During the Autumn/ Winter months a main concern we see here at Little Luxury Beauty Salon, Warrington, is people commenting on their skin becoming dry.
The main culprit for this problem is the constant change from outdoors to central heated buildings and the windy weather- something we unfortunately cannot prevent. Our skins natural mouisturising factors also decrease at this time of year meaning it is even more important to look after our skin during these months.
Women tend to suffer from dry skin more than men due to the drop in progesterone/ estrogen levels which affects the skins natural moisture levels.
What can be done to boost my skins hydration?!
Follow a daily skin care routine!…
Using soap and water is a big NO!! Your skin care routine needs to include a careful and gentle cleansing factor. Remove your make up using a highly refined mineral oil firstly- we recommend the Eve Taylor Clear Cleanse. Clear Cleanse has Peach Kernel Oil and Sunflower Oil to gently and effortlessly dissolve make up and sebum from the skins surface. Argan Oil and Rice Bran Oil then work to provide age-defying properties leaving your skin feeling fresh and supple.
Your second choice of cleanser should then be chosen to treat the skin condition to promote healthy skin, your therapist can advise you on this.
Following a skin care routine is extremely important and does not have to be a long winded daily process. A simple routine including a double cleanse, exfoliation and mouisturising lotion is plenty to start your skin routine. To keep your routine simple and quick, exfoliate your skin 2-3 times a week and this could even be added into your second cleanse to make the process that little bit quicker in a morning! Exfoliating 2-3 times a week means the products you then use on your skin can work and penetrate deeper into the skins layers to treat the skin condition.
Treat your skin to a full professional facial treatment…
During your facial treatment your therapist will assess your skin type, condition and any main concerns you may have with your skin. After this consultation process the therapist will be able to choose products best to treat your skin, she will then also be able to give you full aftercare and home care advise on how to maintain your skin after your treatment.
Would you visit the dentist and not brush your teeth in-between appointments? No, and this is why we give you a full prescriptive treatment and home care advise to enable you to get the best out of your treatment and products advised for you,
Drink plenty of water daily…
Being dehydrated can have a huge affect on your skin type and condition- it is important to hydrate your skin from the inside too! Make sure you are drinking plenty of water through out the day every day to improve your skins hydration levels.
