Tinted Body Lotion formulated for paler skins Alabaster have launched a new body make-up for those with a naturally paler skin tone who aren’t fans of fake tans. Alabaster Tinted Body Lotion is available in two multi-tasking shades providing light-medium coverage of bruises, scars and spots. With buildable coverage so you can hide as much of your natural colour as you like, the lotion stays put with a light dusting of translucent powder.

“Bouncing lots of light off pale skin is a key cosmetic need, as it visually slims pale skin. Also, because there’s little melanin to cover flaws, pale skin can be more transparent and show veins and flaws more easily. So, creating opacity is another way to create the ideal pale skin,” say the brand. The lotion is glitter and shimmer free, but has a high gloss non-oily effect to offer a three-dimensional shine. Kind to skin, ingredients include hyaluronate, rich emollients and botanical extracts used in Chinese Medicine. The Alabaster brand has been established by Dr Esther Coats who has spent years developing expertise in the pigmentation, optics and dermatological needs of pale skin.

Noon Skincare offers exclusive DermShield™ care during peels

NOON Aesthetics paraceutical skincare line offers an extensive range of professional peels featuring high concentrations of active ingredients yet without the irritation, redness or discomfort often associated with such treatments.

This is thanks to the brand’s exclusive DermShield™ technology, which selectively suppresses burning, tingling and itching sensations, as well as erythema and oedema (swelling) of the skin, side effects normally associated with the application of acids used in chemical peels. DermShield™ technology works by supressing neurogenic inflammation, caused when a chemical peel is applied to the skin. A type C nociceptor in the skin detects the skin’s pH level, similar to nerves that detect pain. When a chemical peel is applied to the skin, a signal is sent to the type C nociceptor, the mast cells, the spine and brain. As the signal passes through blood vessels, they expand causing redness. The higher the concentration of peel applied to the skin, the more the vessels expand and swelling occurs, whilst Mast cells release histamine, the result being neurogenic inflammation. By blocking neurogenic inflammation, NOON Aesthetics DermShield™ technology prevents any tingling, burning, itching, redness and swelling, making treatments more accessible and pleasant for your clients. NOON Aesthetics products are suitable for treating ageing, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, acne and other skin concerns. NOON Skincare Educator, Katey McTavish, says: “NOON Aesthetics will give you the tools to deliver some astounding and life changing results through unique delivery and formulations of chemical peeling and homecare so you can have confidence in your treatments and reap the benefits of this amazing line. “We are excited to be at Irish Beauty with these outstanding products and have upcoming workshops throughout in 2020 to showcase what NOON Aesthetics has to offer you and your patients.”

The Lipofirm MED+ is a complete face and body platform with the power of synergized technologies for personalised treatment plans.

Technologies harnessed within the Lipofirm MED+ include Trilipo, TriPollar ®

with DMA™, TriFractional™ Radio Frequency (RF), and Voluderm.

TriFractional™ RF resurfaces and renews the skin though the wound healing process, resulting in an improvement in skin texture. Voluderm activates the body’s natural healing process by applying RF assisted thermal ultra-thin electrode ablation followed by galvanic current generating a non-thermal effect to create controlled micro wounds in the skin encouraging the generation of new and healthy skin.
