SKIN TYPES Based on these characteristics, there are five types of healthy skin:

normal, dry, oily, combination (both oily

and dry skin) and sensitive.

NORMAL SKIN This skin is neither too dry nor too oily. It has regular texture, no imperfections and a clean, soft appearance, and does not need special care.

SENSITIVE SKIN Sensitive skin is more prone to react, It is a fragile skin, usually accompanied by feelings of discomfort, such as heat, tightness, redness or itching. This type of skin loses its barrier (or protective) function, making it easy for microorganisms and irritant substances to enter it, and increasing the possibility of having an infection and allergic

reactions.

It

is

a

skin

and

appearance.

OILY SKIN Oily skin has a porous, humid and bright appearance. It is caused by excessive fat production by sebaceous glands, and usually determined by genetic and/or hormonal causes. It is frequent in adolescents and young people under 30 years old, and usually related with the occurrence of acne.

COMBINATION SKIN Based on its location, it presents characteristics of both dry and oily skin since the distribution of sebaceous and sweat glands is not homogeneous. The area with more oil is usually the T- zone (forehead, nose, and chin), while the skin on the cheeks is normal or dry.

DRY SKIN In many cases, dry skin is caused by external factors such as the weather, low air humidity and immersion in hot water, and it is usually temporary. Since dry skin can crack leaving it more exposed to bacteria, although in general this is not serious, it may cause other skin disorders, such as eczema, or be more prone to infections if not properly managed.

It is generally characterized by a feeling of tightness and roughness. It may also acquire an ashy gray color, with occurrence of desquamation, itching, redness and small cracks. Cracked skin is usually observed in very dry skin and presents small cracks, which, in more serious cases, may be deeper and even bleed.

The main cause is genetic predisposition, although other factors may trigger its occurrence or aggravate the condition as well, which may be environmental, allergic, related with food and even with some clothes.

SKIN CONDITIONS Rosacea The skin condition rosacea is most commonly associated with redness. However, there are four subtypes that cause other symptoms as well: Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea causes the typical redness, visible blood vessels, and flushing.

Ocular rosacea can cause red and irritated eyes, swollen eyelids, and symptoms that look like a stye.

Papulopustular rosacea causes redness, swelling, and is accompanied by breakouts that look like acne.

Phymatous rosacea causes the skin to thicken and have a bumpy texture.

Thread Veins Facial thread veins are tiny blood vessels which run close to the surface of the skin. They look like thin red or occasionally purple or blue lines. They appear when blood vessels become enlarged which cause the veins to appear broken. These are usually caused from environmental damage and you must wear SPF 30 minimum daily and be mindful their skin could be more sensitive.

Dermatitis is a general term that describes a skin irritation. Dermatitis is a common condition that has many causes and occurs in many forms. It usually involves itchy, dry skin or a rash on swollen, reddened skin. This can devlope from over use of a product.

Eczema Eczema, also called atopic dermatitis, is a common skin condition marked by itchy and inflamed patches of skin.

It’s often seen in babies and young children, appearing on the faces of infants. But eczema can come in a variety of types in children, teens, and adults.

Cold sore Red, painful, fluid-filled blister that appears near the mouth and lips. Affected area will often tingle or burn before the sore is visible.

Melanoma The most serious form of skin cancer, more common in fair-skinned people. Mole anywhere on the body that has irregularly shaped edges, asymmetrical shape, and multiple colors, or that has changed color or gotten bigger over time

Pigmentation Pigmentation refers to the coloring of the skin and cause changes to the color of your skin. Melanin is made by cells in the skin and is the pigment responsible for your skin's color.

Hyperpigmentation is a condition that causes your skin to

darken.

There are many types of pigmentation but these are the two main types -

Melasma is believed to be caused by hormonal changes and may develop during pregnancy.

Sunspots/Liver spots are related to excess sun exposure over time. Generally, they appear as spots on areas exposed to the sun, like the hands and face.

NONE INFLAMMATORY ACNE Non inflammatory acne includes blackheads and whiteheads. These normally don’t cause swelling.

Blackheads (open comedones) Blackheads occur when a pore is clogged by a combination of sebum and dead skin cells. The top of the pore stays open, despite the rest of it being clogged. This results in the characteristic are black on the surface.

Whiteheads (closed comedones) Whiteheads can also form when a pore gets clogged by sebum and dead skin cells. But unlike with blackheads, the top of the pore closes up. It looks like a small bump protruding from the skin. Whiteheads are more difficult to treat because the pores are already closed.

INFLAMMATORY ACNE Pimples that are red and swollen are referred to as inflammatory acne. Although sebum and dead skin cells contribute to inflammatory acne, bacteria can also play a role in clogging up pores. Bacteria can cause an infection deep beneath the skin’s surface. This may result in painful acne spots that are hard to get rid of.

Papules Papules occur when the walls surrounding your pores break down from severe inflammation. This results in hard, clogged pores that are tender to the touch. The skin around these pores is usually pink.

Pustules Pustules can also form when the walls around your pores break down. Unlike papules, pustules are filled with pus. These bumps come out from the skin and are usually red in color. They often have yellow or white heads on top.

Nodules Nodules occur when clogged, swollen pores endure further irritation and grow larger. Unlike pustules and papules, nodules are deeper underneath the skin.

Cysts Cysts can develop when pores are clogged by a combination of bacteria, sebum, and dead skin cells.

These large red or white bumps are often painful to the touch. Cysts are the largest form of acne, and their formation usually results from a severe infection. This type of acne is also the most likely to scar.

