LIP CARE - 3 SIMPLE WAYS TO CARE FOR THE LIPS DURING HARMATTAN

Hi people, so the harmattan is upon us and it is taking a harsh turn on people, harmattan is a weather condition in Nigeria. For us at Sleek Studio Nigeria, we think its a good time to take care of our Skin and practice healthy Skin regime. We will like to share with you top 3 simple ways to take care of your Lips to avoid cracked / chapped lips

• Drink lots of water to avoid dehydration of the lips and skin.
• Dont Lick your lips, saliva evaporates quickly and causes the lips to dry out fast.
• Use a healthy lip balm which contains Vitamin E (S.studio Glowshine)

For the Love of you our fans, here is a healthy lip regime you should try out for kissable nice lips (Lips Exfoliation).

• Mix a blend of Sugar and honey, scrub your lips with the tip of your finger if your lips are delicate or with a soft toothbrush for 20 seconds.
• Rinse with water
• Apply lemon and allow it to stay for 1 minute
• Rinse off with water, allow to dry then apply Lip balm.

NOTE: If you already have chapped lips, please treat with aloe vera and lip balm before exfoliating.

HAVE A SKINCARE ROUTINE - This part is where I like to lay emphasis on, this part involves the physical practices such as the type of product we use, the content of the product, how we clean and care for our skin during and after the day's activity. I will break this part into key notes:

• Avoid the harsh rays of the Sun, if you must go under the sun, wear your hat or your sunshade and use Sunscreen protection (S.studio Protect Me Restore Me with an spf of 30), a tested and trusted skincare product such as the S.STUDIO SKINCARE RANGE.
•  Avoid touching and pinching your face with dirty hands.
• Wash your makeup brushes and keep them safe to prevent bacteria from breeding.

This treatment combines deep cleansing, lymphatic drainage massage to combat facial puffiness and diamond microdermabrasion.

Diamond microdermabrasion helps to get rid of those extra layers to reveal smooth glowing skin. This procedure is safe because it uses diamond chip covered heads instead of plain crystals to gently but deeply exfoliate while vacuuming debris away at once. It leaves skin fresh and younger looking. It removes pigmented top skin layers and improves the appearance of superficial scars. It also stimulates skin regeneration.

N12,000 (30,000 for 3 sessions)

Vi Peel Treatment;

This is the ultimate Peel experience. Natural fruit acids are applied on the skin. This causes superficial cell lysis which leads to entire peeling of the face within two days. After the peeling process, new skin is soft, bright, lighter, and smoother. Repeat treatments is excellent for acne scars, melisma, dark skin patches, tired lack lustre skin and so much more.

N40,000 per session.

SKIN CARE SERIES WITH S.STUDIO SIGNATURE - HOW TO IDENTIFY YOUR SKIN TYPE

Do you know your skin type? Do you know the first step to effective skin care is knowing your skin type and knowing what skin care product is good for you. There are different factors that determine what kind of skin type one should  classify their skin as. These factors are : Oil content and Water content
Oil content: This affects the softness of the skin.
Water content: This affects the skin elasticity.
The level of these content in the skin determines where one should classify their skin. There are Four Skin types and most of us fall into one of these categories which are:

• Normal Skin
• Dry Skin
• Oily Skin
• Combination Skin

How To Identify Normal Skin: If you have a slightly Oily Tzone (skin around the forehead, nose, and chin) and a dry Czone (skin around the chin and cheek), then that is a normal skin. This skin type is neither oily or dry, it has few or no blemish, it comes with a radiant complexion, less sweat and barely visible pores.

How To Identify Dry Skin: This type of skin is associated with small pores, it shows flakes of dead skin, if your Tzone and Czone is always dry and wrinkled, then you have a dry skin

How To Identify Oily Skin: This type of skin is characterized by large pores and it is also greasy. If the Tzone and Czone is always sweaty and Oily, then you have an oily skin.

How To Identify Combination Skin: This type of skin is a combination of the Normal, Dry and Oily skin. Usually the Skin is Oily in the Tzone and feels Dry or Normal in order areas. Here there are patches of dry and oily skin.

This Skincare series will run for some weeks on this blog, so all you need to know about Skincare will be on this blog. Just keep a date with us.
