Chantal McCulligh What Facial Cleanser Should You Actually Be Using? Cleansing your face twice a day – morning and night – is one of the most important steps within every beauty regime. Whether you’re young and trying to clear up acne, middle-aged and trying to prevent pre-mature wrinkles or are looking to decrease the appearance of fine lines, clean skin is the first step. However, like most things in life, not all facial cleansers are created equally and with the abundance of skincare products lining the shelves, it can seem impossible to know where to start. So, we’ve created this crash course on facial cleansing. Understanding Your Skincare Concerns At any given time, your skin has a variety of dirty, bacteria, oil and dead skin cells burrowing either on the surface or inside your pores. However, it’s important to know what type of debris is causing your skincare concerns, and once you discover that, you can head onto the next steps. While some dirt is simply oil, all dirt comes appears oily when on the skin. This is the result of dirt combining with sebum, natural oils designed to support your skin cells, maintain a healthier barrier and provide moisture. This is important to know because your skin might appear to have an oily complexion but in reality, it could just be that you’re not using a decent facial cleanser. In fact, using facials cleansers for oily skin when that’s not the actual skincare concern can deplete your skin of sebum, causing your skin condition to worsen. Now, fats are just important to your skincare health but dirt likes to stick to the fats, causing your pores to clog to the point where they’re difficult to clean without a facial cleanser. How Facial Cleansers Work Now that you know the breakdown of your skin, it’s time to learn how facial cleansers work. Facial soaps and cleansers work to remove the dirt from your pores before washing it away from the skin.This occurs as a result of a molecule found inside cleansers. This molecule has a lipid soluble (oil-loving) end and a water-soluble (water-loving). What this means is, the cleansers dissolve the dirt (lipid soluble) and then wash it away (water soluble), leaving your skin nice, clean and free of dirt. Different Types of Facial Cleansers As mentioned, not all facial cleansers are created equally. There are some that will clean your skin but subject your cells to harmful toxins, others that combine anti-aging skincare ingredients to the cleanser and the list goes on. So, it’s important to know what types of facial cleansers are out there and more importantly, which ones work best for your specifics. Gentle Facial Cleansers Gentle facial cleansers are exactly what it sounds like – cleansers that use gentle skincare ingredients to clean the skin. Often times, these are used to avoid additional skin concerns. For example, if you have dry skin, you would use a gentle facial cleanser to avoid secondary skin inflammation, redness, irritation, itching, tightness, discomfort, etc.As a general rule of thumb, the less expensive a skincare product is, the harsher it is on your skin, as they don’t cost very much to make. This is why premium skincare or rather, effective skincare costs more. You’re getting gentle, quality cleansing that isn’t going to disrupt your skin’s healthy barrier and cause your skincare concerns to worsen.Often times, gentle facial cleansers use premium, natural skincare ingredients to ensure your skin barrier isn’t disrupted by removing too many healthy oils. A couple of our favorite: Anti- Aging Soothing Facial CleanserEssential Dermaceuticals Ultra Calming Cleanse Activating Skin Cleansers You’ve likely seen “activating” on some skincare cleansers out there and this can be quite confusing. What does it mean? Well, activating skin cleansers are a modern cosmeceutical cleaner that contains quality skincare ingredients that are beneficial to your skin. No parabens or sulfate allowed! More specifically, these types of facial cleansers include various wound healers, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and exfoliation elements to give you the results you’re looking for. And as a bonus of these premium skincare ingredients, you receive additional skincare benefits. Sulfate and Paraben Free Cleansers Speaking of the prior, we can’t go any further without talking about the facial cleansers that are free of sulfates and parabens. Sulfates and parabens are the root of all evil for most things in life – from your skincare products to your shampoos and beyond. They’re harmful chemicals that cause a long list of risks and side effects. As such, sulfate-free and paraben-free facial cleansers have grown in popularity significantly over the years and for all the right reasons. However, cleansers that claim to be “sulfate free” often contain sulfonates, which can quickly have you thinking it’s a bad product. However, sulfonates are, chemically, different from the other molecule and are often used to substitute sulfate. They’re less toxic and cleanse fairly well but they still aren’t natural. Facial Cleansing Oils and Facial Wipes Facial cleansing oils, also known as cleansing balms have high lipid content that’s designed