    Think dental care:\u00a0 We all know how to show up daily as an integral part of our dental hygiene.\u00a0 And we know that if we forget to floss and brush – that we will pay dearly.<\/p>

    Think skin care:\u00a0 Although we may be showing up daily, many of us drop the ball regarding proper care of our skin because we simply just dont understand how.\u00a0\u00a0 Confusion regarding skin products and cosmeceuticals is common – and the multi-billion dollar Beauty industry contributes to much of the white noise and misinformation that gets served to us.\u00a0 Most people fret over what moisturizer to use – and yet do little to protect or nourish their skin.<\/p>

    At Spring Skin we have made specific choices in skin care lines and products that are worth your investment.\u00a0 They include multiple but simple elements that contribute towards an effective skin care regimen.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

        It may not sound sexy, but sunscreen should be foundational to your skin care regimen every day and all year round. Think of sun protection as an insurance policy against future skin cancers and for maintaining your skin\u2019s health. Skin health in turn subtends skin Beauty.<\/p>

        We all want radiant skin in the summer, with a beautiful sun-kissed healthy glow and less make-up. And although the sun may feel good for our souls – its not so great for our skin.<\/p>

        In much of BC, including Salt Spring island, our climate is temperate enough that you cannot rely on the sense of HEAT to let you know your skin is burning and getting damaged – even in the summer. And while most of us know to be smart when we\u2019re on the beach we need to remember to bring the same vigilance to protecting our skin while running errands or going for a hike. The sun doesnt know or care what you are doing – in all situations the sun can do its damage! in the short run as a sunburn – in the long run as skin cancers, wrinkles and aging spots.<\/p>

        Be Sun Smart:<\/h4>
        1. Wear a broad rimmed hat and sunglasses<\/li>
        2. Wear sun protective clothing<\/li>
        3. Apply broad-spec SPF of 30 or higher; and re-apply every 2 hours or as needed<\/li>
        4. Apply topical anti-oxidants to your skin to super-charge the efficacy of your sun screen<\/li><\/ol>

          Inflammaging of skin occurs when oxidative stress, left unchecked, damages our skin. This happens when free radicals are formed due to exposure to pollutants, toxins and UV light that bombard our skin. These free radicals are unstable, toxic substances that can do much damage and inflammaging of our skin.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

          Anti-oxidants:<\/h4>
          • Anti-oxidants are antidotes to free radical formation, helping to neutralize them before they do their damage to your skin.<\/li>
          • Anti-oxidant rich skin can be achieved with an anti-oxidant rich diet, supplements, and most potently with special topical formulations of anti-oxidants.<\/li>
          • Vitamin C is a free radical quencher for skin and it needs to be specially formulated in the right concentrations so that it can do its job.<\/li>
          • Vitamin C and E work synergistically to scavenge free radicals.<\/li>
          • Antioxidants dont replace the need for your sunscreen but they help your sunscreen work better to prevent sunburns and damage. They essentially supercharge the efficacy of your sunscreen to protect you – a very potent anti-aging combination!<\/li>
          • Peptides: There are many different peptides, but all of them are proteins, that can help with collagen production and skin rejuvenation<\/li>
          • Retinol, Retinoids and Retinoic acid is the one class of ingredients that contain Vitamin A and have decades of solid scientific date behind them.\u00a0 Formulations have been improved over the years and they are now much more effective and well tolerated.\u00a0 They help normalize skin cell turnover, improve collagen production, stabilize pigment and help to brighten the skin<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
