F U L L D I S C L O S U R E: 👩‍⚖️

Cetaphil & Cerave are known for their affordable price but why are they always recommended by derms?

The answer is a lot of dermatologists will prescribe medication's like Accutane and antibiotics to treat acne and other skin conditions. Most commonly these harsh meds will dry out your skin and cause a compromised skin barrier. In order to keep the rest of your routine simple while using intense meds, Derms will recommend, a "NOTHING" cleanser and moisturizer, typically Cetaphil or Cerave. What I mean by "NOTHING" skincare is that it is not benefitting your skin nor causing any harm, It's simple ingredients are used as a buffer in combination with medications. They contain no active ingredients to address any skin concerns, it is only used to maintain your current skin condition.

Derms rely on meds to do the work and ESTY'S prefer to focus on skincare, treatments and lifestyle changes.

Do I recommend Cetaphil or Cerave?
The answer is NO. There are way better products out there that have active ingredients and antioxidants. Your skin care routine at the very least should address, free radicals, daily skin stressors and the fact that we are always continuously aging. When researched skin care and potent active ingredients exist an aesthetician will always choose skincare that would option for your skin and not something that you will not benefit from❣️

LashLift Magic✨

Creating a sense of BALANCE ⚖️ in your skin is the only thing that is going to work for your acne- long-term.

Have you ever noticed if you follow the same routine that big marketing companies like proactive advertise your skin ends up dried out and more irritated than before you started, this is because you’r not caring for your skin with any sense of balance. If you are using a treatment serum such as salicylic acid or glycollic exfoliating pads it is important to make sure you are using a delicate or sensitized cleanser and moisturizer to help maintain an moisture balance within your skin barrier.

Exfoliating once or twice a week only and wearing SPF every day will keep from over drying and Protecting the health of your skin.

GOLD GLOW⚜️

✨Gold gives skin an instant brightening effect that makes the skin glow while tightening and firming to erase fine lines.


✨Gold has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that work well to calm inflammation, reduce skin redness, and protect against free radicals that lead to wrinkles and sun damage.

S P F ❔how much should you apply
The greatest signs of aging are due to damage from the sun, second is from a man, so protect yourself and your skin wisely.
🤭☀️😂
Let’s say your unprotected skin would normally take 10 minutes after sun exposure to burn, then applying SPF 30 sunscreen would slow the rate of burning to the point where it would take 30 times longer, or 300 minutes in total. SPF 15 would take 150 minutes, while SPF 50, 500 minutes.
