Anti-Aging Help For Sensitive Skin

Breaking Up Is Hard To Do – Part II

Super Sensitive Skin

Are You Too Gentle?

Yes, it’s possible.

If you have dry skin or sensitive skin,
do you opt for mild products and skip exfoliation?

Of course, this makes sense.
A good habit.

BUT:

If you never exfoliate, or don’t exfoliate frequently enough,
you’ll acquire a build-up of dead skin cells,
which leads to clogged pores, acne and a dull complexion.

The build-up prevents products from penetrating
the surface of your skin, making it even harder
for mild products to do their job.

You MUST Exfoliate

Yes, you must.

If you have sensitive skin, try exfoliating once a week
and three times a week if you have oily skin.

If once a week with mild products is still too much
for your sensitive skin, consult with your
Ageless Remedies aesthetician
to develop a custom routine that will be gentle but effective.

Our Ageless Remedies Skin Care Customized products
can be personalized for your needs.

And don’t forget that every 4 – 6 weeks
you should have a professional treatment,
microdermabrasion or chemical peel.

Are you convinced?  Or afraid?

Breaking Up Is Hard To Do

First in a series.

There are many recommended skin care habits universally deemed “good” for you.

But, sometimes you may have too much of a good thing.

According to the Skincare-news.com team,
some “good” skin care habits may actually be more detrimental than helpful.

Habit: Adhering to the Same Skin Care Routine

Daily routines of cleansing and moisturizing are vital
for maintaining healthy skin and avoiding clogged pores,
breakouts and thirsty skin.

BUT:

While consistency is key, it can lead to
lackluster skin and little to no improvement
because your skin becomes used to the same products.

SO:

Change Your Routine!

Try a higher concentration of ingredients.

If a topical treatment with 2.5 percent benzoyl peroxide
isn’t doing the trick for your acne,
try one with 5 percent.

If a cleanser with 15 percent glycolic acid still leaves your skin looking dull,
try one with 20 percent.

Have you noticed this?

Tell me your experience in the comment box.

Listen to your skin and adjust for the seasons as necessary.
Better yet, ask your aesthetician at Ageless Remedies SouthPark!

She Knows the Truth

Skin Care Myths or

Don’t Waste Your Money

Part II

“(The role of) a skin care professional has a large educational component that mandates remaining current in the field, as well as providing education on skin health to clients and patients…(We) are not selling hope in a jar, but rather providing realistic and truthful solutions to help deal with extrinsic and intrinsic aging.”

Here are 5 important facts from an article in Skin Inc.
by Carol and Rob Trow:

  1. Be careful how you wash your face. Overuse of scrubs can remove protective oils and contribute to aging.  Less is more, and a gentle cleanser and light moisturizer work well for most people.
  2. Packaging IS important — not for aesthetic reasons, but to protect the integrity of the ingredients. Don’t waste your money on clear or transparent containers.
  3. There is NO evident that the topical application of collagen or elastin can penetrate the dermis.
  4. If a product sounds too good to be true, the claims are probably false. Skin damage and signs of aging cannot be repaired quickly.
  5. Less is more when it comes to skin care products.  You should use only what you need, usually about a pea-sized dot.

I know that skin care products are expensive but I hope you
get an expert’s opinion about what is best FOR YOU.

Have you bought some products, even expensive ones,
and then been disappointed?

Anti-Aging and…Water???

Saturday, October 16th, 2010

Just drink water to look like me!

The Secret to Beautiful Skin?

  

Here’s what Deborah Chase just posted in her “No Nonsense Beauty Blog”:  

Its hard to pick up a newpaper or magazine without reading of another celebrity  who credits her  good looks to-wait for it- drinking  plenty of water.  For example Kim Kardashian   has admitted to  extensive laser hair removal (” hey, I’m Armenian”) and  posted  photos of her post- Botox bruises.    

Yet in an interview she credits her luminous skin and incredible body to drinking water.
 
Now I have nothing against water but its not the fountain  of youth.  I drink it every day and in fact I  especially like Poland Spring water  which is from a real  spring and not  just filtered  reservoir water.  And I can understand that iconic beauties don’t want to reveal their use of Botox, fillers, lasers or even IPL.    

But why  can’t they  share some  real beauty advice that is safe and affordable such as   Retin A, glycolic peels or microdermabrasion.    

Something more honest than water.  

 Ageless Elaine couldn’t agree more.  

What Do You Think?

who definitely drinks a lot of water
(my favorite is Pellegrino because it reminds of my years in Italy)
but also loves her Botox, fillers, peels, and fractional laser treatments…

An Aesthetician: Your Beauty Expert

   

    

Anti-Aging and Aestheticians

    

Aestheticians, by definition, are skilled in giving beauty treatments.
Aesthetics, speaking philosophically, concerns the nature of beauty.
(aesthetician)
    

What Does an Aesthetician Do?

An aesthetician is a licensed skin care professional trained to use treatments for beauty and health.
I love that!
    

  • skin analysis
  • facials
  • microdermabrasion
  • chemical peels
  • laser treatments
  • make-up artistry
  • skin care regimes

   

What Does an Aesthetician Learn?

  • Anatomy (skin types, head, bones, nerves, cells, tissue)
  • Chemistry (compounds, ingredients)
  • Safety (special equipment, treatments)
  • Sanitation procedures (bacteriology, sterilization)

I am awed every day by the knowledge of our aestheticians.   

Do You Want Healthy, Beautiful, Young-Looking Skin?

An aesthetician is your anti-aging expert!
From analysis, through treatments and product selection,
he or she can change the way you look
and how you feel about your appearance.
  

An aesthetician cares about BEAUTY!
