Solve Unruly Hair with the Tassi

Skincare without Hair

The Tassi is an absorbent, double elastic, terry cloth hair wrap that is best used while brushing your teeth, washing your face, or even cleaning your house. Never struggle with unruly hair again. This new fad has been featured by Spa Week and on Oprah. It comes in various colors, from zebra to pink pokka dots. Available now at Facelogic Spa Redmond

Lit From Within

Lit from Within

Studies have shown that spot-free complexions make for younger-looking faces. Radiant skin reflects a more balanced transmission of red, blue, and green light than dull skin. Collagen acts like a reflector that catches and transmits light – thus those with pampered collagen have a ‘lit from within’ look. A regular skincare regime will drastically improve uneven complexions and give you a more radiant glow. To start your regular skincare regime contact Facelogic Spa Redmond.

Long Lasting Summer Make-UP

Melt-proof Summer Make-Up

Take the Time to Prime

Primer actually works – so take the time to put it on after you moisturize but before your foundation. This is the key to long-lasting foundation.

 Silicone is the Way to Go

A light-weight silicone based foundation will act like a barrier between your skin and the outdoor humidity; preventing your foundation from seeping into your pores. This is a perfect solution for good coverage without an afternoon reapplication.

 Creamy Shadows

Sweat and powders don’t mix, but sheer cream shadows tend to cake less in sweltering weather.

 Stunt Shine

To reduce that afternoon sheen one gets when it’s warm outside, dust a translucent powder over your T-zone with a large fluffy brush.

Must Know Bridal Beauty Tricks

Work your Waves:
Play up your natural assets if your wedding is outdoors and your hair tends to be frizzy, a pulled back ‘do’ can be the perfect touch to your perfect dress
 
Eye Catching:
Curling your lashes makes them two to three times longer. So, before adding that luxurious mascara try using a metal lash curler to pump up those lashes.
 
Detox to Depuff:
Consider a detox program to rid your system of the negative effects of your food. These allow you to eat healthy and de-puff – helping you look younger and more energized.
 
Lose the Shampoo:
Avoid shampooing your hair the day of the wedding in order to keep your hair the perfect texture to maintain and style appropriately. It will also hold its shape far better throughout your big day!
 
Drink to Radiance:
We have all heard the experts say that drinking eight 8-oz. glasses of water a day will improve skin’s luminosity in no time. Severely dehydrated skin can be the cause of significant stress.

A Few Tricks For A Younger Looking You

 

Focus on Your Skin
Your makeup will only look as fabulous as your skin does. Professional facials are essential to keep your skin in tip-top shape. In addition, regular skin care at home is also recommended. Cleanse, Tone and Moisturize daily in order to keep your face hydrated and radiant! Don’t forget your sun screen. Tip: use a daily moisturizer with SPF like PTR oil free moisturizer or Eminence Vanilla, both available at Facelogic Redmond.

Use Bronzer Sparingly
Don’t over-do the fake tan look! It is all about the hint of color. Just fluff some bronzer over your cheekbones and along your jaw line.

Flushed Apples
Skin-warming cheek color will complete any look! Though, the older you are, be mindful that the rule of thumb for applying blush is to apply the color higher up on your cheekbones for instant definition.

The Hideous Truth of Indoor Tanning

The Hideous Truth of Indoor Tanning

 

A major scientific report has just announced that indoor tanning devices are “definitely carcinogenic”; meaning that tanning beds WILL cause cancer. It has been proven that if you start your skin-cooking habit before the age of 30, your risk of developing melanoma increases by 75%.

We are here to bust some of these skin-baking myths:

Myth 1: To get the vitamin D you need, some fake & bake time is required.

• False, you can get enough Vitamin D your body requires by being outside with sunscreen for 5 to 15 minutes per week, taking vitamin supplements, or eating vitamin rich foods.

Myth 2: Melanoma can be found on parts of the body that aren’t exposed to sun, so UV light is not the sole cause of melanoma.

• False, there is 50 years of research that proves there is a strong correlation between sun exposure and all forms of skin cancer.

Myth 3: A base tan will protect you from sun damage.

• False, any color that your skin has means skin damage has already occurred. When outside, always slather on that SPF for beneficial sun protection.

So, why pay for cancer in a box when the (approximately) $40 you spend per month on your fake & bake you could have bought one of these…

            – 13 lattes

            – 40 songs downloaded to your iPod

            – the 1^st round at happy hour for you and your friends

Beat that Mean Melanoma

Beat that Mean Melanoma

May is Melanoma/Skin Cancer Detection & Awareness Month. According to Westchester Health Associates, skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States but it is also one of the most preventable and treatable. The incidence of skin cancer has reached preposterous levels: there has been a 300% increase in non-melanoma skin cancer since 1994 & 90% of it is associated with exposure to UV radiation. Furthermore, 1 in 5 Americans will have skin cancer at one point in their lives.

Stuart Zweibel, MD, PHD, from Westchester Health Associates states, “A tan is actually your body’s attempt to protect itself from the sun’s harmful rays and is a symptom of the sun damage that is occurring beneath the surface of the skin.”

In order to protect your skin from these unwanted rays, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or more. Make sure you apply sunscreen 30 minutes before going outdoors. The ingredients in the sunscreen need time to bind to your skin to be effective. If at all possible, avoid the mid-day sun, especially the hours between 10 AM to 4 PM, when the sun is the strongest and can do the most damage.

Know the warning signs of skin cancer. A skin growth that changes in size and appears pearly, translucent, brown, black, tan or multicolored, a mole or birthmark that changes color or texture or increases in thickness, is irregular in outline and larger than the head of an eraser.

How to Treat Enlarged Pores

Nothing wreaks your skin’s appearance quite like large pores. They’re easily clogged and give your complexion a rough texture and dull tone. Several treatments can reduce the appearance of large pores for brighter, healthier looking skin.

Exfoliation
As your skin naturally regenerates (a process that slows as you age), it sloughs off dead, dry cells. Pores “catch” them and get clogged. Gentle exfoliation will polish them away for smoother, brighter skin.

Microdermabrasion
This treatment gently roughs up the skin and stimulates collagen, which speeds the turnover of new, fresh skin.

Facials
Regular, professional skincare is the top method of managing enlarged pores. We always customize your facial to your exact needs, too, and are happy to extract blackheads—the result of clogged pores.

What Are the Benefits of Using a Facial Toner?

Using a toner is one of those easy-to-skip steps in your skincare regiment as you rush from cleansing to moisturizing. Not so fast! Slipping a well-balanced toner into your routine is well worth the few extra seconds. 

A quality, well-balanced toner will:

• remove any final traces of soap, dirt or soil, which can clog pores
• help to restore your skin’s natural PH
• prepare your face to “accept” moisturizer more readily
• improve your skin’s quality, especially when you chose one specially formulated for your complexion type– – dry, oily or combination. 

How to apply a toner:

If you’ve chosen a spray-on toner, simply spritz your face and allow it to dry. (I use Facelogic Skin Prep – it feels really cool and refreshing.) If your toner is liquid, generously moisten a cotton ball and smooth it on your complexion. Follow up with a moisturizer.
