What are Cosmeceuticals?
If you want to go beyond pampering and really see a difference in the appearance of your skin, then Cosmeceuticals are the way forward.
Cosmeceuticals are skin treatments that give visible results and provide added benefits that go far beyond other types of skincare products.
The word “Cosmeceutical” entered the general vocabulary in the 1990’s.
Derived from a combination of the words “cosmetics” and “pharmaceuticals”, the word describes a non –prescription product for cosmetic use containing high grade ingredients into your skin offering dramatic results.
These professional grade products have been scientifically researched and tested to ensure they do actually have an effect on the skin.
Cosmeceuticals are a step on from your daily cleanse, tone and moisturise routine, they address skin concerns at a deeper level and protect your skin from external forces, such as the sun and pollution, which can cause premature ageing.
High street cosmetics selling anti-ageing products containing antioxidants, peptides and retinol, do not contain a high enough percentage of these active ingredients to make any real difference to the skin…..also, they are often full of chemicals which can irritate the skin.
Here at The Ivy Health & Beauty Clinic in Teddington, we stock a fantastic range of products by “Skinceuticals”.
Used regularly, and with the right guidance of our highly trained Beauty and Skin Therapist, Katrina, you will be amazed at the results!
