<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I am beyond excited to announce my newest & greatest facial machine coming to Skin Studio By Megan...the ultimate skin refiner. I have been saving my pretty pennies for a long time for this machine. The ultimate skin refiner is very similar to the popular hydra facial, just a different machine. We start with a 4 step service including, cleansing, peeling, extracting & infusing serums into the skin. This facial machine also offers oxygen infusion, ultrasonic skin scrubber, wet or dry microdermabrasion & micro current. This machine utilizes water and serums to cause a gentle suction that removes dead skin cells, clogged pores and impurities leaving behind healthy glowing skin with each step. Extractions are now easy, fun and painless. This facial gets you glowing, smooth skin with zero downtime. This is an amazing upgrade and alternative to traditional microdermabrasion as its infusing the skin with antioxidants and hydration during the entire treatment. The most satisfying part is looking at the waste tank after your treatment to see all of your debris floating in the water that is suctioned & extracted from your skin. Schedule your hydroglow facial at Skin Studio By Megan. </span><br />

All of my clients know I am a huge fan of micro needing so I am excited to offer this less invasive similar treatment called nano needling. <br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgemcvD-yoWrsicf-NYBXiFgdObAgoRdyALH2rLmlSiK5edDvp-knegtBjRJN7cWtB4dAPW3afwSaLj4QHTK_7Cc5pfxLU_Tq9zosLkKXxsmd1nKIDACsGT4iAy5bL2r83XyR7kw9R-jYM/s1600/micro+vs+nano.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="300" data-original-width="600" height="160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgemcvD-yoWrsicf-NYBXiFgdObAgoRdyALH2rLmlSiK5edDvp-knegtBjRJN7cWtB4dAPW3afwSaLj4QHTK_7Cc5pfxLU_Tq9zosLkKXxsmd1nKIDACsGT4iAy5bL2r83XyR7kw9R-jYM/s320/micro+vs+nano.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

<br />
<b>What is nano needling? </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Nano needling uses silicone or surgical steel cartridges. The pyramid-like tips are microscopic, smaller than one single strand of hair. This treatment only effects the epidermis (top layers of skin) so there is no pain or downtime. When the nano needling pen hits the skin, it creates up to 200,000 nano channels. This technique causes the cells in the skin to re-arrange themselves and allow nutrition to pass through the skin barrier to help the absorption from active ingredients and stimulate collagen. Within 15 minutes after the treatment, the skin cells in the perforated layer return to their original position. This treatment can be used for a variety of skin conditions & cocktail to your individual skin needs. It is great to deliver hydrating properties, lightening agents, active acne ingredients etc. to tailor to your skin.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Benefits:</b><br />
-product absorption<br />
-gentle exfoliation<br />
-increases hydration<br />
-penetrates upper epidermis<br />
-infusion ingredients trigger the regenerative process of the skin<br />
-increases circulation<br />
-softens fine lines & wrinkles<br />
-evens skin tone<br />
-improves skin texture<br />
-improves acne scarring<br />
-calms inflammation<br />
-creates a beautiful glow<br />
<br />
<b>Downtime: </b><br />
There is no downtime with nano needling or any need to use topical numbing cream. This treatment feels like vibrations on the skin and is pain free. If using a stronger active ingredient (acne products for example) you might have a day or two of dryness. The next day the skin will be plump and glowing.<br />
<br />
<b>Price and treatments:</b><br />
Skin Studio By Megan will offer your customized nano needling treatment for $125. This treatment is best done in a series, especially when targeting texture or acne scarring & fine lines.<br />

Mandelic Acid is an Alpha Hydroxy Acid that is extracted from bitter almonds. Mandelic Acid has the largest molecule size of the AHA's, meaning it doesn't penetrate as deep and cause as much irritation or inflammation. This makes it safe for just about anyone and a perfect peel for a first time peel client. I love the results this ingredient provides without having lots of drying & flakiness. This ingredient is very beneficial for acne, aging & pigmentation. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Check out this great before and after a mandelic peel. There is much less irritation & inflammation. </span><br />

