Get a Sleeker Silhouette with our Body Tight Firming Kit

Spring is the time to throw off the old and bring out the new.  It is also time to go into full blown panic when you realize that shorts and bathing suit weather is just around the corner and you are not quite ready. Thank goodness there are tools to help undo the winter lumps, bumps, and dimples your backside developed while you were piling on the layers of clothes.  

Skin-peel.com has the Body Tight Firming kit that, well….firms and tightens. It won’t shave 20 lbs off your profile, but it will help smooth out the ripples and slim down the love handles while you frantically go to the gym 7 days. The kit contains two products that work together for a double shot of help.

The Body Tight Firming Serum has your collagen stimulating, skin refining alpha hydroxy acids that not only allow the actives in the Body Tight Firming Lotion to absorb better but also gives your skin a brightening boost.  Dry, dull, itchy skin is just a part of the winter blahs.  Body Tight Firming Serum will help sweep away the unneeded cells while it firms and tightens.  BONUS!

Your second product, Body Tight Firming Lotion, has the fat fighting ingredients that will shrink down existing fat cells and prevent new ones from forming. Again, it won’t keep you from eating that yummy chocolate cake right before bedtime but it will help you as you strive to improve your eating habits and expand your exercise routine.  Special botanical extracts are able to target adipose cells and dehydrate them.  Its kind of like squeezing the juice out of them.  Fat cells reproduce by getting so fat that they replicate themselves. So, when you shrink the existing ones and prevent them from multiplying you are preventing new ones from forming. BINGO!

So, now you are tightening and firming the skin with the serum and shrinking and stopping the fat with the lotion.  You are making the effort to ramp up how much you move your body (aka exercise) and eating light and healthy (while dearly missing the chocolate cake). VIOLA!  Next thing you know, you will be looking for excuses to be in your bikini, but the clock is ticking.  RUN and get your Body Tight Firming kit because summer is sneaking up on you.

Daily Sunscreen Use Proven to Reduce Signs of Premature Aging in Skin

A new study has determined that applying sunscreen every day can slow signs of aging, as well as dramatically reduce the risk of deadly skin cancer. The study has also shown that its never too late to begin the daily sunscreen routine to significantly lessen the signs of photoaging such as sun spots, wrinkles, and sagging skin.

"We now know that protecting yourself from skin cancer by using sunscreen has the added bonus of keeping you looking young." Dr. Adele Green, a professor at the Queensland Institute of Medical Research at the University of Queensland in Australia, told USA Today. "It has been a source of frustration for us that for some sections of the community, the sun-safe message does not seem to be getting through."

The study also tested whether or not the antioxidant beta-carotene also provide anti-aging benefits. This carotenoid has been shown to lower the risk of skin cancer. For the randomized-controlled trial, the researchers assigned 903 participants to one of four groups: Those who used broad-spectrum sunscreens daily and take 30 milligrams of beta-carotene, those who used daily sunscreen and took a placebo, those who took the beta-carotene but only used sunscreen periodically, and those who used sunscreen periodically and took a placebo. Everyone participating in the study were age 55 and under.

The two daily sunscreen groups used UVA/UVB blocking products with a SPF (sun protection factor) of 15 or higher; they applied the product to their head, neck, arms, and hands each morning after bathing, and reapplied it every few hours. The other two groups applied sunscreen where and when they thought they needed it. The study groups were tracked for four and a half years, and used putty-like skin molds to document fine lines and wrinkles. They found that the groups using sunscreen every day showed 24 percent less skin photoaging than those who only applied it periodically. The results were the same regardless of age, so even the middle-aged participants benefited from regular sunscreen use. Results from the testing showed that the Beta Carotene had no benefit at all against the photo aging.  

In 2012, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration began allowing sunscreen manufacturers to claim that their products reduced the risk of skin cancer and skin aging if used as directed, as long they also advised people to take other precautions, like reapplying sunscreen at least every two hours (more often if you're sweating or swimming), avoiding sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., and wearing long-sleeved shirts, pants, and broad-brimmed hats to shield the skin when possible. We now know that daily application of sunscreen provides both cancer prevention and age prevention, which is worth the few seconds it takes to apply it every morning.

Why you should wash your face twice a day?

Why its so important to wash your face both in the morning and at night. In hopes of helping people improve their skin and in turn their health we wanted to share why we feel its essential to wash your face both in the morning and at night.

Lately we have seen several questions asking why its so important to wash your face both in the morning and at night. In hopes of helping people improve their skin and in turn their health we wanted to share why we feel its essential to wash your face both in the morning and at night.

WHY WASH IN THE MORNING

When you are sleeping your skin repairs and sheds dead skin cells.  As your skin regenerates free radicals are created.  When you wake up and before you use toners, serums, moisturizers and apply make up you want to wash off all that dead skin. Washing your face in the morning will help you start the day off with the healthiest skin possible.

