Eye Creams: Eye creams are specifically made to pamper
delicate skin under and around
eyes. They help to plump and tighten under eye skin and they can reduce fine lines and wrinkles (like crows feet) that develop around
eyes. I recommend “Parfait Visage”
Moisturizers: Moisturizers help to hydrate skin and reduce
effects of aging over time.
Sunscreen: Sunscreen is
most important facial skin care product for
health and protection of your skin. The sun’s rays, even in small amounts can be very damaging to
skin on your face. Protect it with a natural sunscreen of at least an SPF 15 everyday.
Facial Cleansers: The fragile skin on your face needs a gentle cleanser that is designed for facial skin. Facial cleansers may come in liquid, foam, gel, towelette, or bar form.
AHAs: Alpah Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) work wonders at smoothing out
texture of skin and reducing
visibility of fine lines. These products work by sloughing off dead skin cells to unblock and cleanse pores, to improve oily skin or acne, and to improve skin condition in general. The extent of exfoliation that a facial skin care product is capable of depends on
type and concentration of
AHA, its pH (acidity), and other ingredients in
product.
Exfoliators: These facial skin care products utilize a variety of ingredients such as nuts, alpha hydroxy acids, and microcrystals to gently remove dead skin cells and reveal
healthy, radiant skin underneath. They are best used occasionally to restore luster to dull or dry skin.
Sunless Tanners: As their name implies, sunless tanners are used to tan
skin without exposure to
sun. These products vary greatly in quality, time requirements, and ease of application. They should be used with caution. A poor quality or poorly applied sunless tanner will produce unnatural results. These sunless tanners also contain harmful chemicals which can be absorbed by your skin.
