Yes and no! 👀

The skin around our eyes is thin and more sensitive, often showing signs of aging first.

But it doesn’t necessarily mean that it requires different products from the rest of your skin.

Moisturizing creams that are gentle and fragrance-free can be used generously on the skin around your eyes as well.

Overall, it’s important to first figure out your skin type and what your skin actually needs so you can apply the correct products.

Message me to book your consultation where we can go over all your questions and skin needs.

Overwhelmed by the number of skincare products available on the market? 😳

Unfortunately, skincare is NOT a one-fits-all model.

In order for products to be effective and your skin to benefit from them, they have to be compatible with your specific skin type and needs.

Today, we are busting some popular skincare myths and starting the conversation with what actually works and what is just “craaazy talk”.

I could probably write a book on this topic but I will limit myself to the first 3 that came to mind and are also the most problematic.

❌ Base tanning before summer helps prevent sunburn.

This is a major, huge, no! You are just exposing your skin to more UV rays and increasing your risk of sun damage.

❌ Natural or “clean” skincare ingredients are best.

Clean is a misleading term when it comes to skincare. Plus, it exaggerates what “chemicals” actually are, most of which are useful for your skin. Water is a chemical after all! 💦 So are plants! 😅

❌ A tight tingling sensation after applying skincare means the products are working.

The only time this can be true is when you are introducing products with glycolic acid, vitamin C, retinol, etc. If the tingle is more like a burn, or if it leads to itching and redness you want to stop using it right away.

It’s important to prioritize the things that matter to you 💁‍♀️

When skincare becomes a routine that you follow no matter what the circumstances are, this is when you can start to notice results that will last a lifetime.

PLUS, who doesn’t like the confidence boost after a proper spa day?

Let’s talk moisturizing!🧴

Moisturizing your skin is one of the MOST important things you can do for it.

Moisturizer is the superstar of your skincare and it can help….

✅Reduce the appearance of blemishes
✅ Keep the skin from being too dry or too oily which can cause further issues like acne
✅ Reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles

Of course, choosing the moisturizer that fits your skin is important since different skin types will respond better to different compositions and ingredients.

If you want to learn more about your skin’s specific needs, you can book a skin consultation with me to go through all your concerns and figure out the perfect game plan for you!
