Festival Survival tips for girls who don’t do festivals! April 30, 2009
It’s a brave girl who can get through the entire festival without makeup, and I salute her. I however, wouldn’t be caught dead. If you are of the same mindset, I suggest the following items:
1. Korres party survival kit (contains bottles small enough to last the weekend, 3 in 1 cleanser, radiance boosting moisturiser, lemon chewing gum, dark circle diminishing eyecream, guava body butter and shower gel -smells super fresh, lasts longer than perfume and is cheaper). £15 isn’t bad for the full weekends skin and body care regime. Plus your skin will need all the help it can get with being outdoors in unpredictible weather, the alcohol dehydration and junk food.
2. Bare Escentuals foundation, this is fab as it has a ‘physical barrier’ spf basically meaning you don’t have to keep applying greasy spf and you will look fabulous. If you aren’t already using bare escentuals make up, shame on you! It’s so pure you can sleep in it! No chemicals, no artificial colours, no preservatives, I could go on. Hell, you might end up coming back from the festival looking better than you did before!
3. Korres lip butter-Korres Lip Butter gives lips a lovely, shiny finish and offers a natural flush when applied to the apples of the cheeks. Its shea-butter infusion conditions and heals lips and provides a softening touch to the skin
4. Blinc mascara. Don’t paint your lashes.. That’s just asking for trouble at a festival.. Tube them! This mascara has always came out tops when put under the toughest tests for rubbing, water, oil, grease. I honestly think you would only need to apply this once the whole weekend, it is simply fantastic. It forms glossy tubes around the lashes that plain stay put! It was the envy of my friends at t in the park, I don’t do panda eyes!!
5. Other things that might be handy, mitchum deoderant (it’s the strongest on the market, lasts 48 hours), Body wipes, hand santiser (warning.. festival toilets traumatic), BIG sunglasses (hide a multitude of sins). Work that festival hair (try plaits, hairbands, scarfs and a hat). Apply fake tan a couple of days before you too!

Frequently Asked Questions July 30, 2008
Frequently Asked Questions |
| Is Talika LIPOCILS for the eyelashes really effective at growing and thickening lashes?
Lipocils is clinically proven to stimulate the natural growth of the lashes. For as long as the hair roots are not permanently damaged (this can only be determined through a medical examination) the hair will grow and attain their maximum length. Some of the factors which may damage the hair roots are severe alopecia, burns, tattoo, or severe plucking.
It normally takes 28 days to see the positive result of the products. However, due to some reasons, it may take a longer period of time for others to notice the result. I know I should remove my makeup at bedtime, but I always feel so tired. Is it really bad if I leave it on from time to time?
It is best to break this habit sooner rather than later! One should always remove ALL makeup from the face before going to bed at night. Leaving makeup on the skin enlarges the pores, which is a part of aging. Additionally, leaving makeup on the face could lead to inflammation, which can generate free radicals and collagen breakdown. If your skin is maintained properly, its natural healing powers will be maximized, and it will stay in better condition for a longer period of time. The All-in-One Facial Cleanser with Toner removes makeup, cleans the face, and tones the skin all at once. This product is best applied to dry skin with dry hands in order to properly bind to the dirt and oil molecules.
Especially in the winter, I’m plagued by little white bumps on the backs of my arms. What are they and what can I do about them? This sounds like a typical case of Keratosis Pilaris, commonly referred to as “chicken skin.” This skin condition is commonly seen on the upper arms, buttocks, and thighs and causes small bumps to form that have a rough, dry feeling. They are usually white in color but sometimes can appear red. They should not itch or hurt, and are not contagious. Keratosis Pilaris is caused by plugged pores in the hair follicles, which result in tiny bumps on the surface of the skin. This condition worsens in the winter because there is less humidity in the air and the skin tends to dry out more quickly due to harsh weather conditions and the increase of household heaters, etc. We recommend Md Skincare Alpha Beta Daily Body Peel 2 Steps.
