As a licensed aesthetician, registered nurse and professional body builder, I’m often asked how I get my skin to have a natural glow and look great without makeup. Night time skin care is the answer. My favorite at home tool is my Clarisonic™ cleansing brush. Its rotating bristles remove all the dirt and oils as well as dead skin cells. Skincueticals® LHA Cleanser is my go to product to use with my Clarisonic. Designed for aging skin prone to breakouts, LHA cleansing gel combines potent cleansing agents with LHA, (Lipohydroxy acid which decreases bacteria found within the pores), glycolic acid and salicylic acid to decongest pores, smooth irregularities and brighten skin. I recommend a skin consultation to find the right products for your skin type.
After your skin is cleaned properly it is time to apply a retinol. It is best to apply retinol on clean, bare skin. Retinol is a form of retinoid, a derivative of vitamin A. It’s commonly used to give your skin a healthy boost by minimizing fine lines and wrinkles, smoothing texture, and diminishing hyperpigmentation and dark spots.
Finally, a moisturizer, depending on the season and your skin type. I prefer a heavier cream in the winter when I am drier such as LaRoche-Posay™ Substiane and Neocutis™. BioGel hydrating gel in the summer months.
You too can achieve lighter, brighter skin. Call today to schedule a free consultation with me and together we can develop the right treatment plan for you. 248-524- 3622.
