Allyson Says:Beautiful skin begins with healthy skin. GRASS is an acronym for a skincare regimen that incorporates everything you need to achieve healthy, glowing, beautiful skin.
- Growth Factors
- Retinols
- Antioxidants
- Specialty Products
- Sun Protection
Each component of the GRASS regimen has a specific purpose. Growth Factors such as TNS Recovery Complex rebuild collagen and treat fine lines and wrinkles. Retinol is a chemical exfoliant that addresses acne, pores, fine lines, wrinkles, skin texture, skin discolorations, and acts as a vehicle for any product applied prior. Antioxidants lsuch as SkinMedica Vitamin C&E Complex protect against free radicals and basically slow down the aging process. Specialty Products would encompass any product(s) for your unique needs ie. Acne, brightening, redness relief, scar recovery. Sun Protection is for UV defense (SPF 15 minimum daily). Sun Screen Protects your investment. Recently, SkinMedica introduced the first Super Screen that not only protects you from UVA/UVB rays but also infrared.
My recommendation is to resist the skincare impulse buy at the drug or department store. These products generally do not stack up against the cosmeceuticals available in your physician’s office causing your commitment to wane as results are not achieved. Consult with your skin care professional and invest in a skincare regimen that will work for you and produce beautiful results.