LAYERS OF THE SKIN Skin is the largest organ of the body and is essential to our overall health and wellbeing. Healthy skin is a vital sensory organ, regulates body temperature and fluid balance, and acts as a barrier between your body and the outside world.

Skin functions as the body’s first line of defence against bacteria and viruses, and is also a vital sensory organ, sensitive to the softest touch as well as pain.

structure and functions of the skin are vital to our overall health and well-being.

Functions - Sensations, heat regulation, absorption, protection, excretion & secretion Three main skin layers - The Epidermis, Dermis and Subcutis – each of which is made up of several sublayers. Appendages – such as the sebaceous glands, sweat glands and hair follicles – also exist within these layers, and they play various roles in the overall function of the skin.

LAYERS OF THE SKIN The

epidermis is the outermost layer of the

skin, and protects the body from the environment.

The epidermis of thick skin has five layers:

stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratum lucidum, and stratum corneum.

The

dermis or corium is a layer of skin between

the epidermis (with which it makes up the cutis) and subcutaneous tissues, that primarily consists of dense irregular connective tissue and cushions the body from stress and strain.

FACIAL BONES The bones that from the head are collectively known as the skull. This can be devided into two parts the caranium and the face.

14 facial bones for the face 8 cranial bones for the rest of the skull As well as forming our facial features the bones support other structures such as the eyes and the teeth. The cranium surrounds and protects the brain.

Bones are thin and slightly curved and are held togther by connectibve tissue

FACIAL MUSCLES The face has

42 individual muscles.

with age the facial expressions that we make every day produce lines on the skin - frown lines.

The amount of tension or tone also decreases with age.

LYMPHATIC SYSTEM The lymphatic system is a crucial part of your immune system. Through a network of hundreds of lymph nodes, it drains fluid called lymph to be transported back into your bloodstream. It also removes bodily waste and carries white blood cells that help prevent infection.

Within a facial we perform a lymphatic drainage massage, the main benefits to this are brighter skin, reduce puffiness, reduce redness, gives an overall glow to the skin and best of all its relaxing.

PRE TREATMENT It is really important we give good advise and follow a treatment plan that suits the clients. Speak to them about the below points and look at there skin to find the answers.

SKIN CONDITION SKIN TYPE SKIN TEXTURE SKIN CONCERNS ANY CONTRA INDICATIONS ANY PAST REACTIONS ON ANY MEDICATIONS TO TREAT THE SKIN WHAT SKIN CARE PRODUCTS ARE THEY USING

AFTERCARE

Avoid wearing make up for 24-48 hours after a facial Stay well hydrated Wear SPF 30 daily No swimmiNg for 7 days No exfoliation for 7 days No heat treatments such as sauna/steam for 48 hours Avoid retinols for 7 days

CLEANSING Cleansing helps remove excess oil, makeup, sweat, dirt and dead skin cells from your skin. It refreshes your skin and gives your complexion a chance to breathe. We always start a facial off with a deep cleanse, removing with warm mitts.

TONE & BLOT Toner removes any last traces of dirt, grime and impurities stuck in your pores after you cleanse the face. When added to your daily skincare routine and used regularly, it can have major positive impact on the appearance and tightness of your pores. Always blot with a tissue to remove excess moisture before moving onto your next step. Ensure you create a split in the tissue for client comfort.

EXFOLIATION The natural physical process of losing dead skin cells from the stratum corneum of the epidermis is called

DESQUAMATION .

Exfoliation is a salon or home use

technique used to accelorate this process. The skin will remove all dead skin cells leaving the skin feeling soft and smooth. When removing these dead skin cells, skin care products will penetrate much deeper into the skin.

MASK Face masks are designed to be used intermittently to give your skin an instant boost.

Depending on what your skin needs, there is a mask that can do one (or a combination) of the following: Hydrates and moisturizes dry skin Refines large pores Improves skin texture Absorbs excess oil and dirt Decongests clogged pores Minimises the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles Improves the look of breakouts

SERUM The concept with a serum is that larger amounts of active molecules will potentially penetrate the skin’s surface for optimum effectiveness. Also, due to the higher concentration, it typically takes a shorter amount of time to see visible results.

MOISTURISE Moisturising is usally the last step of a facial routine. This seals everything into the skin and acts as a layer of protection. It also leaves the skin feeling really hydrated, soft and radiant. Some moisturisers will be more light weight for a oily combination skin type and a thicker rich one is better fro dry skin. If your client struggles with pigmentation and skin damage then recommewnd to use an SPF 30 at the end of your treatment as-well.

MASSAGE TECHNIQUES To administer a complete and effective massage, one should employ five forms of hand manipulation. This style of massage should involve a rhythmic movement to the skin and tissues and as such, usually requires a massage medium that will allow enough slip to complete the massage comfortably and successfully.Each movee should be performed uniformaly with 3 repetitions.

Effleurage

These strokes improve circulation in the blood vessels near the

surface of the skin. Once you begin Effleurage, your hands must never leave the face.

Petrissage

is a compression technique, which includes kneading, squeezing

and pinching. This affects the deeper muscle tissue of the face.

Tapotement

is a percussive stroke in which the fingertips strike the skin in

rapid succession. This technique improves circulation by stimulating the diffusion of the capillary network. It helps nourish the skin. This technique also purifies the skin.

Friction

is an invigorating technique, stimulating circulation and glandular

activity. It can be performed in a circular manner or a criss-cross manner with the fingers working in opposition to each other.

Vibration

is a highly stimulating movement and should be used very

sparingly. This is a shaking movement and is performed over areas of broad muscle mass. In the facial massage this is the lower part of the face.
