“Eye Cream: Is It an Essential Product for Your Skincare Routine?”

The world of skincare offers a wide array of products, each claiming to be essential for achieving healthy and youthful skin. One product that often sparks debate is eye cream. Is it truly an essential part of your skincare routine, or is it merely an optional luxury? In this blog post, we’ll delve into the world of eye cream to help you understand its benefits, how it differs from regular moisturizers, and whether it should have a place in your daily skincare regimen. Let’s explore whether eye cream is a must-have or merely a nice-to-have in your pursuit of radiant skin.

Eye cream is a skincare product designed specifically for the delicate skin around the eyes. Here are some of the key benefits of using eye cream: Door of Youth Eye Cream is 100% Organic 15gm RRP – $38.95

1. Moisturization: Eye creams are formulated with ingredients that provide intense hydration to the skin around the eyes. This helps in preventing dryness and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
2. Reducing Puffiness: Many eye creams contain ingredients like caffeine or chamomile, which can help reduce puffiness and under-eye bags. They do this by constricting blood vessels and reducing fluid buildup.
3. Minimizing Dark Circles: Some eye creams contain ingredients like vitamin K or niacinamide, which can help to lighten and diminish the appearance of dark circles under the eyes.
4. Anti-Aging: Eye creams often include antioxidants, peptides, and retinol, which can promote collagen production and firm up the skin, leading to a reduction in the signs of aging, such as crow’s feet.
5. Protection: Certain eye creams contain SPF (sunscreen) to protect the sensitive skin around the eyes from harmful UV rays, which can accelerate the aging process.
6. Preventing Dryness and Flakiness: The skin around the eyes is prone to dryness and flakiness. Eye creams provide a barrier to lock in moisture and prevent this issue.
7. Enhancing Makeup Application: Applying eye cream before makeup can create a smoother canvas for concealer and eyeshadow, helping makeup to go on more evenly.
8. Self-Care: Incorporating an eye cream into your skincare routine can be a form of self-care and relaxation. The act of gently applying the cream and taking a moment for yourself can be soothing.

Remember that the effectiveness of an eye cream is using it daily and apply small amount, less is more when it comes to nourishing the eye area. Additionally, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet, adequate sleep, and hydration can complement the benefits of eye cream in achieving youthful and refreshed-looking eyes.

“Unveiling the Remarkable Benefits of Vitamin C Serum”

Introduction: Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a powerhouse antioxidant with a wide range of health benefits. When it comes to skincare, vitamin C serum has gained immense popularity for its ability to transform your complexion. In this blog post, we will explore the remarkable benefits of vitamin C serum for your skin, making it a must-have addition to your daily skincare routine.

1. Powerful Antioxidant Protection: Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that helps protect your skin from free radical damage caused by environmental stressors like UV rays and pollution. This protection is vital in preventing premature aging and maintaining skin health.
2. Brightens and Evens Skin Tone: One of the most sought-after benefits of vitamin C serum is its ability to brighten the skin and reduce the appearance of dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone. It inhibits the production of melanin, resulting in a more radiant complexion.
3. Boosts Collagen Production: Collagen is a protein that gives your skin its structure and firmness. Vitamin C plays a crucial role in collagen synthesis, helping to maintain skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
4. Hydrates and Moisturizes: Vitamin C serum can help your skin retain moisture, leading to a softer and more supple texture. It enhances the skin’s natural moisture barrier, preventing dehydration.
5. Reduces the Appearance of Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Regular use of vitamin C serum can visibly reduce the signs of aging, including fine lines and wrinkles. It helps plump the skin and promotes a youthful complexion.
6. Fades Acne Scars and Blemishes: For those with acne scars or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, vitamin C serum can be a game-changer. It can lighten these blemishes over time, improving overall skin appearance.
7. Combats Sun Damage: While vitamin C should not replace sunscreen, it does offer an additional layer of protection against UV damage. It can help repair skin that has been exposed to the sun and reduce redness and inflammation.
8. Suitable for Most Skin Types: Vitamin C serum is generally well-tolerated by various skin types, including sensitive skin. However, it’s essential to choose the right concentration and formulation to suit your individual needs.
9. Easy to Incorporate: Adding vitamin C serum to your skincare routine is simple. It can be applied after cleansing and before moisturizing, making it a seamless part of your daily regimen.
10. Long-Lasting Results: Consistent use of vitamin C serum can yield long-lasting results. With time, you’ll notice improvements in your skin’s overall health and appearance.

