DoshaCare Sunscreen SPF 28

spf2

We now have the new, improved DoshaCare Suncreen SPF 28 in stock!  This vegan sunscreen is greaseless and contains microsponges to absorb oil, helping you to avoid shine.  Sunscreen should be used year-round.  Just walking to and from your car on a daily basis exposes you to the sun’s damaging rays.  Sun damage is the number one cause of premature skin aging, skin inflammation, and most importantly, skin cancer.  Want to avoid lines, wrinkles and sagging skin? Daily use of a sunscreen is your first line of defense.

As with all DoshaCare products, 98% of the ingredients are derived from botanical resources, and most are organic and wild-craft harvested.

Below are a few of the ingredients and the benefits they provide for your skin.

Micronized Zinc Oxide - a physical barrier mineral sunscreen used to block UVA/UVB ultraviolet rays

Jojoba - a non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic oil useful in preparations for acne prone skin due to it’s anti-inflammatory nature, similar to the natural sebum produced by the skin making it a nourishing ingredient for dry skint types, as well

Shea Butter - a soothing botanical butter from the nut of the Karite tree, packed with vitamins A and E, also contains cinnamic acid, which helps protect the skin from damaging ultraviolet rays, wonderful for aiding in the treatment of eczema

Neem -  known as the wonder tree of India, antiseptic/astringent, used in ayurveda to treat tiredness

Turmeric – contains antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, corrects hyper-pigmentation and softens the skin

Sandalwood - extracted from the root of the sandalwood tree, calming anti-inflammatory

Aloe Vera - gel consisting of 96% water as well as vitamins A, B, C, E, calcium, amino acids for protein building, and enzymes

We’re happy to help you customize a skincare regimen for your skin’s needs.  Each facial begins with a consultation and ends with a recommendation of products and techniques to help keep your skin healthy and beautiful throughout the seasons.

Engaging the senses

engaging the senses

Are you acquainted with the Hot Stone Facial?  It’s a deeply relaxing experience.  Warmed basalt river rocks are used to enhance the absorption of aromatic essential oils and diffuse soothing heat into the muscles of the face, neck, and shoulders.  A hot stone facial combines the benefits of a customized cleansing protocol with the lymphatic stimulation of the warm stone massage.  The benefits are profound tranquility and gorgeous, glowing skin.  It’s our holistic approach to beauty.  We understand that it’s more than a pretty face or the perfect coif.  When you feel grounded and relaxed, beauty radiates from the inside out. And who doesn’t want that?

Give it a try.  Let the world go for a moment and let us help you find that flow.

Summer Skin

Not only does my hair have a tendency to become a frizz-bomb during the summer (thank goodness for Davines products!!) but my skin also thinks it’s time shine like the top of the Chrysler building!

DoshaCare skin products to the rescue!  Many of us are using prescription exfoliants year-round or have occasional peels to help decongest our skin.  Even with excess oil in the pores, the skin can become irritated, red, and more sensitive to the harsh sun.  DoshaCare products are designed for customization, whether you’re oily, yet dehydrated or sensitive and congested.  For example your skin may be oilier and more congested with break-outs in the summer due to heat, humidity, and perspiration but typically you consider yourself to be a “sensitive” skin type with dryness in the winter.  We can design a DoshaCare regimen that is perfect for what you’re experiencing right now, addressing each issue.

During our facials we can discuss your skin concerns and design the appropriate system for you.  I recommend the Revitalizing Facial if you have never experienced a facial or have not received one in over six months.
