AHA skincare Archives | Door of Youth

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.

See the benefits of AHA over 6 years my skin is smoother and younger looking.
With NO cosmetic procedures or injectables!!

If you want a more youthful skin use a product that is rich in AHA – Alpha Hydroxy Acid. Naturally sourced AHA is made from sugar cane as it has the smallest molecule of all the Alpha Hydroxy Acids which gives it the best permeability.

AHA have caused a sensation recently as anti-wrinkle active ingredients, AHA can loosen the intercellular ‘glue’ allowing new cells to come through more rapidly and stimulate the formation of collagen and elastin. The visible effect is a skin which looks fresher and younger. AHA acids help remove the surface dead skin cells, improving skin texture and color; skin is left feeling plump and glowing as the new skin layers are revealed.

As we age our skin starts to look dull, firmness disappears, the youthful glow is diminishing. Why does this happen & how can we look fabulous in our 40’s?

Our facial skin is made up of three layers the epidermis (what we see), dermis (the middle layer) and subcutaneous layer (the third layer). Your skin sheds every 28-45 days, rejuvenating the epidermis and allowing the next generation of skin cells to come forward. What happens is we get a BUILD UP of DEAD SKIN CELLS this will make our skin look tired, uneven tone & fine wrinkles may appear. With young skin types they get blocked pores that forms pimples and scar tissue.

The Door of Youth Skincare is RICH in AHA’s. The foaming cleanser is 5% AHA, Skin Renewal Serum 12.5 % and Revisiting Moisturizer rich in zinc with give more tone to the skin.
