5 Tips for Using Retinol 500 333 Facercise

5 Tips for Using Retinol

retinolWinter is the perfect time of year to add retinol to your beauty routine. Retinol is a vitamin A-derivative with powerful anti-aging effects that can dramatically change the appearance and texture of your skin. Regular use results in a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, large pores, acne scars, hyperpigmentation and “sun spots.”

Our Retinol Skin Conditioner is one of our best-sellers! While our products are mild, some retinols can cause dryness and irritation. Read on to learn five tips for using retinol effectively without any of these issues.

1. Start With a Gentle Product

It’s important to slowly introduce retinol to your regimen. Avoid starting with a prescription retinoid, as these can be too harsh on skin. Using a non-prescription retinol like Luxe Retinol Serum is the safest, most gentle way to achieve results without irritation.

2. Go Slow

When you add retinol to your skin care program, don’t use it every night from the get-go. Retinol is a biologically active ingredient that needs a slow introduction. Start by using it every other night during the first week. On the second week, use it two nights in a row and take the third night off. Repeat. If your skin is extra sensitive, you may want to start off using it twice a week and then stepping up to every other night the following week. Follow either of these programs for the first three to four weeks and then you can add retinol in to your routine five to seven nights per week, depending on how your skin reacts to it. If you do experience any irritation or redness, cut back.

3. Apply to Dry Skin

For best results, wait 20 to 30 minutes after washing your face before applying a retinol product.

4. Wear Sunscreen Daily

Retinols make your skin more photosensitive, so be sure to apply sunscreen every single day. Sunlight can also render them ineffective, so if you don’t protect your skin from the sun, you’ll waste all that good product!

5. Moisturize Wisely

Many people apply moisturizer on top of their retinol. If you plan to do this, make sure the retinol absorbs a minimum of 20 minutes. If you apply moisturizer immediately, it will dilute the retinol and reduce its effectiveness.

5 Tips to Glow for the Holidays 500 333 Facercise

5 Tips to Glow for the Holidays

facial exercisesIf you do facial exercises daily, your skin is already glowing! But there is no such thing as too much glow, which is why I’m sharing some tips to maximize your beautiful self. The tips below will help you look gorgeous for all your holiday events and beyond.

1. Beauty Sleep

Adequate sleep is a must during the holidays! When you skimp on sleep, your skin gets dull and dark circles form. Your skin rejuvenates and repairs itself while you rest, which is why so many popular anti-aging products are designed for nighttime use. Figure out how much sleep you need on a nightly basis, make a schedule and stick to it.

2. Facial Exercises

Facercise firms and tightens your skin while imparting a healthy, youthful glow. Do facial exercises twice a day to prevent the signs of aging and improve your skin’s health. If time is an issue, the Ultimate Facercise DVD includes an eight-minute superset that is easy to squeeze in.

3. Exercise

This time of year can be hectic, which makes it tempting to ditch your exercise regimen for the season. Don’t do it! Regular workouts throughout the holidays make a big difference in your sanity and appearance. When you prioritize your workouts during the holidays, you’ll reduce stress and be less apt to gain weight. Exercise stimulates blood circulation—which makes your skin glow—and boosts endorphins so you’re happier.

4. Get Masking

Masks are an excellent way to boost your skin’s radiance. Our Face Lift to Go is an enzymatic treatment that lifts, firms and imparts an unrivaled glow. Use it once a week or every 10 days—esecially on the day of holiday events—for vibrant, beautiful skin.

5. Hydrate Properly

Drink plenty of water and avoid caffeine to prevent dehydration and dull skin. If you consume alcohol at holiday events, have a glass of water in between each drink and practice moderation.

Follow these tips and try Facercise, our life-changing system of facial exercises, to maintain a beautiful glow all year long.

7 Anti-Inflammatory Foods 500 333 Facercise

7 Anti-Inflammatory Foods

Facial exercisesThe buzz these days is all about an anti-inflammatory diet—and for good reason. Following an anti-inflammatory diet is an excellent way to improve your overall health and combat the signs of aging. Many doctors tout this type of diet because it can reduce blood triglycerides, decrease the risk of high blood pressure and prevent cardiovascular disease. Anti-inflammatory diets have been shown to improve physical recovery time and reduce the risk of many chronic illnesses and diseases. Eating anti-inflammatory foods is also an excellent complement to a good skincare program and regimen of anti-aging facial exercises.

While there are many different anti-inflammatory diets to choose from, there are several types of food that can be found in most. Most doctors recommend avoiding processed foods and those high in refined sugars and simple carbs. Read on for a few foods that will help you fight inflammation in your body.

