Q:
I'm Feeling the
effects of aging, but I
don't want to undergo
invasive cosmetic
surgery. Is there an
alternative?
A: There are many
alternatives to surgery.
Depending on the effects
you are experiencing,
there are several
products on the market
that will improve,
prevent or counteract
these unwanted changes.
Most are formulated to
improve skin firmness,
tone, and texture, and
also to diminish the
appearance of fine lines
and wrinkles.
BeautyVice.com carries
several of the best
anti-aging brands on the
market, including
Kinerase, MD Skincare,
Janson Beckett, Freeze
24.7, Natura Bissé and
Cellex-C.
Q:
What are the best
hair care products for
controlling flaking?
A: Flaking of the scalp
is a common issue for
both men and women and
is often caused by a dry
scalp. But sometimes the
products you use on your
hair are the culprit. If
you suffer from dry
scalp, it is important
to use shampoos and
conditioners that are
specially formulated to
attack this problem,
such as Kerastase Dermo
Calm Bain Vital and
Kerastase Dermo Calm
Emulsion Hydra Calmant.
There are also some
great styling products
available that will
minimize flaking,
including American Crew
Styling Gel.
Q:
What are the causes
of acne and what can be
done to control it?
A: Acne is caused by
clogged pores, which can
occur for any number of
reasons. There are many
ways to control acne. If
your acne is very
severe, you may want to
consider seeing a
Dermatologist, who can
prescribe medication
which is often helpful
in these cases. For
cases of mild to minimal
acne, there are several
excellent over the
counter cleansers,
toners and creams that
prevent and treat acne.
BeautyVice.com carries
several the best
acne-fighting brands of
the market, including
Peter Thomas Roth, MD
Skincare, Murad, Dr.
Brandt, and Natura
Bissé.
Q:
Do I really need to
use a toner?
A: It depends on your
skin type. Some toners
are designed to remove
dirt or make-up residue
or excess oil, while
others hydrate and
nourish your skin. For
oily and acne prone
skin, an toner is an
important part of the
skincare regiment. If
you have dry, sensitive
skin, you might want to
pass on the toner,
unless it is formulated
for sensitive skin and
it doesn't include
drying ingredients like
alcohol. Natura Bissé
Sensitive Toner is an
excellent alternative to
stronger products.
Q:
Do those teeth
whitening products
really work?
A: Yes! Teeth whitening
is both effective and
safe. These products,
which are also referred
to as "teeth bleaching
products" use a safe
amount of hydrogen
peroxide to whiten the
tooth enamel. GoSmile,
one of the premiere
whitening brands, is
clinically proven to
whiten teeth.
Q:
How do I go about
choosing the best
moisturizer?
A: It depends on your
skin type. There are
products tailored for
specific skin types, be
it dry, oily or
somewhere in between.
Cream formulations are a
better match for dry
skins, while a
lightweight lotion works
for normal skin. If your
skin is oily, you will
need to use a
combination. Kinerase
Morning Boost, Murad’s
Perfecting Night Cream
and C+C Vitamin C Cream
SPF 10, by Natura Bissé
are among some of the
superior moisturizers
available at
BeautyVice.com
Q:
What causes the dark
circles under my eyes
and can anything be done
about them?
A: This is one of the
most common complaints.
Generally, under-eye
dark circles are caused
by a lack of sleep. But
hereditary also plays a
role. You can camouflage
them with a concealer.
There are also products
available at
BeautyVice.com to help
minimize under-eye dark
circles, such as Peter
Thomas Roth‘s Power K
Eye Rescue and Janson
Beckett’s OkuSil Under
Eye Treatment.
Q:
I blow dry my hair
almost daily. What can I
do to minimize the
damage?
A: Too much heat causes
your hair to dry out and
break. For starters, cut
back on the amount of
times you blow dry your
hair. But if you must do
so, experts recommend
blow-drying your hair
eighty-percent dry and
letting the rest dry
naturally. In the
meantime, try Kérastase
Nutritive Maquintense
Thick to treat your
over-heated locks.
Q: I head to the beach
frequently, but the salt
water seems to damage my
hair, leaving it dry and
frizzy. What products
will help counteract
this damage?
A: There’s no question
-- the sun, salt water
as well as chlorine can
wreak havoc on your
tresses. Look for
products that contain
natural moisturizers and
sun filters, which
provide swim protection
for color-treated and
sun-exposed hair. Check
out Kérastase Soleil
Crème Aqua Resist at
BeautyVice.com.
Q:
How often should I
exfoliate? Should I do
it at night or in the
morning?
A: Exfoliation reduces
the appearance of fine
lines and wrinkles.
Unless you have
extremely oily skin,
daily exfoliation is not
necessary. Once or twice
per week is sufficient.
Most experts agree that
you should exfoliate at
night, so that your skin
has time to rejuvenate
while you sleep.
BeautyVice.com has great
products for this, such
as Peter Thomas Roth‘s
Glycolic Acid 3% Facial
Wash and Alpha Beta
Daily Face Peel, by MD
Skincare.