Conclusion: Vitamin C serum is a versatile and powerful addition to your skincare routine. Its numerous benefits, from protecting against environmental damage to brightening the complexion and reducing signs of aging, make it a must-have product for anyone looking to achieve healthier, more radiant skin. To reap the full benefits, select a high-quality vitamin C serum and incorporate it into your daily skincare regimen. Your skin will thank you with a glowing, youthful appearance.

Do you look at your skin and think ‘my skin looks so dull, and pigmentation is getting darker’.

Well, I did yesterday and wish I had taken a before picture. With 42 years in the beauty profession and the founder of Door of Youth Skincare I thought I need a professional peel and microdermabrasion…. I was wrong what I needed was AHA/BHA Botanical Exfoliator from Door of Youth skincare range.

Since I have moved to the Granite Belt Country area, which is 924 metre above sea level. I have noticed the skin on my face and neck looks tanned most of the time even though each day I were sunscreen and a hat when outside.

I have been so active with renovations of Aplin Cottage for ladies to visit for their #selfcare getaways. Which is now ready, and ladies are booking their visits.

After having a good look at my skin in the bathroom mirror, I could see there was a build-up of dead skin cells as the skin looked dull and dry. Well, it is time exfoliate the skin with AHA/BHA exfoliator. I left the product on for 3 minutes (do have the timer on) then rinsed off with a washer.

WOW my skin looked so different, truly the tanned or pigmentated skin look was now lighter and my skin smoother. I know the product is the best yet I was still amazed. WHAT did the product DO? I loosened and buffed away the dull skin cells.

I took a picture and over the coming weeks, will do the exfoliator treatment once a week then show you the after picture.

The double exfoliating action of the botanical exfoliator is achieved through AHA and BHA helping to loosen the bonds between dead epidermal cells which are then sloughed away by the sandalwood and tea tree powder granules. Antioxidant and soothing properties help to protect newly revealed cells leaving the skin with a smooth, refreshed texture and appearance.

Treatment:

After double cleansing pat skin dry and massage a small amount of exfoliator over the entire face, neck, and chest area (also the back of the neck) in gentle circular motions avoiding the lips and eye area. Can be left on the skin for a minute and up to 3 minutes after massaging in to allow the AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) and BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acids) to continue exfoliating.

Use a dampened soft cloth or rinse with tepid to cool water to remove all traces of exfoliating granules and until tingling sensations can no longer be felt. The absorption of active ingredients will be enhanced once dead skin cells are removed. Use once a week or as needed.

*Avoid direct sunlight for minimum 6 hours after use. It is common to experience a tingling sensation and mild flushed appearance after use. Remove product if you experience any discomfort. Do not apply to broken skin.

Is your skin looking dull, are fine lines appearing, pigmentation appears darker, skin feels dry?

Do I hear a YES to all of the questions? Then your skin has a build-up of dead skin cells and is in need to a beauty product or treatment to rejuvenate the skin.

Skin cycle:

A skin cycle is the process where a new skin cell is formed at the deepest layer of the epidermis and works its way up to the surface of the skin. At this point the skin cell has matured and ultimately flakes off.  A skin cycle can vary with each individual and is affected by such factors as age, hormones, skin condition/health and stress.