I asked on Instagram what topics you all would love to see next on Skin Studio By Megan's Blog and the most requested was eye serums/cream. I did an older post on this but now that I have new favorites I figured it was time for an update. Working in the industry for almost a decade I have tried many eye products, and it is honestly hard to find ones I absolutely love. I am constantly laughing & smiling so I have lots of fine lines & I also get dark circles and puffiness in the mornings. I need a product that takes care of it all. Here is a list at my top favorites and some questions I frequently get.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Q:</b> Do I need an eye cream or an eye serum and what is the difference.<br />
<br />
<b>A:</b> The biggest difference is how the company formulates it & delivers its ingredients. Most of the time eye creams are thicker and for dryer skin, focusing more on hydration. Serums typically target more of the dark circles, puffiness & fine lines and wrinkles. However, this is not true to all brands and products. For instance, Skin Scripts peptide eye serum is more for brightening. de-puffing and targeting fine lines and their tri-peptide eye cream is for dryer skin types that really need hydration around the eye area. I usually sell their eye serum to most clients and just my older<i> really </i>dry clients the eye cream.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Q:</b> What age should I start using an eye product?<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>A: </b>NOW....prevention is key people. I usually start clients in their early twenties or late teens. I would definitely add an eye serum in your skincare routine because no one wants wrinkles & crows feet. Plus every age can suffer from puffiness and dark circles.<br />
<br />
<br />
Below is my list of favorite eye serums and creams, starting with my favorite.<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>Viktoria DeAnn Peptide Eye Serum:</b><br />
This is my absolute favorite eye product I have ever used, and thats saying a lot. Plus this powerful peptide serum is only $38 and lasts forever because one little drop covers both eyes. I cannot keep this product in stock. I also have never had an eye serum that received so many raving reviews and compliments. This bad boy tightens the fine lines & wrinkles instantly, I have never seen anything like it. It also is so good at reducing dark circles & puffiness. I originally found out about Viktoria DeAnn via esthetician forums and discussions about favorite eye serums. This one kept getting a ton of mentions so I immediately reached out to the company and its been love at first sight ever since.<br />
<br />
Viktoria DeAnn's peptide eye serum quickly penetrates and helps brighten & firm the delicate skin of the eye area. The signs of aging (stress, puffiness, dark circles & wrinkles) are reduced to improve the appearance of the skin. Acting as an antioxidant & optimizing hydration, green tea extract & soluble collagen are complimentary actives to the UET-3 peptide complex. This product was the 2018 dermascope winner for best eye serum voted on by estheticians.<br />

MY OLD FAVORITE & STILL A GREAT OPTION:<br />

<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>iS Clinical Youth Eye Complex:</b><br />
This used to be my favorite until I tried the Viktoria DeAnn peptide eye serum. I still absolutely love this eye cream and highly recommend it. iS Clinical is one of the top brands of skincare, however it is more pricey which some clients don't love. This product is $98 but a little goes a long way. I used to always stock this but with the higher price tag, it doesn't sell as well. If you ever need this product I can definitely get it for you or recommend a million places in Lexington, that have it in stock!<br />
<br />
iS Clinical Youth Eye Complex combats the visual signs of aging. Clinically proven to target visual areas of concern and, as a result, skin looks firmer & more resilient. Powerful peptides, key growth factors and potent antioxidants help reduce the appearance of wrinkles & visibly brighten under eye area to keep skin smooth, hydrated & protected all day long.<br />
<br />

<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Skin Script Peptide Eye Serum: </b><br />
This product is surprisingly so good. Skin Script is an amazing, affordable skincare line sold only to professionals. I love Skin Script & my clients love the price tag. Good skincare does not always have to be outrageously expensive. I used to always recommend this one for the budget friendly option until I tried the Viktoria DeAnn. I still carry a few of these in stock because it is a little cheaper. The Viktoria DeAnn is only $8 more and definitely worth the difference in my opinion. This one is $30.<br />
<br />
Skin Script Peptide Eye Serum opens the eye zone for a refreshed, youthful appearance. Brightens discoloration, reduces appearance of fine lines & wrinkles, stimulates circulation and improves tissue strength while encouraging healthy cellular skin functions.<br />

<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Skin Script Tri-Peptide Eye Cream:</b><br />
I only recommend this to clients with very dry skin around the eyes or who request an actual cream. I will occasionally use this once a week, or when I am super dry from a chemical peel or treatment. This is a great affordable option for older clients. $30<br />
<br />
Skin Script Tri-Peptide Eye Cream is for dry skin. It opens the eye zone for a refreshed, youthful appearance. It softens skin and firms the eye area, stimulates circulation & improves tissue strength.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Dr. Brant No More Needles:</b><br />
I got a sample of this at Sephora with my points one day and I surprisingly enjoyed this. It really does help with the under eye baggage. It did seem a little on the drying side which I didn't love. This product is $42 at Sephora.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<br />
AN OKAY OVER THE COUNTER OPTION:<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Clinique all about eyes:</b><br />
Okay so I really don't get much results from this serum but I just love the roller ball applicator. The metal rolling ball does have a cooling effect which feels so nice in the mornings. My mom always had this & would rub our under eyes (I get it honestly) and it feels so nice. I own one, however I really don't see much effect other than a little de-puffing from the roller ball effect. I still like to use it sometimes for the feeling and then I go in after with my Viktoria DeAnn peptide serum. You could also just buy a jade roller and use in the morning for the de-puffing effect and then use another product after. $32.50<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Disclaimer: I usually stick to professional medical grade products. Being an esthetician and skincare junkie I have always used high end professional products. I do try some of the more popular skincare brands found at Sephora, Ulta, etc. to test out. I also get lots of samples of products to try. Medical grade skincare sold from professional estheticians, medspas, plastic surgeons offices, dermatologist, etc. have higher active ingredients. What are your favorite eye products? If you have any questions about the eye area or what product is best for you, email me at skinstudiobymegan@gmail.com.<br />

