☀️ UV SAFETY AWARENESS MONTH ☀️
Think of your skin as an investment—UV protection is the long-term strategy. Here are 5 ways to outsmart UV damage all year long:
1. SPF + Antioxidants = Power Couple
SPF blocks UV rays, and antioxidants fight free radical damage. Together, they’re your daily must-have. Don’t forget to reapply SPF every 2 hours when outside!
2. Watch for Reflection 🌊
Sunlight reflects off water, sand, snow—even concrete. Shade doesn’t always mean protection. Keep your guard up!
3. Sun Exposure Isn’t Linear
The UV index fluctuates throughout the day. Cloudy? Cooler? Your skin still needs protection.
4. UV Rays Can Sneak Inside 🪟
UVA rays pe*****te glass. If your houseplants are thriving near a window, so is UV. Wear SPF indoors—especially if you’re near windows or driving.
5. If You Don’t Need Headlights, You Need SPF 🚗
This is one of my favorite reminders. If it’s light enough to drive without headlights, it’s light enough to cause skin damage.

🎯 Prevention > Correction.

✨ Final Day of Acne Awareness Month ✨
Let’s wrap up with a powerful reminder that clear skin doesn’t have to be complicated. 💫

This beautiful teen came to me feeling overwhelmed—dealing with congestion, breakouts, and confusion about what products to use. She also wanted to avoid medication, so I built a simple but effective skincare routine tailored just for her, supported by two deep cleansing facials.

🧴 No frills. No overload. Just consistency, the right ingredients, and a little trust in the process.

This transformation is less than 2 months apart. Her skin is thriving, and she powered through every extraction like a champ 💪 — now she’s glowing and so proud of the results (and so am I!).

If you’re struggling with acne, know this: you’re not alone. And it can get better with the right support.

Acne awareness client spotlight.
In her own words 🥹♥️👇🏻

“I’ve been seeing Keri for about 3 years now and I can’t thank her enough for all her expertise on my skin care journey. The first time I walked into IVME I was so vulnerable and upset with how my skin looked, but the entire staff always treated me with the utmost respect and kindness. Before IVME I saw a dermatologist and it was an uncomfortable and upsetting experience, Keri is so kind to her clients and understands their wants/ needs. I’ve never felt pressured to get additional treatments or buy product from her, although I do recommend taking her advice! The IVME team is the best thing that I’ve found in Milwaukee and I’m so grateful to have them in my corner ❤️ “

Why should you double cleanse?

Think of your nighttime cleanse like cleaning your floors…

Step 1: Sweep
Your first cleanse is all about removing the day—makeup, sunscreen, oil, and pollution. I love using the Gentle Cleanser by SkinCeuticals or Skinbetter’s Cleansing Gel here—both melt everything off without stripping the skin.

Step 2: Mop
Now that the surface grime is gone, your second cleanse (60 seconds!) actually cleans the skin, preps it for your serums, and allows your products to pe*****te better. It’s that crucial step people often skip! My favorite options are SkinCeuticals LHA Cleanser or Simply Clean and SkinBetters Refining Cleanser. There are amazing options for everyone!

Your skin will feel so much cleaner, softer, and more balanced when you do both. Which will help with breakouts and allow all of your amazing products work to their full potential.

Bonus step- dry your clean face with single use, biodegradable Clean Skin Club towels! Why go through all of that cleaning to wipe your face with a bacteria filled towel? We have a full stock of these available at IVme MKE!

Do you double cleanse already? What are your favorite cleansers? If not—what’s holding you back? Let’s talk about it in the comments!

PSA for the Long Weekend: Reapply That SPF!
If you’re spending time outside this holiday weekend—working outside, on a patio, or even just running errands—don’t forget to reapply your SPF every 90 minutes!

That first swipe in the morning isn’t enough to keep your skin protected all day.
UV damage is the #1 cause of premature aging—and yes, even on cloudy days.

I always keep the SkinBetter Tone Smart Compact with me. It’s a game changer because:
• It fits in your bag
• It goes on over makeup
• It gives real, mineral-based protection that lasts

Swipe on, stay glowing, and protect that beautiful skin.
Your future self will thank you.

• When detected early, the 5-year survival rate for melanoma is about 99% . 

🧴 Smart SPF Tips:
• Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30.

• Reapply every 2 hours, or after swimming or sweating.
• Don’t forget areas like ears, neck, and tops of feet.
