The Blog Skin SOS for the season change

With the changing of seasons, it might be time to shake up your skin care routines.

The elements can have a major affect on the health of our skin so we need to adapt our products to protect our delicate skin accordingly. So where do we start?

 

Moisturise

Whether your skin is oily or dry you will often see changes as the seasons shift so the moisturiser you are using will need to change too!

Switching to a heavier duty product can help combat dryness and keep your moisture levels high even when the indoor temperatures are low!!

If you are DRY

We like Cosmedix Humidify Deep Moisturizing Cream, available at Contour Clinics. You may want to use this as a night time moisturiser and something lighter in the day depending on your level of dryness.

We love Revision D.E.J day cream with Vitamin E and Goji fruit extract to smooth and brighten your skin.

Why not try our Beauty Booster Hyaluronic Treatment to hydrate, smooth fine lines and restore a youthful dewy complexion.

If you are OILY

We like Cosmedix Shineless Moisturiser. This is an oil free moisturiser suitable for oily and acne prone skin. Don’t make the mistake of skipping this essential step even if your skin is oily, not moisturising will simply exacerbate your oil production as your skin will try to compensate for what its not getting from you!

Ask us about our LED Light Therapy to eliminate break-out causing P acne bacteria.

Lips

Your lips tend to suffer in weather extremes- in summer they burn and in winter they chap! So while you might be breaking out those fluro zinc sticks for another season, how do we keep our lips hydrated and plump too?

Hyaluronic Acid Lip Fillers restore hydration and lost volume to dry cracking and deflated lips. Book in for a complimentary consultation with one of our Specialist Cosmetic Doctors today to find our which premium lip filler is suitable for you!

If your lips are prone to chapping, use a lip scrub to gently exfoliate away any dry skin. We love Cosmedix Detox Scrub- suitable for your whole face and even body this granular scrub polishes and smooths away any dry flakey skin leaving your lips super soft and kissable and ready for summer loving!

Sun Protection

Regardless of the season, in this sun drenched country never ever skip on SPF. A lot of products these days have built in protection but I always like to be safer rather than sorry.

Revision Intellishade TruPhysical Broad Spectrum SPF 45 Sunscreen is our favourite at Contour Clinics. For those pesky and complexion ruining pigmentation spots, speak to us about our Medical Grade Laser Pigmentation Removal treatments.

We can gently and painlessly remove your pigmentation and even hard to treat Melasma and restore your flawless complexion in just a few treatments.

So while you may be stripping down to your itty bitty bikini and hitting our beautiful beaches, rest assured your skin will stay healthy and protected with the help of Contour Clinics.
