| We all know the basics of skin care: cleansing, toning and moisturizing. But why should we also exfoliate, use a masque and serum? Read on to discover three simple steps that are often overlooked.
why exfoliate?
Exfoliation is the key to vibrant skin. Estheticians have long known that regular exfoliation, to remove the hard keratin layer build-up, brings luminosity and clarity to the skin. For younger skin, exfoliation unplugs pores and keeps skin clear and smooth. For mature skin, exfoliation is essential to help minimize fine lines, remove dry flakes, and to revive sluggish skin.
why use masks?
Using a face mask once or twice per week will dramatically increase the elasticity and health of your skin. TRUE skin care masks contain high amounts of concentrated vitamins and nutrient rich ingredients. When used consistantly, once or twice per week, mask applications allow the active ingredients to penetrate deeply into the skin surface giving additional hydration and firming benefits. Treatment masks can be used to control acne, rosacea, dryness or oiliness. |
