One of the things we have to take note of whether we're skincare newbies or lovers of skin TLC is how big our lifestyles come to play when it comes to how our skin is.
Even skincare experts point out the importance of a good night's sleep, a balanced diet, and the path of less stress, but that isn't always in the cards for us. The things that make up our lives are full of ups and downs & circumstances that, no matter how hard we try to keep up a skincare routine, affect our skin in a way that doesn't align with our goals. Our genetics and hormones that come into play when it comes to skin are also out of our control. We often forget the many natural stages we go through in life and the circumstances that come with growing that we think our skin is inherently wrong. We invalidate the goodness in our skin and what it's been through in a sea of skin products and treatments that aren't the right match for our unique skin stories.
On top of our minds: less burden on our shoulders in pursuit of better skin. Instead of chasing skin TLC to make it fit our lives, we want to be able to find skincare that keeps up with it— the way it is supposed to be. Celebrate one of the deepest forms of love you can have for yourself and your skin this month. Here's how you can find the right skincare match that goes better together with your unique lifestyle and routine.
For the goal-getters

Laser-focused on what you want with a firm idea of how to get it; knowledgeable with the ins-and-outs; hard-set on goals, but could often get caught up in all-in-one solutions.
Our skincare tip: Goal-getters have a way of getting down to the specifics of what they want to achieve and the steps they're willing to take to get there. While goal-getters are usually firm on this, it's easy to get drawn into skincare that claims to treat all (even if it was never in our priorities.) Try to keep the same focus through and through with products and treatments that specifically target your skin goals and needs.
Your right match: Pixel Laser Resurfacing
How it'll go with you: Now with options that let you treat specific skin textures, acne marks, scars & pores, the Pixel induces skin healing by creating 'pixels' on your skin to resurface smoother and less textured skin. It's as focused as you are in making sure your skin's potential is set free, without the fuss or confusion as to what your skin actually needs.
For the explorers

Familiar with the basics and ready to head on to something new; in constant search of how else they could step up their game; tendency to stray a bit from their goals, but all in the discovery of what's best for them.
Our skincare tip: Every explorer started out as a kick-starter who wanted to nail down the basics before going for anything else that could add to their journey. You're now exploring how you could take that to the next level, so make sure to keep what you learned so far when dabbling into what could take you there. It's easy to get lost, especially with skincare trends coming and going. Keep your priorities and goals as your north star, and you'll find skin progress you could see and feel on another level.
Your right match: The Clearlift Laser Treatment
How it'll go with you: The best way to get into laser facials— the Clearlift Laser Treatment allows you to have tighter and brighter skin by working deep within your skin. Tick off that new skin experience in your list of things to explore & get less pigmentation from recent breakouts, improved appearance of pores, and more lifted skin.
For the forward-thinkers

Not afraid to think ahead and invest in things that their future self would be thankful for. Plans ahead but tends to conclude that the future overrules the present.
Our skincare tip: The future is always what drives a forward-thinker when it comes to choosing the best option. You have a way of thinking ahead based on what you know. Being future-focused, however, can make you think of summing up all your efforts until you can freely allocate as much time and resources in the future. Try to remember: the earlier you can start caring for your skin, the more you can thank your past self when your skin naturally manifests the signs of aging!
Your right match: Ultherapy
How it'll go with you: The Ultherapy helps you bring out your best features by giving you a tighter, more lifted, and more defined face. What you'll love about this? You can choose to start boosting your collagen production (when you're ready, of course!) to brace skin's natural aging without the knives and needles! To top it all off, you'll only need one session for results that could last up to a year.
For the kick-starters

Takes their time to get to know the basics for a great foundation to lay their groundwork on; newly-curious towards what's good for them; reluctant (first steps are always scary!) but open to see what will suit their goals.
Our skincare tip: Take your time to nail down your basics and essentials when it comes to skin. This is the best time to get to know your skin and what you're starting with before jumping ahead towards what would boost it even more. Try not to be confused, though! Just because you're beginning your journey doesn't mean you don't deserve the best. Allow yourself to receive the essentials that match up to your highest self and who you are right now.
Your right match: The Essential Facial
How it'll go with you: The new standard for facials skips the unnecessary pain to give you healthier, decongested skin. This hydradermabrasion facial treatment intensely hydrates your skin to make sure it receives the TLC it needs, no matter where you're at in your skin journey. Customize each session with your choice of masks and serums so no matter what you're going through, you'll always have an essential to come back to!
Skincare is a deeply personal journey. While you may feel like you resound with the Kick-Starter, Explorer, Goal-Getter, or Forward-Thinker, you're free to explore what your skin truly needs at the moment? Our only promise, we'll be ready to welcome you to get you on track— whenever or wherever you and your skin are ready!