<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">CASMARA MASKS:</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">These masks actually cool the temperature of your skin by up to 10 degrees F, providing a lymphatic draining effect reducing puffiness and dark circles under the eyes, while soothing, firming & toning the face. An instant facelift effect which we all<i> </i>need. You can actually place this mask over the neck, eyes & lips as well (only if you aren't claustrophobic). These algae peel-off masks are formulated with seaweed extracts that provides a powerful hydrating effect, along with diverse active ingredients, different with every mask for every skin type & condition. I am so excited to finally offer these amazing fun masks that provide instant results. The great thing about this mask is it peels off in one piece, so you can also take the peeled off mask home and use it again within 24 hours. </span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">CIRCADIA'S MANDELICLEAR WITH VITAMIN A ACCELERATOR:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The mandeliclear peel system is a deeper peel that was developed specifically for treating pigmentation issues. This unique acid complex will effectively lighten pigmentation due to acne, melasma, or photo damaged skin. The mandeliclear acid complex combined with the Vitamin A accelerator was designed to accelerate physical peeling without excessive damage to the skin resulting in a flawless complexion. This peel will <i>definitely </i>cause peeling, in other words a few days of downtime is needed. I just had surgery this past Wednesday and applied this peel Thursday night. I began flaking Friday afternoon and peeled for several days. I still have a little peeling around my hairline but my skin is as smooth as a babies bottom! This peel is phenomenal and I cannot wait for you guys to try it out. This peel would be great for those with acne, pigmentation & aging. This peel does need to be left on this skin for 12 hours without getting wet. It would be ideal to do on a Thursday afternoon, that way you can peel over the weekend and be good as new by Monday.</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I will post some pictures below of my peeling process. </span><br />

Grapeseed Oil is my favorite oil for the skin. I have been on a hunt for <i>years </i>for the perfect company to private label my own grapeseed oil. It has been my dream & goal. I finally found the perfect local soap company to private label Skin Studio By Megans own grapeseed oil. Grapeseed oil is my jam for all of its amazing benefits but I also might love it even more because its a by-procduct of the process of making wine. It is pressed from the seeds of the grapes used in the wine making process. I love wine & I love this oil. Being an acne-prone & oily skin girl myself, the thought of putting an oil on my face really freaked me out. I am so glad I got over my fear. Grapeseed Oil is non-comedgonic meaning it does not clog your pores. This makes it safe for <i>all </i>skin types. It actually helps oily skin & acne. The best function of grapeseed oil is it is a nice, silky moisturizer.<br />
<br />
Here are all the amazing benefits of using a grapeseed oil on your skin:<br />
-moisturizes<br />
-anti-inflammatory<br />
-antimicrobial<br />
-antioxidant<br />
-regulates oil<br />
-benefits all skin types<br />
-Vitamins C, D & A help reduce scars & wrinkles<br />
<br />
The best way to use this is at night time after all of your skincare routine....meaning this is your very last step. I put this all over my body, not just on the face. I am very oily so I only use this at night time, however some of my extremely dry clients will use this in the morning as well. I even have a few clients mix a drop into their foundation for a dewy skin look.<br />

You finally clear your pesky pimple and you are left with a red mark that can last weeks, months & even years. Unfortunately there really isn't much that will help rid you of this mark but time, however a few things that might speed it up. PIH can be a result of acne, ingrown hairs, or any injury to the skin. Due to the injury to the skin, the inflammation has triggered melanin production as an immune response. Picking at a pimple or scraping a scar can make this worse. Here are some things to help speed up PIH.<br />
<br />
1) Mandelic Acid: My clients are very aware of my obsession with Mandelic Acid. Mandelic has the largest molecule structure of all the Alpha Hydroxy Acids, meaning it doesn't penetrate as deeply causing lots of dryness, downtime or inflammation. Mandelic Acid is an amazing ingredient for acne, aging and pigmentation. I love mandelic acid in all of my at home skin care products and in office treatments.<br />
<br />
2) IPL: Intense Pulsed Light for vascularity can help some with PIH but won't always get rid of it completely. IPL is a little uncomfortable and does feel like a hot rubber band snap. I love to get an IPL done once a year for my redness in my face or any pigmentation I have. Sometimes it can take multiple treatments but one or two a year does it for me. Make sure you research who you go to for your IPL treatments. I have <i>tons </i>of clients who have gone to places with poorly trained technicians and have permanent scarring left from IPL. I personally do not perform IPL on my own now but have tons of places I recommend to go have it done.<br />
<br />
3) Lactic Acid: Lactic Acid is a very gentle yet effective ingredient in peels and at home products. Lactic Acid is exfoliating, increases collagen and elastin, super moisturizing (great for dry skin), fades pigmentation, and gives an amazing overall glow to the skin. I love in office lactic acid peels, in office enzymes containing lactic acid and Viktoria DeAnn's 5% Lactic Acid & Collagen peptide product. It is a mild at home peel and delivers excellent results.<br />
<br />
4) Microneedling: Microneedling is my favorite thing ever. It uses a pen device or roller with small tiny needles to puncture the skin and create tiny "holes" in the skin. This stimulates the skins wound healing response to stimulate collagen and elastin, it is great for tightening the skin, pitted acne scarring, surgical scars, etc. It also really helps with the red acne marks as well. I love microneedling more than most lasers for scarring and tightening. It is nice because you have very little downtime and amazing results. You can have it done at most med spas, derms or plastic surgeon offices. They will numb you prior so there is very little pain. You will experience redness the day of and usually pink the next day or two, you can also have a little bit of dryness with this treatment and flake for a few days. It is my favorite treatment ever & I have had the best luck with acne scarring with this treatment.<br />
<br />
5) Kojic & Arbutin: These lighteners are in lots of products/peels and also help lighten PIH. These are in my Skin Script Glycolic/Retinol Pads as well as my face reality peels. These ingredients do a great job to lighten pigmentation and even skin tone.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Products that I recommend to help lighten PIH:<br />
<br />
-Skin Scripts Glycolic/Retinol Pads<br />
<br />
-Viktoria DeAnn 5% Lactic Acid & Collagen<br />
<br />
-Skin Scripts Retinol Scrub/Mask<br />
<br />
-Face Reality Mandelic Cleanser or Mandelic Scrub<br />
<br />
-Face Reality Mandelic Serum<br />

