SKIN TIP 101 " WAKE UP YOUR SKIN'S CELLS!"

As we get Older, our Skin Cells get Lazier & don't regenerate as quickly. If you really want your Skin to look Younger, you've got to use a product that will reach down into the Dermis & WAKE UP those lazy Cells . You can do this with a Retinol or a Glycolic product. It's best to use a them in a Cream or Moisturizer at Night when you're Sleeping since they both attract the Sun. So..... go to Sleep, but while you're sleeping, Wake up those Cells, OK?

SKIN TIP 101 " YOU MAY LIKE TO DRINK IT, BUT IT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU WANT IN YOUR SKIN CARE PRODUCTS

Alcohol! It's found under various names - SD Alcohol, Ethyl Alcohol, Benzyl Alcohol, Isopropyl & Methanol. It dries out your Skin, causes Irritation & can lead to infection! Worst of all, they strip away Natural Oils & make you look Older! So WHY would you want to buy a product that has Alcohol in it? BTW - Drinking too much of it is not too good either.... for YOU or your SKIN, OK?!

SKIN TIP 101 " ARE YOU USING PRODUCTS THAT HAVE DIOXANE?!"

I sure hope not because it's an Ingredient that's been shown to cause Cancer! Believe it or not, it comes from Coconuts, but it is far from Natural. Did you know it's classified as an Ether? It's sometimes used as a Stabilizer in products & it's easily absorbed by your Skin - I'd recommend avoiding it completely! Check your labels -  You just may have a product that has Dioxane!

SKIN TIP 101 "ANOTHER GREAT SKIN CARE INGREDIENT IS SQUALANE!"

Let's talk about another great Skin Care Ingredient - SQUALANE. It's an Emollient that helps to slow Water loss & keep your Skin Soft & Supple. It's also a Humectant that increases the Water retention capacity of your Skin. It even helps your Skin absorb other great Ingredients that your Skin Care offers - What else can I say? Better get some Squalane in that Moisturizer!

SKIN TIP 101 "WHAT IS YOUR SKIN ABSORBING?"

Not just Skin Care products – even though that’s probably the thing that it absorbs most – be it good or BAD Ingredients! Your Skin Drinks in other things too – the Environment, the Air around you – the Sun - your Lifestyle – Your Skin takes it all in. So think about it .... Is your Skin absorbing great things that make it Younger looking, Smooth & Toned OR is it absorbing some Bad things that eventually make it look Old, Bad & Lifeless? Let's talk about The GOOD, The BAD & The UGLY - Which one are YOU?!

SKIN TIP 101 " ARE YOU DOING EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO DE-STRESS?"

Think about it - your Under Eye Dark Circles are the darkest - Your Skin looks the greyest & the splothyest ( is that even a word?) when you haven't had enough rest! You've stayed up way too late - Worked too hard, Played too hard, etc.... OK, so Work out, Laugh more - get some Sleep - You're sure going to feel better & your Skin? Ooooh, it's going to look a whole lot better too!

SKIN TIP 101 "I HOPE YOU'RE NOT STILL DRYING IT OUT!"

Your Skin that is! Unknowingly, you may be making it even Drier -The Weather  is still Cold most of the time - You're using products that have Alcohol in them - Really? Please! No Alcohol on your Skin & don't be Drinking so much of it - Not too good either, OK? You're also using Hot Water to Cleanse? Ooooh, You're a Recipe for Disaster! You're going to be Drier & looking even Older - I'm just NOT going there, are you?!

SKIN TIP 101 "IF YOU WANT TO LOOK YOUNGER, YOU DON'T HAVE TO KNOW EVERYTHING!"

You just have to DO everything that's really works to slow the Aging Process down! I've talked about Telomeres - Did you know there're located at the end of each... DNA strand in your Skin's Cells? You were probably taught that when a Cell divides, a New Cell appears - When it comes to Telomeres in your Skin, this isn't True - they get Shorter every time your Skin Cells divide & your Skin Looks Older! You don't have to be a Scientist - Just ask for a Product that Slows that Process - Can't find one? DM me!

SKIN TIP 101 "HAVE YOU RESOLVED TO CLEANSE YOUR FACE EVERY NIGHT?"

 I'm still amazed at how many Women go to Bed with their Make-up on! Now listen - you're AGING your Skin 13 Days every time you do this! Make it easy to Cleanse by cleansing your Face right after Dinner before your Relax for the Evening OR keep that Facecloth & Cleanser to use right before you fall into Bed on your Nightstand - Don't forget the Night Creme too, OK ??? You ...can do it!

SKIN TIP 101 "ANOTHER GREAT INGREDIENT IS VITAMIN C!"

It's just true that as we "get younger" our Body slows production of Collagen & Elastin, which keeps Skin Toned & Strong. Studies show that Antioxidants found in Vitamin C stimulate the production of Collagen - It also minimizes fine Lines & Wrinkles. This is one ingredient that works when eaten, BUT you could never eat enough Oranges or Lemons to get enough of it - So, add some Vitamin C powder to that Water you should be Drinking - Bottoms up, OK?

SKIN TIP 101 "ANOTHER GREAT SKIN CARE INGREDIENT IS VITAMIN A

Vitamin A is a powerful & proven Anti-Aging Antioxidant. It's available in many Creams, or by Prescription to promote Collagen production & plump your Skin! It also works on reducing Fine Lines & Wrinkles. Add that it improves Skin Tone while reducing Hyperpigmentation .... & you'll say what I say: "Give me some Vitamin A - right now!"

SKIN TIP 101 " OK YOU GUYS - I MEAN MEN..... YOU REALLY HAVE TO MOISTURIZE!"

I'm not talking about some Sweet smelling Girly scented lotion! You may not tell anyone, but I know you want good looking Healthy Skin! You’re just not going to have it if you don’t Moisturize daily. Do you want to be more Fine Lines & Wrinkles due to dehydration? NO you don't! There are many No Fragrance Moisturizers made just for Men..... I just happen to know of the best one!

(& Girls - you're probably the one to Motivate your Guy to do this!)

SKIN TIP 101 "CAFFEINE IS NOT JUST FOR YOUR COFFEE!"

Does this surprise you? Did you know that some studies show that Caffeine may ward off Skin Cancers? Because of that, they have been added to many Skin Care products. You probably need to cut down on the amount of Caffeine you're putting into the Inside of your Body, & concentrate on putting more of it onto the Outside of your Body into your Skin!

SKIN TIP 101 " IT'S OK TO USE A CONCEALER - IN FACT, YOU SHOULD!"


 Are you working on getting rid of Dark Circles under your Eyes but want a more Immediate solution? Maybe you have a slight Redness in your Skin or even Rosacea? Then use a Concealer! It's one of the best Anti -Aging products you can buy until you get your Skin's Natural issues under Control - Put a Streak of it under each Eye & on any Red areas & blend with a small flat Sponge. It's OK -whatever you need to do to look Younger & Beautiful - Right?
