What Is CoolSculpting?

When you first hear about CoolSculpting, it sounds too good to be true. A painless procedure that permanently gets rid of fat in all those stubborn areas in 1-2 treatments? No way. I know there’s doubt in people’s minds because I’m the biggest skeptic out there. But guess what? It works!

Freeze Away Fat?

So let’s talk about how this innovative, non-invasive procedure works. CoolSculpting works by delivering controlled cooling to your fat cells causing them to freeze and die, a process known as cryolipolysis. Your body then naturally eliminates these dead fat cells over time, leaving you feeling more comfortable in your clothes and confident in your appearance.

Because fat cells freeze at a higher temperature than other cells within the body, we can use CoolSculpting to target those stubborn bulges without harming other tissue. 25% of the fat cells in the treated area eliminated with each treatment – permanently! The whole process is easy, painless, and effective.

In Search of the Perfect Brow

Perfect eyebrows have become Perfect EyebrowsTHE hottest beauty trend since teeth whitening. And it’s no wonder – they frame the face and have a way of giving that polished look to your overall appearance. But what if you weren’t blessed with naturally full and perfectly shaped arches??

Microblading:

A new form of semi-permanent makeup will turn even the most pathetic brows into gorgeous works of art, whether you get professional microblading in Hull or anywhere else in the world. Also known as eyebrow embroidery and feathering, this procedure is used to reconstruct lost eyebrows, re-build thin brows, or just enhance existing brows. The best part? It looks completely natural and lasts up to 18 months!

Unlike traditional cosmetic tattooing, microblading uses individual strokes to create realistic-looking “hairs”, as opposed to blocks of color. It’s become popular all over the world, with a lot of celebrities sampling some of the best Microblading London has to offer.

You can choose to do it yourself by getting something like Girlz Ink microblading supplies online, but by leaving it to the professionals, our highly skilled and certified microblading technicians carefully map out the perfect eyebrow shape. You can customize the color using only the finest non-toxic, stable, insoluble, and antiseptic pigments. A non-motorized tool called a microblade scratch the outer layer of the skin, allows these specially developed pigments to absorbed. The whole process takes about 2.5-3 hours and voila! Realistic, flawless brows that won’t wash off or fade away.

While microblading may not be for everyone, it is a truly amazing breakthrough in the cosmetic industry. So maybe you’re sick of filling in your wispy brows or tired of drawing on new ones each morning. Or maybe you just want your arches to be the envy of all who see them. Whatever the reason, microblading might just be the treatment you’ve been searching for.

Is Mineral Makeup Really Worth It?

There has been a lot of buzz around mineral makeup in the beauty and skincare industry for the past decade with more and more companies such as Indie Lee, developing their own brands or improving what they already have. You can find mineral makeup in departments stores both physically and online (and, thanks to places like this site, you may even be able to save money when purchasing it). But what exactly is mineral makeup?

In the most basicMineral Makeup terms, mineral makeup refers to cosmetics that do not contain chemicals, dyes, and preservatives found in traditional makeup. However, my definition is a bit more specific. True, high-quality mineral makeup should be comprised of pure micronized minerals and should not contain talc, petroleum, alcohol, or fragrance. The ingredients should make the products naturally anti-inflammatory, non-comedogenic, non-acnegenic, and non-irritating. The naturally sourced pigments should provide true colors with excellent, lasting coverage. Oh, and throw in some mineral-based sun protection for good measure.

Ingestible Collagen: A Revolutionary Skin Breakthrough

Why is collagen important?

Collagen is a protein that gives skin structure and strength, firmness, and elasticity. As we age, the rate at which we produce collagen slows down by about 1% each year after the age of 25, while the rate at which collagen is destroyed increases. This leads to fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin.

To increase collagen production within the skin we recommend getting professional resurfacing procedures and a home care regimen that includes retinol, peptides, and antioxidants. In addition to treating collagen with topical methods, there is evidence to support that ingesting hydrolyzed collagen further boosts the collagen levels within the skin.YANA Daily Collagen Shots

Hydrolyzed collagen is a protein that has been broken down into tiny fragments, allowing for better absorption by the body. Once absorbed, the collagen levels in the skin increase thereby decreasing fine lines and wrinkles and improving skin elasticity, hydration, and roughness.

2021 Top Ten Skin Care Resolutions

If you are worried about your skin care and your beauty, these recommendations for healthy, beautiful skin in 2021 help you for healthy skin.

  1. Wear SPF 30 every day

90% of all visible aging comes from sun damage. Protecting your skin daily will help keep it looking younger and healthier, while reducing your risk of skin cancer.

  1. Quit Smoking

Smoking accelerates the aging process within the skin, which leads to more wrinkling, sagging, and discoloration. It can also help if you need to take a drug test for a job, as some will not allow smokers to work for them, which can improve your skin due to reduced stress. Quitting smoking can be difficult, but there are ways to make it easier on your road to healthier skin. Many use vapes to help them stop the unhealthy habit, and with a variety of great-tasting vape liquids, this should be a simple transition. You can shop with them here if you’re interested to stop smoking through vaping.

  1. Eat Clean

A healthy, nutrient-dense diet will result in a youthful, radiant complexion. Eating clean has been shown to improve acne, rosacea, and eczema.

  1. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate

Want skin that glows? Drink water! We recommend drinking half your body weight in ounces for ideal hydration.

  1. Reduce sugar & caffeine

Sugar causes inflammation which can aggravate acne and rosacea. It also can cause collagen and elastin fibers to become brittle which leads to premature aging. Caffeine is a diuretic and will dehydrate your skin if you’re not consuming enough water.

  1. Relax

Stress causes the release of hormones such as cortisol and testosterone, which can aggravate a number of skin conditions including acne, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, hives, etc . Speaking of psoriasis, although there is no cure for this so far, some people may opt to use products such as nano glutathione liquid, in the hopes of improving the symptoms and managing it better than before. As well as this, it would also be beneficial to find ways to relieve stress too, as this could help. Stress may also accelerate cellular destruction which leads to premature aging. Perhaps some people who fear that their stress is beginning to impact their skin could consider getting some help from Diamond Hemp. By doing that, individuals could learn about how some people are using hemp cosmetics to relieve their stress and improve their skin. Perhaps that might be worth trying.

  1. Exercise

Committing to a regular exercise routine will increase circulation to the skin, reduce the levels of stress hormones, and increase endorphin levels. This all leads to a beautiful, more youthful complexion.

  1. Wash your face every night

Remove dirt, oil, makeup, and pollutants that accumulate on your skin throughout the day.

  1. Sleep

Try to get at least 7 hours of sleep each night. Insufficient sleep will lead to accelerated aging and a reduction in your skin’s ability to repair itself.

  1. Invest in your skin

Fashion trends come and go, but great skin never goes out of style. Do yourself a favor and consult a qualified skin care professional to determine the best products and treatments for your skin type and concerns.

Too Young For Botox? Maybe Not.

When it comes to cosmetic procedures, the commonly held beliefaxle is to wait until you have signs of aging before beginning treatment. However, it is far more effective to start treating the skin early to prevent fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, and loss of elasticity and volume. We encourage people to stay out of the sun, quit smoking, and adopt an age management skin care program by the age of 25 because it is easier to prevent premature aging than to correct it. There is even evidence to support the use of Botox early on to prevent or delay the development of fine lines and wrinkles caused by muscular contraction.
