Aging Gracefully




















Aging no longer has to be something we dread. These days, there are simple ways to make the process much easier and less noticeable....without going under the knife!




Avoid premature signs of aging by taking preventative steps now. A lot of times we solely focus on facial skin care, and forget about the rest of our bodies. The entire body is important! Exfoliating the face along with the entire body is key, and here at Delicate Beauty Therapeutic Spa we have numerous exfoliation products and treatments. From rejuvenating chemical peels, Body Foliation Therapy and Flash Exfoliation, our licensed estheticians can tell you the best treatment for your skin type and concerns. In addition, we offer Dermalogica exfoliating products that can be used at home such as the Skin Resurfacing Cleanser, Exfoliating Body Scrub and the Multivitamin Thermafoliant.




Tackle Aging Before It Even Starts!



A common cause of premature aging is incidental sun exposure. That's when our skin is exposed to the sun without any UV protection. This happens when we do every day things like shopping and taking the dog on a quick walk. It is important that we wear sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher everyday on all exposed body parts. Dermalogica's Solar Defense System combines the latest sunscreen technology and ingredients to provide maximum UV protection.




The results of adult acne can also lead to premature skin aging. DBTS offers a Medicated Clearing Therapy treatment that jump-starts acne clearing and helps prevent acne well beyond treatment. Or for just $25 try the Rapid Spot Clearing Microzone Treatment, which expedites the process of breakouts and helps skin recover from inflamed lesions while drying and clearing breakouts. In addition, the Dermalogica MediBac Clearing line, which was developed for acneic and breakout-prone skin, has numerous products to rid adults of acne.





Problem Areas:



Legs



While there is no real way to get rid of pesky cellulite, there are ways to reduce its appearance. Keeping problem areas hydrated with products such as the Dermalogica Body Hydrating Cream will help to improve your skin's tone. Also, minimize signs of unsightly veins and bruises by moisturizing daily with products infused with vitamin K.



Hands & Feet





Battle dry hands with a gentle hand cleanser that wont strip them of essential oils. Following a cleanser, Dermalogica's Multivitamn Hand and Nail Treatment from the Age Smart line will leave hands, cuticles and nails conditioned and soft.





No matter how stylish a pair of shoes are, or if they are on sale, wearing shoes that don't fit can have serious consequences! Wearing shoes too small can lead to painful corns, bunions and hammertoes. Massaging the soles of your feet at night with a hydrating cream such as Ultrarich Body Cream, will help to repair the dry skin as you sleep.





DBTS also offers natural hand and foot therapy complete with an exfoliating Dermalogica warming mask to diminish spots caused from sun damage and a relaxing pressure point massage.

When To Revive Your Skin & Body Regimen






"Trading Up"

When is it time to see an esthetician?

Long bland isle ways with flickering florescent lights hanging above cluttered and congested shelves. Standing at the end you begin to make your way down. Neutrogena, Olay, Ceaphil, Noxzema.... decisions, decisions. You ponder to yourself as you quickly scan over the choices. "Am I dry, oily, or combination?" "Well sometimes I'm sensitive." "What are large pores? Do I have them?"

So overwhelmed by colorful packaging and intriguing smells that you eventually rush and choose something. You get home, feeling super hopeful that the path to healthy skin is about to begin. A few weeks go by and nothing has changed. A month, then two months. Finally frustrated you stop your new regimen. Now discouraged you go back to your Dove bar soap and warm water routine....

It's time to trade up!

According to July's issue of SPA Magazine, "Spa-grade products combine potent ingredients with an esthitician-recommended regimen to treat everything from blemishes to signs of aging. While these higher end options may sometimes require more of an investment than their drugstore or department store counterparts, in the long run you'll stop spending on skin care that doesn't deliver the results you want-and you'll look like a million bucks."

Why is switching to professional products worth it?