to replenish your skin’s protective layer. Think facial cleansers that moisturize at the same time.While these types of facial cleansers can sometimes be greasy, the high-quality ones will infuse your skin with rich, moisturizing agents. The downside is that the lipids found in these cleansers are far from the natural ones found in your skin, which can leave a residue or film on the surface. This can further clog your pores, increase acne breakouts and make your skincare concerns worse.Additionally, these cleansers that have high lipid content appear to be doing their job but are actually only dissolving debris, without washing it away. Think makeup wipes or facial cleaning wipes; you’re only receiving one of the two actions required for proper cleansing.However, it’s important to note that not all cleansing wipes and makeup removers are bad… As long as they are used in combination with water. Unfortunately, most cleansing wipes don’t require the use of water which means they simply dissolve the dirt and oil and wipe some of it away. So, if you insist on using these wipes (they are a huge time-saver) be sure to rinse or wash your face afterward… Which pretty much defeats the purpose of using them. To each their own. Micellar Waters Another new and innovative facial cleanser that’s taken over the beauty industry lately is micellar water. These cleansers are made up mostly of water, along with tiny particles that have saponification agents alongside the lipid-content. In other words, micellar waters effectively soak up the dirt and mildly wash them out from your skin. The cleanser can then be wiped off or rinsed away with very little water. Unfortunately, you do sometimes have to wash twice in order to get the high-quality cleanse you’re looking for. They’re also more oily than other facial cleansers which can be harmful for oily complexions or acne-prone skin. Antibacterial Cleansers These types of facial cleansers are exactly what they sound like – facial cleansers that have antibacterial elements. However, there has been a lot of talk about these “antibacterial” products as of lately and many studies have even proven that they’re no more effective against bacteria than regular washing. Some even believe antibacterial cleaners to have a worsening effect on human health, as they wash away the good kind of bacteria.Furthermore, antibacterial cleansers are known to disrupt the skin’s healthy balance which can cause more skincare concerns to sprout, such as acne, rosacea, inflammation, etc.What to take away from all of this? The more natural the cleaner, the better – and use a significant amount of water to rinse your facial cleanser off!

Teresa Paquin Melasma – What is it and what causes it? Melasma – What is it and what causes it? Do you experience brown or blue-ish grey patches on your skin? Do these patches appear to look like freckle spots, but are darker and closer together? You may be suffering from melasma. Melasma is a skin condition that is commonly associated with pregnancy. It occurs when the cells that contribute to the color of your skin are overly produced. It is a common skin condition that is harmless and usually fades within a few months. However, there are things you can do to speed up the treatment process. But first, let’s dive in and get a deeper understanding of melasma. What does melasma look like? As explained above. Melasma appears as light brown, dark brown, or blue-gray patches on your skin. They are flat patches that resemble freckles. They usually appear on your face, most commonly affecting the cheeks, upper lip, and forehead. Some may also experience melasma on their forearms. This common skin disorder, most often affects pregnant women, but can be experienced by anyone. Melasma usually will darken and lighten progressively overtime and gets worse in the summer, due to sun exposure. Melasma can appear in six different locations or a combination of these locations:Brachial: shoulders and upper armsCentro facial: forehead, cheeks, nose, and upper lipLateral cheek pattern: both cheeksMalar: cheeks and noseMandibular: jawlineNeck: usually in people aged 50 or older Who is most affected by melasma? This skin condition is completely harmless; however, it can often make people feel self-conscious. But you’re not alone! Melasma is very common and can affect anyone; however, it is most common in pregnant people affecting 15-50 percent. People with fair skin are less likely to be affected than people with darker skin or those who tan well. It usually occurs in people between the ages of 20 and 40 and affects women more than men. Only 10% of men are usually affected my melasma, while 90% of women are. What happens within the skin? The epidermis layer of your skin contains cells that are called melanocytes, and they store and produce the pigment known as melanin. Things like light, heat, ultraviolet radiation, or hormonal stimulation can cause the melanocytes to produce more melanin, which in response, darkens your skin. When a woman is pregnant, the hormonal levels of estrogen and progesterone are increased. These hormones are known to contribute to melasma and that’s why the skin condition is