During the winter months skin can feel tight, dry and scaly which can all be attributed to the loss of
moisture in the skin and the thickening of the outer layers of skin (stratumcorneum).
Simply by accelerating the exfoliation process and allowing the secretion of your
natural oils will help reduce the skin’s tautness.

The application of creams and serums containing ingredients that not only form an occlusive barrier to
prevent moisture loss but actually draw moisture particles from the atmosphere to the skin offer relief and
comfort to dry skin.There is no need to tolerate dry skin with these technological advances where skin
can be kept comfortable, supple, firm and well toned throughout the winter months.
Treatments at Beautiful Image for dehydrated dry skin.

We have a range of hydration treatments and intense moisturising skin care products help to restore
skin’s natural lubricants by decreasing the amount of dead skin cells which build up in the winter months.
During a consultation your paramedical skin technician may recommend some of the following
treatments:
Microdermabrasion, Specialised Environ Treatments, Specialsied Peels, LED Light Therapy Treatments,
Green Peel and IPL Photo-rejuvenation.

These treatments increase the microcirculation which intern supplies nutrients to the skin and provides
healthy colour and vitality. These treatments quickly stimulate rapid cell renewal encouraging the new
healthy cells to migrate to the surface of the skin surface along with the vital lubricants that naturally
hydrate the skin.

Myth - My moisturiser make me feel moist
Fact - This means the cream may be too thick to penetrate the skin to feed the vitamins the skin is lacking.

Myth - The skin does act as a barrier so only 2-7% of products penetrate the surface .
Fact - True, however cosmetic rolling allows up to 87% absorption of products. 

Myth - Foundations do not harm skin
Fact - Some foundations can cause skin congestion as blocked pores and pimples. Check yours by mixing a little in a glass of water. If friendly the water should become cloudy.

Myth

I have dry flaky skin and I use a scrub every other day to remove the dry skin. My skin feels great after I do this.

Truth

I agree your skin will feel great after the scrub but you will never fix the dry skin problem this way, it is just a bandaid and actually will eventually do a lot of harm causing you to become very sensitive and have a flushed skin. You need to use the correct skin program at home to stop the dryness. Your skin is actually lacking Vitamin A so you need to replace that essential vitamin. You need to use Environ.

Myth

Any moisturiser will do so long as I use something and it stops my skin feeling dry.

Truth

Moisturisers that are too heavy to be absorbed into the skin and just sit on the surface making you not feel dry can cause many skin problems such as blackheads, pimples, congestion and milia( little white hard lumps you see around your cheek bones and on your eyelids.). A  good moisturiser must be light so the skin is able to absorb the essential vitamins it must have including Vitamin A and Vitamin C.

Myth

Moisturiser including sunscreen is good enough.

Truth

It is very hard to get enough protection and absorption from a combined product. Just think you need to feed your skin so those ingredients must penetrate yet the others  will have to stay on the surface to protect the surface from the UVA and UVB rays of the sun penetrating. You are much safer to always place your separate sunscreen on last and reapply every 4 hours if you are out in the sun for hours on end.

Myth

You should always buy products for oily skin if you have acne.

Truth

NEVER.  Acne skin is usually very sensitive and if you dry out the oil, you will make it more sensitive.
