Melasma and Skin Damages




Hyperpigmentation (dark skin areas) is characterized by an increased production and accumulation of melanins or an increased number of melanocytes. Melanins are dark colored pigments produced by special skin cells, called melanocytes.

Hyperpigmentation can be inherited or, more often,
aquired by a number of causes including photoaging, hormonal changes (contraceptives, pregnancy, menopause), repeated and prolonged
exposure to the sun, and chronic skin irriations, inflammation or skin diseases.

Dark skin areas may be of cosmetic relevance especially if they occur in the face or other uncovered body areas. Many efforts have been devoted
to screening and testing recognized and putative
depigmenting agents. In addition, physical therapies, such as lasers, are currently under investigation to treat hyperpigmentation.




Skin may appear darker than normal and may be blotchy, uneven areas, or patches of brown to gray discoloration or freckling. Skin pigmentation disorders occur because the body produces either too much or too little melanin, a pigment produced by melanocytes. 

Increased melanin production, also known as hyperpigmentation, is often referred to as melasma (general term describing darkening of the skin), chloasma (discolorations caused by hormones) or solar lentigines (darkened spots on the skin caused by the sun). 

In addition, hyperpigmentation can be caused by skin damage, such as remnants of blemishes, wounds or rashes.


Skin-lighteners (like bearberry leaves extract and undecylenoyl phenylalanine) inhibit melanin tyrosinase or melanotropin and reduce or block some amount of melanin production. 

Many treatments use a combination of topical lotions or gels containing melanin-inhibiting ingredients along with a sunscreen, and a prescription retinoid. Depending on how the skin responds to these treatments exfoliants, either in the form of topical cosmetic or chemical peels, and lasers may be used.

Fine lines & wrinkles, Enlarged pores, Loss of firmness/elasticity, Age spots, Dull skin


AMAZING KIT! We found! 

Excellent For Fine lines; wrinkles, Enlarged pores, Loss of firmness/elasticity, Age spots, Dull skin:

The biggest cause of aging skin is the decrease in the production of collagen and elastin that is needed to help skin maintain its integrity and tone. Loss of elasticity, decrease or change in color, fine wrinkling, thinning of layers, increased itchiness, etc. are all signs that your skin is aging and taking the rest of your body down (sagginess) with it.



The worst offender in this case is damage to the skin from outdoor sunbathing, indoor tanning and normal unprotected sun exposure when outdoors either working or playing. This kind of skin damage is clinically known as photoaging and can lead to freckling, spider veins on the face, age spots, leathery skin, fine wrinkles that disappear only when stretched, a blotchy complexion, actinic keratosis (those rough, reddish patches of skin seen mostly around the temples and cheeks), and worst of all—skin cancer.
The best solution for preventing further skin damage from the sun is to religiously apply sunscreens 30 minutes before going outdoors. It’s never too late to take this practice whether you are 8 months or 80 years. Furthermore, although sunbathing and indoor tanning does provide a healthy appearance, the long-term effects for such short-time results can make all the difference in not only how good you look throughout your life, but how long you may live. According to the American Cancer Society, more than 2 million cases of basal and squamous cell skin cancer are found in this country each year. Melanoma, the most serious type of skin cancer, will account for more than 75,000 cases of skin cancer in 2012.

Best eye wrinkles cream for 2013

As you age, your skin begins to develop fine lines and wrinkles, but wrinkles around the eyes can begin even in your youth. While prevention is key, wrinkles can be treated with creams and home remedies to reduce their appearance.



The bad news is, as women age, wrinkles under the eyes will eventually pop up. No matter how much you wish them away, it's only natural. The good news, however, is that you can slow down the process by drinking enough water, getting enough sleep and staying out of the sun for extended periods of time.
When the aging process begins, one of the first places where wrinkles, fine lines, puffiness and dark bags appear is around the eyes. The eye area is composed of extremely delicate and fragile skin that requires a lot of care and attention. If you want to eliminate the appearance of wrinkles and bags under your eyes, there are several things that you can do. Get on the road to a youthful and dewy complexion that is entirely free of wrinkles and other pesky aging signs.