<br />
<br />
Have dry skin that gets itchy? Todays post is all about the reason why dry skin itches and how you can help prevent this.<br />
<br />
Skin becomes dry when water or moisture escapes from the surface layers of the skin. It also is from lack of natural sebum protection. Dry skin gets itchy because it has exposed gaps in the barrier function, making nerves exposed. When surface cells dry. they become more brittle and itchy. When you scratch the itchy skin, these dead dry skin cells are removed and skin becomes inflamed.<br />
<br />
How to help...<br />
-Use a good moisturizer suited for your skin type.<br />
-Try using a moisturizer with cortisone in it for extremely itchy skin.<br />
-Try using a humidifier to help<br />
-Get facial treatments to help remove dead skin cells and hydrate the skin<br />
-Avoid extreme cold temperatures & wind<br />
-Take shorter showers with luke warm temperature...not HOT water.<br />
-Can be treated but consistency and frequency is keySkin Studio By Meganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06910289607234936799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1303166216755064780.post-79233256388531310712017-12-14T18:45:00.000-08:002017-12-14T18:45:12.274-08:00OXYGEN RX TREATMENT<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: -0.11999999731779099px;">What are peptides? Peptides are one of the best ingredients for age management. These active molecules work by penetrating the top layer of the skin and sending specific signals to our cells to let them know how to function. Each peptide helps the skin to achieve a specific result, whether you desire more collagen, need to tone, lift, correct, hydrate, etc. Each peptide in your regimen can and will yield significant, visible changes within the skin when used in a routine. </span><span style="letter-spacing: -0.11999999731779099px;">These peptides send specific messages to the skin and target the dermal growth areas of the skin producing positive changes within the layers of the epidermis. Viktoria De'Ann Peptide Cosmeceuticals provide cumulative results that don't plateau leaving your skin in optimum health.</span></span></span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
November is National Healthy Skin Month! Which means Skin Studio By Megan will be giving out daily tips for your skin. Follow these tips & tricks for happy, healthy, youthful & glowing skin!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1) Don't skip your SPF.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2) Don't drink from a straw, it will create wrinkles around the mouth. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3) Exfoliate 1-3 times per week, depending on your skin type. Ask your esthetician how often you should exfoliate. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
4) Make sure you have a product with Hyualoronic Acid in your skincare regimen. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
5) Drink more water. Hydrate from the inside out. More water means less breakouts, redness and gives a glow to the skin. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
6) Stop going to the tanning bed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
7) Get your skin glowing with greens. Eat more dark leafy veggies or drink them with juices. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
8) It is <i>never </i>too early to start a good skincare regimen. Treatments with your esthetician only go so far...you must have good home care. Think about if you work out a few times a week but eat like crap...not good results.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
9) Don't squeeze your pimples. Most of the time you are only making it worse...leading to scabbing, scarring, bleeding & inflammation. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
10) Eat and drink your antioxidants. They fight free radicals (the bad guys). Green tea is a great form. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
11) Add a form of retinol to your regimen. Retinol, retin-A, tretinion is a topical form of vitamin A. It desquamates the follicle lining...AKA turns over your skin cells faster. This is a process that slows down as we age...our goal is to speed it back up! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
12) Moisturize your lips. A good cheap way is aquafor....it is amazing for dry, cracked lips.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
13) Add a few drops of liquid chlorophyll to water to combat breakouts.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
14) Oily skin ladies...use salicylic acid, either treatments or in your home care. It dissolves oil & helps with breakouts. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
15) Get an enzyme treatment...I LOVE these. Enzyme treatments help break down the cornfield layer, "opens" pores & softens solified sebum. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
16) Commit to a good daily gentle cleanser. It is also nice to throw a treatment cleanser in 1-3 times a week. I love the Skin Script Glycolic Acid Cleanser.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
17) Use luke warm water when cleansing your skin & showering. Extremely hot water will dry out your skin.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
18) Use an eye cream or serem...prevent those crows feet before they begin. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
19) Get monthly facials, chemical peels or microdermabrasions. It is like a workout for your skin. Also getting monthly treatments helps speed up that cellular turnover rate we talked about earlier. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
20) Use a good mask 1-3 times per week. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
21) Address gut health. Adding a daily probiotic can really help the skin clear up & have a nice glow. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
22) Get a good amount of sleep. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
23) Clean your makeup brushes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
24) Toss your makeup wipes....80% of them are terrible for the skin. Swap these out for micellar cleansing water.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
25) Get a high frequency treatment. High frequency kills bacteria, soothes skin, minimizes redness, decongests puffy eyes, stimulates cell renewal, calms inflammation, speeds up the healing process. This only takes a few minutes and is the bomb for busting breakouts. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
26) You must be using a Vitamin C in your home care regimen. Vitamin C used topically tightens, lightens & brightens the skin. It is packed full of antioxidants leaving a healthy glow. It also protects from sun damage (still need to use a SPF) & helps reverse old damage. Check out one of my favorite Vitamin C products on this blog post ----> <a href="http://skinstudiobymegan.blogspot.com/2016/10/is-clinical-super-serum.html" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
27) Add Omega 3's to your skincare routine to help fight inflammation that leads to breakouts and for a healthy glow. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
28) Don't forget to use skincare products on your neck, chest & hands. They age too!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
29) Peel away pigmentation...don't be afraid of chemical peels. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
30) Give yourself an ice facial. Wrap an ice cube in a paper towels & rub over your face. It helps with redness, decreases the appearance of the pores, decreases breakouts, and gives an amazing glow. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
<br />
<br />
I love a good mask just as much as I love a good exfoliating scrub. Skin Scripts Retinol Exfoliating Scrub/Mask gives me both for the price of one. EVERYONE should be using a form of topical Vitamin A (retinol, retin-A, tretinoin) in their home care skin routine. Why is topical Vitamin A so important to our skin? It helps promote a healthy cellular turnover, unclogs pores, boosts collagen to reduce fine lines, evens discoloration, smothers & resurfaces skin. Most women as soon as early twenties will benefit from adding a retinol product to their routine.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Skin Scripts 2% Retinol Exfoliating Scrub/Mask with Kojic and Malic Acid</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>

