Fact or Myth? Your Skin Can Speak To You…

without making a soundWithout making a sound, your skin says a lot about you.

Across all cultures, clear, radiant skin is viewed as a reflection of health and well-being. This perceived connection between appearance and health means that your skin is one of your best—or worst—marketing tools, sending a message to every person you meet.

When skin concerns go unaddressed, your skin can become an unreliable source, providing faulty information and mixed messages to the outside world.triage 1
For instance, if your complexion appears flushed or blotchy, it could lead people to mistakenly assume that you are drinking too much alcohol. If you have visible lip lines, people may believe you are a smoker. If you have frown lines etched between your eyebrows, you could give the impression of being angry or sad, when you’re actually feeling just the opposite.

Fortunately, uncrossing the signals is easier than you may think. It all boils down to understanding your unique skin concerns and responding accordingly. The biggest mistake most people make is not addressing the most significant issues first. We call this “triaging”—prioritizing issues in order to treat the most urgent problem first. For example, if you have sensitive skin but focus on treating lines and wrinkles first, you’ll never be happy with the results. And what’s more, focusing on aging before getting redness under control will only further inflame the sensitivity you already have.

Fact or Myth: Sunbathing is a good way to clear up acne.

barbie tanPeople believe that sun helps to clear up their acne because a tan masks the redness of a breakout and may in fact dry pimples up a bit faster.

However, over time, sun exposure causes breakouts rather than clears them. With every tan, cell turnover increases, building up more dead cells. As these dead cells pile up, pores become blocked, causing more breakouts.  And perhaps a higher risk of skin cancer, not to mention premature wrinkles and brown spots!

Fact or Myth? Combining Different Skincare Products Will GetYou Better Results…

Did you know … Applying skincare is like baking?

product wall 7.16.13What’s the difference between a pancake and a souffle? While the ingredient lists may be very similar (eggs, flour, milk) the way you combine them leads to very different outcomes.

The same is true in skincare; different products containing the same ingredients can lead to very different outcomes, depending on what you combine them with. Making up your own “recipe” by combining different skincare products can minimize results. You might unintentionally double-up on ingredients or layer products that cancel each other out.

Signs that products are not compatible include crumbling off your skin, a sticky, unsavory texture, and even redness, itching and flaking. To get consistent results, use products that are designed to work together to not only treat, but also to prevent your specific skin concerns.

Stick to the recipe to get picture-perfect results.
