Healthy Skin

Eating our fruits and vegetables is an important way of increasing our vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants intake for overall health but did you know that sometimes the fastest way to boost skin health and immunity is through topically applied formulations?

Just like we wouldn’t eat everything in the fruit bowl all in one meal, the same goes for the skin. Some topical vitamins need to be applied at different times of the day or evening to be more effective while others need to be introduced to the skin so the skin is more accepting of its stronger effects such as vitamin A.

When using skincare products, it’s important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions or your skin care professional’s advice.

Furthermore, skincare products are designed to work best on skin with a balanced pH. A vitamin C serum can help in brightening the skin, delivering antioxidant protection to help fight free radical damage and improve fine lines but, depending on the type of vitamin C being used, it may also stimulate sebaceous activity, resulting in more breakouts or further irritation to already sensitized skin.

Knowing what vitamins to apply topically and when can be a hit-and-miss experience which is why we always recommend speaking with a professional. We find that most of the people we talk to either use too many topical serums and their skin becomes confused, or they just aren’t using them correctly. Most people need to do less than what they think.

We offer an additional 30 minutes for free with every first-time Signature Facial. During this time, we listen to your concerns and learn about your current skincare routine. We then provide helpful tips to enhance your home skincare routine and achieve the desired results. This information also allows us to fully customize your facial with us.
