Skin and the City

How to take the city out of your skin             

Living in the city is exciting! Whether it’s the BUZZ, the crowd, or the late night meetups, CITY LIFE can be enticing.

Imagine waking up in the morning and being only 5 minutes away from your favorite coffee shop, and being able to grab a snack on your way to work.

But wait a minute, did you ever think what the city might do to your skin?

Like you, your skin faces a lot throughout the day. From the rush to the pollution, the weather, your lack of sleep, air-con and even your eating on the go.

This can lead to the appearance of blemishes, redness, dry patches and even wrinkles.

Why it happens?

Your skin is made of two main layers, the epidermis, which is the layer closest to the outside world and the dermis. The topmost layer is called the stratum corneum, which mostly acts as a barrier between the outside world and the lower skin layers.

This layer is home to dirt, oils, free radicals and bacteria that keep you away from the desired flawless complexion.

What you can do

You need to get rid of those dead skin cells that contain the dirt, and prevent it from entering the deeper layers of your skin, at least for a while. When absorbed in skin, you have dirt, chemicals, and oil entering your pores, making them appear larger, causing acne, redness, and blemishes. Our guess is that you don’t want this toxic stuff inside your skin.

How to treat?

The latest technology to have crossed over from Hollywood to at-home treatment is called microdermabrasion. This is a general term for the application of tiny rough grains on the skin to buff away the surface layer of the skin.

It works on all skin types and colors and it provides an effective alternative to invasive procedures like plastic surgery.

Microdermabrasion uses tiny exfoliating crystals or diamond flakes that are applied to the skin to gently remove the outermost layer of your skin.

Microdermabrasion delivers two simultaneous actions: exfoliation by a material like crystal or diamond flakes, and removal of the exfoliated debris by machine-based suction that gently lifts up the dead skin cells and dirt during exfoliation.

What are the Microdermabrasion options?

You can always pay a visit to your beauty salon, but this means you need to call the clinic, find a time that actually fits your schedule (which can be impossible) and spend at least $100 per session.

This also means you need to get there (subway? Taxi?) and spend energy and money on the endeavor each time. Or, you can use the Glo-Me Microdermabrasion Device as part of your skincare routine at home.

Why Glo-Me Dimond Microdermabrasion?

Other than the fact that it’s clinically proven to improve the skin’s appearance, it uses diamond flakes which are known to be efficient.

Glo-Me is portable, so this means you can use it anywhere and it takes less than 10 minutes to complete a treatment. Glo-me leaves your skin softer than ever and reduces acne, breakouts and any other blemishes.

You will see results from the very first use and immediately understand why it’s called Glo-Me!

It’s simple, safe, painless, and non-invasive skin rejuvenation device. The vacuum pressure and speed of Glo-Me are adjusted depending on the sensitivity and tolerance of the skin.

You can return immediately to your daily activity after a treatment session and even apply makeup and non-irritating creams.

What glo-Me does?

Glo-Me removes the dirt, oils, and black heads in addition to dead skin cells. This skin rejuvenation treatment leaves your complexion looking softer and brighter.

What’s good about this method is that it makes subtle changes, causing no skin color change nor scarring.

All of the action takes place at the level of the stratum corneum. Affecting deeper layers of skin would be painful and harmful, and it would risk permanently embedding the tiny grains into the skin.

Glo-Me, however, targets only the epidermis, the outer layer and not the dermis, so there’s no inner damage caused.

Don’t let the city bring your skin down, simply use Glo-Me!
