Think you’re skin smart or want to take your skincare knowledge to the next level? This is the guide for you! I’ll be giving you the 411 on how to pick out the proper skincare ingredients for your skin and how to treat it from the inside out. Let’s get started!

Did you know your SKIN has metabolism? Pretty crazy, isn’t it? And it’s just as important as your body’s metabolism!
When we’re young our skin has a super FAST metabolism. That’s why babies have such perfect skin!
Getting in‑office procedures like facials, lasers and peels is like taking your skin to the gym. If you’re not taking advantage of these treatments your skin is missing out! So, give us a call or text at 248-663-0161 to book your skin workout and get that metabolism running smoothly!
I get asked a lot about how many products should be in your skincare routine. Unfortunately, there’s no one size fits all situation, so I’ll give you some insight into skincare “theory”, so to speak!
Skincare routines will be different for everyone based on their skin type and skin goals. For some, a 5 step routine will work great, others will want to use more or less. Those of you with sensitive skin will want to use fewer ingredients on your skin, while those with acne or aging skin will want to use more aggressive products.
It’s all about BALANCE! So make sure you use products that aren’t too aggressive or that strip the skin.
If you want to be really extra, look for more advanced multi‑functional products with multiple active ingredients, so you’re getting more ingredients in fewer products! Well formulated products can be layered, giving you all the skincare goodness that you need.
If you’re looking for some amazing medical‑grade, multi‑functional products to treat all types of skin, check out my Skin Saint line at theskinsaint.com!

Now that you know what to look for in your skincare, you should probably know how to read the labels!
Remember how we talked about humectants above? Those will be at the top of the label ‑ ingredients like water and glycerine.
Next up are actives. For the most part, you want these HIGH up in the list so you know the product contains a lot of them, which will make it more effective when treating your skin. These are the ingredients that give your skincare products it’s “characteristics” and help treat your skin.
On the other hand, other very potent actives are best at 1% like retinoids, so this might not always be the case.
Take a look at some of my other videos and guides to learn the best ingredients for your skin type and skin goals, so you know what to look for on these labels. You want to use the RIGHT products for you!
P.S. To make things even easier, we have The Skin Saint products grouped by skin type on our website to take out the guesswork!
Are you familiar with free radicals? Unfortunately, your skin is!
Free radicals are the enemy of beauty. They’re unstable molecules that steal electrons from your cells that cause them to malfunction. Sounds kind of scary!
You can expect to see things like:
…all the things we work so hard to avoid! So, what can you do?
Use Topical antioxidants like niacinamide, Vitamin C, Vitamin E and Ferulic Acid, all of which are found in my CEF+ Peptide Serum! You can also try out my Amplify AH Serum, which combats damage from the environment, cell phones and computers.
Most importantly, use these DAILY ‑ and start when you’re young! You’ll thank me later.
