Before you can get started with a facial treatment, however, you will need to make sure that you have a certain level of experience in dealing with facial skin. This is especially true for individuals who opt for the at-home facial treatment because it can be quite challenging to know how to go about the first step if you are not an expert.

Treating facial skin requires patience and diligence. You shouldn’t expect to accomplish overnight results or even see them when you look in the mirror. The only way to truly tell whether or not your facial treatment is working is by having it regularly performed by a licensed professional.

Treatment is recommended by many professionals in this industry.*

To get professional results from your at-home facial treatment, follow these tips:

1. Exfoliate before using any kind of skin care product. You should exfoliate your face once every two days – two or three times per week should be fine – and you should use a scrub that contains either lactic acid or glycolic acid. Alternatively, you could also choose a scrub that contains both lactic acid and glycolic acid, which is known as a “dual action” scrub.

2. Make sure that your skin is properly hydrated before applying the actual product

I know I promised last week that I would write again soon with an update on how my at-home facial was turning out, but it’s been a crazy week!

So, here’s what’s happened…

I started my first at-home facial treatment last Thursday evening. The directions said to put the lotion on, leave it on for about 15 minutes, and then wash it off with warm water. As I was applying it to my face, though, I felt like something was missing. The directions didn’t say anything about massaging the lotion into your face. So, I started doing that. That made the whole experience feel much more luxurious. Then I got to thinking: “this at-home facial is supposed to be as good as a professional facial, right?” so I figured there must be something else in addition to applying the lotion and letting it soak in for 15 minutes that was supposed to make it just as good as a professional facial.

I got to thinking about how professionals always spend a little extra time massaging your face after they apply their lotions and creams — except they charge you $200 or $300 extra for that at the spa! So, I decided this at-home facial just wasn’t going to cut

Facial treatments have become a part of the regimen for anyone looking to improve their looks. There are various procedures that can be done at home and in the spa, and they are used by people of all ages. The benefits of facial treatments are numerous, and many of them are geared toward improving the overall look of your skin.

At-home facial treatments can be used in conjunction with professional facial treatments, or they can be used on their own. It is up to you to determine which facial treatment works best for your needs.

GLYCOLIC ACID 10%, 20% AND 30%. Glycolic acid is also used in chemical peels, which are performed by a doctor or esthetician. Glycolic acid works best on skin that is younger, without fine lines and wrinkles. Some people tolerate glycolic acid well and others do not. You may experience redness, stinging, or tenderness when using glycolic acid. If you experience any of these effects you should discontinue use immediately and consult your doctor.

It seems like every other week there’s a new study in the news about how chemicals are bad for your skin. From parabens found in makeup and lotions to phthalates in shower curtains to triclosan in antibacterial soap it seems like we’re being told one thing after another will give us cancer.

I can’t help but be reminded of the story of the Emperor’s New Clothes, where the Emperor was paraded around naked by tailors who claimed to have made him a suit of clothes that only he could see. We’ve been so inundated with all this “research” about how bad our products are for us that I can’t help but wonder if we’re headed for a similar fate: everyone claiming their product

I’m as interested in the science of beauty as anyone else. I’m not sure how much science there is, but I do know that the world needs more beauty.

Beauty is a combination of scientific knowledge and art skills. The first step to getting beautiful is understanding what’s going on scientifically (I guess this would be considered a “science” blog then). The second step is to develop your skills. This is where blogging comes in.

Celery seed, also known as Apium graveolens, is a spice that can be used to help reduce inflammation and redness while improving skin texture. It can be found in most grocery stores. In addition to reducing the appearance of wrinkles, celery seed extract can help reduce the appearance of acne scarring. It is also used to treat psoriasis and eczema.

Celery seed contains magnin, three flavonoids and two lignans. It is high in polyphenols and it’s believed these antioxidants work to keep skin looking young.*

Antioxidants are thought to slow down the aging process of the skin by protecting it from free radical damage. Free radicals are produced from both internal (aging) and external sources (the sun) and cause oxidative stress on the skin.*

When we think of anti-aging treatments, we usually think of creams or lotions containing retinol or alpha hydroxy acid (AHA). These ingredients are designed to increase cell turnover in the outer layers of the skin.*

There aren’t any studies proving celery seed extract works better than other anti-aging ingredients, but it certainly can’t hurt.*

In order for it to work effectively you’ll need a good moisturizer
