When it comes to skin products, it’s what’s inside that counts. We sat down with skincare expert, Sherril Dalitz from The Brow and Skin Studio to know more.
New clients often ask why the products they are using fail to give results. I ask them, “what are you using that works for you?” More often than not the answer is “nothing”. The solution lies with the ingredients, and while the multitude of products may seem difficult to navigate, we can break it down.
Not all products are created equally; cosmeceuticals are a combination of pharmaceutics and cosmetics and are where science meets beauty. They bring physiological changes to our skin and remain the key to achieving beautiful, healthy skin for life. These products contain bioavailable ingredients, which simply means delivering active ingredients into the skin and are not only guaranteed to remain stable but ensure the most effective rate of absorption to deliver excellent results. A really important point to remember is no absorption = no results.

While there are many great ingredients, some to remember are Vitamin C that brightens and provides sun protection in sunscreen and Vitamin A or Retinol that increases cell turnover. Climbazole is an extraordinary breakthrough ingredient used to boost the effects of retinoids in the skin without causing irritation and AHA’S or BHA’S remove dead cells, increase absorption, hydration and promote anti-ageing. Niacinimide is also known as B3 and is one of the most potent anti-inflammatory ingredients in skin care today to tackle problems like breakouts or redness. Peptides are an amazing ingredient that gives extra hydration, clarity, firmness and brightness to any skin, and sunscreen is an absolute must. Keep it simple – if you use a cleanser, Vitamin C, Retinol and a good SPF sunscreen, your skin will love you and the changes will be instant.
This is just a small example of some wonderful ingredients that can effectively inhibit pigmentation, resurface and protect our skins, increase absorption, plump up our epidermal mattress which gives volume to skin and fights ageing. Always remember to get great advice, our well-trained therapists are always happy to guide you to ensure you make the right decision. We only have one skin – cherish it.
