How do I know which one is best for me?
The different skin care lines are meant to be
interchangeable depending on your specific skin care needs. They are all safe
to mix and match, but of course it is always wise to test a small, unnoticeable
area first before applying anything to the entire face.
What are the steps required in proper skin care?
1.
Cleanse – twice daily (AM &PM)
Cleansing
removes dirt, oil, makeup and pollutants from the skin without stripping the
skin of moisture. Cleansers also gently exfoliated dead skin cells to reveal
younger skin below.
2.
Tone - twice daily (AM &PM)
Toning
restores the skin’s natural pH Balance and removes any residue from the
cleanser. It also preps the skin to absorb treatments and moisturizers.
3.
Treat - twice daily (AM &PM)
Treatments
include serums and spot treatments to target specific needs of the skin. These
items give your anti-aging regimen a boost as they work deep within the skin layers to reverse
the signs of aging and other skin care needs.
4.
Moisturize twice daily (AM &PM) and
as needed
Moisturizers soften, protect, brighten and hydrate the skin.
5.
Masque – two to four times per week
Masques
are specialty treatments that repair and renew the skin bringing more luminosity
and radiance to your look.
What should I use if I am looking for a basic
skin care line?
Skintelligence is a simple to use, yet extremely
effective line that is great for any skin type. Formulated with botanicals to
be gentle and mild, Skintelligence has advanced science behind the finest
natural ingredients. The relaxing scent of lavender makes this line a joy to
use.
What are the signs of aging?
Many people believe wrinkles signify aging, which
is only part of the answer. Factors that make skin look older are not just fine
lines and wrinkles but also skin discoloration, sun damage, hyper pigmentation
and dehydration. On top of a healthy lifestyle of staying out of the sun,
exercising and keeping yourself hydrated, specialized cleansers, toners,
treatments and moisturizers that we provide cannot only help to prevent further
signs of aging but also reverse the aging signs you already have.
What is your most effective anti-aging product?
The best defense against the signs of aging is to
follow the four steps of any good skin care routine: Cleanse, Tone, Treat, and
Moisturize. Sunscreen is a huge factor in preventing more damage to the skin.
The entire Cellular Laboratories line is targeted for anti-aging. Adding the
Timeless Prescription Face Peel system and Matriskin Collagen MP Serum, as well
as our best selling VitaSheild OPC-3 Triple Serum will totally transform your
skin.
How do I treat acne?
Timeless Prescription has
excellent products for the treatment of acne. The 3-
step Acne Care System (11134)
is oil-free and contains Benzoyl Peroxide.
Benzoyl peroxide works directly to reduce
bacteria production on the skin and keep the pores clear, thus reducing the
accumulation of impactions or “blackheads” on the skin’s surface. For active
“whiteheads” try dabbing on Timeless Prescription Anti-Blemish Lotion (1269).
Calamine Powder, Salicylic acid and Camphor work to dry out the pus and inflammation
around the infected hair follicle.
It is important that people with severe acne take
precaution to look at internal causes as well as external ones. Taking Timeless
Prescription “PrevaDerm” (1352) will help to regulate the body, normalizing
the skin. Also drinking water is key to flush toxins out of the body. Make sure
that the person never touches their face with their hands; this spreads
bacteria and oils, causing more breakouts.
How do I exfoliate the skin?
Exfoliation is important for anti-aging purposes
as well as for those struggling with congested skin. Timeless Prescription has
several products that exfoliate the skin. The most gentle would be Timeless
Prescription Facial Exfoliating Cleanser (11120) with Enzymes and MDI
Complex. This soap-free cleanser has natural fruit enzymes that gently slough
away surface skin cells. F.A.C.E. pads are also gentle, yet effective
exfoliaters. If you need a more aggressive exfoliation, Timeless
Prescription Advanced Hydroxy Face Peel (6506) and Neutralizer pads are for
you. The AHAs break down congestion and smooth away fine lines, revealing fresh
glowing skin.
Cellular Laboratories De-Aging Facial Cleaner (11203)
is also an extremely mild exfoliant. It contains Keratoline, an enzymatic
exfoliation that gently eliminates the dead skin cells to reveal younger,
healthier skin.
For an exfoliating lotion, try Skintelligence
Alpha 24 (1275). It has a combination of alpha-hydroxy acids and an SPF 8
to promote healthier looking skin.
Exfoliate your skin based on your individual
needs, some people need it every day, others can exfoliate once or twice
weekly.
What is the best way to get rid of stretch marks
or scars?
Pentaxyl (11150) is a revolutionary
lotion that can be used on the body or face for deep wrinkles or stretch marks.
The Matrixyl Complex promotes collagen production to even out the skin from
within. The skin will appear more plump and uniform in texture and coloration.
Use twice daily on the effected area.
How do you reduce under-eye circles and
puffiness?
VitaShield Intensive Eye Firming Treatment (1255)
contains a powerful blend of vitamins and coenzyme Q10 to reverse damage to the
sensitive skin around the eye. When treating this area be sure to be extremely
gentle. Use your ring finger to gently tap the product into the orbital bone.
Cellular Laboratories De-Aging Eye Crème (11194)
also plumps and brightens the delicate skin around the eye.
We recommend using the Cellular Laboratories
De-Aging Eye Crème as your under- eye moisturizer every day and VitaSheild
Intensive Eye Firming Treatment as a specialty treatment a 3-5 times a week.
