The Naughty And Nice List: Ingredients You DO Want In Your Makeup Collection

December 9, 2018 by MyStyleSpot 1 Comment

When it comes to our makeup collections, most of us know a thing or two about the ingredients which we should avoid. Programs have been made about them. Articles have been written about them. And, many of us don’t even consider stocking up on new products unless we have our red list of ingredients to hand. The ingredients which make a frequent appearance on such lists include –

Parabens (of course)
Triclosan
Polyethene
Retinoic acid
Petroleum distillates

That’s just to name a few. You may recognize some of the names which appear here, including petroleum! It doesn’t take a genius to work out that isn’t going to be the best for your skin. But, we aren’t here to dwell on the negatives. There are enough guides out there to help you avoid these things. Instead, we’re going to point out a few ingredients you may benefit from actively seeking out.

Yes, you did read that right. Some ingredients in our favorite products can work wonders for our skin. Sadly, these guys don’t get half the coverage they deserve. We’re all too busy berating the bad stuff. But, if you’re fed up of putting your products through the wringer, it’s time to write a ‘nice’ list. This will ensure you actually come away from that shopping trip with a product or two.

Retinol

You may have heard that retinol should appear on your naughty list. There’s no denying that this is something you want in small doses. But, this is actually a pretty handy addition. It could work wonders for your appearance. That’s because this chemical alone is what’s known as a ‘cell communicator’. It speaks to your cells, if you like, and encourages them to restore themselves. This way, retinol ensures that your cells keep producing younger and healthier replacements. These both improve your skin’s appearance and fight the appearance of things like wrinkles. That’s a pretty cool result from one single chemical. The majority of opposition against retinol is because it’s a strong chemical. We all know that they aren’t always the best for our skin. But, if this is one or two of your products, you can bet it will help you achieve that fresh-faced look you’re after.

The Best Way to Get Beautiful, Glowing, More Youthful Skin at Home: Microderm GLO – 2018 Holiday Gift Guide Review

November 21, 2018 by MyStyleSpot 71 Comments

The new year will be here before you know it. Another year under the belt, another year older and wiser… Uh ok, I can deal with the wiser, but the older is not so fun to think about. I’m approaching my late 30s. I know, where did the time go? I don’t understand how 40 can already be one-year closer again! I’ve been trying to not focus so much on age and instead, go with how I feel. Do I feel 38? Nope! Do I look it? Maybe.

Luckily, there are ways to help us look a little closer to how we feel. I know like me if you’re in your late 30s, or 40s, there’s a good chance by now, you’ve visited a Dermatologist’ office and have looked into or had some injections, a chemical peel, and probably a microdermabrasion treatment as well, by now!

While these treatments can certainly be very effective, they aren’t exactly cost-friendly, and quite possibly something most of us just can not afford or would rather not spend our hard earned cash on. For me, convenience and time play a big factor as well, as to whether I’ll go to the trouble to have something done. I find the days slipping by so quickly and often feel like I didn’t accomplish all I wanted to that day, so the last thing I want to do is take an hour or two out of my day each month to visit a dermatologist office! I’d rather spend that time on a massage, and relax while feeling good instead of getting my face pricked at, but maybe that’s just me.

These are just a few of the reasons why I LOVE Microderm GLO diamond microdermabrasion. This handy tool does exactly what you pay good money for and spend all that time at the dermatologist’s office for, but you can do it right at home, in just 4 minutes, and it costs a mere fraction of what you’d pay your Doctor to have it done! In fact, it will save you thousands over time! Yes, THOUSANDS!

Microderm GLO is safe for all skin types! Not only is it just as high-quality and effective as an in-office treatment, but it’s actually #1 Dermatologist Recommended! I’ve heard of dermatologists actually telling patients to get one of these handy devices and save themselves some time and money by doing this quick treatment at home! In fact, it was created by a group of award-winning dermatologists!

Haven’t tried microdermabrasion yet? Well, these treatments help with ALL signs of agings, including minimizing fine lines and wrinkles, fading sun spots, and evening out skin tone too. It also has been clinically proven to reduce pore size! I know! I didn’t know that was even possible! But it is! With Microderm GLO, anyway! [Read more…]