Lash Lifts are an amazing service if provided by a great lash artist. A lash lift permanently curls your own natural lash by lifting them up & out. A lift will last until all the lashes fall out naturally (generally 6-12 weeks). We typically shed 1-5 lashes per day. Make sure your lash artist has lots of before & afters showing their work. The biggest problem with lifting lashes is some artists don't separate the lashes on the rod properly. See photo below.<br />

Here are some tips for better lifts:<br />
<br />
-Using a lash growth serum will make your natural lashes longer, thicker & fuller, resulting in a better lift. I love and retail GrandeLash MD $65. If you have short and brittle lashes, use a serum 8 weeks before getting a lift.<br />
<br />
-Do not use waterproof mascara the week of your lift, before the lift & after. It is really tough on the lashes and hard to remove.<br />
<br />
-Avoid wearing eye makeup for 24 hours after the lift.<br />
<br />
-Tinting the lashes (darkens natural lash) will make the lashes appear longer...resulting in a better lift.<br />
<br />
-Don't touch or play with the lashes after the lift.<br />
<br />
AFTERCARE:<br />
<br />
-no steam, heat, saunas, water, oils, lotion, shampoo, face wash, makeup remover wipes for a minimum of 24 hours after the lift. This will cause the lift to fall. Be careful even cooking (boiling water, grill, etc.).<br />
<br />
-try not to side sleep<br />
<br />
-avoid oily face washes, this will cause lift to drop prematurely<br />
<br />
Lashes should always be dried before leaving the appointment. Water will weigh down and cause the lift to drop. I always fan dry clients lashes before they leave.<br />
<br />
<br />
Here are some of my favorite lifts I have personally done at Skin Studio By Megan in Lexington, KY.<br />

Inflammation is part of the bodies immune system. When inflammation is out of control, it can damage the body. Foods with sugar and saturated fat can spark inflammation. We all know inflammation leads to breakouts and makes them worse, as well as other skin conditions. So lets chat about the foods that reduce inflammation. Hit the grocery store and stock up on these items:<br />
<br />
-tomatoes<br />
-olive oil<br />
-green leafy veggies (spinach, kale)<br />
-nuts like almonds and walnuts<br />
-fatty fish (salmon, tuna,sardines)<br />
-celery<br />
-beets<br />
-broccoli<br />
-blueberries<br />
-pineapple<br />
-ginger<br />
-raw oats<br />
-green tea<br />
-dark chocolate<br />
-red peppers<br />
-tumeric<br />
-black beans<br />
<br />
Those are some of my favorites that are easy to add into your diet. Smoothies & juicing can be amazing for reducing inflammation & can combine several anti-inflammatory foods. What are your favorite anti-inflammatory foods? Email me at skinstudiobymegan@gmail.com to chat more.<br />

