Your
daily schedule is filled to the brim with tasks that leave little to no time
for expensive pore-minimizing facials or wrinkle-tightening laser treatments.
But before you throw your daily cleanser out with last week’s To Do list, know
this – your busy life doesn't have to deny you of great skin. Think your load
is too big to get everything thing done and
be beautiful? Think again. Here's a list of on-the-go products and tips that
will keep your skin looking young and fresh despite your demanding schedule.
On-The-Go Products
Let’s
face it, some mornings you get up way too late, and the only thing you have
time to do is, brush your teeth and get to work. Keep a package of the
REDEFINE Eye Cloths on you for this very hurried occasion. It will gently remove dirt,
oil, and other foreign matter with a swift swipe. Added peptides stimulate
collagen production, which supports smoother, tighter looking skin.
Use for: Make-Up Removal, Cleansing, Anti-Age
This
mineral based powder acts as 3, or maybe more, products in one. At first glance,
you’ll notice that it offers a matted tint that goes on light and will quickly evens
out skin tone, while reducing shine and redness. The
ENHANCEMENTS Mineral Peptides powder comes in 3 shades (light, medium, dark) and users have even been
known to utilize the darker shade as a bronzer to add facial dimension. A
second look, tells you that it’s an SPF 20 sunscreen. And since sunscreen should
be applied about every 2 hours, this product offers a way to protect yourself
from the sun and other environmental aggressors, without feeling as if you have
a thin layer of facial grease by the end of the day. Lastly, peptides that
stimulate collagen production have been infused into this product. Thus, every
application acts as an anti-age treatment, reducing fine lines and wrinkles
with every stroke. Stash this versatile product along with the retractable
Anti-Microbial Kabuki Brush in your bag, for quick on-the-go applications of
all the benefits it has to offer.
Use for: Sun Protection, Color / Tone, Redness, Fortifying, Anti-Age

quick and easy exfoliating bar can be used while you shower. Along with buffing and softening every
part of your hard-working body, if you suffer from Keratosis Pilaris (small
clusters of acne like bumps) on your arms and legs, back acne, chest acne, and
darn I say it… butt acne, this product is not only for you, it is a MUST for
your troubled skin condition. Exfoliating is a very important part of
successfully treating body acne, and the affordable retail price definitely
plays a big role in why we like this easy-to-use product.

your skin’s tone and resilience.

Recognized
by
Harper’s Bazaar Magazine as an
Editors' Choice, this power packed packette
contains a potent, proprietary blend of peptides and retinol to visibly improve
skin texture and firmness, while reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
Dermatologists have been prescribing retinol
for decades, to better the skin’s texture and minimize pores. Patented
time-release technology increases skin’s receptivity of the serum throughout
the night, while reducing the chances of irritation. The capsule form of this
product allows for easy transport and ensures that the retinol will remain
potent until application.

Although,
there are many ways to skim over the steps in your anti-age regimen, there is
one a.m. product
Dr. Joshua Zeichner, Director of Cosmetic and Clinical Research at
Mount Sinai Medical Center, says you should never skip: an antioxidant infused
moisturizer. This particular product is an ultra-hydrating cream, which
replenishes the skin’s natural moisturizing factors while you sleep for visibly
firmer skin in the morning. This complex prevents moister loss with dynamic
ingredients like hyaluronic acid and glycerin. It also, replenishes vital
nutrients, essential to healthy skin, with antioxidants A, C, and E.
Use for: Moisturizing, Nourishing, Anti-Age
This
noninvasive product utilizes micro-exfoliation technology for visibly advanced
skin-firming benefits. In clinical studies, users have experienced smoother,
softer skin just after one use, and with daily use the benefits range from a
reduction in wrinkles, to an actual natural lift. A quick roll around the corners
of the eyes and lips will instantly plump the affected skin, for on-the-go
purposes. The roller creates tiny channels in the skin that provide two
benefits.
Firstly, it stimulates
the skin to begin producing collagen and healing properties, pushing them to
the surface of the skin. This process causes the skin to heal it’s self,
repairing elastin fibers and the overall skin surface, thus this product is
perfect for fading scars. Secondly, the tiny channels allow the paired
REDEFINE Night Renewing Serum and other daily regimen products to impact the skin at an epidermis
level, resulting in amplified results.
Use for: Mirco-Exfoliation, Enlarged Pores, Scars / Post Acne Marks, Ant-Age
Quick Tips For
On-The-Go Skincare
1.
Choose skin friendly foods: Load up
on skin-boosting foods throughout your day instead of choosing salty, oily,
processed snacks. Hydrate your skin and reduce the signs of aging from the
inside out by eating foods high in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon and walnuts,
says
Dr. Joshua Zeichner. A good amount of leafy green veggies like kale, spinach,
Swiss chard, and arugula, which are rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene and
vitamin E, will help minimize damage caused by pesky free radical. And eat tomatoes!
Those red gems are high in lycopene, which fortifies the skin with sun
protecting properties that fight off the signs of aging. Adding in a few dark
berries, such as blueberries, for a blast of antioxidants will help neutralize
free radicals and support collagen production.
2. Multi-task: My favorite time
saving tasks are the ones that allow me to kill 2 birds, or even 3 birds, with
the same stone. Instead of missing out on the benefits that can be gained from
a good facial mask, double it up with the time you spend brushing and flossing
your teeth. Maybe even, add in a leave-in hair treatment at the same time!
3. Know your skin type: Everyone’s
skin is different, thus we all must have a personalized routine in order to
achieve our best skin. For example, if you have oily skin, prone to acne, you
will need to make sure you are at least washing the residue from the day off
regularly at night. For this particular skin type, solely using fast cleansing
clothes all the time is just not enough to effectively treat your acne problems.
The point is to know what is necessary in order to maintain your skin’s natural
beauty. Follow this

dermatological consultation to find the right regimen for your particular skin
type.
4. Take Oral Supplements: The right
kind of oral supplement will breakdown and be absorbed by your body, the cheap
kind will just pass right through. Invest in high quality supplements that you
can pop when you feel you didn’t get enough vitamins throughout the
day. Vitamins A, C, and E are essential to collagen production and keeping you
skin looking young and supple. If your daily diet is lacking in any of those, have a supplemental supply ready to fill that nutrition gap.