more common amongst pregnant women. This usually tends to fade after the pregnancy. Types of melasma Melasma can appear in three different ways, all having to do with the depth of pigment. It is important to identify what type you have in order to find proper treatment. The first type is epidermal. This type of melasma is dark brown in color and has a well-defined border. This kind sometimes responds well to treatment. The second type is dermal. It appears light brown or bluish in color and has no defined border. This kind doesn’t respond well to treatment. The third type is mixed melasma. This type is the most common kind of melasma. It appears in bluish and brown patches and has a mixed pattern under black light. This kind responds well to treatment. Is melasma dangerous? Some associate melasma with being a sign of skin cancer or potentially leading to skin cancer. Melasma is not cancerous and won’t “turn into” cancer. However, some skin cancers can appear to look like melasma, so it is important to see your dermatologist to confirm what it is exactly that you are experiencing. And as noted before, melasma is harmless; it shouldn’t be painful, itchy, or uncomfortable. If you are experiencing anything that gives you pain or discomfort, you should seek professional guidance to get a correct diagnosis. What causes melasma? The main causes of melasma are radiation, ultraviolet, visibly light, infrared (heat) light, and hormones. Melasma can worsen if overexposed to the sun. Some other potential causes of melasma are:Antiseizure medicationsBirth controlEstrogen/Diethylstilbestrol (man-made form of hormone estrogen)Genetics HypothyroidismLED screensPregnancyHormonesMakeupPhototoxic drugs (medicine that makes you sensitive to sunlight)Skincare productsSome scented soapsTanning beds Does melasma go away on its own? While it is possible for melasma to go away on its own, it takes a few months, and it depends on what is causing it. If you are pregnant or taking hormonal contraceptives like birth control, it most likely won’t go away on its own. There are preventative steps that you can take to avoid worsening your melasma like avoiding sunlight. Make sure to read our next blog in this series that covers different treatment options and crucial ingredients that are proven to help melasma!

Teresa Paquin Stimulating Collagen with Microcurrent Facial- Non invasive anti-aging Stimulating Collagen with MicrocurrentCollagen has been a popular focus in the skincare industry. We thought it would only be appropriate to discuss its benefits and how we can help…more specifically how our microcurrent treatment can help. What is it?Skin collagen is a protein that is a main factor in your bones, skin, hair, muscles and ligaments. It helps keep your skin from sagging and makes you look more youthful. It makes up 1/3 of the protein in your body. Collagen is produced by fibroblast in your cells which is a structural part of your tissue and wound healing. Elastin is a connective tissue of protein that makes the skin flexible and able to bounce back to its shape. Between elastin and collagen fibers—this forms the Collagen-Elastin Network. Microcurrent SolutionWith microcurrent treatments, you can stimulate collage, making your connective tissue stronger and more flexible. Microcurrent retrains your facial muscles to better tone and create a more natural contour. The face is the only place on the body where the muscle attach to the skin. These facial muscles are re-educated by the increase of Adenosine Triphosphate (or ATP) levels from a mild electrical current. To build collagen you need ATP. We produce less cellular energy as we get older, making it harder to produce collagen and Elastin. At Anika Skincare, we encourage the production of ATP with microcurrent facials. These facials increase ATP production by 500% and protein synthesis by almost 73%.Microcurrent also increases blood circulation by around 35%. There are no negatives to microcurrent. We can help you rebuild collagen with this non-invasive facial treatment. Every time you have a microcurrent facial you stimulate collagen and increase your body's ability to produce more, making a more consistent production of collagen. The skin will even feel firmer after just one MDLift treatment. There are a few contraindications where clients could not have this service. But, most people can. In a professional setting, your local esthetician can help you rebuild collagen in the most beneficial way and encourage your body’s natural and healing processes. Contact Anika Skincare and talk with Teresa about the best treatment plan for you and what your skincare goals may be. Teresa most often will do a before and after photo to compare with client right after service. The results are both immediate and accumulative in a series. Making it a terrific skincare treatment before a special event or in a series for more visible long lasting results. A great alternative to surgery. Can be done for those who use Botox and fillers as well. It does help extend the benefits of Botox. We wait three weeks after Botox injections. Clients do not have to wait as long to do microcurrent that have dermal fillers.

