best moisturizer in a bar, Indulge Pure Originals

Hugged grandma lately? Skin loose and see through? . The translucent sheer paper thin skin reminds you of crepe paper. That is why it’s described as dry crepey skin. It does tear easily and our older women and men are self concious of their thin, see through skin, therefore; they camoflage by wearing long sleeves.

Crepey skin in our 40’s?

When we are younger, we moisturize with creams and lotions. As we age, we are more concerned about whether we have the potential of falling taking a step out of bed. How do I know that? I asked my clients what their greatest fear was. It wasn’t dry skin, it was the fear of falling. Older people have lost the confidence to once do what they used to do no matter if their mind is sharp as a tack. The last think they are thinking about is their dry crepe skin.

3 best ways to prevent crepey skin

Skin loses elasticity as we age because of dehydration and other factors. There’s no way to completely avoid crepey skin, but there are a few ways to delay it.

1. Stick to the shade. The most important thing to do, says Dr. Kassouf is to stay out of the sun as much as possible. Also, protect your skin when you’re in the sun with a hydrating sun skin.
2. Make skin hydration a priority. Keeping skin well-hydrated with a good moisturizer helps prevent injury that creates or worsens crepiness.
3. Pay attention to ingredients. Make sure your moisturizer contains alpha or beta hydroxy acids, such as salicylic acid, lactic acid or glycolic acid. These products lubricate and plump the skin, helping reduce that crepey appearance, Dermatologist, Dr. Amy Kassouf says. We persoally recommend our Indulge Pure Originals oatmeal soap that is gentle enough to exfoliate plus moisturizing attributes such as goats milk that still cleanses without the dryness.

As Dr. Amy Kassouf says, they were able to trace most of the crepey results from sun damage from the early 20’s, 30’s. As we age we lose the elastic and collagen required to help our skin “snap back” now it just lays loose and crepey.

Oatmeal soap 3.5 oz exfoliates gently crepey skin

Older skin gets dry, flaky kind of like a sun burn that is peeling, only it’s DRY SKIN. If they live alone, it’s difficult to wash their backs to exfoliate on their own.  Using a dry brush on skin is essential to slough off the dry flakes daily. Although the skin is frail, thin and sensitive, try not to brush to hard but certainly make sure you exfoliate with a gentle body scrub, gommage or exfoliating soap such as Indulge Pure Originals Oatmeal soap. $8.50 for 3.5 oz soap that gently exfoliates without tearing up the skin.

This particular soap smells wonderful. It’s created with natural oatmeal, almond oil, goats milk that moisturizes the skin keeping it supple. As I stated in the beginning, crepey skin can tear and is fragile. Once the skin tears, infection can set in, it can be bluish like a bruise. Keeping the skin hydrated is a priority to looking and feeling better and to prevent infection.

To have the best result, try our Indulge Pure Originals body butter bar in the shower. Hold it under the warm shower water to soften the lotion body butter bar. Apply to your wet skin and massage the lotion from the bar onto your body parts while you are still in the shower. Do not rinse off, step out of the shower/bath then pat dry. Be very careful stepping out so as not to slip on the floor. It is a lotion that penetrates naturally. PAT dry a towel. No rubbing or you will rub off your lotion.

At Indulge Salon, we recommend following up with Indulge Pure Originals Cream/lotions to lock in the moisture for the day. Our lotions and creams are vegan, 100% healthy for the skin not loaded with chemicals like other companies. Best used on warm damp skin either during the shower/bath or as soon as you hop out of the shower. As soon as you step out of the shower apply the moisturizer then pat dry.

Pumpkin is not just for in the kitchen either. Our skin care specialists at Indulge Salon,  York Pa have a different spin on pumpkins and so do our clients that have experienced the PUMPKIN RADIANCE FACIAL to give a little more glow to their skin. Pumkin is a great exfoliator naturally because it contains the highest content of Vitamin A and beta-carotene among other fruits.

It has a detoxifying effect in which the natural salicylic and retinoic acids support the digestive aspect of cell turnover. Generally speaking this means that the exfoliation quickly turns over the dead cells and brings new ones to the surface quickly giving you a more translucent glow to your skin giving you a more youthful appearance.

How Skin Peels Work
Skin peels work by removing the outermost layers of the skin. Removing the outermost layers of the skin can repair the damage done by age, sun exposure and skin conditions by allowing smooth, healthy new skin to grow. Chemical peels can lighten skin affected by hyperpigmentation or improve the appearance of

wrinkles and scars. They’re also used to treat skin conditions like acne or remove pre-cancerous growths from the skin.

Rhonda Allison, founder and CEO of Rhonda Allison Cosmeceuticals has been one our favored skin care lines because it gets results. Now when I say results this means that Priscilla, our Sr skin care specialist says that she wants results for our clients and this product line gives it immediately. Some skin may need additional treatments but the results are quicker than other lines she has worked with. The PUMPKIN RADIANCE  FACIAL is perfect for clients aged 35 and older whom have sensitive skin but are looking for results of a chemical peel.