"Unlike Clinque, a cosmetic counter staple that uses milder formulations to suit a wider variety of skin types, Dermalogica is sold only by licensed skin therapists that go through special training and contains higher concentration of active ingredients. For example, it's Medibac Oil Control Lotion has hiacinamide and zinc gluconate to regulate sebum production, control bacteria and eliminate inflammation. Prior to purchasing the skin kit have your face "mapped" to determine which set works best for your skin."-
Melissa MacCalla July/Aug Issue-SPA Magazine

Summer Solutions; Sunburn, Ingrown Hairs, Razor Burn

Finally! The sun is shining high in the sky, the breeze is amazing and offers a great balance to breezy humid days in pure Michigan . But with this wonderful trade off from cold, dry, snowy weather comes more responsibilities. Ingrown Hairs....Razor Burn...Sunburned Skin...Back Acne. All issues that can throw a glitch in our day out on the beach or offset that summer outfit we spent all winter working to look good in. Summer solutions to the rescue!

Annoyance:

Back Acne...
Ingrown Hairs and Razor Burn...
Sunburned Skin...


SOS

Back Purification, also known as a back facial, is a popular service at Delicate Beauty during the warmer months and is a great way to battle back acne caused by sweat and clogged pores. The back is often a forgotten area on the body. Most whisk a tiny bit of body wash over this area before they leave the shower, while some neglect the area all together. Our esteticians will exfoliate and deep clean neglected pores with a warming detoxifying mask using steam to open pores, which allows better product penetration.

Avoid ingrown hairs and razor burn by waxing. By adding a consistent waxing routine to your regimen your skin will stay smooth and sleek. Waxing not only exfoliates, but thins the hair follicle out, making the new hair that grows back in it's place thin and less coarse and smooth and sleek-with results lasting 3-5 weeks. This will give you the ability to go on an extended vacay, leaving your shaving cream at home.

Most times we think of body therapy as some luxury treatment. Not with Dermalogica. DBTS being a Dermalogica Skin Studio offers power recovery therapy, which is a moisturizing body wrap that calms and rehydrates stinging, peeling, sunburned skin. Soothing ingredients such as aloe and colloidal oatmeal will act as "after sun repair."

Refine, Refresh, Renew for Spring


What place does spring hold in the season’s, melting snow & babbling brooks…brittle branches transform before your eyes sprouting tiny yellow & white bulb's…bees bumble & buzz…what does spring mean to you? Time to dust those picture shelves & de-clutter your space, mop & sweep those neglected nooks & cranies. Spring smells fresh & rejuvenates your soul & can rejuvenate your glow, but it may need a little help. Let’s awaken our bright, refreshed & sunny selves, uplift our spirits by following these tips:

Obstacle

Skin Renewal; Resolution= Dermalogica Microzone treatment may be just the ticket you need to give you that jump start. Microzone treatments are wonderful because they target your specific area of concern. The skin specialist can do a thorough skin mapping on your areas of concern & then treat those areas effectively in less than 30 mins. For $25 it’s worth it! Update your home regimen with a $35 starter kit that will safely introduce you to your skins spring renewal

Body Refinement; Resolution=A conditioning & gentle salt glow will eliminate scaly snake like skin from our Harsh Michigan winters. A Delicate Beauty Body Foliation treatment is a customized Dermalogica warming treatment & massage, & for under $65 add a touch of sun kissed bronzer which will give you a faux glow re-introducing your skin to that golden hue without the harsh UV rays.

Toxin Buildup; Resolution=Infusing your body with fresh fruits & vegetables is key, not only will they infuse your skin with anti-oxidants which help speed up cellular turnover, they will also help to flush out your system from all the winter pastries. Increase your water intake 10 fold, now that it’s officially getting warmer out, it’s imperative you are hydrating the inside to receive refreshed hydration on the outside. In need of a detoxification Overhaul? Try Isagenix 9 day detox program. Isagenix is different from traditional detox systems sold in drug stores or health food stores because it’s main focus is infusing your body with all the necessary vitamins & minerals you need on a daily basis, without starving yourself. Slip in to ByoungBFit & ask one of their certified trainers for the details.

Comfort Food induced weight gain; Resolution=sometimes it can be confusing when you come out of hibernation on how to jump start your fitness program. Enlist the help of a certified fitness professional that can take all your needs including any medical restrictions into consideration before designing your customized fitness program, no two programs are alike! www.byoungbfit.com for your fitness assessment.

Embarrassing hands & feet; Resolution= time for a hand & foot therapy refresher, in less than 40min you can restore crack heels & peeling cuticles. Annoyed with polish that chips before you make it home from the salon, try OPI soak off gel, for a small add on cost you can choose from multiple colors like "Miami Beet" or "Pink before you leap" for your hands or feet, with no mess or fuss. Gel will peel right off at the next visit & you can choose a different color. Hop in the Delicate Beauty starting May 8th to see a demo!