Many people complain about dark under-eye circles. Is it true that your diet can exacerbate the problem? If so, which foods should you avoid and why? Is there anything else you recommend for dark under-eye circles? Lifestyle habits such as smoking, drinking too much caffeine, overindulging in alcohol, and not sleeping enough can result in dark under-eye circles. Nicotine, alcohol and caffeine cause the capillaries to leak iron and blood cells into the under-eye area, giving it a dark appearance. In addition to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, keeping allergy and sinus conditions in check can help to reduce dark circles. Helpful ingredients include Vitamin K, Vitamin C and retinoids. I recommend the Lift & Lighten Eye Cream Advanced Technology which contains all of these active ingredients.
Is a man’s skin really any different from a woman’s? Men have a mechanical difference in their skin due to facial skin growth and distinctive oil chemistry. On top of that, the daily stress on the skin from shaving adds to men’s needs. We recommend Korres Marigold and Ginseng Aftershave Balm active with Aloe® and provitamin B5 soothe post-shave rash whilst effectively moisturising the skin.
Can MD Skincare® products, including the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel, be used in conjunction with Retin-A, Renova, Differins, Avita or Accutane? Absolutely. My only caution is that if a client wishes to use the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel (and Alpha Beta® Body Peel), they should stop using prescription retinoic acid products for two nights prior to their initial application as there is a small chance the combination could be irritating. Once they have used the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel for a day or two with no irritation, they can resume their normal schedule of Retin-A or other retinoic products.
May I safely use MD Skincare® products if I am allergic to aspirin? Do not use MD Skincare® products without approval of your physician.
Is there anyone who should not use the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel or Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel? Anyone with an active facial rash should not use the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel/ Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel. If you are prone to rashing or excessively dry skin, start off using the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel/ Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel every second or third day and build to a comfortable schedule.
If the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel or Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel are left on too long, will it burn the skin? No. The formula provides a controlled exfoliating and tightening effect; leaving it on more than three minutes will not result in deeper penetration.
Are the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel and Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel good for acne? Yes. One of the best uses for the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel is for acne conditions. Its active ingredients are very effective at unblocking pores and keeping pores and oil glands clear.
Can the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel or Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel be used by pregnant women? Absolutely. The Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel/ Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel do not contain any ingredients that would affect a pregnancy in any way. The Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel followed by the Hydra-Pure® Radiance Renewal Serum AM and Hydra-Pure® Vitamin C Serum PM will actually help to treat melasma which is a hyper-pigmentation condition that pregnant women may experience. It is also good to wear a sunscreen as melasma is very sun sensitive. There IS CONFLICT over what’s safe for pregnancy. Glycolic and OTC strength salicylic acid are safe but I tell patients not to use salicylic acid even at OTC strength (which maxes out at 2%) more than once a day. Benzoyl peroxide and hydroquinone whitening creams should probably be avoided during pregnancy. Is the Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel stronger than the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel? Yes. Stronger acids are used because the skin on the body is thicker than skin on the face.
Will the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel or Alpha Beta® Daily Body Peel make me photo sensitive? With normal sunscreen protection, which we advise (SPF 30) applied immediately after the peel, then you should not experience any photo sensitivity.
Is the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel compatible with other skin product brands? Yes, our products are compatible with other brands. However, it is important to remember that MD Skincare® products were developed to demonstrate optimal performance when used in conjunction with one another. Each product formulation compliments the next and there is a regime for everyone! Similar ingredients that have been proven to work best when consistently applied together are utilized in all product formulations.
Can I use Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel more than once a day? Some individuals report better results when used twice per day, but it is not required.
What is the youngest age you recommend to begin using Alpha Beta®Daily Face Peel? The Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel is specifically formulated for all skin types and ages. It treats all types of acne with the exception of cystic acne- so is quite effective for young teenagers or those who are experiencing problems with breakouts. It improves the tone, texture and clarity of the skin. As this product is first and foremost an anti-aging product that boosts and stimulates collagen production in the skin, it is also very appropriate for women who are trying to prevent wrinkles, as well as those who are trying to “turn back the clock” and delay the onset of additional signs of aging. Will Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel help treat rosacea? Yes. Rosacea is an inflammatory acne. To reduce inflammation, our peel contains green tea. For acne, it contains salicyilic acid, glycolic acid and the peel is naturally exfoliative.
Will using Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel cause my skin to break out? Absolutely not. Sometimes tiny bumps occur within the first few days as the deep waxy oily plugs blocking the pores are purged and cleaned out. |
