MY NEW SHOWER BUDDY

IMG_7367

today it is all about the shower and I wanna share with you my newest shower buddy: LUBEX peeling. for the past ten years or more I have been daily using the DERMED wash lotion. my skin is very sensitive and dry and therefore I need to watch out for too rough and too drying out washlotions and peelings. the LUBEX peeling regenerates the skin and makes it velvety soft and thats exactly what we need in preparation for summer.

the cool thing about this peeling is that it is a 2 in 1 product, it is for the face and the body. but as I have already told you in previous posts I have couperose around my cheeks and thats why I have to handle these parts with special soft care. BUT I have been using the peeling for the body until tuesday night and I really liked it. at the moment showering is NOT a walk in the park as my bruises from the bike
accident burn when wet and being washed with lotion.

in general do not use any peeling too often, once or twice a week is enough for me.. and the most important thing after peeling aka exfoliating is to moisturize the skin. aww, there are so many nice ways to treat oneself, right? HOME SPA is one of them.

HOW TO USE AND WHERE?
apply to the damp skin, gently massage in a circular motion 15 to 30 seconds, let it soak for a moment and rinse thoroughly with water. thats it – as simple as any other peeling or exfoliator. it is perfect for rougher parts of the body  and it helps the
regeneration of the stratum corneum. for normal, oily or blemished skin it is also great for a facial scrub and the last option is to use it as  a supplementary therapy for acne, predominantly the non-inflammatory stage.

WHAT DOES THE MAGIC?
the active ingredients are polidocanol 600* and bisabolol** and they soothe the skin.
the LUBEX peeling washing cream has a 2-phase effect:
effect phase 1
small round polyethylene granules (microgranules scrub = biodegradable) remove dead skin cells and make the skin silky smooth.
effect phase 2
glycolic acid (fruit acid peel) regenerates the skin structure deep down and activates the skin renewal

*polidocanol is included in antipruritic and skin-care medicines, for external use only.

**bisabolol is an ingredient of chamomile with anti-inflammatory, disinfecting and wound healing promoting properties. it is externally applied for the treatment of skin diseases.

so I hope you have found this article interesting and that you now know more about my new shower buddy. have a lovely day. X

I DID IT – BOTOX!

for the hair not that you start to think I would do such thing I dont intend to at all – BOTOX for the hair is something completely different it renoutrishes and moisturizes the hair. Stefanie Winter uses the NIKA botox treatment and I was quiet shocked when I saw her with the needle BUT she only uses this to get the product out of its container. she then mixed it with lukewarm water. but first she washed my hair with a preparing, opening shampoo and then started applying the BOTOX from roots to ends in a layering technique. once she did my complete head she wrapped me in plastic foil and let me stay under the hood dryer for thirty minutes. then she rinsed my hair with cold water and that was it – next step: blowdrying and styling.

so, wait a second, what is BOTOX for the hair? it is a keratin and protein based treatment for all hair types but especially for dry, frizzy, brittle and chemicaly treated hair. the only exception is for curly hair: it will really soften down your curls but other than that it also nourrishes the often rather dry curly hair. the BOTOX treatment will make your hair thicker, stronger, repaired, soft and it will eliminate split ends – YAY!

I really benefited from this BOTOX treatment and I would totally do it again although it lasts over a month! since the treatment it feels a lot easier to blow dry my hair as my hair has more grip and shine. for the BASEL people: go and visit her salon behind Aeschenplatz and check out her amazing skills. there is not only Stefanie, there is a team behind her: Oli & Océan (apprentice) and Helena. Stefanie offers many other nice things such as a ayurvedic scalp massage with different oils for the different hair types.
