Here I am… fabulous and 50! Also, with dull, dry skin. Breakouts? Yup! More confessions? Okay! I NEVER take off my make-up before I go to bed. I wake up like a tired raccoon! I may, or may not exfoliate in the shower in the morning. I never use a moisturizer because I was so afraid of more break outs. After my recent weight loss journey, I started to do things that matched my nutrition journey and passion for putting the right things in to my body. But, I realized after talking with Chelsea at La Bella Derma in Winooski, (who I have known for over a year now) it’s never too late to start a simple, skin care regimen to benefit my facial appearance too! We went with a Dermaplane treatment. It sloughs off dead skin and bonus: removes the peach fuzz! Then she did some small extractions (I love that!) and used her new Organic line she created, for cleanser and mist; make sure you check out Lilian Sophia Skincare. The reaction when I see my new skin for the first time in the video (here) is genuine. I was in shock! At that moment I also knew I didn’t just “get a facial”. I got a self care, self love treatment that I deserved. Just like deserving a better life with weight loss. We MUST start to take care of the bodies and the skin we are in, now! La Bella Derma is giving away a year of facials. When I say facials, it’s a year of a skin treatment plan. What are your needs? How can La Bella Derma best suit your skin care needs?
