Master Your Skin Care Regimen

Great looking skin is something we all wish for. But achieving great looking skin, while certainly doable, takes commitment, perseverance, patience, and skin care. A proper at home skin care regime is one of the most important steps to achieving amazing looking skin. In fact, without it, I can almost guarantee your skin will not remain healthy. And unhealthy skin is not beautiful. Your skin care regime does not have to be extensive; however it should include some basic steps.
  • Always cleanse your face in the morning and before bed. Always! 

The reason why it’s important to wash your skin in the morning is because while you sleep at night, your skin is in repair mode and will secrete toxins and oil which can prevent your daytime products from working effectively. When you wash your skin in the morning, you’re not only removing the impurities and sebum. You’re also removing your nighttime products so that your daytime products will penetrate the skin.

In the evening you’re removing the days’ buildup of dirt, oils, environmental pollution. Your skin will “sigh” in relief!! By washing your face in the evening you are providing a clean surface for your nighttime skin care regime which will allow your skin care products to perform better.

  • After cleansing your skin the next step is applying your treatment products.

These are the products that an aesthetician would recommend for you. They can be numerous or few, depending on your skin type, your skin's needs, and your lifestyle. Some products people should be using are;

Growth factors – TNS Essential or TNS Recovery

Antioxidants and Vitamins (typically vitamin A, B, and C)

Skin Brighteners – Lytera 2.0

Skin Hydrators – HA5, Hydrating Serum

Eyelash strengtheners – Lattisse

  • The next step is applying a moisturizer.

Most people, but not all, need some type of moisture.  It can range from very light weight to emollient and sometimes change depending on the season.  This is also the step which I apply my eye cream.  I believe everyone will benefit by using an eye cream, every day, twice a day.

  • Applying a quality sunscreen every morning

Skin protection with an SPF of 30 or higher is of the utmost importance.  If you do nothing else, wash your face, and use sunscreen in the morning.

There you have it; a skin care regimen!
