Don't Let Your Acne Keep You in The Dark
Don't Let Your Acne Keep You in The Dark

Acne – it’s a tiny four letter word, but it haunts teens and young adults everywhere with its bold presence. It sneaks up on you one day out of nowhere and starts waging a battle that seems impossible to win. Suddenly your worst nightmare is any instance where your face is on display, where the lights are bright, where the only thing between you and total embarrassment is mounds of pathetic concealer. You’re not the cute, smooth-skinned presence you once were, and it seems like you may never be that bubbly, happy person again.

Why Everything You Know About Healthy Eating Could Be Wrecking Your Skin

When you hear the word fat come up in discussions about food, what is your first reaction? If you’re like most of the American population, your reaction is likely negative. Fats are synonymous with the word, “bad” in our culture. When we are inspired to get healthy, the first thing we tend to do is cut out fat from our diet.

Foods to Avoid This Holiday Season
Foods to Avoid This Holiday Season

One of the best parts of the holiday season is all of the delicious food there is to eat. Although we don’t want you to deprive yourself of your favorites, it does pay to eat smart. After all, the food we eat is directly connected, not just to what size pants we’ll be wearing, but to our skin. So although you might be able to rationalize that slice of pie in exchange for a new gym membership in January, that pie can also mean a breakout of blemishes for the annual family Christmas photo. And that photo could be framed on the mantel for many years to come, so it’s best to know when to splurge and when to decline.

Winning the War On Acne
Winning the War On Acne

Helping a lifelong acne sufferer clear her skin for good and start living her life with confidence.

For Vivian, acne has NEVER not been a problem. Teenage acne turned into adult acne, and her complexion simply kept getting worse and worse. She tried every treatment out there to no avail. It was only at the prospect of trying a controversial medication, ridden with side effects that she stopped to consider seeking out the professionals at Beauty Journey. But so many things had let her down in the past that she silently expected another failure.

Tis' the season to peel
Tis' the season to peel

When you think about getting a “peel,” you might immediately imagine a painful or harsh chemical treatment gone awry. We’ve all seen the movies of a “peel” gone wrong. Someone who was hardly in need of a peel was coaxed into it because of an upcoming date or other important event, walks into the salon looking fine, and leaves with a burnt, sensitive and alarming complexion. Best to file that into the “never do unless absolutely desperate” pile.

Stop Aging in Its Tracks
Stop Aging in Its Tracks

It’s just little things at first. Instead of ID-ing you at the liquor store, the cashier actually suggests a brand of wine that is similar to your regular brand. Every now and then, someone refers to you as a “ma’am” as you walk past. In your business meetings, you start to notice the eyes of the men in the room linger a little longer on the young new executive when they used to linger on you. And gradually and more often, you start to get waited on second at the deli counter or the bar or even the DMV as the younger women start to slip into your place. Eyes aren’t stopping on you anymore; they are passing right over you.

Barrier function refers to the complex of lipids (fatty materials – ceramides, fatty acids and cholesterol) that is present between the cells in corneum. This lipid barrier guards moisture (TEWL - transepidermal water loss) and protects against dehydration, redness and hypersensitivity and it also provides a lipid barrier to prevent irritants from entering the skin.
