Fight Those Age Spots and Sun Damage!


We all love the sun!! However, sometimes it doesn't always love us back! For that reason, I have to share with you my favorite new find in skin care that will help aid in the battle against aging gracefully!

It's a product line called Nia24. It's an amazing, Niacin-powered skin therapy system that my esthetician, Ginger, introduced me to a few months ago. I first fell in love with their moisturizing facial sunscreen while using the sample that she gave me. Now, it is definitely my warm weather, go-to skin care system! This line is designed to produce younger, healthier skin throughout the stages of Pre-damage, Post-damage, and then, the steps needed to UN-damage any skins cells in need of recovery from the sun and other climatic stresses. Their products all have a unique patented molecule called Pro-Niacin. The Pro-Niacin molecule penetrates the skin through a micronutrient delivery system, which then deposits the Niacin, otherwise known as B3, into the skin cells. You may be familiar with Niacin nutritionally and how it has been linked to cholesterol reduction and aid as an energy booster. More recently, it has been a key factor in helping the skin protect and repair itself from sun damage and aging. Over time, this patented molecule will actually help thicken the stratum corneum and the epidermal layers, which are the outermost layers of the epidermis.  As shown below in the cross section of a cheek biopsy that was done on two different patients you can visibly see the difference. 




As much as we love our fun in the sun it's important to remember the harsh affects that the sun has on us. This year alone one million people will be diagnosed with skin cancer.  Melanoma accounts for 3/4 of all deaths from skin cancer and kills more young women than any other cancer.  Those are astonishing facts and will definitely make me think twice the next time the thought of blowing it off "just this one timecrosses my mind! 


Check out their website that I listed below for more on the science behind skin health in general and learn more about the products they offer. Once you learn about how important it is and then try their products you'll be hooked like me!  


Remember ladies, as I always say, the secret to any great makeup application is GREAT skin care! We only have this one canvas so take care of the one you have!!
