Sebaceous Filaments are essentially a mix of sebum (oil) & dead skin cells, serving to transport oil along hair follicles. Found primarily on the nose, forehead, & chin they often appear grey or tan in color, which distinguishes them from blackheads. Excessive oil production, Improper skincare routines, & a lack of exfoliation can transform sebaceous filaments into pesky blackheads. A consistent skincare routine tailored to your skin type is key to healthier, clearer skin. Begin your journey to healthy skin today! www.theskingymav.com

Retinol is available as both a Prescription product (Retin-A, Tretinoin) and Over-the-Counter (OTC) in milder forms. Both contain retinoids, which are derivatives of vitamin A. However, they differ in several ways:

▪️ POTENCY: prescription retinols such as Tretinoin, Tazarotene, Adapalene, are often more potent & concentrated. They can produce more significant & faster results BUT may lead to increased skin sensitivity & potential side effects.

▪️ EFFECTIVENESS: prescription retinoids are generally more effective in treating specific skin concerns. OTC retinol is milder & better suited for general skin maintenance & mild to moderate concerns.

▪️ SIDE EFFECTS: prescription retinoids are more likely to cause side effects like redness, peeling, & dryness, especially during the initial adjustment period. OTC are milder & may cause fewer side effects.

The primary differences between prescription & OTC are in their potency, availability, cost, side effects, & suitability for specific skin concerns. The choice between the two depends on your skin's needs. Always remember to use your sunscreen as retinoids can cause photosensitivity.

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL LEGGING DAY!!

The brand established the day in 2019 to praise a year-round, versatile piece of clothing. Leggings became an integral part of women's clothing in the 1970s, notably due to the popularity of aerobics and the increasing use of synthetic fiber Lycra.

HOWEVER, did you know that wearing leggings for extended periods can sometimes lead to a skin condition called Folliculitis?

Folliculitis is an inflammation of hair follicles caused by bacterial, fungal, or viral infections. Resulting in red, itchy, pimple like bumps on the skins surface. While it can occur on any part of the body, leggings can create a favorable environment for it's development ESPECIALLY in areas prone to friction & sweat.

THE LEGGING-FOLLICULITIS CONNECTION:

1. SWEAT & HEAT:
Leggings are often made of synthetic materials that don't allow your skin to breathe, trapping sweat & heat against the skin, encouraging the growth of bacteria. Leggings made of cotton or other natural materials allow better airflow & can reduce the risk of folliculitis.

2. FRICTION: The snug fit of leggings can create friction against your skin, especially in areas where the fabric rubs. This friction can irritate hair follicles & provide an entry point for bacteria.

3. POOR HYGIENE: Neglecting to change out sweaty leggings, ESPECIALLY after exercising, can contribute to the buildup of bacteria. Avoid sitting in damp leggings for extended periods of time.

4. PRACTICE GOOD HYGIENE: Keep the skin under your leggings clean & dry. Exfoliate regularly to prevent dead skin cells from clogging hair follicles.

While leggings are comfortable & stylish, it's essential to be aware of their potential to cause folliculitis if not worn properly. Now you can reduce the risk of this skin condition & enjoy the benefits of leggings without the worry.
