Laboratoire Remede Translucent UV Coat Tinted SPF 30

By Makeup Addict · August 22, 2010 · 0 Comments · 545 Views

Laboratoire Remede Translucent UV Coat Tinted SPF 30 $40.00 Available @ Laboratoire Remede

Skin deteriorates as it ages, but the sun plays a key role in the acceleration of wrinkles, as roughly 80% of wrinkles are due to photoaging.

UV exposure induces production of the same enzymes that degrades collagen with age, and inhibits the ability of fibroblasts to produce new collagen. Free radicals from UV radiation and other environmental aggressors cause inflammation, DNA mutations, collagen breakdown, dark spots, and eventually loss of elasticity, and resilience.

The innovative "all around" beauty protector. This lightly tinted translucent fluid acts as an ultra-light beautifying shield that protects the skin all day from UV rays, which are responsible for aging skin. Combining antioxidants, micronized mineral filters with SPF 30 protection, and iridescent light-reflecting powders, this beauty-boosting formula embellishes the skin with a unique flawless finish. The luxuriously oil-free sheer texture glides on easily over any daily moisturizer, effectively protecting against harmful UV rays. Skin looks fresh, even and radiant.

Dr. Obagi's ~ Summer Skin Tip ~ Oclipse to the rescue

By Miss Style Apothecary · June 14, 2010 · 0 Comments · 786 Views

 

The summer months can be many things but the most prevalent of those things is that the temperature soars and it is HOT out! That having been said, our usual makeup routines need to be pushed aside for the summer months to give skin a break from the day-to-day application it sees the other 3 seasons of the year and instead treat it prescriptively to the season, and the factors that accompany it.

The idea of going without foundation, even if for only a few days, scares most women – but there’s a solution that protects AND perfects your complexion, at the same time: ZO Skin Health Oclipse Sunscreen + Primer SPF 30.

Developed by renowned dermatologist Dr. Zein Obagi, Oclipse ($65) is a multi-tasking sunblock that not only provides effective protection against both UVA and UVB rays, it also stimulates collagen production, shields skin from aggressors that age skin AND makes skin look younger going above and beyond standard sunscreens. And, to top it all off, the all-in-one formula acts as a primer, evening skin tone and creating a silky base for makeup application.

Just as important as the ingredients within Oclipse are those that are left out – the formula is free of chemicals like oxybenzone, sulisobenzone and Parsol 1789 that provide only marginally more protection and help manufacturers pump up the SPF rating.

So, this summer – skip the foundation and pile on the sunscreen, doctor’s orders.

Winter Skincare Tips from Dr. Denese

By Miss Style Apothecary · December 2, 2009 · 0 Comments · 965 Views

Hydrating Cleanser $22.00 – Switch to a gentle cleanser that doesn’t strip the skin. Aggressive cleanser can take away natural moisture of the epidermis and leave your skin dry and itchy.


Microdemabrasion Cream $35.00– Gently exfoliate your skin once a week. Dead surface cells can form a barrier that stops the moisturizer from permeating your skin.


HydroShield Ultra Moisturizing Face Serum $125.00 – Add an intense dose of moisture to your skin by using a serum. Not only can a serum plump up your skin cell and help lock in hydration, but it can also help absorb the moisturizer afterwards.


Hydroshield Dream Cream $40.00– Continue to add hydration with an intensive moisturizer. This will help maintain the moisture in skin lipid barrier and avoid irritating itchiness and dry lines.


SPF 30 Defense Day Cream $34.00 – Last but certainly the most important is to use a broad spectrum UV protection to sum up your daily routine. Harmful UVA and UVB waves still exist during the winter and they can cause skin pre-maturing and pigmentation.

Smart makeup tip! Blend your usual concealer with Dr. Denese HydroShield Serum to create your own moisturizing cover up. This will help your concealer to stay put all day and avoid dry lines under your eyes!
