Age brings about several changes to skin, including the appearance of wrinkles and other age-related blemishes, loss of elasticity, a shift in tone and texture, and more. Makeup’s adhesion to skin also evolves. So, even if you have applied your makeup the same way since college, there are a few things to be mindful of as you age. And no matter your age, these tips will help you feel confident and beautiful.
HYDRATE FIRSTA good skin care routine is vital to perfect makeup application, and the best way to maintain the look, feel, and overall health of skin as you age is to keep it well-hydrated. As you get older, skin’s ability to hold on to moisture decreases, so it is best to use a thick moisturizer before putting on makeup. It helps keep skin looking supple and prevents skin care products from clogging fine lines.Make sure the moisturizer you choose contains elements that hydrate, revitalize, and mend skin, such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and ceramides. In addition, everyone should use a moisturizer with sun protection factor, regardless of age or skin type.

Imagine a skin care professional performing a chemical peel on a client. They are going over post-peel instructions; the client leaves excited about their upcoming skin transformation. The spa schedules the next treatment appointment, and all is well in skin care land. Fast forward to a few days later, the peel provider is working on another client, when their phone begins to light up with notifications. They open their Instagram account and find that they have gone viral – for giving that chemical peel client third-degree burns! This scenario has happened countless times over the past couple of years, primarily on Fitzpatrick skin III to VI.
Hair removal is one of the most sought-after aesthetic services in the beauty industry with a high return on investment (ROI). There are various methods of hair removal such as waxing, threading, laser, and the most recent sensation, sugaring. No matter which method, hair removal has minimal overhead, and many skin care professionals overlook the opportunity to upsell their current clients. It is more cost efficient to increase current clients’ lifetime value by simply suggesting additional services to complement their existing hair removal appointment. Add-ons will increase the average revenue per client while leveling up a client’s self-care regimen. This will benefit clients and profit numbers, making it the ultimate win-win. To revamp a service list, consider these common add-ons and combinations to naturally upsell regular hair removal services and increase revenue.

Healthy skin does not happen by chance. Despite the flawless-skin mindset that is seen blasted across social media, beautiful glowing skin takes effort. This effort is divided into one’s skin care regimen and the products used, which are an important part of skin’s daily diet. Finding the best products for one’s skin type is normally the ultimate goal. However, skin may not reap the intended benefits with long-term usage of the same products.