Pumpkin is loaded with fiber, magnesium and potassium. Vitamin E protects agains free radicals and helps combat acne. Pumpkin seed oil contains five of the eight cheical forms of this multitasking powerhouse, making pumpkin ideal skin treatment. Pumpkin seed contains zinc, which is great for controlling hormone levels and oil, and its vitamin content boosts collagen production.

As a woman over 40, I can tell you that my skin is much more of a concern than when I was 20 with tight fresh skin. Now that I look at myself in the morning with a first things first approach to inventorying my body parts to locate how far they have drooped.

replaced the relief of itchy skin with Indulge Pure Originals Body Butter Bar. I used to use these old fashioned rollers with bristles like my grandmother used to use to curl her hair

I personally have had the most dry itchy skin you can imagine – around my ankles! I know its weird but unfortunately I was going through a really stressful time in my life that lasted over 6 months. I would wake up itching my ankles. I used anything that would scratch it such as one of those old fashioned rollers that had the bristles on it and would scratch it until relief. I slept with it just in case I needed it. My ankles would slightly bleed. Iknow that sounds gross but I wasn’t getting relief during my stress time of my life. I would use an old brush that would work it until it hurt. anyone that has had this problem knows what I’m talking about.

Relief is here. After many months of this problem and not getting enough sleep, I contacted a formulater to help me create a moisturizer that I liked. Non greasy, non slippery and yet I needed it to moisturize my skin without the chemicals. Took some months but we found the solution in the Indulge Pure Originals Body Butter. We created the easy to use bar that fits a womans hands easily. Can be used in the shower, can be used with warm water running over it to soften it and it actually works without all of the chemicals that are in so many of the products in the stores and on line. You found it and it works and its easy to use without the maintenance.

Indulge Pure Originals Cocoa Butter Gold Bar mosturizing bar

After creating this amazing body butter bar, we named it Indulge Pure Originals Body Butter Bar that smells amazing naturally. It also comes in other fragrances such as Unscented, Coconut, Citrus and Cocoa Butter

We have these available at all of our Indulge Salon locations in York Pa and Greensboro, GA. We can send them to you just call 717.846.4424 or 717.718.4465 overnight to get you that relief asap.

California Avocados are a fresh, natural, wholesome part of a healthful diet.  They’re irresistibly rich in flavor and, avocados also provide vital nutrients and phytochemicals.  Diets rich in fruits and vegetables may reduce the risk of some types of cancer and other chronic diseases.

There are 13 vitamins that the body absolutely needs: vitamins A, C, D, E, K and the B vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, biotin, vitamin B-6, vitamin B-12 and folate). Avocados naturally contain many of these vitamins.

I have some favorite recipes that I love to use during the summer that give you regular Vitamin B’s onthat are not absorbed by the body. I love the buttery texture when I sink a bite of these in my mouth. You don’t even need dressing with these. Eat them alone or marry them with some lovely red tomatoes that are rich in Licopene.

• VITAMIN K (6.3 mcg/8% DV per serving) – Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays an important role in blood clotting. It is known as the clotting vitamin, because without it blood would not clot. Some studies indicate that it helps in maintaining strong bones in the elderly. Did you know that we can now add Vitamin K to our skin care treatments to help infuse your skin topically to help you achieve more of a skin balance?
  • VITAMIN E (.590 mg/4% DV per serving) – A fat-soluble vitamin that acts as an antioxidant that protects the body tissue from damage caused by unstable substances called free radicals.  Free radicals can harm cells, tissues, and organs.  They are believed to play a role in certain conditions associated with aging.  Vitamin E is important in the formation of red blood cells and helps the body use vitamin K.  At lower levels, vitamin E may help protect the heart.  Vitamin E also plays a role in healthy skin and hair.
  • LUTEIN (81 mcg) – A carotenoid (a natural pigment) that may be associated with a lower risk of eye diseases. Lutein is an important antioxidant that may help your eyes stay healthy while maintaining the health of your skin. It provides nutritional support to your eyes and skin and has been linked to promoting healthy eyes through reducing the risk of macular degeneration, the leading cause of blindness in adults 65 years of age and older.

Here is a quick recipe from Chef Curtis Cooke of The Original Golden Door, an executive spa. Chef Curtis is originally from Texas and when he discovered these Avocados he fell in love and created all types of foods that are healthy and delicious.

Chilled Avocado Soup with Sweet Corn Salad

Serves 4

Soup:

3 Avocados, peeled and chopped

• 2 cups buttermilk
• 2 cups vegetable stock
• 1 tbsp. Tabasco sauce
• sea salt to taste
• In a blender, puree all ingredients, adjusting the consistency with vegetable stock, as needed.