1. Water

Proper hydration definitely helps your body fight off inflammation and flush out the toxins. If you get bored simply drinking water, switch it up with lemon water, honey water and green tea to up your antioxidant ante.

2. Leafy Greens

Dark leafy greens such as spinach, broccoli, collard greens and kale contains high levels of dietary fiber and a rich content of vitamins and minerals that fight inflammation, such as iron, calcium and an array of phytochemicals.

3. Fatty Fish

Oily fish that are high in omega-43 fatty acids are a great choice for your health, skin and waistline. Try to eat several servings of salmon, mackerel, tuna or sardines each week.

4. Nuts

Loaded with fiber, vitamin e and some healthy fat, nuts are a great way to satiate your diet and reduce inflammation. Almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews and walnuts are all great choices.

5. Whole Grains

Swap out white bread, pasta and rice for whole-grains that are fiber-rich. They will fill you up without spiking your blood sugar levels like “white” breads and other products.

6. Peppers

Bell peppers are the perfects example of colorful veggies that increase your antioxidant consumption and reduce inflammation. They are very rich in anti-aging antioxidants like vitamin A (from beta-carotene), C, E, and B6.

7. Berries

Berries are loaded with vitamin C and antioxidants that can significantly decrease inflammation. The darker the berry, the higher the antioxidant content, but all are good choices.

What Dermatologists Recommend for Younger Looking Skin 500 309 Facercise

What Dermatologists Recommend for Younger Looking Skin

facial exercisesOnce we hit a certain age, there are staple products to use and regimens to follow to maintain a beautiful appearance. Below is a list that some of the top dermatologists in the world recommend that we should all start by age 40. We say it’s never too early to start fighting the signs of aging—especially with natural solutions like facial exercises—so start them now, whatever your age!

Always Wear Sunscreen

Most dermatologists claim that if they were stuck on a desert island and could only have one product, it would be sunscreen! Since sun damage is the culprit behind everything from hyperpigmentation and melasma to wrinkles and freckles, sunscreen is essential, rain or shine. Apply one with an SPF of 30 or more, like our Protective Sunblock, and re-apply throughout the day.

Treat Your Neck and Decollete

One of the most neglected areas for women of all ages is the neck and decollete. This region can be a dead giveaway for lack of care. Give these areas the same attention you give your face, including moisturizer and sunscreen.

Incorporate Antioxidants

Dermatologists claim that antioxidants are a must-have once you hit 40. Incorporate them into your diet and product regimen to enjoy their wide-ranging benefits. The antioxidants found in both food and certain products help combat free radical damage, promote collagen production, decrease inflammation, and reduce the signs of photoaging.

Use Retinol

Research shows that products that contain retinoids, like our Luxe Retinol Serum, provide next level exfoliation while restoring volume and elasticity. Retinol also helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by increasing collagen production and slowing its breakdown. This vitamin A derivative unclogs pores, increases firmness and elasticity,reduces inflammation, and helps reduce dark spots and hyperpigmentation by slowing the production of melanin. 

Exercise Both Face and Body

Exercise has been proven to slow down the signs of aging and boost overall health. It improves circulation, prompting delivery of oxygen-rich blood to skin cells. Exercise also releases endorphins, which promotes a better mood and reduces stress.

Facercise

Just like exercises boosts circulation, so does Facercise. Daily facial exercises boost collagen to maintain elasticity, stimulate the lymphatic system, define facial contours and boost cellular regeneration.

What are you waiting for? Start practicing facial exercises today for beautiful, youthful looking skin.

5 Reasons to Quit Smoking 500 334 Facercise

5 Reasons to Quit Smoking

facial exercisesIt’s always shocking when we find out that one of our clients who does facial exercises religiously is a smoker. There is no better way to expedite the signs of aging than with tobacco smoke. From smoker’s lines around the mouth to a dull complexion, the effects of smoking are severely aging. Read on for motivation to quit this nasty, aging habit.

1. A Dull Complexion

Fresh glowing skin is dependent on the delivery of oxygen-rich blood to its cells. Tobacco smoke is loaded with nicotine and carbon monoxide which slows circulation. This diminishes the supply of oxygen to skin cells and result in a dull, grey tone. Smoking also increases the appearance of blood vessels while depleting important nutrients, like vitamin C, an antioxidant that brightens skin.

2. Under Eye Issues

Research shows that smokers experience diminished sleep quality while tobacco unleashes oxidative stress on the skin. This combination causes dark circles, puffy eyes and unsightly bags.

3. Yellow Teeth

Yellow teeth is a dead giveaway of a smoking habit. Nicotine stains teeth an unsightly yellow or brown, raises the risk of gum disease and can lead to tooth loss.

