Get Glowing Skin For Spring
Is there anything you can do besides follow your usual skin care routine to breathe some life into your dull-looking skin after winter? Calista Skin and Laser Center has got you covered with our skin care tips and treatment options so that you get radiant looking skin in time for the best time of the year.
Beauty Tip #1- Exfoliate For A Glow
Dead skin cells accumulate on the surface of the skin over winter, which can leave your skin looking lackluster. The magic trick to revive your skin and get rid of large pores is exfoliation. Exfoliate often to leave your skin looking smoother and feeling softer. Use a face scrub to help effectively exfoliate the surface of your skin and remove this buildup so that your face glows. It also helps reduce the depth of the pore indents into the skin.
What is the best way to exfoliate? There are physical exfoliators that contain granules which you can massage over your face with wet fingers to physically rub off the dead skin cells and remove them. Then there are chemical exfoliators with glycolic acid in them to chemically break down the bond between cells and get rid of dead skin cells more gently.
Beauty Tip #2: Hydrate Your Skin With A Moisturizer
Cold weather can hamper oil production and the chilly winds can rough up the skin. You must stick to your moisturizing routine to get dewy skin. To boost the hydration of your skin, you should follow cleansing your skin morning and night with a moisturizer. Reach for a moisturizing formula that can be serums or creams to hydrate your skin without being too heavy. It should not just sit on the surface without getting any deeper. In winter, you can apply layers of moisturizers to seal in the moisture in your skin. Start with a serum which tends to be thinner than moisturizers, before applying a cream.
Beauty Tip #3- Show Some Love To Your Lips
Don’t forget to exfoliate your lips. Do away with rough, cracked lips by exfoliating your lips. Improve the look of your lips and also make them feel buttery soft and smooth. This will improve the look and application of your lipstick. Hydrate and moisturize your lips with your favorite lip balm or conditioner after exfoliating.
Beauty Tip #4- Address Blemishes And Acne
There are different kinds of blemishes you may need to address from whiteheads, blackheads, pustules to cystic acne. They all require different treatments from Photo Facial IPL. eMatrix, Microdermabrasion, Micro-Needling to CO2RE Fractional CO2 ablation. We can make sure that acne blemishes will be a distant memory by summer.
Acne blemishes won’t disappear overnight, so it is good to be proactive in order to prevent acne in the first place. Make sure you use a medicated cleanser, especially formulated with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide every day in the morning and before you go to sleep at night to help remove dirt, impurities, dead skin cells, and excess oil from the surface of your skin. Then moisturize your skin with a light serum. Sticking to a daily skin care routine will keep those pesky acne at bay.
Beauty Tip #5- Vitamin C Serum To Tackle Under-Eye Dark Circles
If you have annoying dark circles, massage some vitamin-c serum gently into the skin around your eyes with your finger for 3-5 minutes, before you head to bed. Check to see the active ingredients in your serum. Your serum may contain lightening agents like azelaic acid, kojic acid or hydroquinone. You can also prevent under eye puffiness by sleeping with your head slightly elevated in order to lower fluid retention. Regular use of your vitamin C serum can help lighten your under-eye dark circles.
