During the Summer months your skin is exposed to a lot of different elements such as sun, chlorine, sand, salt water and wind all of which take their toll. This can weather our skin leaving it looking blotchy, dull and discolored. In order to protect itself from these harsh elements our skin reacts by increasing its surface layer of dead skin cells. The resulting effect is a dry and dull complexion.
The good news is there are certain things you can do to rectify the damage and bring back your radiant skin. The post Summer months are the perfect time for corrective skin care, especially targeting skin surface imperfections. These transitional months offer a perfect opportunity for skin brightening and peel season with an aim of regenerating and resurfacing our skin. All of NATPURE® designer peels are infused full of anti-inflammatory and nourishing botanicals & herbs which are guaranteed to give your skin a fresh glowing radiance. What’s great is that they can be used as a stand alone peel procedure or incorporated into your other skin treatments for enhanced action and results.
What Is A Peel?
A peel is a skincare treatment that is applied to the skin on the face, neck and hands. The activated series of reactions cause a breakup of the cellular glue that holds your keratin skin cells together to disintegrate your outer epidermal skin layer. The aim of a peel treatment is to uncover a smoother, clearer, brighter and younger underlayer of your skin. One reason skin peels are so popular is because they can be used for a variety of different skin conditions or issues. You can explore the full selection of NATPURE® Peels here.
Enzyme vs Chemical Peel
The two most common and main types of exfoliating peels are enzymatic and chemical.
Enzyme Peels
Enzyme peels are known to be more gentle by nature than chemical peels and traditionally are used alongside other skin treatments. Enzymes are keratin catalysts, meaning they digest the dead skin cells on the surface. They offer the perfect booster to any facial or even a bi-monthly skin pick-me-up from home.
Double Enzyme Treatment Tip ???? If you have sensitive skin, Duo-Phase Enzyme Peeling Masque offers the most gentle enzymatic exfoliation. If you are looking to go a little deeper with your results, even safe on sensitive skin, first exfoliate your skin with the Dead Sea Salt Crystal Peel. Massage the gel and roll the dead skin cells of the surface until the skin becomes bone dry. Follow right over with a layer of the Duo-Phase Enzyme Peeling Masque. Leave on for at least 10 minutes. You can do this step with steam, a wet hot towel or prior to taking a steam shower if treating your skin from home.
Chemical Peels
There are different kinds of chemical peels, Alpha (AHA) and Beta (BHA) Hydroxy Acids are the most common. Typically, chemical peels are known to provide a deeper action because of their smaller molecular size which allows for the peel to work its way down more easily into the lower layers of the epidermis. With the exception of NATPURE® Jessner’s Peel which is a medium depth peel, all of the other NATPURE® designer peels do not require any down-time. This allows them to be versatile and accessible for all clients with any lifestyle. Chemical peels exfoliate the skin by way of acids breaking up the outer layer of skin. The end result leaves behind a fresh layer of more radiant looking skin. Chemical peels are better at penetrating the deeper layers of the skin resulting in a deeper cleanse and boost in cell regeneration. The most popular and multi-functional peel is the Alp Rose Stem Cells 40% Glycolic Botanical Peel.