FAVORITE EVERYDAY CLEANSERS </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
Today's post is all about my top two cleansers that can be used daily without irritating or drying out the skin. With so many cleansers out there it is hard to pick a good one that is full of active ingredients and healthy for our skin. I have tried hundreds on cleansers being an esthetician & using different brands throughout the years. Cleanser is one product that is worth spending some money on and investing in a good quality cleanser. I also have a few favorite treatment cleansers....check out my post on Skin Scripts Glycolic cleanser <a href="http://skinstudiobymegan.blogspot.com/2016/04/treatment-cleansers-17-glycolic-cleanser.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>....but todays post is everyday cleansers. <div>

This is a <i>huge </i>NO NO. I always want to go shame the person who injected them for not explaining after care and what should not be done after injections. This is my inspiration for today's post which is all about treatment timelines. I will put some common treatments down below and give a timeline for before and/or after.<br />
<br />
Botox & Dysport:<br />
<br />
Before- most treatments can be done right before botox...always ask when booking appointment for injections if its okay to do if you recently had a big procedure done<br />
<br />
After- Do not do any treatments of any kind for two weeks after being injected with dysport or botox. Many doctors suggest different time lines but always play it safe for about two weeks post treatment. Getting a facial is definitely not worth getting a droopy eyelid from doing it too soon after getting injected.<br />
<br />
Fillers:<br />
Do not do anything for at least two weeks after fillers. This aftercare is pretty much the same as botox. However, if you still have bruising and swelling I would continue to hold off on treatments like facials, peels or microdermabrasion.<br />
<br />
Microdermabrasion:<br />
<br />
Before- No injections, exfoliating treatments, lasers, or invasive treatments for at least two weeks before. Also hold off on exfoliating products such as scrubs, retin-A, benzoyl peroxide, acne topical products, retinol, or any harsh products for 5-7 days before treatments. If it is your first time getting a Microderm, stop exfoliating at least 7-10 days before.<br />
<br />
After- No harsh exfoliating products, harsh topical creams, or treatments for about a week.Skin Studio By Meganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06910289607234936799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1303166216755064780.post-38307809301739529912017-04-27T11:08:00.000-07:002017-04-27T11:08:03.391-07:00Best Selling Product: Skin Scripts Glycolic/Retinol Pads<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My all time best selling product is Skin Scripts Glycolic/Retinol Pads. These pads are good for every skin type (except sensitive) and help out with so many skin issues. What I love about these pads is how simple they are. Cleanse your skin, then simply wipe the pad all over the face....viola! Simple as that. These pads are designed to gently and progressively renew the skin to provide brightening, clarifying and restoring benefits to all skin types in need of perfecting. The best part is...these bad boys are <i>only </i>$22.50<div>
<br /></div>
<div>

<div>
Hyperpigmentation, melasma, oily & acneic skin. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>How to use:</b></div>
<div>
For pore refinement or acneic skin use 2-3 times per week. </div>
<div>
For melasma or hyperpigmentation, spot treat 2 times per day directly onto pigmentation. Reduce use after pigmentation has lightened. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Benefits:</b></div>
<div>
-lightens pigmentation </div>
<div>

<div>

<div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This product is <i>perfect </i>for those who's skin cannot tolerate prescription retin-A. This still provides the same benefits just in a more gentle way. This product is so simple, so easy, so cheap & provides amazing results. I literally cannot keep these on my shelf. Tip: Clean scissors with rubbing alcohol and cut pads in half to save more product. A half a pad usually will cover my whole face. I also love to use these on my neck, chest & hands. Anywhere that has pigmentation....these pads will go. If you are interested in trying these best seller pads, contact me to get a sample. </div>

