The best of today's Skin Care Products serve an important function. They help our skin become and remain The Best it can possibly be. In a society such as ours, that places so much emphasis on looking good and feeling good, the condition and esthetics of our skin plays an important part in determining how we interact with society. And so it affects our lives in many, many ways.

Yet, with so many differing products from so many different manufacturers and with each one claiming to be the best, it may seem almost impossible to chose '''The Best Product for You.'''

Most Skin Care Products fall into one of the following general types: 

Cleansers: They vary in strength and can clean the skin from its surface to deep within  

the pores.

Scrubs/Exfoliants:  Available in both chemical and physical formulas that are intended to buff the surface of the skin and give a more radiant healthy glow.

Toners:  Restore the skin's natural pH balance so that the correctives and moisturizers can penetrate the skin.

Moisturizers:  Restore the skin's natural moisture and hydration.  Some are specific correctives to build and maintain collagen and elasticity or correct a condition such as acne.

Serums:   Lighter than moisturizers, usually containing specific vitamins, antioxidants, and tonics intended to correct and/or heal specific issues within the skin. 

Masks/Masques: At home treatments to clarify, firm, tighten and tone the skin

Sun Protection:  Helps protect the skin from damage due to the UV/UVB radiation from the sun and all ultra  violet light sources.  The most important step that is often ignored by consumers!

 

Some people have concerns over the moral and ethical questions surrounding the spending of Time, Effort and Money on trying to improve ones outward appearance.

Many people turn to a dermatologist or a plastic surgeon for advice on skin care products. They are knowledgeable professionals. However, we should remember that most doctors will admit that a good pharmacist will have a better working knowledge of more drugs than most doctors. This is because the pharmacist is an expert on only drugs. That is all they do, 24/7.

The same is true for an educated medical aesthetician. Their daily work with is focused on taking care of patients skincare product needs and performing procedures to correct the skin. Skincare advise is the aesthetician's area of expertise.
