HAPPY NOVEMBER BEAUTIES,

As we begin this month my mind & body are connected with this phase of transitioning into shorter days & longer nights. It begins a feeling of nesting as our circadian rhythms adjust to earlier bedtimes & earlier wake times. It is also a time of the year that we begin to notice significant changes in our skin. Clients will tell me they feel dry or patchy…..others blotchy…..itchy in general your summer glow is gone. The heat & humidity actually do wonders for our skin. Should you do a peel? If so what kind? Is there downtime? These are just a few questions I want to answer, & give you some solutions as well as some facts & fictions.

Peels are wonderful to give your skin a refreshing feel & look. Lactic acid is the most gentle, glycolic, can be done in different strengths, TCA or chemical peels are more advanced & require downtime. Do you have to do a peel? Today you don’t need to see peeling to achieve results….Glycolic acids in formulas Glycolic Glow RX I created exactly with this in mind. Combining alpha & beta acids leave skin glowing, not red & flaky. The acid dissolves the cement between skin cells, shedding isn’t visible to the naked eye. Your skin visibly glows & retains moisture. Scrubbing your skin is a NO NO, as its a marketing tool to sell more products. As we age our skin cycle slows down, of course other factors like environmental, lifestyle choices, how we sleep are all contributing factors of skin turnover retaining healthy glow.

Treatments like microdermabrasion mechanically exfoliate, assisting this process of skin renewal & topically shedding dead skin cells. Peels can also achieve this mild to aggressive in the treatment room. Remember that your everyday routine at home is where the difference will be seen. Once a month getting a professional treatment, using the right products at home, the right way is key….

Balance as I always remind my clients…..if you are looking for that rosy glow to add to your skincare routine head over to the shopping cart & order your glycolic glow, under the HEALING section. You can layer it over your Daily Addiction in the daytime, or use it alone at nighttime.

You can also use your Goddess Remedy during the day or Hydraoverdose, & use the Glycolic Glow RX at nighttime only…..any questions feel free to email me at info@maryannanardone.com

For those looking to remove brown spots, & hyperpigmentation I recommend TCA peels, which I have been doing for over 20 years, mild to aggressive with amazing results.. consultations are complimentary to determine your specific needs & discuss downtime & results. I am currently doing full body areas for clients on arms, legs & décolleté as this is the season to achieve great results……your future self will thank you!

Love & Blessings
