What is a Brazilian Wax?
Brazilians are subject to personal desire when it comes to waxing the bikini area.
The brazilian is a fancy way to let your esthetician or cosmetologist know that you are interested in
removing more than just a little hair off the edges. Some prefer to remove all the hair in the bikini area,
others prefer to leave a little something for a design. It can be a somewhat painful experience your first time or
two. I suggest taking a couple pain relief (ibueprofin) aids about a half hour before going in for your new look.
What are Parabins?
Parabins are preservatives used in many products. There are several types of Parabins.
Studies show that Parabins may have some direct correlation or link to cancer.
Most cancer survivors pay close attention to finding products absent of Parabins to lessen the chance of having a relapse.
Should I wear Sunblock everyday?
Of Course!!!! The sun shines everyday whether you see it or not. The suns rays
are very powerful and come right through the cloud layer. in fact the
rays getting through the clouds are the most harmful to your skin. Just remember, your best defense
against aging is protecting your skin.
What causes brown spots on the face and how can I get rid of them?
Very common and traditionally harmless, hyperpigmentation is an increase in color caused by either an increase in melanin, an
increase in melanocytes, or the deposit of another substance that adds color by forming deposits in skin.
This darkening of skin can be brought on by sun exposure, skin inflammation, medications, hormones, trauma,
pollution and stress. It can even be the remnants of scarring related to acne or a surgical procedure.
Sunblocks are your best defense and best form of prevention.
There are many ways to decrease the hyperpigmentation,
but most treatments give temporary relief. Dermelogica is launching a brand new product "Chroma White".
Chroma White is a line of products specifically designed to address hyperpigmentation. As usual, all skin conditions differ
from person to person, it is best to visit your skin care professional to determine proper care.
On a side note: Any contraceptive METHODS that work through hormonal intervention or delivery of estrogen can cause hyperpigmentation, IUD no.
