Skincare Housewives of Vancouver-style!

No Comments »

Tuesday April 17th, 2012

If you’ve been following the glamorous gals from the new reality show The Real Housewives of Vancouver, you’ll know that they have very exquisite taste from clothing to cars to houses and everything in between.  Not to mention their beauty rituals; all the best in skincare, makeup, haircare, and of course cosmetic enhancements!  At Spa Boutique we offer some very luxurious products, and while some of our customers do opt all-in, most are more apprehensive and select only one or two of these items at a time.  Let’s take a look at one of our most high-end, creme-de-la-creme skincare lines: Carita Luxury Beauty Care.  I’ve selected some of the most desirable products for anti-aging and put them together in a Housewives of Vancouver-style beauty routine.

Step 1: Cleanse (morning & evening)                    

Cleanse your skin using Carita Progressif Anti Rides Cleansing Beauty Emulsion ($72.00).  This milky emulsion gently cleanses the skin and eye area while softening, soothing, and hydrating the skin.

Step 2: Tone (morning & evening)

Finish the cleansing process, tone, and wake up your skin with Carita Progressif Anti Rides Comforting Beauty Lotion ($72.00).

Step 3: Exfoliate (2-3 times per week)                      

Speed up your skin’s natural exfoliation process to smooth lines, brighten, and soften your skin with Carita Progressif Anti Rides Intense Smooth Micro Peel ($91.00).  This gentle peel dissolves dead skin cells using enzymes and the skin is also lightly polished when the peel is feathered off (gommage-style) once dry.

Step 4: Masque (2-3 times per week)

Boost your results greatly by using the Carita Progressif Anti-Age Biological Face Mask ($99.00).  This creamy masque instantly brightens, softens, sooths, and relaxes the skin.

Step 5: Concentrated Serum (morning & evening)

The Carita Progressif Parfait The Perfect Gold Serum ($310) contains real gold powder to illuminate the skin.  It also fights free radicals and works to reduce all of the visible signs of aging.

 

 

Step 6: Moisturize & Protect (morning & evening)

Set back time with the Carita Progressif Parfait Perfect Cream ($399).  This youth-renewing skin cream nourishes, softens, and detoxifies to restore radiance.  Wrinkles and fine lines are smoothed and skin is more firm and toned.

Step 7: Eye Care (morning & evening)

Protect and correct damage in the eye contour area with Carita Progressif Parfait Perfect Cream for Eyes and Lips ($173.00).

 

Now, just add a little golden luxury to your hair with OroFluido Hair Elixir and you’re ready for your close-up!

How to Fix and Restore sun-damaged, aging skin

No Comments »

Sunday July 2nd, 2006

 

The manner in which skin ages is a result of heredity and environment. Sunlight is the most significant of the environmental factors. Sun damaged skin has a thickened stratum corneum (outer layer), a thinner and atrophic epidermis, dark spots and irregular collagen and elastin fibers (wrinkles). To reverse these conditions the objectives are to create a thinner stratum corneum, a thicker epidermis with less atypia and uniform color, and increase the production of collagen and elastin.

 

Causes of Aging Skin
There are a variety of theories about what causes us to age and eventually die. The following are three of the more well-received theories:

  • Free Radical Damage
  • Hormone Depletion
  • Waste Accumulation.

Cells produce more waste than they can eliminate. This accumulation of waste interferes with normal cell functions, resulting in malfunction. Eventually, these cellular systems fail and die. Skin can look less healthy because the rate at which the irritants and toxins are removed is decreased.

Conditions of Aging Skin
Aging skin becomes apparent with a variety of degenerative conditions. Heredity and environment both play a role in this process. Environmental sun damage (or photo-damage) plays the largest part, being cumulative and beginning from youth. Collectively, the aging process and accumulated environmental damage produce the following functional changes in the skin:

Treatment for Aging Skin
A new treatment plan to help you achieve a more beautiful, healthy glow. I suggest the following regimin with Jan Marini Skin Research products.

How do Jan Marini products restore aging and sun-damaged skin?

  • Exfoliation and regeneration of skin cells.
  • Cell growth stimulation and increased collagen production.
  • Protection from UVA/UVB damage.
  • Stimulates growth, repair and regeneration of cells.

What results can you expect when you use Jan Marini skin resurfacing products?

  • Your skin texture will improve.
  • Fine lines will decrease and deeper wrinkles will smooth out.
  • Your skin will look firmer, younger and healthier.

Treatment Products

Jan Marini Age Intervention Retinol Plus

Age Intervention Retinol PLUS is significantly more than a retinol product. It is specially formulated with anti-aging and collagen boosting peptides, antioxidants, hydrators and skin soothing ingredients.

Jan Marini C-Esta Serum

This highly concentrated vitamin c serum will help to smooth the skin leaving a soft, supple appearance. The skin will appear healthier and younger with deeper lines appearing less pronounced and skin pigment looking more even in tone.  Vitamin c is a powerful antioxidant as well as a collagen-booster.

Jan Marini Bioglycolic Bioclear Face Lotion

Alpha and beta hydroxy acids in this treatment loction cause a shedding of the outer layers of dead cells improving the clarity of the skin and softening of lines and wrinkles.
