Sunscreen - something we’re always told we need to use over and over again. But why? What's the hype really about? First and foremost, it prevents skin cancer!! Melanoma is the most common form of cancer in the United States with the statistic of 1 in every 5 Americans will develop skin cancer in their lifetime, according to the American Academy of Dermatology....

Aging - a scary word for almost everyone. But it doesn’t have to be. By educating yourself about what actually happens to our faces as we age, we can treat accordingly or not… whatever makes you feel your best! Let’s first start with volume. It is said in recent literature that we lose 1 teaspoon of volume per decade of life - although that number ranges for everyone....

This topic is one that is often too taboo to discuss because many people like to get filler done and don’t want anyone knowing about it. But helloooo, it’s 2020 people! We must keep up with the times. And if you think about it, everyone’s already doing it - whether you notice it or not. While most fillers are made with hyaluronic acid (HA), it’s important to note that there are other more permanent fillers such as Radiesse (made with Calcium hydroxylapatite), Sculptra, and fat injections (which are a surgical option).

PERIORAL DERMATITIS 👄
(Inflammation of the skin around the mouth)

While this VERY common skin condition does not always present around the mouth, it is most commonly noticed around the mouth, nose, and eyelids 😟

With all this added mask usage, there have been more cases than ever so it’s important to see a dermatologist for correct diagnosis so that you treat it properly.

Questions about perioral dermatitis? Drop them below and I’ll do my best to answer them👇🏼

I’ve been super excited to write about this treatment mostly because of how underrated it is. As you all know, I have acne prone skin and I can honestly say that subsequent chemical peels spread about a month apart have really helped control my breakouts. Let's start with the basics, shall we? A chemical peel is a medical grade facial - meaning only a medical provider can administer it - that effectively exfoliates various layers of the skin depending on the depth. [ 316 more words ]

via Glossier The struggle is truly real when traveling. You try to bring all your products, but are scared how they’ll travel in transit. And don’t get me started on the hassle of figuring out how to bring your skincare essentials on board with you that can be downsized to 3 ounces. Whether you’re sitting first class or economy, as soon as you reach 30,000 feet your skin massively loses its hydration. [ 558 more words ]

Botox. What is it? How do I know if I’m ready for it? How young is too young? Finally all your questions… answered. First off, Botox is the branded name for the pharmaceutical drug Botulinum toxin which is a neuromodulator also known as a neurotoxin. Jillian - speak in normal words please. Okay okay let me break it down! Basically a neuromodulator blocks a receptor for a muscle to fire which slows down the activity of the muscle. [ 540 more words ]

Although I grew up in the mix between Millennial and Gen Z, I couldn't help but notice the dramatic difference in self care that has evolved over the last century. Being that I was fortunate enough to have my great-grandparents around until last year, I was able to take note of the differences in the ways I look at self care compared to my great-grandmother.

Although my skin may seem under control now, that was not always the case. Like many adolescents, my acne started just as I approached 14 years old. Oh what fun hormones are, right? Then became the tumultuous back and forth visits to the dermatologist. I would walk in, they would prescribe yet another topical cream and I would be on my way. [ 478 more words ]

For the longest time I heard about the power of retinol but it wasn’t until I worked in a dermatology office that I realized I should integrate it into my routine.

Not only is retinol anti-aging (hell yeah!) but it has kept my break outs at bay 🙌🏼. As someone who has acne prone skin, I swear by my retinol! Just make sure if you want to start using a retinol to put on a healthy amount of SPF ☀️
