WHAT IS YOUR SKIN TELLING YOU?
We all know how frustrating it can be to experience acne, redness, dryness, or skin rashes and have no idea what is causing it. Did you know our body has a really cool way of telling us why we are experiencing a specific skin concern based on where it appears on our face.
The premise of face mapping is that your body alerts you of what's taking place inside your body by where acne or redness take place. Each area is connected to a specific organ in the body. So your skin is truly a window into your wellness!
Face mapping is an ancient medicinal technique combining Eastern and Western medicine that involves making connections between problems affecting someone’s face and that person’s overall health. It takes into account various causes of skin/facial conditions, such as: allergies, diet, stress levels, hormones, genetics, and age.
We always use face mapping when analyzing a client's skin because it has proven to be effective and accurate. We truly take our time when consulting with our clients and get to know lifestyle, diet, water intake, medication usage, because all of these things can affect your skin. This is total body wellness in action! Screenshot this face mapping chart for your records or refer back to this email the next time you have a breakout and you are unsure the cause!
5 age management mistakes you could be making
Not wearing sunscreen daily: 90% of all aging concerns are due to environmental aggressors. The best way to prevent aging is use of an antioxidant serum and sunscreen daily!
Not using a corrective serum in your routine: A high-quality, pharmaceutical-grade Vitamin C serum is worth its weight in gold due to its ability to stimulate collagen in the skin. A firming serum is also beneficial because of the peptides, which are the building blocks of collagen and elastin.
Not staying consistent with your facials: If you want to maintain your results, it's super important to stay consistent with your facial appointments. Your treatments are customized to address changes that occur between visits.
Keeping your Skincare routine too basic: While an old-school Clinique three step routine may have worked for you in the past, think of how much your life changes, or has even changed in the past 10 years. It's important to update your routine regularly. Our estheticians can help with that!
Waiting until you have to correct, instead of focusing on prevention: I always preach “It's easier to press pause, than to press rewind.” Don't wait until you already see fine lines and wrinkles! Let's implement a way to help you age gracefully, while keeping a youthful, radiant complexion.
