Thyroid Function & Your Skin
Optimal thyroid function is important for beautiful skin, unfortunately thyroid disease is very common. Hypothyroidism (too little thyroid hormones) can cause very dry skin making you itchy and flakey and make your skin look more wrinkled and crepey. Hypothyroidism can also cause puffy eyes, thinning eyebrows, course brittle hair, brittle nails and the dreaded weight gain. Extremely high thyroid levels can cause a condition called myxedema, which presents as a thick, scaly, dry skin rash.
Be on top of your condition and moisturize properly. Skin creams that have a thicker feel to them are best, but make sure they aren’t clogging your pores causing more skin problems. It may be best to get a skin assessment to be sure about what products to use for you. Drinking plenty of water will help the look and feel of your skin as well as taking less-hot showers and using humidifiers. Make sure your skincare products offer exfoliating ingredients so your dry skin doesn’t build up. A regular peel with your esthetician is a great help; usually scheduled 3-6 weeks apart. According to dermatologists, an antihistamine can also help with eye puffiness as well as a caffeine eye roller (found at any drugstore) or cold compress.
Conversely, hyperthyroidism (too much thyroid hormones) can cause skin to look moist and smooth, but causes hyperpigmentation problems like melanoderma (tanning of the skin), melasma (blotchy spots, mask of pregnancy) and redness flushing of the skin due to increased metabolism. Also in the mix for hyperthyroidism is anxiety, insomnia, weight loss, rapid heart rate, sweating, all-over itchiness and thinning hair. Many of the listed symptoms will cause skin problems including acne, wrinkles, puffy eyes and hyperpigmentation.
Many things can help your skin with this condition, but it will take persistence and time. Regular peels, microderm, facials and/or LED Light Therapy will help unclog sweaty pores and clear up acne as well as fade melasma and other hyperpigmentation and keep it in check. Unfortunately, the hyperpigmentation resulting from thyroid disease never goes away and needs constant exfoliation to achieve a more uniform skin tone. Radiation (from sun and other sources) will cause your melanocytes (pigment cells) to go haywire, make sure you wear sunscreen, hats and try to stat out of direct sunlight when you can. A proper home routine will also make all the difference; schedule a skin assessment to make sure you are spending your money wisely to make the look of this disease less apparent.
Sun Damage Reversed by Antioxidants
Why it's important to remove UV damaged skin.
Beauty and the Tan
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.

What is a “peel”?
Q. What is a peel?
A. Many people think of those peel-off masks when they hear “peel”, that’s not what skincare professionals mean when they say peel. A peel is a mask that is applied to the skin to exfoliate dead skin away using fruit acids (enzyme peel) or chemicals (chemical peel). Chemical peels are used for a deeper resurfacing of skin and can be quite painful, numbing cream and anesthesia is usually used for chemical peels and they are legally only supposed to be performed under a doctor’s supervision in most states. 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 peels are applied to the skin like a mask in a thin layer and after 10-15 minutes it’s washed off with a cloth, leaving you with soft skin, unclogged pores and a youthful pink in your cheeks. Enzyme peels are the go-to for natural antiaging because they fade hyperpigmentation (age spots, sun damage, melasma, acne scars), they soften skin texture (acne scars, dry skin, bumps), brighten skin tone, dissolve blackheads and help unclog pores to get rid of acne. Peels are MAGIC for your complexion! Our enzyme masks come in 3 levels; level one is gentle enough for people going through cancer treatment and with extremely sensitive skin like Rosacea, eczema and even children benefit from this mask. The level 2 enzyme peel is still safe for sensitive skin but it’s a bit more active (hot) so it may not be appropriate for people with Rosacea. By “active”, I mean that it stimulates blood circulation and can feel warm to the skin as it’s working, which can make Rosacea skin types experience more redness. Our level 3 Peel is more active than level 2 and contains manual exfoliators (particles that scrub) for dual action exfoliation. The level 3 mask is only for robust skin types, as manual scrubs can leave fragile skin red and irritated. I recommend finding your skin type before settling on a home exfoliation plan. Doing too much exfoliating or using too many exfoliating ingredients together in your routine can end up irritating the skin and even thinning it instead of plumping it. For this reason, it’s important to know what products work well together and which ones don’t, as well as what product work well for you specifically. You can consult a professional for a skin analysis and they will go over the best plan for you.
MCAS and your skin
I, Shelly Todd (product creator)have MCAS (mast cell activation syndrome), which is a rare immune system disease that makes me sensitive to many foods, smells, skincare and other things. It can send me to the ER sometimes. I had such a hard time finding skincare for my ACNE and now for anti-aging that wouldn’t cause reactions, so in 2013, I created J Renee Organics Skincare. If you too have SENSITIVE SKIN or react to many things, please message me for more info.
Anti-Histamines, Rosacea and Acne
Now scientific evidence points to antihistamines helping with ACNE! Unfortunately for dry skin sufferers, they also dry out the skin further. Make sure you are using the proper skincare products during allergy season if you take antihistamines! Not sure? Schedule a skin asssessment today.
Pollen, histamine and your skin.
People who experience seasonal allergies tend to experience dry, itchy, irritated skin. Also, histamine stimulates oil production in the skin, so when you take antihistamines, it can dry the skin out. Combat dry skin with the proper lotion for you and your allergic condition.