Dull make up routine (in desperate need of a lesson); Resolution= according to March/April’s issue of Spa magazine “an educational session with a spa makeup artist can help spruce your look and cater your cosmetics to warmer weather.” It’s great to bring the current make up that you use & a Delicate Beauty make specialist can aid you in what to keep, what to throw out, & recommend a line that works with your schedule. One of my favs is Tarte cosmetics (sold @Sephora) is an all natural line known for their vibrant cheek stains, mineral pigments & Age Smart ingredients. I love it because it’s universal & caters to women of all ages & colors!

Why Does Our Skin Age?



EVERYONE is always curious to find that "ageless" beauty or the "fountain of youth"...I say it's more important to understand what causes our skin to form wrinkles...why does it sag...is it hereditary...can I avoid skin aging or is it inevitable...?

Clinical studies have found that there are two different types of aging:

Intrinsic Aging & Extrinsic Aging

Intrinsic aging, also known as the natural aging process, is a continuous process that normally begins in our mid-20s. Within the skin, collagen production and elastin slows. Elastin is the substance that enables skin to snap back into place. Dead skin cells do not shed as quickly and turnover of new skin cells may decrease slightly. While these changes usually begin in our 20s, the signs of intrinsic aging are typically not visible for decades.

What are these signs:

*Fine wrinkles
*Thin and transparent skin
*Loss of underlying fat, leading to hollowed cheeks and eye sockets as well as noticeable loss of firmness on the hands and neck
*Bones shrink away from the skin due to bone loss, which causes sagging skin
*Dry skin that may itch
*Inability to sweat sufficiently to cool the skin
*Graying hair that eventually turns white on eye brows and lashes as well as our head
*Thinning lashes & eyebrows
*Unwanted Hair
*Nail plate thins, the half moons disappear, and ridges develops

Genes control how quickly the normal aging process unfolds. Some notice those first gray hairs in their 20s; others do not see graying until their 40's.

Extrinsic Aging


A number of extrinsic, or external, factors often act together with the normal aging process to prematurely age our skin. Most premature aging is caused by sun exposure. Other external factors that prematurely age our skin are repetitive facial expressions, gravity, sleeping positions, environmental factors such as pollution, and smoking.

The Sun. Without protection from the sun’s rays, just a few minutes of exposure each day over the years can cause noticeable changes to the skin.

***Freckles, age spots, spider veins on the face, rough and leathery skin, fine wrinkles that disappear when stretched, loose skin, a blotchy complexion, actinic keratoses (thick wart-like, rough, reddish patches of skin), and skin cancer can all be traced to sun exposure.

Scientific studies have shown that repeated ultraviolet (UV) exposure breaks down collagen and impairs the synthesis of new collagen. The sun also attacks our elastin. Sun-weakened skin ceases to spring back much earlier than skin protected from UV rays. Skin also becomes loose, wrinkled, and leathery much earlier with unprotected exposure to sunlight.

***The deep wrinkles, age spots, and leathery skin indicate premature aging caused by years of unprotected exposure to the sun.

Facial Expressions.
If you perform facial exercises to maintain a youthful-looking appearance, it is time to stop. Repetitive facial movements actually lead to fine lines and wrinkles. Each time we use a facial muscle, a groove forms beneath the surface of the skin, which is why we see lines form with each facial expression. As skin ages and loses its elasticity, the skin stops springing back to its line-free state, and these grooves become permanently etched on the face as fine lines and wrinkles.

Gravity. Gravity constantly pulls on our bodies. Changes related to gravity become more pronounced as we age. In our 50s, when the skin’s elasticity declines dramatically, the effects of gravity become evident. Gravity causes the tip of the nose to droop, the ears to elongate, the eyelids to fall, jowls to form, and the upper lip to disappear while the lower lip becomes more pronounced.

Sleeping Positions.
Resting your face on the pillow in the same way every night for years on end also leads to wrinkles. Called sleep lines, these wrinkles eventually become etched on the surface of the skin and no longer disappear when the head is not resting on the pillow. Women, who tend to sleep on their sides, are most likely to see these lines appear on their chin and cheeks. Men tend to notice these lines on the forehead since they usually sleep with the face pressed face down on the pillow. People who sleep on their backs do not develop these wrinkles since their skin does not lie crumpled against the pillow.

