Christmas Party Season is Coming – Is Your Face up to it?

Spring is quickly coming to an end and before we know it summer will be here and Christmas events and parties will be written in your dairy. Now is the time to take a look at your skin and prepare it for the party season, with some of the quick fix Dermalogica Products.

One of the things you might notice are signs of skin dehydration, this usually presents itself as fine lines across the surface of your skin, especially when you lightly press the skin together with your fingers.

Dehydration is not good because it can make your skin appear older and can lead to sensitivity. Even though you can be extremely good at drinking your quota of water it is not necessarily going to magically hydrate your skin as your internal organs and circulation, digestion and every other organ will get in first.

To ensure that any additional hydrators that you apply to your skin are able to penetrate to their full potential you need to ensure that the skin is exfoliated first. Exfoliation is extremely important and gives lots of benefits besides letting the hydrators do their job.

There are different types of exfoliators too and it is very important that the correct ones are used for “your” skin condition. Exfoliation removes clogging surface debris allowing for optimal absorption of treatment ingredients, polishes the skin to create a smooth surface, sloughs off dead skin cells, speeds up cell turnover, brightens the skin and improves suppleness to the skin.

Exfoliation is something you can do at home and Dermalogica have a great range for each skin condition. From breakout prone and aging skin to hyper-pigmentation and dry, dehydrated skin. Exfoliation is important to the health and appearance of all skin conditions.

The ideal amount of exfoliation is one day of intense exfoliation with seven days of gentle exfoliation. If you wish to exfoliate deeper or speed the process along I would suggest you make an appointment with a skin care professional for a skin treatment.

I personally love Dermalogica Daily Resurfacer which I use at night after cleansing and leave on under my moisturiser. Just applying in circular movements all over my face so that it can work during the night. Daily Resurfacer is a combination of chemical and physical exfoliants that resurfaces, smoothes and brightens to improve all over skin clarity.

In the morning I use the perfect partner for Daily Resurfacer which is Daily Microfoliant. Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant gently sloughs off all the debris that has been produced during the night from daily resurfacer. There are lots of combinations in the Dermalogica range and one that will be perfect for you too.

Well now that you are perfecting your exfoliation the next stage is adding a booster or serum to super saturate your skin with intense moisture.  I love and strongly recommend Dermalogica’s Skin Hydrating Booster, this little beauty instensly moisturises thirsty skin as it smoothes and minimises fine lines.

One of the ingredients in Dermalogica’s Skin Hydrating Booster is Hyaluronic acid which should become your best friend as it holds a thousand times its weight in moisture and improves elasticity. It is ideal for the eye and lip areas showing dryness line.

One of the best things about dermalogica skin hydrating booster is that it is not oily so your face does not feel like it is being smothered with a greasy film, therefore your makeup is still fine to apply. I can’t say enough praise for this product as it restores the skin’s critical moisture levels, revitalises parched skin, minimises fine lines and is nutrient rich.

Just five or six drops of this product for your face and neck applied onto clean skin under your moisturiser will give you the results you need.

Well now you have exfoliated and targeted dehydration your skin should be well on the way to party mode – but I still have some more tips to get that beautiful skin glow!

Is Your Skin Feeling and Looking as Dry as a Desert?

Is Your Skin Feeling and Looking as Dry as a Desert?
Skin Hydrating Booster

If Your Skin's Feeling Dehydrated You'll LOVE Dermalogica's Skin Hydrating Booster

 Thankfully dermalogica have a wonderful serum called Skin Hydrating Booster that will turn your parched skin around and restore hydration levels to the max – thanks Dermalogica! 

I have personally witnessed my skin being battered by general anaesthetic, long international flights and dry hot conditions that have caused my skin at times to resemble a dried apricot! (in fact just the other day, I did the ultimate “skincare sin” – while I was in emergency hospital with my grandson, I had to make the choice either wash off my panda eye make up with antiseptic hand wash, or look like a state with big, black, panda eyes while in the hospital – my grandson’s ok now btw, but my eyes are as dry as anything, so glad I have dermalogica skin hydrating booster, worked like a treat when I got home from the hospital) 

Anyway, my saviour is definitely including Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Booster into my skincare routine so I can restore life into my skin again. Dehydrated skin is undoubtedly one of the most common skin conditions that I see in the skin care centre and it is also a precursor to sensitized skin. 