If you find retinol too harsh on the delicate eye skin, go for a product with peptides, which, like retinol, stimulate collagen production. Powerful ingredients work synergistically in I'm Fabulous biophotonic firming eye treatment to help correct early signs of aging.

Retinol . "Anybody who can tolerate retinoic acid should use it," says medical esthetician Anis Lacerte. A vitamin A derivative, retinol stimulates cell turnover and collagen production, helping to strengthen skin and reduce complexion imperfections like sun spots and fine lines. Just remember that a little goes a long way; retinol creams make skin more sun-sensitive and can be overly drying, so apply sparingly before bedtime only.

Anis Lacerte 's also recommend using organic skin care, wear daily sunscreen and wear eyewear if you are in the sun.
Peptides . Supersensitive skin types might opt for a peptide-packed eye cream instead of a retinoic acid one. Like retinol, peptides also stimulate collagen and elastin production, but are gentler on the dermis.

It helps to diminish the depth of fine lines and wrinkles and gives eyes a more toned and healthy look by reducing puffiness, restoring elasticity, and combating dark circles.

Drinking water helps! But drinking water is very hard for some people, so another way you can try to keep your skin healthy is by eating plenty of fruit. A lot of fruits, like grapes and watermelon, are a good way to keep the skin hydrated.

Under eye skin is very delicate, so it is best to apply the anti aging cream by gently tapping it on with one finger. When you apply it this way you will not cause further eye wrinkles to form.

Hyperpigmentation at home treatment

Dark spots or patches darker than your normal skin, is a very common condition in people of all skin tones and color. They are mostly found to be increasing due to age and also due to the damage done to the skin due to excessive exposure to Sun. Hyper pigmentation or dark spots is also called age spots.

The brown pigment of our skin called melanin is found in excess in some people and hence they develop these dark spots over a period of time. As they age, these spots are more visible as production of melanin in the skin increases. The hyper pigmentation can be in the form of brown spots for some and in some, it could be in the form of brown patches.

It is also a hormonal disorder in the case of women who have Hyper Pigmentation. Some women get them on their face when they are pregnant due to hormonal changes. Estrogen /progesterone, the female reproductive hormones are the culprit for this. Oral contraceptives and chemotherapy could also be a reason for some to get this dark pigment spots.


Keep your face and body clean always. And when going out into the sun don’t forget your sunscreen. When going out into the sun wear clothes that cover every part of your body, essentially. And a hat to cover or shade your face is important. 

This will prevent your skin from getting dark spots earlier in life.
But, if you get the hyper pigmentation, you need to try to reduce it as far as possible, as soon as possible, before it turns into something as dangerous as skin cancer. You need to have enough patience too to try out the right kind of creams to reduce the brown pigmentation. 

Though it is not going to completely vanish at the snap of a finger, the skin can be lightened or faded with the use of products that you get over the counter. But these contain hydroquinone which is a kind of bleach and so can cause more damage to the skin than cure dark spots. 

You should thus search for products which are free from hydroquinone like the products that are available on I’m Fabulous Skin care Website the site
You should use a proper exfoliating cream like Magic Exfoliating Masque first. 

You could also use organic bio gorgeous peel instead. A cream to diminish the wrinkles in order to make the skin more manageable to get rid of the dark spots could be used (like the Organic Pores and Wrinkles Minimizer). And of course; Super Peptide Anti aging Serum with Fast Action Brightening is your main cream to lighten the age spots.


The complete treatment should be continued on a regular basis for a prolonged period of time to get the best results. And once the brown spots reduce or fade away, you need to be extra careful when exposing that part of the body to sun again. Exposure to sun could make the spots recur, especially if age is also an added factor.

Nourish your skin with products you could eat


Doing the research on the benefits of organic skin care really answers the question of why one should use organic skin care products, and replaces it with why wouldn't one use organic skin care products? Most people comment immediately on the difference in the look and feel of their skin after switching to organic skin care. Using organic facial creme can make a huge difference.  The mere fact that your skin is able to breathe the way that nature intended is justification enough for using organic skin care products.

Why organic beauty products

Organic beauty products are made of all-natural products that are why it’s safe and effective. You don’t have to worry with harmful side effects and harmful effects of harsh chemicals. One of the reasons why organic products are effective it’s because of its natural effect. This usually came from plants and other ingredients that came from nature itself. If you check the market, most of the beauty products are made of natural ingredients but you still need to check the label to be sure. Because there other companies and products that claims to be natural but still have those harmful chemicals included in their ingredients.




Did you know that the average woman applies more than 200 chemicals to her skin by using her skin care products in one day? Did you know that 60% of these chemicals are further absorbed into your bloodstream? These are two of the main reasons that organic skincare is one of the fastest growing areas of the beauty industry today. The more we learn about the bitter side effects of unhealthy skin care, the more quickly we will seek out other options.   
The skin is the largest organ of the body. From your eyelids to the soles of your feet, your skin takes up approximately 16% of your actual body weight. It is very important to start as early as possible with a good, healthy skin care regimen so that you may avoid some of the unfortunate side affects of aging and disease.   
Organic skin care products are made with ingredients that have not been subject to toxic chemicals.  They contain no unnatural preservatives or parabens, nor are animals allowed to be tested or harmed in any way in the production and consumption of these products.   
If you are using non-organic skin care products it is important to note the effects the toxic chemicals also have on your hormones. It has been proven that the increase in paraben use is directly correlated to an increased risk of breast cancer. So check out the back of your container and if any or most of the ingredients include butyl-, ethyl-, methyl- and propyl-, which are the four main parabens, then each time you put it onto your skin you increase your risks of disrupting the natural state of your hormones.   
A very reputable anti-aging skin care company like I'm Fabulous Skin Care always research new organic ingredients and use it in a very potent way in each formula.

REMOVE DEAD CELLS, IMPURITIES, BUILD UP, BLACK HEADS, AND OIL.


REMOVE DEAD CELLS, IMPURITIES, BUILD UP, BLACK HEADS, AND OIL.

A Buildup of Dead Skin
The skin naturally sheds every 28 days or so. But, in some, excessive amounts of dead skin are created (associated with those who have acne), which is not shed properly or efficiently. “Plus, the interior lining of the hair follicle is comprised of sticky cells that plug it up,” says Greenwich, CT, dermatologist Henry Gasiorowski, MD.  
What causes an overproduction of it: A slower shedding process
How it can cause breakouts: When a buildup of dead skin stays in the pore for too long, and mixes with sebum, a sticky liquid-like substance forms that clogs the opening of the pore. Add bacteria (naturally found in the follicle) to the mix and the combination leads to a pimple. “Gently exfoliating every few days will help remove those dead skin cells,” says Dr. Henry Gasiorowski. “Doing it too vigorously only pushes the bacteria further into the skin, creating breakouts and infections. You’ll also want to use vitamin A topically, which will collapse the sticky cells so not as much plugging can occur.”

Why Exfoliating your skin is good?




The Baby Boomers say 60 is the new 40 and they're using anti-aging products to look and feel better. More and more men and women are engaging anti-aging products in to their daily skincare routines to maintain their youthful appearance and mitigate the effects of aging before they occur.
I'm Fabulous Biophotonic skin care line can help you defy your age. If you’ve noticed your skin looking dull and rough, or an increase of fine lines, wrinkles, or the appearance of unattractive sun and age spots, I'm Fabulous Biophotonic skin care line can minimize the appearance of these aging effects.
Skin exfoliation has shown to be effective in generating new collagen. Collagen is responsible for making the skin smooth and firm. By removing the outer most layers of the epidermis in a controlled manner, exfoliating not only reduces age and sun spots and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, but it also leaves the skin with a smooth, supple, glowing texture.

Why you should use serum with peptides



There are only 20 different amino acids in the human body and like words and sentences, different peptides and proteins in the body are comprised of different combinations and sequences of amino acids. 


When a chain of amino acids is over 50 acids long, it is usually called a protein, when it contains less than 50 amino acids in the chain it is a peptide. So, a peptide is a portion, or a building block, of a protein.

