Putting Your Best Face Forward

The latest Skinpact by Dr. Kathy Fields has some great advice on looking your best:

Social media is making it easier to be found and harder to hide from connections and social commitments. When connecting with Facebook online brings you “face to face” with old friends offline, don’t shy away from being seen. It can be intimidating to reunite with someone you haven’t seen in a few years, but instead of stressing, remember that you have control over your skin’s future.

First, give your skin a healthy head start by selecting a regimen designed to target your top skin concerns such as aging or acne, and then use it daily and as directed. It’s incredible what a noticeable difference over-the-counter daily skincare can make in your skin’s appearance.

Starting Small with Skincare

The best anti-aging skincare products can be expensive.  Many brands charge over $100 for one serum bottle alone.  It better be magic in a bottle if you ask me!  At Rodan+Fields Dermatologists, you can get the REDEFINE Age Assault Regimen for $334.  It has everything you need, is a 60-day supply, and will give you visible results. But, not everyone wants to put that much money into a new skincare system.  I am one of them. 

Sunscreen Reverses Aging?

You know I am constantly on you to use sunscreen to protect your skin and slow down premature aging.  It pretty common knowledge that sun damage is no good for your skin and is the leading cause of premature aging. Well, hold on to your hats ladies!!!   Annals of Internal Medicine just published the result of the first large formal study on sun screen and aging.  It demonstrates that sunscreen not only slows skin aging…but reverses it!

 

According to Laurie Tarkan, an award-winning health journalist, “at the beginning of the study, 58 percent of participants had moderate photoaging, but by the end of the study, that number dropped to 49 percent, suggesting a decrease in photoaging in some of the participants. Get a skincare regimen and get in the habit of applying sunscreen. And remember, the sunscreen you put on in the morning will only last 3-4 hours tops. You’ll need to reapply throughout the day to keep your protection (and your age reversal) going.

Aging Eyes

This week we are targeting the eyes and anti-aging solutions.  Thanks to Rodan+Fields for this recent post:

Puffiness. Dark Circles. Expression lines. The eye area can tell all, revealing our daily, even hourly, ups and downs. And it’s no wonder—as the body’s thinnest and most delicate skin, the fragile eye area is continually bombarded with potential agers. Everything from sleep deprivation, dietary changes, pollution and the sun’s rays to aggressive pulling and tugging (as we put in contact lenses and take off makeup) and even our everyday movements of smiling, frowning or just blinking, take a toll.

What do you do to keep your eyes looking youthful?
