I have to comment….who wants to shave every day? Nobody that I know of. We have done countless Brazilian waxes. Do you know what a Brazilian waxing service consists of? The Brazilian waxing service consists of the entire frontal pubic area and the labia (the lips) and the back of the buttocks and everything in between. I know it may be uncomfortable to hear but when you need to be clean and ready for vacation you do what it takes. We have a numbing cream that will help reduce the pain but it won’t take it away totally. It makes it more bearable.
So, with that being said I want to offer some suggestions to have a successful waxing service. First of all come in after a fresh shower to keep your private areas clean. Do not use a harsh detergent to scrub because this may make your areas more sensitive and we know that pulling the hair out by the root is quick by not painless. the same goes for all other body parts. We will apply a light antiseptic, the some powder so the wax and the strip will adhere and it pulls off more efficiently. Any questions? send me your questions here as a comment and I will be happy to answer them.
Now shaving. Shaving is a low cost at home that normally you can use a soap and you know that I recommend our goats milk soaps that are so gentle on the skin that shaving is a glide. Always rinse thoroughly so you don’t leave anything left behind and use a moisturizer that will protect your skin and moisturize after this major exfoliation. If you have to choose between a shave and a wax, we recommend the waxing because it lasts up to 3 weeks sometimes longer if your hair doesn’t grow in as quickly. Leave the hair grow out to about 1/4″ so that the waxing specialist has something to grip. Enjoy more free time with your waxing service.
As society is ever changing, one “accessory” that is here to stay is our cell phone. Once attached at our hip, it is usually now attached to our ears. You can’t walk very far without seeing a passing stranger talking incessantly on her cell phone.
Although it is convenient, cell phone radio waves may have a huge affect on the quality of not just our skin, but our health. In an article, written by Sue Mueller of Foodconsumer.org, Mueller writes that a study in Finland showed that radio frequency could be a contributor of altered proteins in our skin. Additionally, according to BioMedCentral.com, “radio waves could also be a factor of sleep disorders, headaches, or allergy-like symptoms.” Cancer is the big discussion after all. So many studies are underway to determine the affects of radio waves on skin and its ability to cause cancer.
Although there does not seem to be enough sufficient proof that cell phone radio waves are the main cause all of these physiological concerns, it does seem to make sense that issues would arise from our need to be on our tellys 24/7.
It doesn’t seem that the outcome is good either way. Radio waves, TV waves, Cell waves…they all could be main contenders in our battle with Cancer and other health issues.
Until we have some invention that prevents radio waves from accessing the proteins and cells in our bodies, we certainly shouldn’t brush this under the rug. Be aware of how often you are on the phone. Turn it off when you can do without it. Spend more time with family and friends and leave the phone at home.
Are fine lines just a sign of dryness? see if dryness is magnifying your creases take a simple test: Apply a moisture Masque such as Guinot Hydra Mask and leave it on for the recommended time. When you rinse it off, does your skin look fresher? fuller? smoother? If it does look better than your skin was dehydrated. If it doesn’t look any different,your lines then are age related. I know that stinks but you can add some wrinkle fighting retinol, peptides or antioxidants into your routine. A wrinkle serum such as Guinot Age Logic Cellular Renewal is benefitial to helping to reduce the size of wrinkles and minimize them.
Do you really have sensitive skin? More than 40% of Americans “believe” they do but not all of the self Doctoring proves true. Dermatologists check for the condition in part by asking a series of question such as:
Does your skin typically turn red and blotchy when irritated?
Is it prone to allergic reactions?
Does your skin burn easily in the sun and windburn when outside?
Does it flush from changes in temperatures both hot and cold?
Is it dry, delicate and thin almost translucent?
When you are at home, study your face in a magnifying mirror preferrably with a light so you can see close up. The pores of sensitive skin tend to look pink due to inflammation. This little clue was mentioned by Dr. Dennis Gross, MD, a cosmetic dermatologist in New York City. If you do have sensitive skin, avoid gritty scrubs and harsh ingredients like alcohol, acids, and benzoly peroide; only use calming cleansers and ltoins containing natural anti-inflammatories adn antioxidants. I recommend the Indulge Body Butter lotions that are super light and almost good enough to eat. The ingredients are almost 100% natural safe to use on the face. These lotions and creams can only be purchased at Indulge Salon. For a location nearest year check out the locations tab at https://www.indulgesalon.com.
