• Homecare - Maturing Skin

As we age our cellular renewal slows down considerably. When we are young, it takes approximately 28 day for our cells to turnover, as we age the cellular renewal slow to approximately 50 days. This causes a thickening of the outer layer of skin. Two main concerns with maturing skin are loss of elasticity (which causes the skin to sag) and fine lines and wrinkles due to a reduction of collagen production

Examples of maturing skin include loose skin that has lost its “spring”, Crow’s feet, lip lines, smile lines and frown lines.

MASK. (Morning only) When you apply a mask, your body’s response is to produce fluids that come up and push the mask off. Whether your skin is oily or dry, this excess fluid hydrates the surface cell layers, which are normally less than 10% moisture. The suppler these layers are the healthier functioning the skin is. The fluids also put pressure on the pores to help purge clogged pores. When you scrub, you’ll not only be removing the mask, you will also be sloughing off dead skin cells which will help keep your pores clean and allow your skin to absorb treatment products. Apply to the face, neck and decollette for 5 - 15 minutes and remove using the recommended scrub.

HYDRATE. The skin’s internal moisturizing system contains oils (lipids) that hold water (moisture) between the skin cells. Both are needed to restore moisture and keep skin soft, flexible and firm. Without such a balance, the beauty of the skin is impaired. Within our duo-moisture system, the Gels replenish the skin with needed moisture (water) while the creams hold the moisture in. Each of our Gels and Creams are specifically formulated for each skin type, giving just the right balance to the skin. Apply 1-2 pumps to the face, neck and decollette.

MOISTURISE. Apply the recommended moisturiser. Moisturising locks moisture and any treatment products in to the skin increasing hydration levels and protecting the skins barrier. Apply to the face, neck and decollette and gently massage in to the skin.

PROTECT. (Morning Only) It is imperative that you use a good sunscreen every day to protect the skin from the irritating and ageing effects of UV rays. Apply a small amount of sunscreen to the face, neck and decollette on top of the moisturiser. FACT -50% of the UVA rays (Ageing rays) can penetrate through cloud, glass and clothing. This is why sunscreen is important all year round.