<br />
<br />
Face Reality is an acne training program along with products & treatments. Taking this course and becoming an acne specialist has changed the game & help me learn so much about acne. This program is meant to be completed with Face Reality home care, in office treatments every 2 weeks and lifestyle/dietary changes. I wanted to discuss Face Reality peels in todays blog post. I will do another post soon featuring more about the program & home care. Face Reality is proven to get you clear when using home care & in office peels. I cannot guarantee you will get clear if you are only doing the in office treatments. It is crucial to combine these peels with home care. However I do have a few clients who opt to only do the peel & are loving the results. All my clients (and myself) are ranting & raving about these amazing peels. Most of my acne clients love mandelic peels....well this is mandelic & more!<br />
<br />
<b>Why Face Reality peels over other peels? </b><br />
Face Reality peels are strong enough to have the exfoliation, antibacterial & skin lightening properties needed for acne, but gentle enough so the client can continue using their home care the next day. They are self-neutralizing peels that do not need to be washed off and this makes them less irritating.<br />
I have had literally hundreds....probably thousands of chemical peels over the years struggling with acne prone skin. I have found some I love, but non compare to these Face Reality peels. They have also helped out the redness & pigmentation in my skin. I love how I don't have any downtime after (besides maybe a flake or two) & my skin looks fabulous the next day...I also stay oil free afterwards.<br />
<br />
<b>Are Face Reality peels just for acne?</b><br />
Absolutely not. This blend of acids & ingredients is also <i>amazing </i>for anti-aging and for pigmentation.<br />
<br />
<b>After care:</b><br />
Do not use your "active" products (serums or acne med) the night of your treatment. Since the peel is self-neutralizng, do not wash your face for 5-6 hours after.<br />
<br />
<b>How long to be off prescription products or accutane before treatments:</b><br />
Depending on topical prescription products, you need to discontinue 2 weeks before starting Face Reality. Accutane needs to be discontinued for one month prior.<br />
<br />
<b>What is in Face Reality Peels:</b><br />
<b>Acne Peel 1:</b><br />
5 % TCA<br />
5% Mandelic<br />
5% Lactic<br />
blend of azelaic & kojic acids to lighten pigmentation<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Acne Peel 2:</b><br />
7.5% TCA<br />
5% Mandelic<br />
5% Lactic<br />
blend of azelaic & kojic acids to lighten pigmentation<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<b>What is the downtime?</b><br />
With acne peel 1 most clients do not get dry or irritated. If you were to have any "peeling" it would be light flaking, not peeling in big sheets. When you bump up to acne peel 2, you may experience more dryness & slight flaking. This peel is designed for little to no irritation and/or flaking. Just moisturize lots the next few days following.<br />

With summer coming it calls for a blog post on tips & tricks for summer skincare. Although I love being out in the sun at the lake, I also love having no sun damage on my face. Luckily, when you play your cards right....you can enjoy both. Staying proactive and sun smart will save you from sun spots years down the road. Here are some tips and tricks for skincare in the summertime.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1) Exfoliate your dry winter skin away. Although in the summertime we do not want to do deep peels or laser treatments, it is a great time for a light chemical peel or microdermabrasion to remove the dead buildup of skin cells from the dryness of winter. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLyx_BxNZDCXVfgT_pk_ZD13HoUdinz6bC-8fs6VgFOEoaVSTJXtChf2-AwOr8_pUggI3XyzqXy7awLwegMWzb18tekAZm63a9-JuaVrf9Obnr6jMa1KuxlkfJPp1AEv-_3GXqvIxpB14/s1600/high+frequency+.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLyx_BxNZDCXVfgT_pk_ZD13HoUdinz6bC-8fs6VgFOEoaVSTJXtChf2-AwOr8_pUggI3XyzqXy7awLwegMWzb18tekAZm63a9-JuaVrf9Obnr6jMa1KuxlkfJPp1AEv-_3GXqvIxpB14/s320/high+frequency+.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2) Switch your moisturizer: Usually in the summertime it is best to switch your moisturizer from the heavier winter creams to a lighter formula for summertime. I usually switch from Skin Scripts Ageless moisturizer or Acai Berry to the light aloe moisturizer for summer. The others are too heavy in the summertime and leave my skin more oily. Talk to your esthetician if you feel your moisturizer is too heavy this time of year.</span><br />

<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiay5q-Gp_5JudMpXz7RroGGHm9UW2pjuf4C3ebIVViI-_wXhyQYSxauNBmEVsLlh4CUjKwJyGjp5r2NGU4vyFYb-W7E8qhoGEQvrc4tJ3kViyfWoKGr7pbHPnumio5nKRlpLNn6TbuNHk/s1600/light+aloe+.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiay5q-Gp_5JudMpXz7RroGGHm9UW2pjuf4C3ebIVViI-_wXhyQYSxauNBmEVsLlh4CUjKwJyGjp5r2NGU4vyFYb-W7E8qhoGEQvrc4tJ3kViyfWoKGr7pbHPnumio5nKRlpLNn6TbuNHk/s320/light+aloe+.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">3) Toner to cool down: This is my favorite tip. I LOVE Skin Scripts Cucumber Hydration Toner (the one every client says "I love the smell of that" after I spritz it during treatments"). I keep a bottle in my purse during the summer to spritz down and cool off while I am at the lake, pool and beach. Keep it stored in your fridge for an even cooler spritz down. Not only does this refresh your face, it will restore makeup and hydrate your skin at the same time. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">4) Start slow in the sun: Make sure you start going out into the sun in small steps. You do not want to be outside in the sun all day long for this first time & fry like a little piggy. Skin cancer is no joke people. You need to build a tolerance to the sun so you do not damage your skin. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">5) SPF: ALL DAY. EVERY DAY. Apply at least SPF 30 every two hours. I cannot stress this enough. It is so much easier to apply and prevent sun damage over removing it later with treatments & products. Also you are saving your life from skin cancer. I love brush on block. This is a mineral based SPF that you simply brush onto the skin. This translucent powder makes it so simple to reapply my SPF without messing up my makeup. Actually, it helps control my oil every time I apply...win! This is also great for kids & applying in the hairline. Skip the messy sprays with this mineral based sun protection. Get your brush on block at Skin Studio By Megan for $32...refills are $17</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">6) Antioxidants: Don't leave the house without antioxidant protection. A good Vitamin C serum helps protect from dangerous UV rays as well as lighten up pigmentation from previous sun damage. Vitamin C is a <i>must </i>for everyone daily. My favorite are iS Clinical Super Serum, iS Clinical Pro-Heal & Skin Script Vitamin C/Green Tea Serum. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">7) Lash Lift. Lash Tint. Brow Tint:Look a little more "put together" when you are makeup free at the beach, pool, or lake. A lash lift curls your natural lashes making them appear longer & curled. A tint will darken your natural lash giving the appearance of mascara. Tinting your eyebrows will help them look more filled in. This is great for blondes or light hair. Lifts are $65 and will last 6-12 weeks. Get a lift and tint for $85. Eyelash tints alone of $20 and eyebrow tints are $15.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Did you know that the neck shows signs of aging & sun damage before the face? There is nothing worse than a frozen face and a saggy "turkey" neck. The neck along with the back are the most neglected areas of the body. Although I am only 26, I still take good care of my neck & use products to prevent spending fortunes on kybella later on in life...HA. I was beyond thrilled when one of my favorite skincare lines iS Clinical came out with a new product just for the neck. The neck & chest is an area in skincare lines that I really feel is slacking with products. Don't worry ladies and gentlemen, you can also use this on the décolleté and jawline to tighten it all up! </span></div>

