EYECREAM✨

Skin around eye area is less dense & more delicate than rest of the face.It is the first areas to show earliest sign of ageing, particularly without proper care.

The eye area must be treated with products specifically designed to allow minimal spread after application to the Skin. Due to increased sensitivity near eye area, eye creams are formulated with an altered level of potent ingredients to promote skin tolerant minimise irritation.

Face creams & serums are not designed for eyes, that's why we all need eye creams to look after our beautiful eyes. ✨

S K I N T I P - If your prefered foundation has an SPF of 30 or even 50. It's probably not enough, Doubling up is a better bet. Use a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 (underneath any makeup) and a makeup with SPF 30. ✨

M E L A N O M A is a serious form of skin cancer that begins in cells known as melanocytes. Australia has one of the highest rates of melanoma in the world.

Melanoma is tumour caused by uncontrolled growth of melanocytes.
Melanocytes, are skin cells found in the upper layer of skin. They produce a pigment known as melanin, which gives skin its color. There are two types of melanin: eumelanin and pheomelanin. When skin is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or tanning beds, it causes skin damage that triggers the melanocytes to produce more melanin, but only the eumelanin pigment attempts to protect the skin by causing the skin to darken or tan.

Melanoma is more dangerous because of its ability to spread to other organs more rapidly if it is not treated at an early stage.

Melanoma begins to develop when DNA damage from burning or tanning due to UV radiation trigger changes (mutations) in melanocytes, resulting in uncontrolled cellular growth.

UV radiation from the sun and other sources can harm your skin permanently, regardless of your skin type. This means that skin cancer can affect persons of any ethnic background, even individuals who never tan or rarely burn.

How is melanoma diagnosed?

To identify unusual moles, it is important to know their basic characteristics. The most prominent features of the moles that may eventually develop into melanoma include:

- Asymmetric or one side different from other
- Border is Irregular
- Colour is mixed / Uneven distribution of colors
- Diameter larger than 6 millimeters
- Evolving gradually (changes in shape, size, or color)

How to prevent melanoma?

- Protect your skin from sun ☀️
- Do self check regularly 🔎
- Get a professional check yearly 🕵️‍♀️ or if anything suspicious pop in between

PS: It's also important to check for any suspicious lessons before undergoing laser or IPL treatments, as the colour of the lesions may change after treatment, delaying diagnosis.

Pro Tip 👉🏻 When applying eye cream, use your ring finger to provide the same amount of pressure. With too much pressure, you can easily develop wrinkles; because skin around the eyes is extremely fragile, and the ring finger is recommended for the least amount of pressure and pull. ✨

WHY IS OIL SO IMPORTANT FOR YOUR SKIN? 💫⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Did you know your skin is heavily dependant on a delicate balance of oil in order to control the evaporation of water from the skin?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The simple law of physics says that oil sits on top of water. If we want to retain the water levels within our skin in order to support cellular hydration, the skin requires an oil covering.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The skin contains important oil phases that control the evaporation of water from the skin. Sadly, as we age and go through life, these important built-in defence systems fail and the outermost layer of the skin (your epidermis), begins to lose high amounts of water; and this water movement is known as fast trans-epidermal water loss (FTEWL).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To maintain the water levels within the skin, all skin oils must be at optimum levels. Essential fatty acids such as phosphatidylcholine, ceramides, triglycerides and other sebum-related ingredients, are very important as they replenish the oil phases in order to keep the water content within the skin as much as possible!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s important to remember that oil sits on top of water, and how both these solutions though very different, work in synergy with one another to create a healthy, functioning and sustainable skin.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