Top with:

• 1 cup sweet corn, grilled and cut from cob
• 1/4 cup red onion, chopped
• 2 tbsp. lime juice
• 1 tbsp. cilanatro, finely chopped ‘

Grill the corn to blister the kernels, shuck and cool. Combine with remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly. Spoon over soup. Certainly feel free to add cilantro, peppers, crab, pink peppercorns or pickled red onions. Thanks Chef Curtis!

I thought this was a great recipe to try. As you may know, my son has to have all of his foods pureed in order to help his brain process the intake of food. This type of food goes in at a slower pace that tells the brain “hey, something is coming!” therefore he can manage the food going into his mouth, on the tongue and can manage to swallow without choking. I’m always searching out recipes that will engage the full senses of vitamins and minerals plus the absolute pleasure of taste. This is one of those recipes that is a keeper.

If you don’t like the texture of Avocado’s, feel free to have your infusion of vitamins into your skin to keep your skin rejuvenating with our newest facial treatment that includes a healthy dose of Vitamin K. We started carrying a newer skin care line that is loaded with enzymes that will infuse the skin with customized minerals to help your specific skin’s needs. No need to overload with unnecessary nutrients. It’s always best to give your skin what it needs from the inside out but we all need a little help from our friends.

high altitudes can dry out the skin

Is your skin affected with air travel? You may be right with the education we have around skincare that is more advanced, skin does have a tendency to dehydrate while in the air. As you know, I have many adventures that are never the same when it comes to traveling with the airlines. The latest adventure was last weekend when traveling to see a very good friend of mine in Charleston, SC. I was in Charlotte awaiting the next flight to complete my travels when they had already delayed my flight twice then they flat out cancelled it. I was sitting at the bar ready to have my Peach Smash and then a Kaluah beverage to follow when I received a tap on the shoulder from a woman named Becky. Very attractive and said “hey, isn’t that some of the people that are supposed to be on our flight?”. I said, “I don’t know, how about I watch your stuff and you check it out.”Becky did to only discover that the airline was offering a BUS to Charleston. I said, “a bus?” I asked Becky to watch my stuff and I was off to find a solution to my problem to get to my friend as quickly as possible. I mosied on over to the counter and asked if they had any helicopters available. The attendant stopped and stared at me amongst the other passengers that were stunned that I would even ask for a helicopter. Certainly we have to figure out what the options are to get from A to B quickly. She informed me quickly by saying, “ma’am, we do not have helicopters available.” I questioned this since they are air travel right? Long story short, I turned around and asked the crowd, “who would like to drive to Charleston with me?” I recruited the best drive crew ever. Roy, Justin and Becky were my driving comrades and Roy did a great job. I was able to catch two naps, great conversation and had the best fun for 3.5 hours to Charleston. Becky’s daughter is a hairstylist in Charleston. Justin is an engineer that navigated us towards the airport and Roy, well Roy was cool and knows how to work out the plan by driving. We did have to make a pitstop at McDonalds for all around beverages. It was so much fun and we beat the the next flight which the airline scheduled for 6:00 p.m. Who has time for that? Lots of people to see. Let’s just say it was worth the drive to get there early. I did make it to the bar that evening and had a few more fruity beverages that does dehydrate your skin if you don’t have enough sleep or water to re-hydrate the skin. As you can see from the Road Warriors photo we were all smiles and happy to greet our destination. I wish all of you traveling such as we did to just go by the seat of your pants and gather some new friends around and drive if you have the option. Driving saves time, makes new friends and creates a memory for all involved. We all agreed what fun it was to have this type of adventure. This is just another day for me but for some, it was way out of their comfort zones. 

If you travel at least 3-4x per week, perhaps you might want more specific treatments for your skin to prevent aging. Call 717.846.4424.

Do you remember that advertisement from the 1970s for a hair removal product? It was a catchy song and sexy ad, but boy did that product cause some serious skin irritation and not really produce the hair free skin it promised.

In summer months when you legs are bare more often than not, daily shaving is just a hassle. Leg waxing has really come a long way and should be seriously considered given the length of time it lasts, providing you with smooth, hair free skin.

With prices starting as reasonably as $35 for the lower legs, it’s worth finding out more on our website at   https://www.indulgesalon.com/leg-waxing or by calling our South York salon at 717.846.4424.

Now that warmer weather is here and you are likely spending more time outside. We cannot say it enough – never leave the house without a sunscreen on your face and exposed skin.

But sunscreen and a good skin care regime are not enough for most people. As the weather turns warmer the skin on your face may be changing — for many people it becomes less dry and a bit more oily.

As you are trying to keep up and adjust with the changes, consider a professional facial with an Indulge Salon skin care technician.  An intense treatment with essential oils can help you not only relax but also lift your skin and leave you with a radiant, clear complexion. To find out more about our Guinot Organic Essential Oils facial treatments visit our website at https://www.indulgesalon.com/organic-essential-oils

Contact our Colonial Shopping Center salon in South York at 717.846.4424 for an appointment or consultation with our skin care technician. Indulge’s technicians are specially trained to analyze your skin and make recommendations for the most beneficial treatments for you.