Teresa Paquin Different Types of Acne: What You Need To Know- Anika Skincare The Different Types of Acne: What You Need to Know An acne breakout is often the last thing that anyone wants to see when they get up in the morning. Yet, this is a reality for many people between the ages of 14 to adulthood and beyond. While some teens get acne for a few years and then it clears up, there are many who struggled with it in a lifelong fight. But help is on its way in the form of education! Well, that, and proper help! What are the different types of acne? Whiteheads and Blackheads: These are the most common problem for teens. Whiteheads and Blackheads are small, raised bumps on the skin’s surface with a white/black center and don’t have swelling around them. They also don’t tend to be painful, which is a huge relief. Pustules / Pimples: These usually look like whiteheads, but they are larger and tender around the inflamed, red circles around them. These often tend to be filled with a clear, white or yellow pus. Papules: These bumps are under the skin and they are pink or red with some swelling and inflammation around them, too. These usually develop when there are so many whiteheads that there is inflammation caused, creating the perfect environment for papules. Nodules: These are large, raised bumps under the skin and they are often hard to the touch and are very painful. These are due to clogged pores that are laden with damaged tissues and more. Cysts: These are large bumps under the skin that are very painful. These tend to be soft to the touch and can be red or the same color as the rest of your skin. These are considered to be the most severe kind of acne. Generally, teenagers are prone to the first 3 types of acne, but there are some who may suffer from either nodules or cysts from teenaged years to adulthood. These latter types of acne are often inherited, but they can develop through improper skincare. How can facials help treat acne? Whether you have traditional teenaged acne or still have it as an adult, a facial could be a wonderful helping hand to getting your skin back to its smooth, healthy self. A facial is a focused deep skin cleansing session that will help clear out your pores, wipe away dead skin cells, reduce inflammation, and help the post staining that you can experience after a breakout. Facials can be customized depending on the grade of your acne. Grade one and two are called acne simplex, while grade 3 and 4 are called acne vulgaris and each are treated professionally in different ways. An LED light therapy facial: these facials help clear up acne-, reduce inflammation, kill bacteria that causes acne and reduce those fine lines while also stimulating new collagen grows in your skin. With regular use this does help collagen, and in turn will smooth and improve acne scarring. They’re also painless, which is a great perk. This service uses visible light wavelengths. NASA was the one to discover the healing benefits of using visible light for the skin. There are some contraindications to having this done. LED Light Therapy Facials are very safe if there are no contraindications. I had a client who had acne pitting type scarring and with regular facials it greatly improved. A microcurrent facial: This uses a painless low electrical current to tighten your skin and tone the facial muscles at the same time. This is extremely safe and popular for anti-aging treatments. But, with advanced equipment like the MD Lift at Anika Skincare I am able to help incorporate this for the acne benefits such as: lymphatic drainage, product penetration. And breaking down hardened collagen that causes acne scarring. Resulting in faster healing, less inflammation and smoother skin. Acne facial: A facial can combination of the above-mentioned things such as Led Light Therapy and Microcurrent Facial as well as deep cleansing and extractions, customized facial peels, depigmentation products and masks. your favorite serums with a massage for best results. Skin will be over all improved. Helping both to clear acne and prevent future breakouts. Consistent homecare skincare routine using the right ingredients for you type of skin and grade acne along with professional facials will help greatly. What should I know about skincare ingredients? When picking the skincare products that you are going to be using for cleansing, enjoying a facial, moisturizing and protecting, there are some great acne-preventing ingredients that you’ll want to make sure are a part of your favorite products. These include: Salicylic acid: Suitable even for sensitive skin, products with this in it will help reduce unnecessary oil production and clean out your pores without drying out your skin in the process. Find in many of the Essential Dermaceuticals products for acne and the Visual Changes Skincare products. Some of my favorites are the Gly Sal Pads, Purify Salicylic Facial Cleanser, Sulfur and Salicylic Lotion (Toner). Exfoliating particles: Over exfoliating can irritate acne but having gentle exfoliating particles in your skincare products will help you to enjoy just that little bit of exfoliation that your skin needs to clog your pores. A very gentle one to check out is called Flower & Lactic Microderm Exfoliator. Hyaluronic acid: This is going to be the long-lasting non-pore-blocking gentle moisturizer that will keep your skin strong and resistant to breakage and scarring even from acne. It is a very lightweight ingredient, too. The key to getting the right skincare formulation is to look for the molecular weight of the product, so it delivered into the skin cells. Hyaluronic acid is naturally in the body, and acts as a moisture magnet. It is used in many advanced skincare products. But again, always look for high quality such as the one we have made for Anika Skincare in small batches. A best seller at Anika’s is the Hyaluronic Acid Complex, by Essential Dermaceuticals. Many acne ingre4dients can be very drying. That is why it is so important to maintain the proper moisture level on the skin. Another important thing to note is never use plant seed oil on active acne, your skin does NOT need any additional oil at this time. Think water based or hyaluronic based types products. The role of your Aesthetician If you’re feeling a little overwhelming at all of this, you aren’t alone! That’s why a professional aesthetician is going to be your BFF. You’ll be able to enjoy professional help in taking a look at your skin, lifestyle and other things that trigger acne breakouts. After in depth skincare consultation an Aesthetician can recommend a skincare routine with the right ingredients for your type of acne and also if your skin is sensitive. At Anika Skincare I also go over a customized professional plan to help clear your acne and prevent future breakouts.

