Our skin is constantly changing, and thankfully so is the realm of possibilities to treat it!

One of our favorite things about Natura Bisse is the incredible dedication to science they have and pour into the making of their products.

They have been laboring over their latest pride and joy, Diamond Life Infusion, $590, for the last couple of years. The new patent-pending active ingredient was discovered when scientists were actually researching potential cures to cancer, when they noticed the incredible benefits to the skin.

You know how sometimes you see a woman whose age is completely elusive to you? She looks so young and vivacious, but you know she looks younger than she is…and then there are women who are the reverse. Who through stress, illness, or overexposure to the sun looks a decade or more older than she is…these characteristics that age your skin are not related to “chronological age” (the actual number of years you have been alive), but on your “aging biomarkers” (the relative “age” of your skin based on other factors). When Natura Bisse ran their tests, women saw a reduction in 3.9 years in their aging biomarkers after using it once a day for 7 consecutive days. That is incredible! Imagine how remarkable the results may be after a month or even longer! This means that there are visible and almost immediate changes in the skin of those who use it. Don’t believe us? Come in to Facade and ask us for a few samples. See for yourself! For even more information read this great blog entry!

This product is designed to be used as a SERUM once daily AT NIGHT. A little bit goes a long way, so this product should last a couple of months.  It is designed to be used AFTER your toner and BEFORE your moisturizer, and can be combined with any other system from Natura Bisse (diamond, the cure, C+C, Top 10, Essential Shock, etc).

In other news, They have begun to re-package their ever-popular Oxygen line! Don’t stress, they haven’t touched the formula. Just updated the packaging to the new, fresh oxygen-infused blue!

PLUS for a limited time only, when you buy the Oxygen Complex, $145, from us, you will also receive a full-size Oxygen Mousse cleanser ($48 value) FREE! If you haven’t tried it, the Oxygen Mousse was added to the collection this past Fall. It’s light, pillowy texture is great at removing makeup and excess sebum while infusing the skin with essential oxygen to restore radiance.

Also launched recently, was the new Diamond White Brilliant Cream, $215. This cream is a part of the continually expanding Diamond White collection which targets and lightens hyper-pigmentation. This treatment cream can be used during the day (for those who don’t like a sunscreen) or used during the night only (for those already enjoying the Diamond White SPF50 during the day). By infusing their proprietary lightening ingredients in every step of your skin care regime you will see results faster. These products are designed to work in tandem to give you smooth, evenly-pigmented skin.

Last, but not least, they have also added to their C+C body collection! As in the other products in this line, C+C stands for Vitamin C + Collagen. Both of which are found in this product. The vitamin C is an antioxidant that repairs skin damage and even can help PREVENT damage caused by the sun. This refreshing C+C Vitamin Splash, $55, lightens your spirit with a fresh scent like it was bottled right from an orange grove. The mist it provides instantly quenches skin. Great to refresh at the pool or beach, or even to bring a smile to your face when you WISH you were at the pool or beach and you’re at the office instead!

We’ve all been there: you applied sunscreen–maybe even re-applied, but got burned anyway. Once it’s happened, there’s no going back; but there ARE things you can do to help alleviate the pain and speed your skin’s recovery.

May is actually skin cancer awareness month–which is ideal since in many of the United States it marks the opening of local pools, summer vacation, and generally more time spent outdoors. I encourage you to practice prevention by wearing sunscreen, reapplying, wearing a hat, and staying indoors or in the shade during the time when the sun’s rays are strongest. But in the event you’ve sustained a burn despite this, here’s what to do:

1.) Take ibuprofen. Everyone knows sunburns hurt–but for some reason, not everyone thinks about taking pain medicine for it! Not only does it help with the sensations of pain, but ibuprofen also actually has anti-inflammatory effects–and that’s exactly what sunburn is-inflammation. Take it according to label directions.

2.) Use Aloe Vera Gel. Ooooh so original. I know everyone has heard this before. But what haven’t you heard?

• AVOID ALOE VERA GELS WITH ALCOHOL AS AN INGREDIENT. Surprisingly–most aloe vera gels found in drugstores DO have alcohol as an ingredient. Alcohol can be incredibly drying for the skin and is therefor incredibly counterproductive. So when choosing aloe LOOK AT THE INGREDIENTS. Generally speaking, the gels that are clear are less likely to have alcohol added. Green or blue goo–are much more likely. CVS makes a good one, plus you can find several in natural foods stores OR you can grow your own aloe plant at home! When needed, simply break apart a leaf and squeeze or scrape out the jelly-like sap. Apply directly to skin. It’s so effective, even hospitals use it on 2nd and 3rd degree burn victims.
• FOR PARTICULARLY BAD BURNS, LOOK FOR ONE SPIKED WITH LIDOCAINE.
  Lidocaine is a topical pain-killer. Unfortunately, something’s gotta give: if it contains lidocaine, it will also contain alcohol. I reserve using this for a particularly bad sunburn where the pain is really intense. Try using the formula with lidocaine the first couple of days to take the edge off–then try switching to the pure aloe vera formula after to surge the skin with moisture. Be SURE to follow directions on the label- lidocaine is a powerful ingredient, and you CAN use too much. Even though you want the pain gone yesterday there have even been reported cases of DEATH caused by misuse of topical products like icy hot. Just like other over-the-counter drugs, though, it is safe when used according to directions.

3.)Become a foodie. Try bathing in a luke-warm bath infused with cucumber slices and chamomile tea. Both of which have moisturizing, soothing properties on the skin.

4.) Be sure to drink plenty of water. Your skin and body can easily become dehydrated from a day soaking up too much sun. Be sure to replenish it.

5.)Up your antioxidants and protein.

• internally: try taking vitamin C which boosts your immune system (and therefor your body’s ability to heal) and taking fish oil, which helps lubricate the skin from the inside out–if it also happens to have DHA it also has anti-inflammatory benefits as well.
• externally: Try Darphin Aromatic Seaweed Bath and Shower Gel, $70 for 17 oz. Algae or seaweed proteins help moisten and strengthen damaged skin. Also, absolutely fabulous for repairing stressed skin is Natura Bisse‘s C+C Vitamin collection. The C+C Vitamin Complex, $190 for 1 oz, has the highest concentration of active ingredients to quench skin on your face, neck, and chest with powerful antioxidant vitamin C, to repair free radical damage plus collagen to firm and strengthen skin.  The C+C Vitamin Body Cream, $95 for 8.8 oz, provides these same things plus added moisture: great for arms, legs, back or tummy.

6.) Avoid exfoliating your skin. (For now.)I’m always touting the benefits of exfoliating your skin–but let the clarisonic, scrubs, and peels have a few weeks off. Your skin is already trying to re-generate and turn over, and doesn’t need assistance from these types of products. Not to mention using something that feels like sandpaper on already burned skin is less than comfortable. Also discontinue any products with AHA’s in them—cleansers, serums, and other products containing these will really STING!

7.) Cover up. Wear light-weight long-sleeved tissue T’s or other lightweight clothing that covers if you must be in the sun with your sunburn. (Not to mention, of course- sunscreen!)