On average a skin cycle is 5-6 weeks. At the age of 19-21, the process can take 14-21 days compared to a middle-aged adult where it is estimated to be 28 days.  As we grow older, this skin cycle slows to about 45-60 days in our 40’s and 50’s. It can further slow to about 60-90 days in our 50’s and 60’s.

Why is this important? 

As we age our skin cycle slows down and dead cells accumulate on the surface of skin causing sagging and fine lines and wrinkles. Bacteria can become trapped causing blemishes and breakouts. Discoloured and irregular cells can also become trapped causing spots and discolouration. So, it is important to choose skin care products that can accelerate your cellular turnover and keep fresh new skin cells flourishing to the surface.

When starting a new skin care regime, it is advised to wait approximately 1-3 skin cycles so 6 – 18 weeks to see improved results. This gives the skin care chance to work on making changes to the cell’s health, condition, vitality, and strength. When the outer surface of skin is made of newer skin cells, skin feels softer and looks more vibrant. By maintaining an average 28-day or faster replacement cycle through healthy lifestyle choices and a regular skin care routine that addresses the basics of skin, your skin will appear smoother and more youthful.

Patience is the Key

Be patient with new skin care and give it time to do its job. Cosmeceutical skincare is designed to work on the deeper layers of the skin so immediate results are not always seen. Over the counter skin care works on the surface of your skin, so it may immediately feel soft but long-term benefits will not be comparable.

So, what is the best home care?

Professional Treatment – Glycolic peel with a microdermabrasion.

Glycolic acid peels slough off the surface and middle layers of skin, removing dead skin cells and debris. Since glycolic acid is made up of small molecules, it readily penetrates skin, removing the lipids that hold dead skin cells together. The percentage of glycolic acid contained in the peel determines how deeply it can penetrate the skin’s layers.

What is microdermabrasion? Microdermabrasion treatments use a minimally abrasive instrument to gently sand your skin, removing the thicker, uneven outer layer, and has many benefits. This type of skin rejuvenation is used to treat light scarring, discoloration, sun damage and stretch marks.

Being in the professional beauty arena for 40 + years, I have discovered that women get to an age when they look in the mirror and see the skin has aged. YOU CAN RENEW the skin!!

About every 30+ days the top layer of the skin dies and we get a build-up of dead skin cells. Cleansing and double cleansing with a Lactic Acid based product will assist in buffing away the dead skin cells.

Weekly home facial treatments and use the AHA/BHA Exfoliator followed by the French Green Clay mask. In the morning your skin will be RENEWED.

We get back to the Cleanse – Rinse – Nourish – Repeat daily and weekly home facials.

At the young age of 62, I get compliments on how great my skin is. My answer is “I make love to my skin every day” and I have been doing this since I was 13 years old.

It is time to “make love to your skin” and YOU deserve to have beautiful glowing skin.

Facial Exfoliation: What Is It?

Although most people understand the importance of keeping skin clean, for many, the concept of facial exfoliation is a foreign one. While cleansing your skin on a daily basis may rid the skin of dirt and oil, it doesn’t necessarily act as a facial rejuvenator or help unclog pores the way exfoliation does.