Teresa Paquin Excellent SunCare and Skincare to Add to Your Summer Routine Now that the summer season is in full swing, it’s time to update our skincare routines. In the winter, we often need to use thicker moisturizers to make up for the dryness that occurs during that season. However, in the summer months, a lighter moisturizer is often more beneficial and a SPF is a must. Anika Beauty offers a surplus of products to fit in with your routine for every season. But to make it easier for you, we’ll list ones especially good for the summer below. Essential Dermaceuticals The Essential Dermaceuticals line offers tons of good skincare to add to your summer routine including but not limited to… The Essential Dermaceuticals Ferulic C and E Serum: Over time, ultraviolet damage, free radicals, and environmental contributors can accelerate the aging process and lead to discoloration. By adding Ultimate Ferulic C & E Serum to your skin routine, you can revitalize your skin while visibly improving your skin's radiance, firmness, smoothness, and complexion. Bonus, this formula protects against blue light damage as well. The Essential Dermaceuticals Ferulic Acid C and E Firming Creme: This lightweight moisturizer helps to firm the dermal scaffold, stimulate collagen synthesis, and boost resilience. It firms and tightens skin, and improves lines and wrinkles; while also protecting from the effects of photo aging and blue light damage. Essential Dermaceuticals Hyaluronic Mask: Maximize topical hydration and enhance your skin’s natural moisture barrier with this thirst quenching mask that contains water based humectants that attract and bind moisture to the skin. Infused with powerful resilience-enhancing actives, this mask will provide immediate and long lasting hydration; leaving the skin feeling supremely nourished, refreshed, hydrated and balanced. Pro tip- this can be applied very thin all over face and left on under moisturizer. Essential Dermaceuticals Hyaluronic & Peptide Eye Complex: Eye cream for advanced hydration. And, special peptides to prevent and reduce fine lines. And if you’re interested, you can shop the whole line here! Suncare You’ll LoveAs we all know, putting on sunscreen is crucial, ESPECIALLY in the summer months when the sun’s UV rays are at their strongest. Not to mention the increase in sun exposure that our skin gets during the summer. Wearing sunscreen can sometimes feel like a burden; with greasy formulas that leave that white cast that no one wants. Thankfully, with Suntegrity suncare, you don’t have to worry about any of that. Suntegrity sun care offers sun protection in many forms, from natural sunscreens, to tinted SPF moisturizers, SPF mineral powders, to a trifecta power mist. Their products are natural, non toxic, and packed with multi-tasking, beauty-boosting antioxidants and non-nano zinc oxide. This line is terrific for sensitive skin types and the no color spf and mineral powder spf are excellent choices for acne skin types. Check out their products available on our website here! Essential Summer SkincareEssential Skincare is another line offered at Anika Beauty that offers plenty of skincare options that would make a great addition to your summer routine. Some of our favorites are… The Essential Skincare Acne Safe 35 SPF Moisturizer and the Essential Skincare Mandelic Plus, the perfect product for brightening sunspots. The Essential Skincare Acne Safe SPF is light-weight and has a pleasant vanilla-almond scent. It has a smooth finish that doesn’t leave you with that dreadful white cast. Anika Beauty hopes you enjoy that summer sun this year, but make sure to do so with protection!
