1. What is SPF?
A specific SPF indicates how much longer a person's skin can be exposed to UVB before developing a burn. For example, if you can stay out in the sun for 8 minutes without getting red, and you use an SPF 15, you can now stay out in the sun for 120 minutes (8 X 15 SPF) before developing a burn. Keep in mind, this is a general number, some people will burn faster. Tip: Always apply sunscreen 30 minutes before sun exposure.
2. Why do I need specific products for the eye area?
There are two reasons to wear products made for your eye area. First, topical eye products are formulated so that they don't irritate the eyes or the thin skin surrounding it. Second, because the eye area has few, if any, oil glands of its own, it requires more intense hydration than anywhere else on the face.
3. My skin looks awful after I fly, what should I do?
4. How can I decrease pore size?
Unfortunately, pore size is genetically determined. By using a good skincare regimen with daily exfoliation, hydration, anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories, your pores will definitely appear smaller.
5. Does stress affect skin?
Absolutely! Remember to take time for yourself. Stress can have physiological effects on the body, including stimulating a hormone, which can encourage the sebaceous glands to produce more oil, increasing the chances of breaking out. Stress can manifest itself in our skin even three months after we experience the stressor. It is important to do things daily that reduce stress such as, relaxation activities, exercise, and sleep.
6. Is diet and nutrition an important factor in the health of my skin?
Absolutely! Overall proper nutrition is still an important tool for the health of your skin. It is important to drink lots of water and eat plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables and nutrient rich foods to maintain the health of your skin. Supplements can also help benefit your skin. As you may already know, there are so many factors that exist today that didn't exist several years ago. Today's population is exposed to so much more environmental damage such as smog, stress, smoke, chemicals, and other pollutants. Nutritional needs have changed as well. Often times your will not get all the nutrition your skin needs with your average daily intake of food. Most people need additional supplementation to provide skin with the nutrients it needs to stay balanced and healthy.