WHY WASH AT NIGHT:

Washing your face at night is important for several reasons. First, if you wear makeup its imperative you wash it off and water alone won't do the trick. Leaving makeup on over night will result in clogged pores which leads to the dreaded ACNE. And, if you don't want your face to age quickly you don't want to leave your makeup on over night.  Keeping eye makeup on while you sleep can even lead to eye infections and conjunctivitis. The second reason to wash your face at night, you want a fresh canvas for your nighttime moisturizer.

If you are looking for great cleanser we suggest using a Green Tea cleanser which is gentle and does a great job at keeping your skin fresh and clean. You should use an exfoliator at least one day a week to get off that dry stubborn skin keeping your face fresh.

Treating brown spots on your skin

Unfortunately spot treating brown spots is not an effective strategy. The reason is because the visible spots that you see on the surface of the skin are just that, on the surface. The damage actually extends far below the visible layer of your skin and needs to be treated as well. This sub-surface damage cannot be effectively treated by a spot solution.
In order to treat skin discoloration, dark spots, sun damage, you will have to follow a regimen.
One of the most recommended peels to treat this issue is the AHA Kojic Peel.
The AHA Kojic Peel is a combination of acids, Glycolic, Lactic and Pyruvic also with natural ingredients that will inhibit skin discoloration and melanin production, such as pure extract of Bearberry and Licorrice. The strong combination of skin lightening ingredients provides a clear and even toned complexion without the irritation. This powerful, yet mild chemical peel lightens, brightens and tightens all in one simple step. In addition to its revitalizing powers, Kojic Acid also has anti-microbial properties.
The AHA Kojic Peel inhibits melanin production (tyrosinase activity) while simultaneously reducing existing pigmentation disorders such as melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
For facial applications, we recommend the AHA Kojic Peel application every 2 to 3 weeks. Even without a visible peeling and minimal downtime, your face will need that time to heal.
Follow a daily routine using our Arbutin Brightening Duo Kit, using the serum and moisturizer 2 times a day.
It takes about 6-8 treatments to see final results.

What is a Jessner’s Peel and what to expect?

What is a Jessner’s peel treatment?

A Jessner’s peel is a medium-depth peel that is designed to improve more extensive skin damage than an alpha-hydroxyl-acid peel can provide. It is made of salicylic acid, for penetration, lactic acid for exfoliation and resorcinol (which is great for the treatment of acne).

How does a Jessner’s peel treatment benefit me?

• Reduces the appearance of acne scars
• Reduces hyperpigmentation
• Smoothes fine lines and wrinkles
• Improves overall complexion
• Helps loosen stubborn acne
• Restores a youthful glow
• Customized treatment for more extensive skin damage

How does the Jessner’s peel treatment work for me?

The combination of the substances used to formulate a Jessner’s peel, make this such a powerful and effective skin therapy. The components are put together because they exfoliate the outer layers of your skin, which promotes the natural peeling of those top layer(s) a few days after the treatment. Once peeling has subsided, you are left with visibly clear, smooth, vibrant skin. This is why a Jessner’s treatment is especially suited for anyone who has sun damage or mild to severe acne.

What can I expect during the treatment?

Your skin is cleansed with a glycolic cleanser to remove dirt, oil and the outermost layer skin, which allows proper penetration of the Jessner’s mix. Then, the solution is applied. It will burn slightly; however, we relieve this sensation with a fan blowing cool air on your treated area. Depending on the severity of the area being treated, several layers of solution may be applied. During the process a white “frost” will develop on your skin but will dissipate in a few hours. The peel is neutralized and removed with cold water. Finally a calming mask is applied.
You will peel for about seven days afterwards, and your skin will turn from pink to brown. Once the process is complete, nice new skin is revealed. If needed, this peel can be repeated again in four week intervals, until your desired results are accomplished. Usually only one treatment is necessary.

Am I a candidate for the Jessner’s treatment?

The Jessner’s peel is excellent for men and women if you are concerned about lines, uneven skin tone and acne. Jessner’s solution is not, however, recommended for darker skin types.

Can I expect downtime after a Jessner’s treatment?

You can expect about seven days of peeling.

How Kojic Acid Works

Kojic Acid Mechanism

Kojic acid is commonly used as a skin whitening agent, due to its ability to prevent the formation of melanin, which is the primary skin pigment. This is thought to be a result of kojic acid's ability to bind copper. Copper is needed for an enzyme, known as tyrosinase, to work. Tyrosinase is a protein that breaks down tyrosine, an amino acid. The products of this breakdown stimulate melanocytes, small cells that that produce melanin, which causes pigmentation of the skin. As a result, application of kojic acid can effectively treat hyperpigmentation; its effects have been documented in a 1999 study performed by Dr. Kim in Singapore, and published in the Journal of Dermatological Surgery.
