Skincare Tips for Moms: 4 Easy Steps to Healthy Skin

Let’s face it, Moms are awesome! It’s almost as if they have super human power able to work 24 hour shifts with extremely developed skills in negotiation, conflict resolution, crisis management, boo-boo specialist, culinary genius, transportation dispatch operator, psychologist, fashion consultant, hairdresser, bugger bobber, laundry master, financial wizard and lover. With all these jobs how would you find time to pamper your skin and give it the love and attention it deserves? Moms are too busy giving everyone else their love and attention that they often forget to give it to themselves. So this Mother’s Day I say everyone take a moment to return the favor to all of the wonderful, amazing mom’s out there. And moms don’t forget to pamper yourself!

Since moms have so many important jobs and demands we came up with 4 Easy Skincare Steps for Moms.

Step 1: Cleansing

Simple is key here. You need to find a good cleanser that your skin responds well to, and stick with it. Here are our Premier recommended cleansers for your skin type.

We suggest you choose a creamy cleanser if you have dry skin or a clear cleanser if you have oily skin.

Be careful not to cleanse too often as over-cleansing the skin, will potentially give you rashes or even adult acne as a response. At night, remember to remove makeup and sunscreen, which can clog the pores.

If you have dry skin, consider the Premier Milk Cleanser and simply apply then wipe off, no water needed (if you have hard water, it can be especially harsh on skin). It is enriched with special conditioners to provide essential moisture for the skin while gently cleansing and protecting it.

Most women prefer to cleanse with warm water to loosen dirt and clogged pore as. If that is your case, use a dime-sized bit of the Premier Cleansing Facial Gel, and then rinse with cool or lukewarm water for a nice, pH 5.5 balanced skin. It is made of pure essential oils and soap-less face cleansing gel that cleanses and balances the skin.

To complement the treatment, using a gentle antiseptic Toner will delicately remove last traces of makeup while soothing and comforting the skin. Skin feels rejuvenated, relaxed and refreshed.

It is important to use toner, instead of regular tap water, because tap water contains heavy metals, such as lead, zinc, and iron, and thus may cause damage to the delicate facial skin.

Step 2: Exfoliate

Exfoliation is the step most people skip in their weekly skincare routine. But trust us, if you start properly exfoliating your skin, you will notice an immediate difference.

We recommend using a naturally based facial scrub up to 2-3 times a week. A good one is Premier Exfoliating and Cleansing Facial Gel. It is enriched with micro-plant seeds and aromatic oils to clean and exfoliate the face skin, increase circulation and balance skin tissue. It removes the top layer of dead skin cells that tend to dull your complexion and block your skin from absorbing the essential nutrients in your everyday skincare.

Step 3: Moisturize

Moisturizer is key to keeping your skin looking younger and radiant. It helps your skin to hold water which in return helps to decrease the effects of aging. A good anti aging moisturizer is always a good investment.

The Premier Moisture Cream Complex is a nourishing, hydrating moisturizer for normal to oily skin that balances and reconditions the skin and combats wrinkles. It moisturizes and hydrates the skin while simultaneously controlling excess oil secretion.

So how much should you moisturize? Your skin will tell you. When your skin is tight, it’s crying out for moisture. Be careful not to over-moisturize — this can clog pores.
Are eye creams necessary? We strongly recommend eye creams. Why? The skin around the eye contains no fatty tissue and is therefore very thin and susceptible to wrinkles. Try the Premier Eye Kit and find our more information on our Beauty Blog.

Step 4: Apply Sunscreen

The #1 cause of wrinkles is sun damage, so it’s important to use a sunscreen of at least 15 SPF from your early years on even in winter and on cloudy days. When choosing a sunscreen, make sure it contains Mexoryl or Helioplex.

There you have it, 4 easy skincare steps for our busy super moms. Thank you for all that you do and have the best Mother’s Day yet!

3 Easy Steps to Healthy, Happy Hands

The two most exposed parts of our body to everyday environmental elements are our face and our hands, which is why we need to take extra special care of both of them. Today we will discuss ways to treat, pamper and increase the healthiness of our hands; after all we use them every day.

Step 1: Exfoliate – Hands take a lot of abuse in our everyday activity; like constant washing, handling of objects, as well as, being constantly exposed to hot and cold climates. Exfoliating your skin regularly will help you get rid of dry cracked skin, increase circulation and promote skin cell renewal. Yes! Most importantly, By removing the dead skin cells that are clogging your pores, you will be able to better absorb the active ingredients in your skincare products that you use every day. We recommend trying the natural Premier Dead Sea Aromatic Mineral Body Treatment once a week, for best results.

Step 2: Moisturize – Once you unclogged the pores and revitalized the skin on your hands, keeping your skin hydrated is very important in maintaining its appearance and health and is a crucial step in your daily skin care regimen. Signs of premature aging of the hands and dryness indicate that your skin is not getting enough moisture. For healthy, glowing skin try the Premier Luxury Hand Cream or the Premier Aromatic Body Butter.

Step 3: Manicure – Regular manicures have many benefits including; Smoothing rough nails while removing bacterial and fungal growth, softening and hydrating the hands and cuticles, preventing hang nail formation, relieving stress, increasing circulation and leaving the skin smoother, younger and softer.

