Skin Care Tip #23
Clarisonic Beauty Tip
For clean radiant skin, superficial cleansing won¹t cut the mustard. For a luminous complexion you need to deeply cleanse. If you don¹t have the time or products to do an effective cleansing use a washcloth with your cleanser. The nap of the cloth will slough off most of the dead skin cells that give the skin that dull, listless appearance. For sensitive skin you may want to use a baby washcloth as it has a softer texture. For the ultimate cleansing use the Clarisonic Skin Care System. Clarisonic has been proven to be twice as effective as washing by hand, gentle enough to use on all types of skin and may be used with any cleansing product for your specific indications. Additionally you will save money as you will use less product and have better absorption of any specialty treatment serums and gels. You will love your skin!
Skin Care Tip #22
Laying the Groundwork for an Effective Regimen
If your goal is to speed up skin care results, be sure to choose a regimen that focuses primarily on exfoliation. Choose an aggressive line of products formulated to work synergistically with one another in order to amp up cellular turnover. Chemical exfoliation sheds layers of dead skin cells, unveiling luminosity while preparing the skin for the absorption of active products. Additionally, it stimulates collagen production and improves the elasticity of the skin. The first step of any effective regimen is a thorough cleansing of the face. Try a results oriented, highly rated cleanser such as Obagi Nu-Derm Foaming Gel and follow with the physician formulated Nu-Derm System from Obagi to achieve your goal.
Skin Care Tip #21
Less Is More
To achieve the most radiant, luminous face, remember three key words, “less is more!” Nothing ages you more than a cakey, over applied, and ill-suited color choice of foundation. Another faux pas is the dreaded “line of demarcation” where the foundation distinctly stops at the jaw line. Bring the makeup down the neck and feather it out until it is virtually invisible. Additionally, use a loose powder mineral foundation that you can layer until you feel the coverage is correct. A Get Started Kit from bareMinerals contains mineral foundation in perfect color combinations with brushes to facilitate a flawless finish.
Skin Care Tip #20
Quality Ingredients = Quality Results
When choosing a moisturizer, always look at the ingredients list. It’s a tell-tale sign of quality and efficacy. For dry, aging skin look for ingredients such as avocado oil, shea butter, rose hip, and green tea along with anti-oxidants such as vitamins C and E, and anti-aging ingredients such as retinyl palmitate (vitamin A). A good example is Jurlique Moisture Replenishing Day Cream. This Jurlique product is paraben-free and may be used on all skin types but works exceptionally well and is highly recommended for dry skin.
Skin Care Tip #19
Your Answer To Acne
When fighting acne, think outside the box. Skipping the moisturizer and drying out the skin with harsh products can actually lead to more oil production.
When treating acne your best bet is a regimen with just a few steps consisting of an effective cleanser, moisturizer, and night treatment, all geared toward fighting and preventing blemishes. Then to potentiate the treatment add new science! ANSR light therapy is an excellent example.
By using a simple but effective regimen and adding an easy to use beam of light (called phototherapy) specific to killing acne causing bacteria you will find a regimen that once and for all clears your skin. The answer for you is simply called ANSR Acne Starter Kit.
