VITAMIN THERAPY
They say “A Vitamin a Day keeps Age Away”. This pampering facial called Vitamin Therapy saturates your skin with vital vitamins and nutrients that are essential for skin healing, skin radiance and brightening. Use of sonophoresis – sound waves open up channels in the skin, enabling deep penetration of vitamin-rich ingredients into the dermis where they work their complexion magic. I was pleased to see that a single session restored a certain glow back into my skin!
BABY SKIN PROGRAM
Rechristened as the “BB Aquatouch” laser, the Baby Skin Program uses a Fraxel Thulium laser that treats in the 1927nm wavelength which is particularly adept at clearing sun-damaged skin and stubborn pigmentation. Fans of this skin brightening program love its “photoshop” effect. Indeed, the skin looks enviably more luminous and feels baby smooth in as early as one sesson. A post-laser add-on makes use of this golden opportunity to further nourish the skin in a skin whitening stem cell extract containing Glutathione, a powerful anti-aging and skin whitening antioxidant.
SUNSCREENS
Thought that your skin is safe as long as it doesn’t burn after a day out? Don’t be fooled by it. Fact of the matter is, our skin doesn’t need to be scorched in order to be damaged. The sun emits UVB and UVA rays. While UVB rays are responsible for burning the skin, UVA rays does its damage silently, aging the skin without showing any signs of physical damage. Try a physical sunscreen with at least SPF 50. These contain physical filters such as zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide which protects the skin. Alternatively, try a wash-on sunscreen.
SKIN WHITENING SUPPLEMENTS
If you want whiter, fairer skin, try a skin whitening supplement. Crystal tomato is a highly effective, completely natural supplement with high anti-oxidant and skin whitening benefits. Derived from a rare breed of white tomatoes, these do not contain the orange carotenoids which can discolour skin. It works to give porcelain skin by inhibiting melanin synthesis to prevent pigmentation spots, while lightening existing pigments already formed. It also serves as a natural sunscreen and has been found to protect the skin from UVA and UVB rays. You will still need to wear sunscreen though!
