Dazzlingsitar - Tanveer786 is popular in this village because he owns an aesthetic center in the east coast. He's not a doctor, but knows a lot about skincare.

I think monthly facials are wonderful. It's a great way to pamper yourself. The best thing to do is talk to the aesthetician prior to your facial and discuss that state of your skin and what you want to accomplish. The aesthetician will evaluate your skin and do each facial according to your needs on that particular visit. From my experience, I like to go to the same person on a regular basis because that person gets to know your skin. Aestheticians are not physicians, and will not perform wonders. They can however, help you with minor problems and really relax you.

As for those microdermabrasion home kits, I tried the Estee Lauder stuff earlier this year and found no improvement. Perhaps those are bogus products or there are other brands out there that are better. I mentioned it to my dermatologist and he shrugged it off as incomparable to seeing a professional.

Chots - yeah that was the one I borrowed off you in canada!..lol
Lvely - Apparantly beauticians recommend you start having facials at like 25 or something cos your skin starts to mature around then.oops I have left it a bit late..but better late than never I guess..
Cateyes - Who's Tanveer? where is he? Bring him to me..lol

The outbreak of spots after a facial are not a result of a reaction..they just come out because your skin draws out the impurities!..its all good..better out than in I guess..in the long run..definitley not for Eid!..

Begsy--yea that is exactly what I thought when I heard about chemical peels, but they are def not bad. Has anyone tried any of the microdermabrasion things out on the market. I think Loreal has one. I think they may even have some other peels and such out on the market. Has anyone tried any and if so what were the results?

i have that SAME issue. and that's why i find facials counter-productive. i think id still like to try one someday - it's just there's always some sort of occassion where i cant take that risk of battling zits.

Where did you buy it the chemical peel kit? what were the side effects?
I want to try one...im just scared. Dont wanna look messed up for Eid.

Do they have it at Sally Beauty Supply? I love that store and its right down the street from me.

yeah ive noticed that with that alpha hydroxy mask by st yves...it sucks out everything..

u know i tried this new Vita-K Chemical peel kit...and its really good

Yeah lvely-
Thats what I've heard which is the precise reason Ive never had one! I am blessed with clear skin so if i ever see a pimple I have to keep messing with it and it turns into a blemish.

But from what Ive heard thats what happens but its because all the impurities are brought to the surface so its a good thing.
