Serious Relief For Sensitized Skin

Part 4!

Today we are in the treatment room with Dermalogica's brnad new line UltraCalming!

If you have red, itching , burning skin – don't conceal it. Control it! The Dermalogica UltraCalming treatment offers you serious relief for sensitized skin that calms, soothes and replenishes even the most aggravated, inflamed skin. By targeting the triggers behind your flare ups, this skin care treatment will help your skin recover it's health for long term relief from your itching and stinging.

I love this super soothing treatment and I am really excited about offering it to you from the beginning of May, when UltraCalming hits Cornerstone Therapies! I see clients suffering from couperose skin, dilated capillaries, angry acne and skin suffering from an environmental stress and sun damage every day. The fact that I can now target your Skin Care Treatments to help restore the health of your skin really excites me.

There are two professional products that I would like to bring your attention too today that are combined with some from the retail range in this great Skin Care Treatment. They will be used if and when it is appropriate to your skin, and so I shall carry out Dermalogica's unique Face Mapping skin Analysis for you. Face Mapping allows me to look at your skin in 14 different zones and each zone may have it's own concern that needs addressing.

For example; I may find dehydration problems in all zones, oily patches on zones 7 and 12, but angry acne around zones 11 and 13. Here we would be looking to controlling the oily zone 7 with a clay based masque and deep hydration will come into play through out the rest of the zones. In zones 11 and 13 we can really calm the redness of the acne and cool the inflammation.

Another common example is when I see dilated capillaries in zones 5, 9 and 14. This is normally down to some sort of sun damage in the past. However we can still work to help the appearance of these red patches with the UltraCalming range by building the skin's tolerance to the environment as well as protecting it from the sun.

The products to help us on the way are: UltraCalming Complex and Clinical Colloidal Masque.

UltaCalming Complex

Many of you will be surprised to find out that caffine has been added to this product, but it has been chosen as it helps to constrict the capillaries and this reduce the appearance of redness on the skin.

Hyaluronic Acid holds a thousand times it's own weight in water, thus hydration levels are really ramped up by using it. Hydration is key to calming skin as it aids your skin to function and to repair it's lipid barrier, which in sensitised skin is often damaged.

Panthenol (Pro Vitamin B) has hydration benefits as well as healing prperties as it helps promote tissue repair.

Apart from a concentrated amount of UltraCalming Complex that helps reduce sensitivity, irritation and inflammation, we can also count on the presence of yeast! Yeast stimulates oxygen consumption and combats irritation. It also works well with Panthenol to aid in tissue repair.

Clinical Colloidal Oatmeal

This classic masque is soothing and calming that helps boost the immune function of ultra-sensitive, irritated skin. When mixed with water, a creamy consistency develops that is ideal for a gentle application. It can relive the itchiness of eczema, soothe rashes and is ideal for sun or wind burned skin. It's an all round super remedy and all it is is pharmaceutical grade oatmeal!

So why not pop in for a Skin Care Treatment at Cornerstone Therapies and see how UltraCalming can be added to your time on the couch to aid your skins needs. Every Skin Care Treatment I carry out includes a full Face Map skin analysis, so you can completely trust that the facial you receive is tailor made for you and you alone.