Here are 10 Benefits of Exfoliation

1. Exfoliation creates a radiant, glowing complexion. Yes, cleansing can help rid the skin of dirt and oil, but exfoliation is what makes skin really gleam with health.
2. Exfoliation helps moisturizer work more effectively. Moisturizer on skin that isn’t exfoliated really just sits on the surface. If you want the moisturizer to really sink in, exfoliating the skin is the best way to do it.
3. Exfoliation prepares the skin for make-up. By helping to even out skin texture, exfoliation helps make-up go on as smoothly as possible.
4.  Exfoliation helps unclog poresand draws out impurities. Cleansers can only go just so deep in terms of getting out gunk, but exfoliators really get in there to decongest pores.
5. Exfoliation is anti-aging. Exfoliation revitalizes skin, promoting ageless beauty.
6. Exfoliation provides an instant glow. If you’ve never exfoliated your skin before, you’ll be amazed at how quickly it improves the look of your skin. By unclogging pores, exfoliation provides an instant glow.
7. Exfoliation inspires rejuvenated skin. Do an exfoliation “before and after” of your skin and we think you’ll find that the “after” shows your skin is seriously revitalized!
8. Exfoliation helps smooth the skin. You know how rocks are polished to a smooth surface to use in jewellery? That’s kind of how skin exfoliation works in terms of smoothing the skin.
9. Exfoliation is great for the skin on your body. Just as facial exfoliation helps prepare the skin for make-up or moisturizer, exfoliation for the skin on your body helps prepare it for moisturizing as well.
10. Exfoliation helps to prepare the skin for self-tanner. If you’ve ever tried to self-tan without exfoliating first, you probably know that you’ll end up with giant streaks instead of a nice, even tan. The next time you decide to self-tan, prepare your skin by exfoliating really well! (And whatever you do, you want to avoid tanning beds, which only can increase your risk of skin cancer and lead to premature aging!)

Stay Youthful

Debbie Majella – Founder of Door of Youth Skincare

Menopause causes many changes to your skin. Your body stops making as much collagen. You lose some fat under your skin and your skin’s elasticity drops. That, combined with dryness caused by hormonal changes, can cause sagging especially around the neck, jawline, and cheeks and fine lines and wrinkles.

1. During menopause, lower levels of estrogen have a big impact on your skin. Less estrogen makes you prone to thinning, sagging, and wrinkling.
2. Your body stops making as much collagen. You lose some fat under your skin and your skin’s elasticity drops. That, combined with dryness caused by hormonal changes, can cause sagging especially around the neck, jawline, and cheeks and fine lines and wrinkles.
3. Beauty routine AM & PM is an important skin care step especially as you age.

Vitamin C and AB Night serum from Door of Youth Skincare

Vitamin C and AB Serum applied together is a laying of serums for a non – stop vitamin infusion.  Vitamin C hydrates, brightens, and tones, A and B group vitamins get to work while you sleep for an overall perfected complexion by morning. Potent actives improve skin texture and tone while peptide complexes repair skin’s deeper layers to restore a youthful appearance.

After menopause, your skin gets drier because oil glands aren’t as active. Try to give skin more moisture with a heavier cream. Skip long, hot showers and put on moisturizer while your skin is still damp. That helps boost hydration.

You Still Need SPF

Even though skin cancer and wrinkling are caused by the amount of sun you got in your 20s, 30s, and 40s, you still need to protect your skin. Why? Skin may have less natural protection than when you were younger. So, look for a broad-spectrum SPF of 30 or higher, and wear it every day. I personally wear a sun shirt when walking and gardening from

Minimize Wrinkled Skin

You get wrinkles from too much sun damage over the years, as well as the hormonal changes of menopause. As your hormone levels decrease with age, that can change your skin quality and make wrinkles worse.  Wrinkles may be more obvious when your skin is dry, especially as you age. Use moisturizer on your face, jawline and neck every day, and look for skin care products designed to help fight fine lines and sagging and that lead to a brighter appearance overall. Day Cream with Marine Collagen from Door of Youth and priced at $39.95 great value.

Day Cream

Enriched with the soothing and hydrating properties of Aloe Vera and the restorative properties of Marine Collage, this moisturiser soothes, softens, helps repair the skin, resulting in a reduction of wrinkles and a smoother appearance. 

https://doorofyouth.com/product/enrich-day-cream-with-hyaluronic-acid-50ml/

Hit the Spots

Age spots on the face, hands, and chest can look more obvious around menopause. Help prevent them by using sunscreen every day. Already got spots? Fade them with exfoliating products that shed dead skin cells, which can be dull and flaky. Skin-lightening products can help fade spots. Toners can also help even out skin color.

