E58: The magical powers of high frequency on different skin conditions

Posted on by emiliegratton in Learn

You know that weird buzzing noise that we use during your facial treatment? Well, that’s the high frequency. Many believe that this is the oldest possible technology in the skin care industry (which is true!) BUT it doesn’t mean it’s not useful. We absolutely LOVE to include this in all our facial treatments because it can be VERY beneficial to many skin conditions, especially when it comes to blemishes and brightness of the skin.

What you’ll learn:

  1. What it is (the current)
  2. How it treats blemishes and acne breakouts
  3. How it works on the skin
  4. The benefits it has on different skin conditions

E57: Tips to keep your pores looking smaller

Posted on by emiliegratton in Learn

Ahh the famous blackheads and pores. Many believe that products will get rid of them – this is absolutely false. Pores are there for a reason and you cannot remove them from your skin. If you didn’t have pores, your skin would not be able to bring your oils to the surface of the skin to protect itself. Pores are a group of tubes that bring the sebum to the surface of the skin for a specific reason: moisture barrier. Without oils, your skin would be DRY. Before your get discouraged, there are ways to make them APPEAR smaller:

  1. Treatments: Extractions
  2. One daily habit that will help your skin stay clean
  3. Exfoliation
  4. Hydration
  5. Why you should NOT use nose strips

Exfoliators recommended:

E56: How to optimize your nighttime skincare routine for better results

Posted on by emiliegratton in Skincare Routines

Are you familiar with circadian rhythms? These are physical, mental, and behavioral changes that follow a 24-hour cycle. These natural processes respond primarily to light and dark (hello sunrise and sunset!) and affect us more than we believe. This also affects the way our skin behaves – at night time, our skin plunges into “repair and regeneration” mode. So how do we optimize our routine during the evening? Well, we’ll get into:

  1. The adjustment at night time of your “internal clock”
  2. What your skin is doing at night
  3. Ingredients to utilize at nighttime

Ideal nighttime products:
