Reverse UV Damage with Antioxidants

Learn how antioxidant rick skincare products can reverse UV damage and protect against premature skin aging.

Beauty and the TanSun Damage Reversed by Antioxidants

Let’s be honest, tan fat looks better than pasty white fat, but most bronzed beauties are using UV beds instead of spray tanning.   Unfortunately, UV rays, may it be from the sun or a bulb, can break down the integrity of the skin in many ways. It’s not my job to tell you what to do, as an educated esthetician, I’m just here to help you combat the premature aging, cellular mutation and inflammation that tanning causes.  A regular monthly facial, as well as a skincare routine rich in antioxidants and retinols can not only protect you from the damage that UV causes but it can also reverse past damage. 

The science:  UV radiation mutates skin cells, which activates your immune system to kill off the damaged cells, which causes inflammation that degrades the skin’s matrix.  The skin’s matrix is made up of many things, including collagen and elastin, which we need for our skin to look youthful. Years of UV damage causes premature wrinkles, age spots and skin cancers.

Antioxidants in skincare products have been scientifically proven to help erase existing damage and prevent further collagen breakdown from UV and other environmental factors.  Furthermore, retinol suppresses the collagen degrading MMPs (Matrix metalloproteinases) in our skin.  MMPs are increased by UV damage and speed aging and can help cancer grow.  The right skincare routine can help protect against collagen break-down and help reverse age spots and dangerous cellular activity.

An esthetician’s job is to listen, learn and provide services and products that will fit in each client’s lifestyle.  Facials help promote skin beauty and health by removing damaged skin cells, reversing cellular damage and restoring balance.  Educated estheticians also take note of changes to skin and refer their clients to a dermatologist when appropriate. Having an honest relationship with your skin care professional will skirt premature aging and help detect skin cancers early.

It’s Peel Season!

Pumpkin enzyme facial kit on sale.

According to the Journal of The Korean Society of Food Science and Nutrition, scientific studies on skin show that pumpkin, along with red paprika and tomato, reverse the elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Excessive amounts of ROS can damage cellular and DNA, leading to premature aging and cancer. Pumpkin also contains a plethora of antioxidants that soothe skin and help improve collagen production to plump up the skin and lessen the look of wrinkles. While the pumpkin mask sits on your skin, it’s dissolving the damaged skin cells, while leaving healthy cells intact, revealing the healthy even-toned cells beneath. In just 10-15 minutes, you’ll see improvement. With a series of 3 pumpkin home facial kits, done 10 days apart, you’ll be amazed at the results.

J. Renee Peels are all natural and use fruit enzymes from pumpkin, papaya, pomegranate and other fruits as well as natural lactic, glycolic and citric acids. Our exfoliating masks are labeled peels but the actual action of enzymes is to dissolve or digest the dead skin cells, so there is no yanking or peeling action needed, which can damage sensitive skin.

Our home facial kits have professional products and specific instructions on how to do each step. The kit includes: Cleanser, Pumpkin Enzyme Peel, Scrub, Soothing Mask, Toner, Serum and Lotion. Get exemplary results using professional organic peels and masks in the comfort of your own home.
