Many people don’t understand why they need to invest in professional grade skincare products. It’s not because salons, spas or estheticians just want to sell you an expensive product and make a commission.
The commercial, and sometimes even name brand skin care products can get the basic job done of cleansing and moisturizing. Maybe. And maybe sometimes. Many cleansers can strip the skin of its’ natural, beneficial oils, over-drying it and causing skin to then overproduce oils and get out of balance or even clog pores due to cheap, low-quality oils like petroleum and mineral oil.
Grabbing a mask or other skin care product at the convenience or grocery store is about as good for you skin as fast food. It may also cause irritation or breakout due to harsh fragrance or dyes.
There is a noticeable difference between professional, commercial, department store or specialty beauty store brands. Many over-the-counter products contain fillers that allow companies to save money on ingredients, water, dehydrating alcohols and include cheaper less-effective ingredients that may exacerbate skin issues.
Professional grade skin care may seem more expensive however, it is made with higher quality, clinically validated ingredients that were specifically chosen for their proven results. These ingredients are concentrated, effective and included in the recipe for their precise function. Also, instead of being a one-size-fits-all, professional grade products are tailored to focus on specific conditions and concerns to meet your needs.
Additionally, professionals, such as estheticians, have been formally trained in using Physician-grade products both in the facial room, but also when selecting home-care products for their clients to meet their client’s goals.
Always buy your products from trusted retailers and professionals.
Also, please take note that products purchased online, such as Amazon, may be counterfeit/fake, altered, expired or worse. For example, these dangerous ingredients have been found in high concentrations in counterfeit products: lead, copper, mercury, arsenic and cardamom.