4. Smoker’s Lines

Smoking’s repetitive movements cause vertical lip lines, aka “Smoker’s Lines,” that are very difficult to get rid of.

5. Deep Wrinkles

Smoking slows circulation and constricts the blood vessels which cuts off skin’s oxygen supply. This dehydrates skin and breaks down collagen, leading to a deepening of fine lines and wrinkles and diminished elasticity.

6. General Havoc

Smoking cigarettes causes infections and skin disorders, slows down wound healing and causes premature aging. Spend the money you use to buy cigarettes to get take better care of your skin.

Quit smoking now! Keep yourself busy by doing Facercise every day instead of reaching for that pack of cigarettes. Our proprietary system of facial exercises will takes 10 years off your looks!

5 Benefits of Healthy Fats 500 500 Facercise

5 Benefits of Healthy Fats

Omega-3 fatty acids are a game changer for beauty, anti-aging and overall health. We’ve always been an advocate of polyunsaturated fatty acids for the hydration they provide in addition to a host of other benefits. A diet with a good balance of antioxidants and healthy fats is the perfect complement to a consistent Facercise regimen.

Our bodies can’t produce these essential fatty acids naturally, so it’s essential to add them to your diet. Some excellent sources include avocado, eggs, coconuts, tuna, mackerel, sardines, herring, dark chocolate and extra virgin olive oil. Nuts like walnuts, almonds, Brazil nuts and macadamia nuts are also great sources of healthy fats.

Read on for five benefits of incorporating omega-3 fatty acids into your diet.

1. A Good Mood

Much research shows that a diet rich in healthy fats can boost your mood and reduce stress levels. Less stress = less wrinkles!

2. A Youthful Glow

Healthy fats reduce inflammation to promote clearer skin and less breakouts. They also moisturize the skin from the inside out, which helps impart a healthy glow. Omega-3 fatty acids are responsible for cellular membrane health—this membrane is important since it shields your skin from scavengers like free radicals and environmental stressors. Healthy fats also promote healthy levels of collagen and elastin, the proteins responsible for skin’s firmness and elasticity.

3. Soft, Shiny Hair

Polyunsaturated fatty acids hydrate hair follicles to help it grow stronger and fuller while imparting a beautiful shine.

4. Maximized Function

Healthy fats help your systems function optimally. A diet that incorporates polyunsaturated fatty acids improves digestion, muscle activity, brain function, circulation, cellular growth and fertility.

5. Heart Health

Omega-3s have been shown to promote a healthy cardiovascular health. Many studies also show that they can help decrease the risk of various illnesses and diseases.

Incorporate healthy fats to boost firmness and impart a healthy glow while lowering bad cholesterol and boosting Facercise results.

Top 5 Benefits of Vitamin C Complex Serum 400 266 Facercise

Top 5 Benefits of Vitamin C Complex Serum

facial exercisesMany clients use Vitamin C Complex Serum in conjunction with our system of facial exercises to keep wrinkles at bay. A topical vitamin C serum is an ideal way to keep skin looking bright and youthful while fighting damage caused by aging and the environment. Once you add it to your anti-aging arsenal, you will see enviable results within a matter of weeks.

Vitamin C Complex Serum delivers a highly concentrated form of vitamin C to your skin in the most effective, efficient way possible. Serums are more rapidly absorbed and penetrate more deeply than creams, which means faster, better results. Regular use will help you attain healthy, radiant, younger looking skin.

Read on to learn the top five benefits of incorporating Vitamin C Complex Serum into your regimen.

1. Vitamin C Boosts Collagen Production

Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that binds our cells together. It provides structure and is responsible for the elasticity and plumpness of our skin. As we age, its natural production slows down and results in fine lines and wrinkles. Using a topical vitamin C serum stimulates collagen production to combat wrinkles, impart radiance and improve texture.

2. Vitamin C Complex Serum Brightens the Skin

Sun damage and aging can result in uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation and sun spots. Vitamin C Complex Serum acts as a natural, gentle bleaching agent that brightens and lightens these types of discolorations. It can even improve dark circles under the eyes.

3. Vitamin C Protects Against Sun Damage

Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that can protect against UV damage by strengthening the skin barrier and thickening the dermis. While it helps reduce sun damage, it should be used in conjunction with sunscreen.

4. Vitamin C Complex C Serum Combats Free Radicals

Vitamin C’s antioxidant power protects against the aging effects of free radical damage.

