❄️ Winter is here which means it’s time for our skin to adjust.

In the winter, the weather outside is colder and the air is drier, which can have an effect on our skin. For some people, their skin becomes dry, cracked, and irritated. It can also be more difficult to keep our skin hydrated and moisturized, which is why it’s important to keep hydrated.

Follow these tips to keep your skin at its best this winter:

🧴 Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Apply a rich, creamy moisturizer to your face and body immediately after showering or bathing. Look for products that contain hyaluronic acid or glycerin, which help to draw moisture into the skin.

💧 Add extra hydrating products into your routine. Hyaluronic acid is great for drawing water into the skin. Top tip: apply to damp skin for that extra hydration hit!

☀️ It may not be sunny outside but your SPF is still required! UVB rays which cause sunburn are stronger in the summer but can also cause damage during the colder months, especially on reflective surfaces such as snow and ice.

🚿 Taking hot showers can strip your skin of its natural oils, so although tempting when it’s icy cold outside, try to avoid long steamy hot showers.

🧽 Swapping harsh cleansers for more hydrating options is a good idea in winter. Make sure your skin gets that extra hydration and avoid stripping the skin.

🪨 Although exfoliating is still important in winter, avoid over-exfoliation. This can quickly dry your skin causing irritation.

Some other tips to consider… 👇

🫶 Use a humidifier. Indoor heating can cause the air to become very dry, which can further dry out your skin. Combat this by using a humidifier in your home or office.

🧣 Protect your skin from the cold. When you’re going outside, make sure to cover up exposed skin. Wear a scarf, gloves, and a hat to keep your skin protected from the cold, wind, and snow.

🚰 Drink plenty of water. It’s important to stay hydrated from the inside out. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin looking its best.

🥦 Eat healthily. A healthy diet can make all the difference!

The holidays are a time for cozy nights in and festive feasts, but all that indoor living can wreak havoc on our skin. Dry air, cooking steam, and even holiday stress can leave us feeling dull and irritated.

But worry not, these simple home hacks will help you create a haven for happy, healthy skin this holiday season:

🪟 Let Fresh Air Flow - Ditch the steamy kitchen! When whipping up those Christmas feasts, open the windows. Fresh air whisks away cooking heat and helps prevent that dreaded sweaty-under-makeup feeling. Plus, it boosts oxygen levels, leaving your skin feeling invigorated and radiant.

💧 Embrace the Mist - Winter air is notoriously dry, zapping moisture from our skin and leaving it feeling tight and flaky. Invest in a humidifier! This winter essential gently increases indoor humidity, mimicking that dewy summer air and keeping your skin plump and happy. Think of it as a spa day for your complexion, right in your living room.

🌬️ Breathe Clean - We spend a lot of time indoors during the holidays, so purifying your air is key. This means keeping air purifiers running, regularly washing bedding and fabrics, and even opening windows on milder days to let fresh air circulate. Removing dust, allergens, and irritants from your environment can significantly improve your skin's health, reducing breakouts and irritation.

💡 TOP TIP - Add a touch of greenery! Indoor plants act as natural air purifiers, filtering out toxins and adding a touch of zen to your space. Plus, studies show that being around plants 🪴 can reduce stress, another major skin-health booster.

These are only some of the ways The Grinch will steal your holiday glow if you let him…

😴 Sleep thief - You stayed up all night wrapping or scrolling through endless gift ideas? Hello, under-eye bags and dullness! Sleep deprivation wrecks your skin's repair cycle, leaving you looking and feeling less than holly jolly.

😫 Stress monster - Holiday chaos got you feeling tense? Cortisol, the stress hormone, can trigger breakouts and inflammation. Take a deep breath, delegate some tasks, and prioritize your sanity (and skin)! Try out our I Am Centered for Daily Stress Support

💦 Cleanse Grinch - Skipped your nighttime routine after a late-night party? Big mistake! Makeup residue and environmental toxins clog pores, leading to blemishes and irritation. Don't let the Grinch steal your cleansing ritual!

🍪 Sugar cookie saboteur - Tempting treats are everywhere, but sugar spikes can wreak havoc on your complexion. Indulge mindfully, and don't let the cookie monster hijack your skincare goals.

🥂 Happy hour humbug - Holiday cheer often flows with the eggnog, but alcohol dehydrates your skin and worsens redness. Stay hydrated, limit your drinks, and remember, a rosy glow comes from within, not the bottom of your glass.

❄️ Frosty foe - Spending hours in the cold, dry air? Winter weather zaps your skin's moisture, leaving it feeling rough and tight. Layer up with sunscreen and moisturizer to keep your Grinch defenses strong!

💡 Remember, you're the hero of your own holiday story! Don't let the Grinch steal your glow. Fight back with self-care, smart choices, and a healthy dose of holiday spirit. Your radiant skin will thank you!

This time of year can be harsh on our skin, so using the right products with the right ingredients is essential.