Beauty Tips – Younger, Healthier, More Beautiful Skin

Beauty Tips – Younger, Healthier, More Beautiful Skin

The Dead Sea has been known for years as the world’s largest natural spa and for its therapeutic powers. Queen Cleopatra, the most beautiful woman in the world in ancient times, made the Dead Sea her beauty SPA of choice. Since then, thousands of visitors have visited the Dead Sea area for improving their health and skin condition as well as their well being. All of our products originate at the Dead Sea in Israel and are made from the finest ingredients nature has to offer.

Our beauty consultants have gathered these Beauty Tips for you to achieve a younger, healthier, and more beautiful skin:

  1. Daily cleansing is the most important step. Cleanse your face twice a day. Morning cleansing is essential to remove the dead cells that our skin generates during the night. Evening cleansing is important to cleanse the dirt, dust, make-up, and toxins from the environment. Recommended from our line: Milk Cleanser (A1) or a Facial Cleansing Gel (A57 or A37).

  2. Skin Toner is important to tone and balance your skin to an optimal pH of 5.5 to prevent generating bacteria. A pH of 5.5 is the ideal skin condition for the acceptance of the nutrients in serums and creams. Recommended from our line: Toner for Normal to Dry skin (A02) or Toner for Normal to Oily skin (A2).

  3. Serums enhance the moisturizing process. By applying a serum before a cream, it allows the cream to dissolve and be utilized more effectively during the next 7 hours (In other words, serum is time released). After cleansing, apply a Facial Serum (G104, L2, or B8 [oil-free]) on the face and Eye Serum (A56) around the eye area.

  4. Day Moisturizers are essential to protect and keep the skin from drying. Dry skin is dehydrated which throughout the years will generate wrinkles. We offer 3 daily moisturizers for different ages and types of skin: Moisturizing Emulsion (A521), Moisture Complex (A11), Day Cream Complex (A16), and BIOX Intensive Age Treatment Cream (L1). All of these creams have a natural SPF 17.

  5. Night Cream: During sleep, our skin is relaxed and is willing to accept nourishment unlike day time when the skin is stressed. Premier highly recommends Night Cream Complex (A14) which is rich in nourishment and stimulates the Collagen and Elastin. For special night treatments, we also recommend Anti-Aging Cream (A18) which fights wrinkles and Pearl White Cream Complex (B3) which combats age and sun spots.

  6. Masks enhance daily treatments. Premier offers several masks, each for a specific purpose.

I) Miracle Noir Mask (A10): Opens the pores, cleanses the toxins, exfoliates dead skin, moisturizes, has a whitening effect, and brings oxygen to the skin which will encourage quick skin renewal.

II) Professional Peeling Mask (A53): Our skin generates dead cells throughout the day and night. These dead skin cells need to be removed to allow fresher, brighter skin to appear. We recommend using the Professional Peeling Mask (A53) twice a week. This mask exfoliates dead skin cells and activates new skin growth. Your own fresh new skin will emerge immediately.

III) Collagen, Beta-Carotene & Seaweed Mask – Normal to Dry Skin (A49): After peeling, the skin needs to be stabilized and nourished with the Collagen, Beta-Carotene & Seaweed Mask – Normal to Dry (A49). Collagen is important for the elasticity of the skin which prevents wrinkles. Everyone starts to lose collagen by age 22. Our Collagen, Beta-Carotene & Seaweed Mask targets particularly dehydrated areas and fine lines to nourish the skin and help prevent premature aging. It helps smooth wrinkles and fine lines while protecting against the formation of new wrinkles. Seaweed is the only living organism in the Dead Sea. It acts as a natural antibiotic and filter to help remove toxins. For oily skin, we offer the Mud, Seaweed & Honey Mask – Normal to Oily (A48).

IV) Instant Stretching & Revitalizing (Lifting) Mask (A.K.A Cinderella Mask) (C5): Uses essential oils and active ingredients blended in a secret process enabling the skin to revive itself within 10-20 minutes, resulting in fresh and younger looking skin. This intensive new treatment successfully combats external evidence of marks and wrinkles to give the face an “Instant Face Lift”.

V) Thermal Beauty Experience Mask (A80): An immediate action thermal warming and energizing mask which features a distinct warming phase. It helps open the pores while absorbing dirt, oil, and toxins. This mask cleanses, exfoliates, purifies, supports healthy skin cell rejuvenation and increases blood circulation to help reduce wrinkles. (Part of the BIOX series treatment)

VI) Mask for Problematic Skin (Acne Prone & Damaged Skin) (A54): A luxury, professional mask to accelerate rejuvenation of skin texture, correct balance and prevent generating bacteria. This exclusive formula contains sulfur which is an essential nutrient needed by the skin to help combat imperfections and pigmentation problems including blemishes.

NOTE:

  • Avoid sun exposure because it will accelerate the loss of collagen, while damaging and aging the skin very rapidly.
  • It is recommended to alternate between moisture creams twice a year to keep your face stimulated and rejuvenated.
  • Wash your face with warm, not hot water.
