Just as the weather transitions from warmer days to cooler ones, your skin begins a transition of its own. This is the time to ready your skin for the impending cooler weather, keeping it moisturized and fresh for Fall. A few key ingredients in your skincare regimen can do just that.
Vitamin C
The best word to describe the power of this antioxidant vitamin is REPAIR. Vitamin C can help heal damage done from environmental factors (free radicals) to age-related causes (texture and tone). This wonderful vitamin increases collagen production in your skin, giving us that healthy “glow” we all desire. It’s an anti-inflammatory, redness reducer, and brightener of pigment all-in-one. Image Skincare’s MD Reconstructive Serum with Tri-Complex™ is their most potent stable topical form of Vitamin C, and we have it specially priced at 20% off for all of September!!!
Hyaluronic Acid
This ingredient is all about MOISTURE. Hyaluronic Acid is a natural key component of the dermis. It holds 1,000x its weight in water and binds that water to cells providing strength and elasticity to your skin. It plumps fine lines and wrinkles, and using it over time, your skin will look younger. Boost your moisture game with Image Skincare’s Total Pure Hyaluronic Filler with 18% Hyaluronic Acid, and Vitamins B5 and E for a most supple complexion.
Collagen
Collagen also occurs naturally in the body as a protein that is prominent in the make up of connective tissue. It is a major BUILDING BLOCK of your skin. As we age, we lose the ability to produce collagen at the rate we did when we were younger, which is why almost every skincare product out there has a “collagen boosting” property to it. One way to boost collagen production is through Peptides. Image Skincare’s MAX Stem Cell Serum has 4 different Peptides that SUPER boost collagen renewal, stimulation and production with maximum amounts of active ingredients. What’s even better? It’s formulated by the Vectorize- Technology™, an anti-aging complex that delivers active ingredients into the skin in a sphere that opens time released up to 48 hours for a longer lasting and intense effect; thus, penetrating “building block” ingredients deeper into the skin, WIN WIN!
Zinc
Zinc is a healing ingredient like Vitamin C, but it’s best known in sunscreens to PROTECT you from the harmful rays of the sun. Even in the Fall (and Winter for that matter), we must continue to protect our skin from damaging rays and free radicals with sunscreen. The sun is actually just as dangerous when it’s cloudy or distant. Harmful UVA/UVB rays penetrate just as easily no matter the time of year. Image Skincare’s Prevention+ Daily Hydrating Moisturizer has 18% Zinc Oxide, and is a hydrating moisturizer.
The last thing you want for your skin in the Fall is to look washed out. Afraid of the high Zinc content washing you out? Image Skincare’s Prevention+ Daily Tinted Moisturizer is made with a tinted Zinc. You’re Welcome!
Remember as the seasons change, so does your skin. Prep your skin by incorporating regular gentle exfoliation to remove the dead skin cells from the season before, allowing your new Fresh and Flawless Fall skin care ingredients to have better absorption. The glow starts now!
Transition into Autumn by attending Boulder’s Fall Fest, located in downtown Boulder on Pearl Street. There’ll be local food, music, entertainment for kids, and the Firefly Handmade Markets lining the street. It’ll be a glorious place to “glow” 🌟
