🪡🥇Microneedling is my top at-home treatmemt to reduce fine lines & wrinkles as well as crepey eyelid skin! 👩🏫Here’s how I do it: 👉 Device: I use the Dr Pen M8 and a new sterile 16 pin cartridge. Check out my Amazon store for the device. Other Dr Pen models are fine, but try to find a needle number that is close to 16 pins. I found that it is an all-over great needle cartridge to use on all body parts, including the eyes. 👉 Calibrations: Needle depth .25mm, Speed 1. 👉 Products used: I coat the area with Hyaluronic Acid to create a slip so the device glides easily over the skin. 👉Technique used: I use a combo of swirling technique stamping technique, staying on the occipital bone. 👉 Post Care: continue to coach the area with hyaluronic acid for a few hours post treatment, then follow with a thin layer of Aquaphor. 👉 Healing time varies depending on health, post care protocol, and lifestyle factors. 👩🏼⚕️Want to Speed Healing time? 👇 🤩Double up on your collagen supplement (DM me “COLLAGEN” for my fav) 🚨Blast the treated area with Red Light therapy to speed healing (DM me Red Light for my favorites). 😃 DM me MICRONEEDLING for my FREE Microneedling guidebook that gives you step-by-step, instructions, as well as safety protocols, different calibrations for various body, parts, and a post care protocol to speed healing. #microneedling #50plusskincare #youngerlookingeyes #tightenskin

Are sunspots, hyperpigmentation, and melasma affecting your skin❓ Here’s my TOP treatments for hyperpigmentation, sunspots, and melasma ⬇️ ☀️Sunscreen – The first line of defense is prevention. Apply a broad spectrum sunblock of SPF 30-50 & wear a wide-brimmed hat outdoors. 👒 ✨Hydroquinone – This prescription-strength skin lightener can be used for up to four months. There are some risks (learn more when you subscribe to my email list). Doctor supervision is required. However, a couple of online skincare lines prescribe hydroquinone, like Musely & Curology. 🪄Tretinoin – This is a prescription-strength retinoid. It is clinically proven to lighten hyperpigmentation & sunspots, even out skin tone & texture, & treat melasma. 🌟Niacinamide – This B3 vitamin treats acne, reduces pore size, evens skin tone, treats melasma, & hyperpigmentation, strengthens skin’s natural barrier, & fights free radicals. 🩸Chemical Peels – If you missed my live show about at-home chemical peels, go back & watch! 👀 🧴Other effective skincare ingredients – azelaic acid, kojic acid, tranexamic acid, alpha-arbutin, licorice extract, vitamin C, & tranexamic acid. 💥Light Pulse Lasers – These in-office lasers target the melanin in the skin to break up hyperpigmentation & absorb it back into the body. *IPL (Intense Pulsed Light Laser) reduces hyperpigmentation, such as sunspots. Be sure to wait 3-6 weeks between the spot test & the first treatment. It usually takes 3-6 weeks to see results & requires multiple sessions. 🍄Vitamin D – Although no vitamin can prevent hyperpigmentation, a diet rich in Vitamin D is likely to help. Eat more raw almonds, almond milk, eggs, oily fish, mushrooms, & yogurt. 🔴Red Light Therapy – Red light therapy masks, such as the Omnilux Contour, have shown lightening of melasma & discolorations. These treatments WORK, & I have the post-farm-girl-arms to prove it. 😉 🌟Want to take care of your skin as you age and look younger longer?

Which Retinoid is right for YOUR skin❓ Watch this IG LIVE SHOW as I walk you through all of the different retinoids and help you decide which retinoid is best for YOU!😇 Under the broad umbrella of RETINOIDS, the journey begins: 🔄 Retinoid gets converted to ➡️ RETINOL ➡️ RETINALDEHYDE (Retinal) ➡️ RETINOIC ACID (TRETINOIN) And don’t forget about THIRD GENERATION RETINOIDS like ADAPALENE & TRAZEROTENE! ➡️What do they do?🤔 ✨Treat ALL signs of aging skin. It’s the #1 active ingredient in all anti-aging/photo-aging for skincare. ➡️Why do you need a starter retinoid? ✨Because of irritation! 🤯 It takes time for your skin to adjust, so easing into it using a retinoid is recommended.😌 ➡️Have Dry Skin? Try Retinols in moisturizing formulas like: ✨Olay Retinol24 Peptide ✨Roc Retinol Correxion Max Hydration Cream ✨The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane ➡️Have Acne? Retinoids were made for it! Most effective for acne: Adapalene! 🌟 Differin Gel 🌟 La Roche-Posay ➡️Best Overall Retinols? Tretinoin!👏🏼 ✨Prescription strength Retinoid – .025%, .05%, 1.0% ✨Altreno (prescription, but formulated with complimentary ingredients that ease irritation). ✨Apostrophe.com ✨Tazarotene: Most irritating! Strongest impact! ➡️Best All-Around Retinols? 💫 Paula’s Choice 1% retinol 💫 Differin Gel (Adapalene) MY FAV🥰 💫 Prescription Tretinoin ➡️Best Body Retinols? ✨Versed Retinol Body Lotion ✨Paul’s Choice Body Retinol ✨Add your Tretinoin to your body cream! TIPS TO START A RETINOID:👇 ‼️Side effects? Flaking, redness, peeling, and irritation ➡️Start small, then go big! ➡️Choose the right retinoid! Retinol is less irritating. ➡️Pea-sized amount, small dots, and spread evenly. ➡️Gradually increase frequency. ➡️Peak irritation at 2-3 weeks, then dissipates. ➡️Use a barrier like Aquaphor or try a retinoid sandwich! ( moisturizer retinoid moisturizer ) 🚫AVOID using a retinoid IF pregnant or breastfeeding! 🚫 ‼️Have Rosacea? Consult a dermatologist or start super small. 👉DM me “Retinoid” to get my FREE retinoid guidebook! 🥰 #LookYoungerLonger #Over50Skincare #Over50Skin #retinoids

Grounding is my favorite way to de-stress!🧘♀️ 🪨 Grounding (also known as earthing) has many health benefits! When the skin comes into contact with the ground, the human body becomes a sponge🧽that soaks up negatively-charged electrons. ⚡️ ⚛️ Many healthy atoms have a negative charge because they possess more electrons; however, these atoms can have electrons “stolen” from them, leaving them highly reactive and damaging. In this state, they are called free radicals. 😫As harmful free radicals infiltrate cells and tissues, our health declines. The only way to stop this destructive process is by supplying the body with neutralizing antioxidants or a hefty dose of negative electrons through grounding. 👢 However, we can go YEARS without touching the earth due to rubber-soled shoes 👟 and an increasingly concrete world. 👡 Yet, there are many amazing health benefits if we get outside and take our shoes off! 👠 BENEFITS OF GROUNDING: 🧘🏼♂️Reduces anxiety 😀Reduces depression 🩸Lowers blood pressure 🧬Neutralizes free radicals 💪Boosts your immune system 😴Promotes better sleep 🥊Fights inflammation associated with major illnesses such as heart disease and cancer 🏃🏽♂️Reduces the fight-or-flight cortisol levels 😩Helps with chronic pain management 🦠Boosts your microbiome health 👀Check out the IG LIVE SHOW on stress relief and the physiological sigh.