I would <i>love </i>to clear up a few differences between lash lifting and lash extensions. Lash extensions have been very popular the past few years & while lash perming has been around for a long time, the new lifting technique is becoming popular. I am going to go over the pros & cons of each as well as some horrific pictures of lash extensions gone wrong. </div>

Lash extensions are beautiful when done correctly. They are also very damaging when done incorrectly. Lash extensions are something that you really need to do research on who you go to. I also think that it is best to see before & after pictures from this lash artist. I cannot tell you how many clients come in with extensions and they look HORRIBLE. I want to cry or go scream at their lash artist. I have also had a few clients who have lost all of their natural eyelashes due to poorly done extensions. I personally do not do extensions due to a bad shoulder & the pain it causes with the long application process. I have done extensions in the past and have gotten them applied to myself. If you are in the Lexington, KY area I have <i>lots </i>of recommendations on who you should go to. Clients who do not know anything about extensions might not know what to look for, or things that are bad in extensions so I hope these pictures clear things up. These are from various lash artists with clients who come in from other artists, these are not the work of the artists name. </div>

You should <b>never </b>have clumps of glue on your extensions. Also, cluster lashes are NOT eyelash extensions and are not supposed to last more than a day or two. If your lash "artist" offers clusters claiming to last longer than a few days, clearly they do not know proper extensions & I do not recommend going to them. HOWEVER volume lashes are okay & give the appearance of fuller lashes. This is where the artists creates "fans" and multiple lashes are applied to your natural lash. This is okay when done by a trained volume lash artist. </div>

Extensions are great for those with short lashes who cannot lift. I also think it is great for clients who want a dramatic look. It saves so much time in the mornings not dealing with mascara. Extensions will last several weeks however they do require fill ins. The application process can be anywhere from 1-3 hours. The cons are they require maintenance, can have bad allergic reactions, long application process, if done incorrectly will cause damage, can cause irritation and they are not very natural. Pros are they look beautiful when done correctly, dramatic, less time spend in AM on makeup, you look great with no makeup, great for special events (weddings, photo shoots,etc.) </div>

<b>LASH LIFTING</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lash lifting is permanently curling your natural lashes until they all shed naturally. Results will last 6-12 weeks. My client average is about 10 weeks between lifts. Lifts are much more natural looking. You can also tint the lashes after your lift if you have lighter lashes to give the appearance of mascara. This will last 4-6 weeks. Lifts are easier for some because they are maintenance free, unlike extensions requiring fill ins every few weeks. Also, I have never had a client have a bad reaction to the lift, with extensions lots are allergic to the glue used and can have an allergic reaction. Lash lifting takes around 30 minutes to an hour. If you have long lashes that criss cross & drive you nuts, lifts can help straighten & position your crazy lashes. I have only had about 5-10 clients who I had to turn away from a lash lift. This is because their lashes were too short for the perm. I always suggest Latisse or GrandeLash MD to help grow your lashes. The pros to lifting are it is maintenance free, no irritation, enhances your natural lashes, looks natural, gives the appearance of longer, fuller lashes. The cons are if the lashes are too short they cannot be lifted and if you are going for a false lash look, you may want to opt for extensions.</div>

This serum is also great at controlling cystic acne. This serum contains safe skin brighteners. This is also AMAZING for stretch marks & scarring.<br />
<br />
Benefits:<br />

EVERYONE should be using a topical Vitamin C Serum...I cannot stress this enough.<br />