Therefore it is not only important to keep the skin deeply hydrated because of fine lines and sensitivity but the skin cannot function properly if the critical moisture levels are not maintained. 

Studies have shown that as we age there is a decrease in hyaluronic levels found in the skin which contributes to the aging process. Dermalogica’s Skin Hydrating Booster is a super-saturated clear hydrating fluid that reinforces your skin’s barrier layer whilst replenishing hyaluronic acid to your skin’s tissues. 

What’s So Good About Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Booster?

 

Hyaluronic Acid is the most powerful agent for the skin holding up to one thousand times its weight in water; it also surrounds the collagen and elastin proteins to keep your skin elastic and malleable. 

Panthenol is another “goodie” also known as pro-vitamin B5 and this ingredient is not only excellent for repairing the skin but is also a superior humectants that helps rehydrate skin tissues. A combination of plant derived compounds form a moisture barrier over the skin’s surface whilst helping to restructure the barrier functions of the skin to minimise dehydration, smoothing skin and improving suppleness. 

80% of the population have dehydrated skin and on areas of the face that usually show first is around the eyes. Fine lines start to appear as moisture levels decrease giving the surface of the skin a crêpe look especially around the eyes. Dermalogica Skin hydrating Booster is particularly effective in this area and just a few drops applied to your skin in this area will greatly improve your hydration levels and then apply your dermalogica eye cream over the top. 

Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Booster is not greasy or oily and will super charge the hydration levels of even the driest skin conditions and great for oily skin conditions too. 

When you apply this miracle worker onto clean skin, squeeze a small dose (five to six drops) onto fingertips and massage gently over your face and throat and then follow with your favourite dermalogica moisturiser.

The Miraculous effect of Dermalogica’s Special Clearing Booster

Special Clearing Booster

Marvellous Special Clearing Booster - Heals Pimples Quickly

Dermalogica Special Clearing Booster Works Like Magic

Dermalogica Medibac Special Clearing Booster is great for healing breakouts quickly and is especially useful when you have an event or an important date (the sheer thought of the event can cause you to break out) and thankfully dermalogica’s special clearing booster is a potent acne killing product that will quickly eradicate any pimple. Dermalogica Special Clearing Booster has been a wonder product of mine for how quickly I have seen it heal my client’s breakouts. Developed with Benzoyl Peroxide a 5% potent strength, it’s capable of killing off the p.acnes that thrive in the follicles that cause the red bumps on your skin, by reducing the painful swelling and redness. If you have a particularly bad pimple apply a good amount of it, to only the affected breakout when you go to bed, by the time you wake up the Benzoyl Peroxide would have reduced the swelling – it’s Absolutely Marvellous!

Special Clearing Booster Acne Fighting Ingredients

Besides the bacteria killing Benzoyl Peroxide in this formula dermalogica have included their exclusive Alginated Zinc Triplex which is in many of their dermalogica medibac products. Alginated Zinc Triplex is a combination of hydrolysed algin and zinc sulphate. These have a good antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect on your skin. It also interferes with the action of the five alpha reductase enzyme process and this has been shown to reduce sebum by approximately 26 per cent – fascinating stuff!

Tea Tree Oil and Zinc Sulfate are also used in Special Clearing Booster both for there bacteria reducing abilities. Tea Tree Oil also is a great anti-inflammatory, and Zinc Sulfate helps to regulate sebum production in the follicle.

Most acne products can be irritating on the skin with Special Clearing Booster it is to be applied only to the affected breakout, but with everything dermalogica designs they always add calming ingredients to help reduce any irritation to the skin and that’s no different with this product with the added Chamomile Extract and Calendula both incredibly soothing ingredients that helps to calm the inflamed breakout and reduce the size of the pimple.

The whole formula is blended in an herbal base of Lavender, Calendula, German Chamomile, Linden and St.John’s Wort. These purifying plant extracts contain essential oils and phytochemicals that not only soothe and calm irritated skin, but also dissolve impaction plugs while moisturising dehydrated tissues.

A great on-the-spot treatment for those annoying pimples that quickly heal breakouts without over-drying and irritation. This is one of those products you cannot live without if you suffer with breakouts (not recommended for sensitive skin types or anyone allergic to Benzoyl Peroxide). The actual bottle will last two years once you have opened it, you only need a small amount and the bottle does last a really long time.
