under your moisturizer both AM and PM for powerful results.

Lip tips!

Lips lose definition and fullness as we age. Use soft lip colors that are just a shade or two darker than your natural lip color. Add a dab of lip gloss in the center for that extra shine! Soft and pretty!

Fragrance power!

Dry skin does not hold on to a fragrance as well as hydrated skin. Be sure to moisturize before applying your scent – especially during the wintertime.

Dehydration of the skin’s surface, the epidermis, occurs through a process called trans-epidermal moisture loss. The major causes are evaporation and removal of sebum (oil) from the surface of skin by use of harsh, drying soaps and cleansers. It is vitally important to the health of the skin to maintain the Natural Moisture Factor and acid mantle. Choose products that supplement and augment the skin’s natural protection or regulate excess oils but still maintain moisture levels. Always respect the function of the skin.

Over- exfoliation?

Too much exfoliation can result in dry, over sensitized skin and can lead to premature aging. Choose products carefully.

Chapped Lips?

Wind and chilly weather zap the moisture from your lips. Use a thick, waxy lip balm to soothe and protect them from drying out.

December Must-Have

YBF’s Quench! Do away with the look of lips that are winter-worn or aged-looking! A true treatment to the lips.

Peptides act as messengers in the skin, providing signals to cells to regenerate. A powerhouse ingredient for all skin types. Make it a part of a daily routine for powerful repair to tissues.

Sleeping in make-up?

Try and never go to bed with make-up on. It can clog pores and most importantly slow down the skin’s natural regeneration process. Clean, moisturized skin at night repairs!

Exfoliate those feet!

Exfoliating is the key to helping calluses, cracks and dry heels. Scrub softened feet in the shower with a buffer daily. And moisturize!

November’s Must- Have

Credo’s Professional Foot Buffer followed by Gehwol’s Foot Salve for Cracked Skin is the perfect combination for soft, smooth feet. True results.

Hyperpigmentation – when too much melanin is produced, deposits are formed and hyperpigmentation (discoloration) appears. Sun’s rays, hormones and acneic break outs are causes. Kojic Acid and Arbutin, which are natural alternatives to hydroquinone can help break up this discoloration. The natural plant glycosides have shown to interfere in the melanin process preventing further accumulation of excess melanin; thereby less hyperpigmentation. Choose high pharmaceutical grade skin products containing these key ingredients to achieve dramatic lightening results.

Undercover!

To cover occasional breakout, look for medicated concealers containing salicylic acid to both cover and help eradicate at the same time. For a more natural solution tee tree and lavender oil concealers work well. For small hyperpigmented areas dot on just concealer, blend in lightly and most importantly set with translucent powder.

Lips, lips, lips!

It is easier to apply lipstick straight from the tube but if lipstick is really to last nothing beats applying it with a brush.

October Must-Have: SkinCeutical’s Phyto +

A botanical gel to target that hyperpigmentation effectively. Kojac Acid, Arbutin along with botanical extracted work synergistically improving the skin. Hyaluronic case nourishes the tissues. Fantastic.

Also known as L-Ascorbic acid, Vitamin C stimulates collagen production and decreases the damaging effects of sun exposure and free radicals. Look for Vitamin C products in a serum form with at least 10% concentrate and packaged either in powder form or liquid form in dark, opaque bottles to ensure stability.

Less is more!

Great make-up application is using less. The key is to enhance facial features and at the same time cover flaws and even skin tone in a natural way. Less is definitely more. Play up just one best feature – lips, cheeks, or eyes and minimize the rest for a natural, flattering look.

The Brush Off!

Which make-up brushes are really needed? Powder, blush, eyeshadow are a must. Kabuki brushes are the best for mineral loose powder. Dome brushes are for mineral pressed powders. The rest such as camouflage, lip, eyeliner, brow and dusters are wonderful extras. Remember natural hair bristles (goat and sable) are best for applying powder evenly. Synthetic bristles are best for applying liquids or creams because they do not soak up the wet product.

September’s Must Have:

Esthederm’s Intensif Vitamin C Powder Serum – a highly defined and stable concentrate presented in a constant and highly bio-available form for results. The best!

September Specials:

Thorough cleansing is a most critical step as proper cleansing produces immediate skin care benefits. Use soap- free products to cleanse the skin of impurities as well as leaving the acid balance of the skin to protect skin’s natural moisture balance.

Cleansing the Eyes!

This area needs careful treatment, as eyelid skin is extremely thin and more sensitive to allergy and irritation. This skin contains very few sebaceous (oil) glands and can therefore be prone to dryness. Choose cleansers as well as creams designed specifically for the eye area and treat delicately in applications of product.

Great Scrubs!

Facial scrubs – in addition to daily cleansing – get rid of dead cells, give skin a healthy glow and increase circulation which is imperative for healthy cell regeneration. Facial scrubs make up for nature’s slowdown of cell renewal!

August Must Have

Clarisonic’s “Professional” Pro Sonic Skin Cleanser. The professional advantage.
Three speeds for the face plus a fourth higher speed for a body mode. The best!
