Summer Reminder to Wear your Sunscreen

One of my clients proudly told me she finally started wearing sunscreen everyday.

I asked her what motivated her.

She said she finally found a product that felt good on her skin.

Do you wear sunscreen everyday?

And, if you do, what brand do you prefer?

And if you don’t, why don’t you?

Wearing sunscreen is the best way to prevent aging, sunspots and skin cancer.

So, this is your friendly reminder to wear your sunscreen everyday.

Especially, in Boulder where we are.

A mile closer to the sun!!!!

How to Keep your Skin Routine Simple and Effective

Do you wash and moisturize your face every morning and night?

In the morning!

Cleanse: This is essential to keeping skin looking radiant and healthy. Cleansing the skin in the morning helps to wake you up and freshen your skin. Cleansing helps maintain proper pore size. This is because you are removing the oil and the pores are not getting as clogged.

Exfoliate: This can be as simple as using a wash cloth when you cleanse. This will remove the very top skin cells. Leave the deeper exfoliating for your facial treatments.

Serum: I always recommend a vitamin C serum in the morning for all skin types to prevent sun damage and increase collagen and elastin production.

Hydrate: Use the right moisturizer for your skin type. If you are unsure of what that is, ask your esthetician.

Protect: Use a sunscreen every morning even if you live where it is cloudy all day.

At night!

Cleanse: Cleansing your skin in the p.m. helps remove dirt, oil, sunscreen and makeup.

Treatment Product: This can be a retinol based product or a peptide serum. The retinol feeds the skin cells vitamin A which helps with anti-aging. Some peptides help anti-aging while others help with hydration.

Moisturizer: Use the appropriate moisturizer for your skin type.