All peptides influence or direct the cells of the body in some way. Different types of peptides influence different types of cells.

What is a Peptide used for in skin care? 



The peptides used in skin care are ones that communicate with and direct the skin cells to behave in a certain way, such as producing more collagen or thicken the skin. 


We highly recommend the Super Peptide Anti aging Serum with Fast Action Brightening , This supreme anti aging liquid serum contains skin whitening agents in maximum concentration and lots of peptides. This serum is super potent !

How to get rid of Blackheads fast?


What are the causes of blackheads

The overproduction of oil is the main cause of the emergence of blackheads. This is likely to occur in a high proportion of humans during puberty. Spikes in hormone production can result in the high levels of DHT (dihydrotestosterone), a hormone which triggers overactivity in the oil glands, resulting in clogged pores.



Clean skin - if the skin is not cleaned properly, more blackheads can appear, especially during those milestones in life when they are more prevalent, such as puberty. Improperly cleaned skin makes it more likely that dead skin cells build up within the pores. The pore openings can become clogged, which accelerates the build up of oil inside - thus causing blackheads to form. However, many experts warn that dirt does not cause blackheads to form - which frequently confuses and frustrates patients. Blackheads are caused by oxidized oil, not dirt, experts add. Over-cleaning the skin can lead to irritation.

In some cases, blackheads can emerge if moisturizers, sun screens, make up, or foundations are overused.

In the majority of cases, blackhead susceptibility is not heredity, with the exception of some severe acnes.

What are the treatment options for blackheads

Hormonal treatments - contraceptives have often been used for the treatment of blackheads and acne, often with good results.

Cleaning the skin - clean your face with a good cleanser, ideally, one for oily skin, such as a salicylic acid cleanser.

Exfoliating - Using the Magic Exfoliating Mask and also using a light natural peel once or twice a day.

UV exposure - exposing the skin to sunlight or ultra-violet light encourages it to peel, which helps unblock pores. Sunbathing or using sunbeds may help. However, it is important to discuss this with your doctor. Exposing skin to sunlight, if overdone, also raises the risk of burning and developing skin cancer.

Hair - greasy hair touching the face of your skin can spread infection and in some cases encourage the spread of blackheads and acne. Keeping your hair away from your face may help keep blackheads to a minimum.

What is vitamin C ? Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, is probably the best-known vitamin. It is most often associated with citrus fruit and is known for its ability to boost the immune system, increasing the body's resistance to infections like cold and flu in winter. But what many people don't know is that vitamin C is an antioxidant that performs a variety of roles in the body. It helps to promote healthy gum and teeth, aids in mineral absorption, and helps heal wounds. 

This vitamin is also a water-soluble vitamin that is expressed quantitatively as milligrams. What vitamin C does for you Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that reacts with free radicals. Through this mechanism, the vitamin protects the body from the onslaught of cancer and other diseases of lifestyle. The vitamin plays an important role in the formation of connective tissue, cartilage, bone matrix, tooth dentin, skin and tendons - making it one of the corner stones of the wound healing process. Vitamin C is best known for its mechanism of increasing the body's resistance to infection. It also helps to keep the mucous membranes intact.

Our Vitamin C serum is a stable form of L-Ascorbic Acid. Since the amount of Vitamin C that penetrates into your skin is directly correlated with the acidity of the C, we have set ours appropriately low (2.5pH). You will find that our C Serum will deliver the maximum amount of vitamin into the skin with just a slight amount of irritation/tingling. Our serum will help to protect your skin from UVA & UVB rays damaging effects. 

*Ultraviolet light exposure depletes up to two-thirds of your skin's Vitamin C stores. These levels can not be re-obtained by ingestion of Vitamin C! They can only be reached with a topical application. Topical Vitamin C provides more than twenty times the amount of Vitamin C found in normal skin, so extremely high percentages are quite wasteful and will not be absorbed and utilized.

Direction:

Pat skin dry.  If you are going to use a toner, apply the toner before the serum. Apply to entire face, neck and decollete. Allow to dry. Can be used daily; can be used under make up. Follow with any of our moisturizers.
