Your Beauty Questions Answered (BQOTD): Day Creams vs. Night Creams

Today's beauty question came from a new client who came for a facial the other day. Wanna hear it? Here it goes..


Q: What is the difference between day and night creams and is it necessary to use both?

A: Day creams are generally lighter and more suitable under makeup. Most of the day creams sold today include sunscreen. Obviously, sunscreen is not necessary in a night cream. Whether you need to use a night cream is determined by your skin type. Dry or mature skin may benefit from an intensive moisturizing cream at night.

Until next time...

Beauty Question of the Day

I'm Back! It's been a while, I know...My apologies.
Anywho, I decided to start a series of posts called "Beauty Question of the Day" where I address some of the questions I get from clients, friends and anyone else who may share my obsession.

Disclaimer: I AM NOT A DOCTOR! However, I am a licensed professional (Esthetician and Makeup Artist) with an obsession for beauty and passion for helping people fall in love with themselves. My advice is based strictly on my education and training, my skills and abilities, personal experience and the experiences of my clients.
Now that we have that out of the way, here your first BQOTD and my advice:

Q:Do I have to use skin care products from the same range/product line?

A:You don't have to use products from the same line. However, many ranges are formulated with ingredients that work together. This ensures that you are getting enough of the good ingredients and not doubling-up on those that are potentially irritating. If mixing and matching works for you, I say, go with that.

I hope you find this segment of my blog useful. TTFN.