There are a lot of moisturizers on the market targeted for dry skin, but you’d be surprised to learn how many of them lack the moisture-boosting ingredients needed to give your skin that extra hit of hydration.

These are the skincare ingredients you really need to be on the lookout for when it comes to your moisturizer, and here’s why…

💧Hyaluronic Acid - A powerful humectant that can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water, making it excellent for hydration.
💧 Glycerin - Another humectant that draws moisture into the skin.
💧 Ceramides - Lipids that help strengthen the skin’s barrier and retain moisture.
💧 Squalane - A lightweight oil that mimics the skin’s natural oils, providing hydration without feeling heavy.
💧 Unrefined Shea Butter - A rich emollient that nourishes and moisturizes the skin deeply. (unrefined is considered acne safe)
💧 Niacinamide - Strengthens the skin's barrier function and reduces water loss.

Double cleansing is a skincare technique that involves using two different cleansers in sequence to thoroughly clean the skin. Here are the top three reasons why double cleansing can be beneficial for the skin:

Effective Makeup and Impurity Removal:
The first step of double cleansing typically involves using an oil-based cleanser or micellar water, which effectively breaks down and removes makeup, sunscreen, excess sebum, and other oil-based impurities from the skin. This initial cleansing helps to ensure that all the surface-level impurities are thoroughly removed before moving on to the second cleansing step.

Deep Pore Cleansing:
The second step of double cleansing usually involves using a water-based cleanser to clean water-based impurities such as sweat, dirt, and other residue. This step is essential for deep pore cleansing and removing impurities that the first step may have missed. By thoroughly cleansing the pores, it can help prevent the formation of blackheads, whiteheads, and other skin issues related to clogged pores.

Enhanced Skincare Absorption:
Double cleansing prepares the skin for subsequent skincare products, ensuring better absorption of serums, moisturizers, and other treatments. A clean canvas allows the active ingredients in your skincare products to pe*****te the skin more effectively, maximizing their benefits and promoting healthier, clearer skin over time.

Double cleansing is an effective method for thoroughly cleansing the skin, removing makeup and impurities, deeply cleaning pores, and enhancing the absorption of skincare products for improved overall skin health.

What is Hyaluronic Acid?

1. Hyaluronic acid recruits moisture to the skin
2. holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water
3. keeps our skin hydrated and plump
4. helps skin stretch and flex & reduces skin wrinkles & lines

Application of Hyaluronic acid depends on how and what it is mixed with or if it is a straight serum.

We have both so we can cover your needs :)

If you are using this as a stand alone serum (not already in the ingredient deck or your product), make sure you leave your skin slightly damp with water when you apply it.

If you want to add this in to your regimen and not sure where to add it in?? Ask me and I will be more than happy to assist you!

Oxygen is essential for all life.
·
It is important to differentiate between the activities of oxygen entering the body through respiration versus the benefit of a topical application.
·
Although the use of oxygen has been touted in various types of treatments, Dr. Peter T. Pugliese developed the first professional procedure to effectively generate oxygen on the skin with this signature delivery system.
·
Circadia’s Oxygen Rx is the key professional treatment for improving a variety of skin conditions.
Relaxation
�This exclusive treatment is a delightful sensory experience, appropriate for all skin types.
·�Acne ⭐️�Topical oxygen reduces redness and soothes inflamed skin after just one treatment, leaving the skin smoother and more comfortable , with enhanced clarity and tone. It also addresses the bacterial component of acne and gently facilitates the removal of comedones�(blackheads).
·�Rosacea ⭐️�Oxygen has been found to be very effective in controlling bacteria associated with demodex follicularum, the common skin mite, often present in individuals suffering from rosacea. This is helpful in controlling the susceptibility to infection and further redness.
·�Telangiectasia ⭐️�One Oxygen Rx treatment can significantly minimize the look of large, broken capillaries and provide a soothing and relaxing experience for the client.
·
Anti-aging ⭐️�Solid state topical oxygen gently stimulates cellular response to help diminish the visible signs of aging. Skin appears firmer and more radiant after just one use, leaving the skin luminous with a feeling of firmness. Visible improvement continues with subsequent treatments combined with the appropriate home care regimen.

Warm Weather Skin Tips

The weather isn't the only thing that changes with summer~so does our skin. Here are some of our favorite summer skincare tips.

☀️ CLEANSE REGULARLY

With warmer weather the sebaceous glands start producing excess sebum. This can stick to the surface of the skin causing clogged pores and acne.

☀️ HYDRATE SKIN

Hot weather can cause irritated, red, dehydrated skin. Combat dehydration with a water-based gel such as Hydrabalance or an ultra-hydrating mask like HydraCalm.

☀️ WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING

Tight fitting garments can cause friction against the skin. Friction combined with sweat can result in conditions like fungal folliculitis and worsened acne.

☀️ USE SUNSCREEN

Need we say more? Make sure clients are using
an SPF suited for their skin type and are reapplying throughout the day.

We recommend a zinc-based
SPF to provide oil control during warmer months.