Botanical Exfoliator with AHA & BHA 100ml

The double exfoliating action of the Botanical Exfoliator is achieved through AHA and BHA helping to loosen the bonds between dead epidermal cells which are then sloughed away by the Sandalwood and Tea Tree Powder granules. Antioxidant and soothing properties help to protect newly revealed cells leaving the skin with a smooth, refreshed texture and appearance.

 https://doorofyouth.com/product/botanical-exfoliator-with-aha-bha-100ml/

Help Your Hands

The backs of your hands can lose moisture, collagen, and fat during menopause. That can make veins more obvious and skin more wrinkled. Plus, your skin can look see-through and bony. To reduce the look of wrinkles, use moisturizer often on your hands. Protect them from the sun.  And wear gloves when doing house or yard work.

Eat Your Antioxidants

Collagen gives your skin its youthful plumpness and keeps your skin tight. As your estrogen levels drop, so does the collagen in your skin. Eating foods with antioxidants may help make your skin stronger from the inside out. Look for brightly coloured fruits and vegetables (they get their color from these healthy compounds) and try to eat every color of the spectrum.

Morlife have a great collagen powder that I have used for many years, mix with your smoothy or sprinkle over porridge or cereal in the morning.

Stock Up on Soy

Soy is rich in isoflavones, plant-based compounds that seem to act like estrogen in the body. Isoflavones may help improve age-related changes like thinning skin. Experts believe about 50 mg of isoflavones that’s like 3 ounces of tempeh or a half cup of miso a day can help menopausal women in other ways, too.

Look for Balance

Stress can make your skin drier and more sensitive. It can also trigger conditions like psoriasis. And if you’re stressed out, you might even forget your skin care routine. Try yoga, meditation, and other stress-reduction techniques to help you relax.

Work It Out

Exercise does more than just tone your muscles. It helps skin in two ways. First, it relieves stress. Exercise also boosts circulation, which begins to slow with age. The extra oxygen and blood flow can help your skin look brighter and healthier.

Beauty Sleep

Getting enough sleep helps your skin look fresh. Sleep can help prevent dark circles under your eyes, and it also gives the rest of your body a chance to recharge. Lack of sleep can change your hormone levels and metabolism in many of the same ways that aging does. One hour before bed turn off the laptop, mobile phone, have a cup of herbal tea, the warm will assist with sleeping. Then sleep for a solid 7 to 9 hours of shut eye every night.

Country Lifestyle

Founder of Door of Youth Skincare, Debbie Majella after 40 years on the Gold Coast, has left the skyline of high-rise buildings for the black velvet sky with stars that shine like diamonds in the country.

Being a country lady at heart born in Toowoomba, she new it was time to move to a simple life in the country. Smell the fresh air, no traffic lights, be part of a small community about 3 hours from the Gold Coast.

“Having an online skincare business, we can take the online shop to any part of Australia. Being an Australian owned and made natural organic skincare, it was time for me to return to the beauty of the country. I have been visiting the town of Stanthorpe for 15 + years so it was an area that was calling me.

The Gold Coast has lost its sparkle for me and searching online for land I discovered a lovely place called Glen Aplin, 10.8 kilometres from Stanthorpe. In February 2021 I drove to the land at Glen Aplin and was a landowner by the end of that week.

I choose land over an established house and land as I wanted to move a ‘country cottage’ to the land. There are homes that are on stumps and get be moved. I discovered a 1950 country cottage from David Wright Removalist and loved the house from the day I saw it online.

It has been a challenging journey getting all in order from soil test, survey of the land, fence boundaries, council approvals, plumbers for sewerage, water tanks, power poles and much more.

The best part has been travelling out to Glen Aplin, meeting country folk and forming relationships that will be everlasting. There is a different vibration to country folk and city slickers.”

The house only needs minor reno’s, all going to plan will be living in the house end of November 2021.

From our door to your door we send Door of Youth Skincare. Our warehouse is on the land, the online store is open 24/7, all our skincare products are under $50 and our postage is a flat $9.50 Australia wide.

Until next time, stay youthful
