Ready, Set, Glow!
A couple of days ago I blogged about oxygen facials and promised that I'd return with commentary on exfoliation.
Exfoliating removes dead skin cells that build up on the surface of the skin and leave your complexion looking dull. You can get really great results with medical-grade exfoliation (microdermabrasion), especially if you have mild acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, or large pores you want to minimize. (See our full story for your options at www.itkbeauty.com/digital. Also check out microdermabrasion on our Website: www.cosmeticsurgerytimes.com/microdermabrasion)
For those of you who are do-it-yourselfers or if you want to try out a product at home that will really deliver great results, I've got just the thing: Dr. Brandt's Microdermabrasion. Not your ordinary exfoliator with ground apricot seeds, but a product with magnesium oxide crystals that polish away dead skin cells, revealing fresh, pink, radiant skin.
No kidding!
I've been using this every three days for two weeks now, and I've never gotten results like this with any other exfoliator.
If you're used to using run-of-the-mill exfoliators, you may find this a little rough feeling on the skin. The problem with most exfoliators is that when you apply it to damp skin (as is usually the instruction), it becomes diluted and you really don't get much of a scrub going on. With this product, it's such a fine consistency, and one that doesn't just disappear when it gets wet, that it actually does what it's supposed to!
Have sensitive skin? Me, too. But despite the mild discomfort, I've had no other skin reactions.
$75 at Amazon, Sephora, and other online retailers.
