đź’¦ What happens when you stop using skin boosters?

Skin boosters hydrate, plump, and improve texture by drawing water into the skin and by stimulating collagen production.

If you stop using skin boosters, these effects gradually decline over several months. Your skin simply returns to its baseline, the way it looked before treatment.

đź’Ą Do skin boosters make your skin worse when you stop?

No. They don’t cause rebound dryness, sagging, or damage. You won’t “age faster” because you stopped.

If you’re dealing with pigmentation, be gentle with your skin!

Avoid harsh scrubs, over the counter chemical peels, and waxing on affected areas — irritation can actually make pigmentation darker and harder to treat.

Retinol is a proven, science-backed ingredient that helps renew, smooth, and strengthen your skin. Get to know this ingredient more:

1. Retinol speeds up skin renewal

This process smooths texture, fades dark spots, and keeps your skin looking fresher and brighter over time.

2. It boosts collagen production

One of retinol’s biggest benefits is that it stimulates collagen, the protein that keeps skin firm and plump. With consistent use, it can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles — making it one of the most effective anti-aging ingredients available.

3. Retinol works best when introduced gradually.

Start with a low concentration (0.1–0.3%) a few nights a week, and always pair it with moisturizer and sunscreen, since it can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Results build over time — usually within 8–12 weeks of consistent use.

A board-certified dermatologist can guide you on how to use retinol safely and effectively. Call 0917-713-5124 to schedule a consultation.

What are Humectants?

Humectants are ingredients that draw water into your skin to help keep it hydrated and plump.

Think of them as moisture magnets. They increase your skin’s water content, which helps it look smoother, fresher, and more supple.

Common Humectants in Skincare:

Hyaluronic acid – holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water

Glycerin – a gentle, effective hydrator found in many lotions

Aloe vera – naturally soothing and hydrating

Honey – attracts moisture and has antioxidant properties

Urea – helps hydrate and soften dry or rough skin

Think you only need sunscreen on sunny days? You’re not alone. That’s just one of the many sunscreen myths people still believe. Here’s the truth behind some of the most common ones.

Myth: You only need sunscreen when it’s sunny

Fact: UV rays can pe*****te clouds and windows — even on overcast or rainy days. Up to 80% of UV rays still reach your skin through clouds, and UVA rays can pass through glass. That means you should wear sunscreen every day, not just when the sun is out.

Myth: One application in the morning is enough

Fact: Sunscreen wears off over time due to sweat, water, and natural skin oils. Dermatologists recommend reapplying every two hours, or more often if you’re swimming or sweating. Even the best SPF won’t protect you all day without touch-ups.

Myth: Higher SPF means all-day protection

Fact: SPF 100 doesn’t mean double the protection of SPF 50 — it just blocks a slightly higher percentage of UVB rays. The real difference comes from how consistently and generously you apply sunscreen.
