Tips, tricks, hints, or suggestions. No matter what they’re called, they help you get the most out of your favorite products. Here is a collection of our best tips.
1. Skin Care Tip - Softer, smoother, younger looking hands in less than 30 seconds!
While exfoliating your face in the shower don't forget to rub some of the exfoliant on the back of the hands. It only takes an extra 10 seconds of shower time and you'll be amazed at the results once you dry off. Next, use your vitamin C or antioxidant facial serum right on the back of your hands. Follow with an emollient cream or lotion like Strivectin HC Hand Cream In no time at all you'll notice smoother, younger looking skin!
2. Bright and beautiful elbows!
Here’s one of the best beauty tips ever! And, it’s one of the easiest and most effective. For brighter, whiter elbows, simply take a lemon cut in half and press both elbows into each half for about 5 to 10 minutes. Have a towel handy for any excess juice. Rinse and pat dry when done. Next, apply a smoothing and firming moisturizer like Strivectin SD SPF - You’ll be amazed how clean and soft your elbows become.
3. Skin Care Tip - Whiten Your Teeth with a Strawberry!
Don’t get caught without your whitening toothpaste. But if you do, here’s an easy, temporary fix. Malic acid in strawberries combined with baking soda removes tooth discoloration such as red wine and coffee. Blend one crushed ripe strawberry with one-half teaspoon of baking soda to cleanse and brighten your teeth. Brush your teeth with the spread and leave on for five minutes.
Next, brush your teeth as usual with any toothpaste to remove residue. Then floss. Never be without a beautiful, youthful smile—use GoSMILE. The 5 Senses kit has several outhwatering flavors for home or on the go.
4. Exfoliate!
We all know that exfoliators remove dead skin cells to make our skin appear softer, smoother and brighter. This skincare step also allows better penetration of the serums we use.
But here's another, often forgotten reason they work so well – it's called circulation! While exfoliating takes cleansing a step further, it also increases the blood flow to the layers of the skin, which also speeds along cell renewal. It's a two-fer!
Check out Peter Thomas Roth's Botanical Buffing Beads, Peter Thomas Roth's Anti-Aging Bufing Beads, or the Peter Thomas Roth's Botanical Buffing Beads Exotic Collection. Add exfoliation to your skincare regimen and reap the healthy benefits.
5. Dry Heels But No Time for a Pedicure? Try These Skin Care Tricks!
Have plans for an exciting evening but time is limited? No worries! Here’s a two-step skin care tip you’ll love.
Step 1: Exfoliate your feet while in the shower. Use one of your facial skincare exfoliators such as the raved about skincare product, Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion , which polishes the skin with magnesium oxide crystals.
Step 2: When you get out of the shower, instead of reaching for a normal skincare product for your feet like body lotion, use a softening and exfoliating pedicure product like MD Formulations Pedicreme or Bliss Foot Patrol. Follow with a refreshing and moisturizing mist like MD Skincare Hydra-Pure Mist. These fast-acting formulas are an instant pedicure in a bottle, and will leave your feet silky smooth the entire evening. So slip on those cute little strappy heels and enjoy yourself!
6. Price + Length of Supply = Value
When considering a moisturizing cream for your anti-aging skincare regimen, you shouldn’t worry so much about price, but more about how long the skincare product will last.
An example of an excellent value is Strivetin SD, one of the leading anti-aging products on the market. This six-ounce tube can last approximately up to six months. Compare that to a "less expensive" product that contains as little as one ounce with an estimated 30-day supply.
When you do the math, the smaller, "less expensive" product could end up costing you double or triple the amount you would have paid if you originally purchased the more expensive skincare product. Shop wisely for the best value.
7. Skincare While You Sleep - Heat Absorbs
Does your night cream end up on your pillow while you sleep? Try this—slightly heat the skin care product and then apply. The cream will penetrate better and stay on your face, not your pillow.
It’s easy:
Heat water in a small cooking pan on your stovetop.
Hold a spoonful of cream over the water for a few moments. Be careful not to burn your hand from the steam.
Apply the warm skin care product to your face.
Don’t heat the cream in a microwave—the intense heat can cause a change in the ingredient properties.
Sleep is the best time for renewal. For maximum results, use one of our skincare favorites, Z. Bigatti Re-Storation Good Night Facial Cream.
8. Cold Soothes in the Morning
To relieve puffy eyes, place your eye cream or serum in the refrigerator before bed. When you apply it in the morning, the cooling sensation of the skin care product will help reduce any puffiness.
We recommend either of these skincare products: Babor Sensational Eyes Gel or Strivectin SD Eye Cream —you'll look so rested, people will ask for your skincare secret!
9. Here’s to Wedded Skincare Bliss!
A great way to save money is to find "two-fer" skin care products. Some examples include skincare cleansers with an exfoliator or toner built right in, like MD Skincare All-in-one Facial Cleanser with Toner or MD Skincare Moisturizing Body Wash, which exfoliates as it cleanses the body.
Another win-win skincare trick is the quick and easy one-step fusion of skin care moisturizers with a built-in sunscreen, like MD Skincare All-in-one Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15. But the mother of all skincare unions? The marriage of moisturizer with powerful skincare detoxifying properties such as MD Skincare Hydra-Pure Intense Moisture Cream.
10 Routine + Simplicity = Skin Care Success
Be true to a skincare routine! You’ll see the difference when you’re consistent with a daily regimen. It’s easy to do when you keep it simple.
The basics to a regimen? Cleanse, tone and moisturize, once in the morning and again at night.
For optimum results, combine steps and use products with powerful, effective ingredients. Start with a top-notch cleanser that includes make-up remover and toner like MD SkinCare All in One Cleanser followed by a top of the line 'all-in-one' moisturizer that contains anti-aging and cutting-edge cosmeceutical ingredients such as Z-Bigatti Restoration Cream .
Try this high impact, user-friendly, two-step regimen for gorgeous, 'peaches and cream' skin. Easy, fast and extremely effective!
