Netflix & skin care

• February 16, 2020

Hello babes, up for a little Netflix and chill? Just admit it: in this weather, after a long week what’s better than spending a few hours relaxing with your favorite show?

The perfect night-in would not be complete without adding to it a bit of pampering. So while you’re chilling on the sofa or cozy under the covers, it’s time to let your skin soak up some happiness. We’ve got our favorite series and our favorite facial treatments lined up.

So cancel everything else because tonight is for Netflix & skin care!
Let’s sit comfortably, pillows, snuggly blanket, and chamomile tea.
Ok. Time to indulge.

SKIN CARE PRODUCT #1: Retinol cream.
Whenever you have time to leave a product on, it will allow your skin to absorb the most benefits from the skin care. A powerful wrinkle-fighting cream with Retinol will be perfect now.

This can strengthen the skin to help resist the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and any sign of aging.

SKIN CARE PRODUCT #2: Purifying mask.
One of the easiest and most versatile skin care products to use is a face mask. So since you have some time to sit down, it’s a perfect opportunity to let a mask work magic on your face. There are so many types with endless benefits that we can’t help but love them all. If you feel like your skin has lost its glow, a good mask will clean up the pollution and reduce the build-up of dead skin cells.

From charcoal, to clay, to rose and honey, always choose the most natural ingredients and the least chemical additives.

Just have your pick and leave it on for a good fifteen minutes, then gently rinse off with lukewarm water. Glow guaranteed. Don’t forget that we gently dab at our skin to dry it off, we never rub it.

SKIN CARE PRODUCT #3: Try a balm.
Balms have a smooth texture and absorb without any shiny residue. It will go to work immediately to renew damaged cells and strengthen the skin’s layers, revealing healthy glowing skin.

Rich in vitamins and antioxidants, it is especially useful in the dry winter months.

Apply a silky balm on your face, neck, chest, and hands—basically everywhere you need a little extra nourishment, and let your skin soak it in.

SKIN CARE PRODUCT #4: Peel pads.
Surely you’ve been seeing them in ads all over the internet, and justly so they are a great new product to try. Peel pads are made with glycolic acid which is the most popular ingredient to clear out pores, hydrate and brighten the skin. This brightening treatment is a very smooth acid peeling that will reveal your skin’s glow.

Used on a cleansed face, you can apply it many times a week depending on your skin (better check with Dr. Costi for that).

As always after any acid peel your skin might become sensitive to light, so make sure that you apply sunscreen the next day.

EXTRA CARE PRODUCT: How about a hair mask?
While we’re taking extra care of our face, we might forget to pamper our hair.
Just touch your hair right now, if the edges are not silky smooth it means you need a mask. A hair mask is the easiest hair treatment to apply at home, as you only have to put it on, forget about it for an hour, and then rinse it off. In case your hair needs the extra moisture, you can also leave the mask on all night by wrapping your hair in a hair cap or a towel.

So how was your favorite show? As much as you enjoy binge watching, now you can add to it the benefit of a good skin product and voila! No more guilty feelings about spending those delicious moments in bed.
Cheers to a good show and ever renewing skin!
