Lets Talk About skin Care, Beauty And Health Tips

So, that I can work somewhere as a skin care professional. I can't seem to find a school or how many hours I need to take to just get enough schooling to where I can get hired (not necessarily a degree in it). Where should I look? The beauty colleges all say that if you want to be a cosmetologist, you have to have 600 hours. But, I don't want to study hair and makeup and nails, just skin care.
Thank you! (please, no spam)

Answer

Vitamin C skin care?

I took a biology class and I learned that Vitamin C is water soluble.
So, it cannot cross cell membrane, which means you can't just apply it on skin because it wont work.
And there are so many vitamin C skin care, since it cant cross the cell membrane, doesn't it mean it wont work??
and why do stores still selling it?

Answer
You're right. You benefit from taking Vitamin C when you take it internally and it's metabolised.

As for skincare products, most of it's to do with marketing. You're an astute buyer but there aren't many of you.

From 8 years in pharmacy, the health of your skin is mainly determined by your genes (good skin seems to run in families) and other such things as the amount of collagen in your skin (again, to do with genes), hydration (keeping up your fluids), and limited sun exposure (sorry, surfers, but you don't usually have to-die-for skin!).

I'm a 15 year old girl and I have oily (sometimes dry), acne prone skin. I used the Clearasil: Daily Facial Wash, trying to get rid of the access oil on my skin. Unfortunately, when I use this, I get a weird rash on my cheeks (beside my nose, under my eyes) and my forehead dries out (and my skin starts flaking), forcing me to use a moisturizer that leaves a think, oily residue on my skin. I love the Clearasil Pore Cleansing Pad, but they don't seem to help my break outs. Proactive is to expensive (remember, I'm on a middle class, teenage budget in a crappy economy.) I love the Avon: Pore-Fection Refining mask, but I've run out and I'm having trouble finding a replacement product in stores. (I know Avon isn't sold in stores).

And this brings me to my questions:
Is there a moisturizer that won't leave an oily residue on my skin?
Does anyone know good fining mask similar to the Avon one that is available in stores (Wal-Mart, Kmart, Rite Aid)?

Thanks,

Answer
I would recommend using Avon's Clear-Skin Professional. It targets and treats on the spot and is a great Acne Treatment. People believe in the myth that drinking a lot of water will clear up breakouts, that is false. Water improves skin's hydration but genetic and environmental factors can result in increased oil production, a key contributor to acne. I would recommend the Deep Pore Cleansing Scrub and the Oil Free lotion SPF 15. If you don't have an Avon Representative to assist you please allow me to provide service for you. You can order your items from my site youravon.com/janarussell. I am providing free shipment on your first order. And it only takes less than 7 days to receive your items.

Witch Hazel ALWAYS made my skin break out. So did Noxema.

The best thing you can do is to wash your face every morning and every night before bed (without fail).

When my oil was at its worst, I kept a bottle of Alcohol-Free toner in my locker to use in between classes, or you can use Olay daily face wipes --

I know it doesn't make much sense, but it is really important that the product that you use NOT contain alcohol. Even if it cleans your skin, it will over-dry it and your skin will not only be red and irritated, but the natural sloughing off of your skin won't occur, and the extra skin cells that remain on your skin will clog your pores and cause more breakouts!

The most important thing is keeping your skin clean, but you have to be sure not to over-dry it in the process.

Good Luck!