5. Vitamin C Promotes Healing

Dermatologists often recommend the use of topical vitamin C to enhance cosmetic treatments and expedite healing. With its powerful anti-inflammatory properties, vitamin C can help heal wounds, scars and other conditions.

5 Ways to Fight Sugar-Related Aging 500 334 Facercise

5 Ways to Fight Sugar-Related Aging

facial exercisesThe three-pronged approach I recommend for fighting the signs of aging includes using good products, daily facial exercises and following a healthy diet. What always surprises me is that many people don’t take diet into consideration. Diet definitely impacts your skin—especially when you eat too much sugar and simple carbs. When there is too much sugar in your bloodstream, a nasty process called glycation occurs. Glycation causes the sugars you consume to produce advanced glycation end products (AGEs).

The high blood sugar levels that set the stage for AGEs causes our bodies and skin to age faster. The formation of AGEs leads to the breakdown of collagen and elastin, the essential protein fibers that gives our skin its firmness and elasticity. AGEs also cause age spots and hyperpigmentation, dull skin tone, inflammation, fine lines, wrinkles, and the thickening and sagging of skin. Exposure to ultraviolet rays expedites glycation, further increasing the appearance of the signs of aging.

Below are some five ways to combat AGEs and boost the results of daily facial exercises.

1. Cut Down on Sugar

Skip sugary sweets and simple carbs, which convert to sugar in your bloodstream, as much as possible. Load up on lean protein and fiber to help fill you up so you don’t have hunger pangs. If you have a sweet tooth, opt for a piece of fruit to curb that evil craving.

2. Attain and Maintain a Healthy Weight

Studies show that weight gain can contribute to the formation AGEs. Strive to reach and maintain a healthy weight for your size.

3. Wear Sunscreen

Since exposure to the sun’s rays bolsters the formation of AGEs, wear sunscreen every single day. Wear it on your face, neck, décolletage, arms, legs, hands—basically anywhere that is at risk for sun exposure.

4. Do Strength or Resistance Training

One of the pitfalls of aging is that we naturally lose muscle mass, which can boost blood sugar levels and lead to more AGEs formation. Strength and resistance training is awesome because it helps your rebuild muscles. The greater your lean muscle mass, the more glucose your muscles consume.

5. Limit Alcohol Consumption

Alcohol can convert to sugar in your body and also boosts glycation. Limit your alcohol intake and avoid sugar-laden mixers altogether.

These tips combined with a daily Facercise practice will improve your skin health and help you look and feel younger!

6 Skin Care Tips for Transitioning to Fall 500 333 Facercise

6 Skin Care Tips for Transitioning to Fall

facial exerciseWhile Fall brings relief from the hot summer sun, it’s not time slow down on daily sunscreen, skin care and facial exercises. Humidity and moisture may dissipate this time of year, which means we need to compensate and adjust our skin care regimes. Below are some tips to help you transition your routine during this seasonal change so you can maintain happy skin and a youthful glow.

1. Start the Season with a Facial

Slough dead skin cells from the summer with an in-spa facial to start the season right. This will prep your skin for cooler and possibly harsher weather. Plus, it gives you time to relax and pamper yourself. If you can’t make it to the spa, do a Face Lift to Go at home.

2. Incorporate Vitamin C

Now is an ideal time to add vitamin C into your routine, both with supplements and skin care products. Brighten up your skin with a rich vitamin C serum such as our Vitamin C Complex serum. It helps remove sun spots and hyperpigmentation that developed during the summer months and prevents future damage. Apply it to your face, neck, décolletage, and hands every morning.

3. Retinol

At night, shed dead skin cells and prevent the signs of aging with retinol, a potent derivative of vitamin A. This will help undo some of the signs of aging, even out skin tone and impart a healthy glow. My Luxe Retinol Serum is an excellent choice—it’s gentle and super effective.

4. Change Cleansers

When the climate changes, you may want to switch to a richer, creamier cleanser such as my Creamy Milk Cleanser. It is milder on your skin so that you avoid the irritation that might be caused by a harsher cleanser or one with exfoliant properties.

5. Use a Richer Moisturizer

As the air becomes cooler and drier, you may need to use a richer moisturizer to enhance the skin’s protective barrier. It’s a good time to opt for a product like my Ultra Hyaluronic Cream as it attracts significant moisture to your skin. Studies show it can increase moisture up to 300 percent!

6. Protect Your Lips

Often times, we experience dry, chapped lips due to colder weather. Protect your skin with a hydrating lip balm with SPF during the day—it serves as an excellent base for your lipstick or lip gloss. At night, apply vitamin E oil to rehydrate and combat free radical damage.

There is no better time than the Fall to try our life-changing system of facial exercises and advanced skin care products.