***Smoking.
Cigarette smoking causes biochemical changes in our bodies that accelerate aging. Research shows that a person who smokes 10 or more cigarettes a day for a minimum of 10 years is statistically more likely to develop deeply wrinkled, leathery skin than a nonsmoker. It also has been shown that people who smoke for a number of years tend to develop an unhealthy yellowish hue to their complexion. Additionally, a study conducted in 2002 showed that facial wrinkling, while not yet visible, can be seen under a microscope in smokers as young as 20.

These signs can be greatly diminished, and in some cases avoided, by stopping smoking. Even people who have smoked for many years, or smoked heavily at a younger age, show less facial wrinkling and improved skin tone when they quit smoking.

For Healthier, Younger-Looking Skin
Prevention. While you cannot stop or even slow down the intrinsic aging process, you can prevent signs of premature aging by protecting your skin from the sun, quitting smoking, and eliminating facial exercises.


***I recommend comprehensive sun protection to prevent premature aging caused by the sun. Comprehensive sun protection includes:

*Avoiding deliberate tanning, including use of indoor tanning devices.
*Staying out of the sun between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., when the sun’s rays are the strongest.
*Wearing protective clothing, such as a wide-brimmed hat and long sleeves, when outdoors during the day.
****Applying sunscreen year round. ****Sunscreen should be broad spectrum (offers UVA and UVB protection) and have a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of 15 or higher. Sunscreen should be applied 20 minutes before going outdoors to all skin that will be exposed. It should be reapplied after sweating or being in water.

Treatment. If you are bothered by visible signs of aging, a number of treatments are available. Manual Microdermabrasion, Chemical peeling, Anti-aging professional facial treatments and some topical treatments can restore skin, giving it a smoother and refreshed appearance.

Scientific research in the field of anti-aging continues to give rise to new and promising treatment options. Your Esthetician can help you sort through the numerous options, including the myriad of over-the-counter products. During a consultation, the esthetician will examine your skin, discuss your expectations, and recommend suitable treatment options.

Looking our best: Beauty Basics from the inside out~



We all have a desire to look our best, whether your a man or women, we all desire youthful, radient, and healthy skin. Our eating habits, exercise , and the way we cope with stress has direct impact on the health of our body, skin, hair, and nails. It's important to take a look at your nutritional needs...what does a healthy eating plan look like? It's balanced and comprises food that offer a variety of nutrients that your body needs to function. Many of us think our diet is comprised of mostly healthy foods...we eat some fruits, a few veggies, a multigrain muffin or bagel and think, "I did good today." Lets take a better look, begin logging your meals daily, including all juices and teas. At the end of the day, add it all up! When I lost 25 lbs this habit really opened my eyes on how many calories a piece of food really was, it was astoshing to see on paper just how much the foods I was eating affected my weight, my skin and body, even my hair.

Log on to: www.sparkpeople.com, create a free accont and begin logging your meals, including your water intake...which brings me to my next point-

H20: Water is an essential nutrient, it aids in almost every bodily function, including digestion, circulation, elimination, lymph drainage, and more. Dehydration will make your skin look dull and flaky it may even have a gray or bluish cast. Your hair and nails can be effected as well, turning brittle and weak. Hydration also keeps skin cells looking plump, minimizing the apperance of fine lines on the forehead and/or around the eyes and mouth. Carry bottle water with you, drink it with every meal instead of pop or juice. You could even drink it with flavor, by adding lemon, lime, or orange slices. These are all ways to get that 8-10 glasses in!

Fitness Fusion: REGULAR physical activity is also awesome for the health of your skin, body, hair, and nails...it increases circulation, which brings oxygen and vital nutrients to your cells. Exercise also improves sleep, which minimizez under-eye puffiness and dark circles. Exercise also increases your energy level, lowers anxiety, and elminates depression. When you feel better, you look better. Try incorporating 20-30 min of physical activity a day.
-walk around your neighborhood
-take a fitness class at your local rec center (EMU REC IM).
-take a dance class: Ballroom or Zumba

Grab a fitness partner, do whatever it takes to motivate you, use these tips to get out there and GET ACTIVE!
