For all of you Yogis attending this year’s Hanuman Festival in downtown Boulder, Barris Laser & Skincare has got your back… literally! While y’all are raising the vibration through invigorating yoga classes, inspirational music, and SEVA (selfless service for the betterment of a community), we at Barris have put together some Image Skincare products that will combat any yoga-afflicted skin problems you may encounter.  Consider stocking these as staples for your yoga bag, to match that inner peace with that outer glow!

The “Yoga-Afflicted” skin I’m referring to ranges in problems like:

  • Extra Redness

  • Extra Oil Production

  • Extra Pore-clogging sweat and residue

  • General Dehydration

Cleansers

While you’re focusing your Pranayama, your pores are opening and releasing toxins from your body via sweat, encouraged by physical heat and the inner heat you create through your Asanas. Cleanse with the Ormedic Balancing Facial Cleanser post yoga sessions. The aloe-based organic-blend gel cleanser of chamomile, green tea and oat kernel extract help restore balance; calming redness, and gently yet effectively removing oil and impurities from the skin.

On-The-Go-Cleansing

Clear Cell Salicylic Clarifying Pads are made for on-the-go deep cleansing post physical activity. Each pad has a Salicylic and Glycolic acid blend to exfoliate and clear deeply clogged pores, remove excess surface oil and bacteria and hault oil production. These pads are drying, so follow up with a sunscreen after use. Image Skincare offers great sunscreens through their Prevention + line.

Serums

Now that your pores are clean and still delicately opened (just like your chakras), continue nourishing with the Ormedic Balancing Anti-Oxidant Serum. Ultra-light, ultra-hydrating, and ultra-packed with organic Japanese green tea that prevents DNA damage to the skin. The copper-complex peptide accelerates wound healing, cell regeneration and stimulates elastin and collagen synthesis. Hello Healthy Glow!

Our serum that quenches dehydrated skin and is all about pure hydration is the Ageless Total Pure Hyaluronic Filler. Hyaluronic Acid binds water to cells, holding 1,000x it’s weight in water, boosting elasticity and resiliency to the skin. And Vitamin E provides the protective barrier to hold the nourishment in and keep the bad stuff out. It plumps fine lines, leaving skin smooth and drenched with hydration.

Hyaluronic

Sunscreen

And most important when attending an outdoor Yoga Festival like Hanuman, moisturize and protect your skin against environmental exposures with any sunscreen from Image Skincare’s Prevention + line. Each moisturizer has a built in broad spectrum high UVA/UVB sunscreen with antioxidants to prevent free-radical damage. Choose according to your skin type from hydrating to oil-free matte, even a tinted version for that natural glow to stay flawless! Namaste!

For the teeny yoga bag, a travel size kit of almost every product mentioned for the “Yoga-Afflicted” skin is in our Post Treatment Travel/Trial Kit
