Why Professional Skincare?

Sometimes its hard to understand the difference between the skincare products given to you by your dermatologist or your licensed esthetician, and the products available in national boutiques, department stores or the drugstore. I mean really, what's the difference? It's a big one.

Anyone vs. You

Drugstore and Department store products are formulated to suit the needs of the masses. The concept behind them is a 'one size fits all' model to satisfy a very wide range of skincare concerns a little bit at a time. Many OTC products have multiple claims on them such as hydration, soothing, and nourishing, using small doses at the same time. Lower percentages of active ingredients also reduce the risk of unwanted results if a product is purchased by someone that it is not correctly suited.

Products available from Estheticians and MDs are created for a very narrow range of consumers, the needs of the individual. Professional products formulated with high amounts of active ingredients that target one specific condition.  Increased activity yields quick results but also increases the need for the right product to be matched perfectly to a consumers skin to avoid reactions. Thus the need for a professional recommendation.

When you purchase from licensed professionals, you are also benefitting from education that pros receive to help achieve the best results possible which may include methods of use and product synergies not listed on the labels.

Feel free to pick our brains.
