Dear Karen I am writing to sincerely thank you for your generous support of the ninth and final Yvonne Baker Memorial Breakfast. The event this year was held on International Women’s Day – 8th March - at the Esplanade by Rydges Fremantle. We hosted over 480 guests and raised an amazing $35 819 which has been forwarded on to the Cancer Council of Western Australia. Our best ever fundraising result would not have been possible without contributions such as the products generously donated by Le Beau. The items were used in our mega-raffle which raised almost $5 000 for the Cancer Council of WA. I have attached a flyer showcasing the event. Guest feedback on what they liked best about the function included“Thanks so much for the last 9 years. You may have thought you were raising money for the Cancer Council, but you’ve done far more than that. You’ve given us all the opportunity to listen to each other, to share time, to be in the company of women who have ‘got on with it’. And we have all grown. I bet it hasn’t been easy doing all that planning, but you’ve achieved far more than you thought you had. You’ve contributed to the lives of thousands & thousands of women. And I know we all thank you.” “Congratulations on organising such a remarkable event - once again the best yet. I was remarking to my neighbour how it has progressed over the years, each year being bigger and better than the previous. I can only say your Mum would have been astounded - and very proud, of course.” “Great brekkie today. What an awesome turnout and a fabulous venue....as for Maggie Dent....I love her!!!! You and your sisters have done a fabulous job over the years and I’m sure you are thrilled to end on a high. Congratulations – you and your sisters have made a huge contribution over the years – what a lovely way to pay tribute to your mum.” On a personal note, one of the great aspects of being involved in such an event has been the opportunity to make contact each year with generous, approachable, sincere people such as yourself. Please accept my heartfelt thanks for making a difference! Thank you for playing your part in helping to make the Yvonne Baker Memorial Breakfast such a success! Warm regards Jacqui Bransby

Health Watch: A His What is Mother’s Day and why do we celebrate it on different dates around the world. Mother’s Day, or Mothering Sunday as it is known in the UK, is celebrated all over the world on different dates. In Australia it is celebrated on the second Sunday in May – this year it falls on the 14th May. But in Britain it is held on the fourth Sunday of Lent – 30th March was this years date. So where did Mother’s Day come from? Australia always seems to follow trends from around the world. And our date aligns with America. In the U.S its origins date back to the creation of Mother’s Group, whose sons had fought in the Civil War. The American date was formalised in 1914 by President Woodrow Wilson. It was chosen after a campaign by one woman, Anna Jarvis, whose own mother died in May 1907. The origin of the British date is a little more complicated. Some believe that Mothering Sunday may have originally derived from a 16th century practise of visiting the ‘mother church’ – the main church in the region – on Laetare Sunday, the fourth Sunday of Lent. Historically this was also a time when domestic servants were given time off the visit families. Modern day Mother’s Day was brought back by a 20th century British woman named Constance Smith who was inspired by the campaign Jarvis had lead in the US. In 1920 Smith published a booklet entitled ‘The revival of Mothering Sunday’ under the pseudonym C.Penswich Smith. Things snowballed from there and by 1938 “Mothering Sunday’ was celebrated in every parish in Britain and in every country of the Empire”. Cordelia Moyes says, a historian of the International Christian Charity, the Mothers Union.

Health Watch: How to care Every change of season peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s skin changes due to external and internal environments. As the humidity level drops outside and the heat kicks inside our skins need extra moisture to stay dewy, radiant and soft. It is easy to stop moisturizing and taking care of our bodies because we are covering them with jeans and jumpers- however proper care of our skin all year round can mean the difference between healthy skin and dry flakey skin, Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s look at 10 ways to keep your skin healthier through the autumn months. 1. Cleansing your face and Body In the summer fruity shower gels are popular but it is important to ensure that when the cold comes in your cleanser is nourishing enough. It should be soap free as well as hydrating, creamy face washes are helpful to keep the face soft and supple, for treats at the end of a hard week milk bath is a great way to feed your skin 2. Oil based scrubs for the body Oil base scrubs for autumn are perfect because you are getting the exfoliating benefits with the extra bonus of hydrating oils, we carry both inexpensive and more luxurious oil based scrubs, and an alternative option is to dry body brush your body before showering, When you use a good brush (bodycare) you receive a booklet of instructions to help you get the most out of your brush as it also aids in circulation and cellulite not to mention that these brushes last a life time. 3. Moisturize every single day This is a must and because it is always cooler we are always in a hurry to get our clothes on. But if you want to keep that dry skin at bay you must hydrate your skin on a daily basis. The best time to apply your creams is directly after a bath or showers this seals in the moisture that has already been absorbed by your skin. We have a huge range of body moisturizers but my personal favorite is the Thalgo intensive nutrition cream, SOS dry skin rescue with wheat germ oil, sunflower oil and rosemary leaf extract.

e for your skin this Autumn This highly concentrated relipidating active ingredients sooths dry skin, nourishes and restores moisture balance whilst softening and protecting the skin- Perfect for autumn. 4. Have your skin Re-analyzed and do a skin analysis. This should be done at every change of season as skin changes so much with the seasons and required different TLC. Watch your skin as the weather changes to see what happens for you does it become drier? Or go from oily to more normal, because of this often we need to change our skins care regime, At Le Beau all our front desk staff are all therapists to help you with any questions. 5. Organize your skin care routine If you want great skin like anything in life the only way to succeed is to ensure you do all the necessary steps and don’t cut corners…Ever! You need to be in a solid routine for example every Sunday evening I exfoliate my skin from head to toe and put on a mask- this is the way I prepare myself for the new week and finish off my weekend, this routine ensures that my skin is given what it needs every week obviously with constant cleanse, tone and moisturize daily, This I promise with constant care you will see it in your face. 6. Don’t forget sunscreen Ok this is a big one-Just because you are not lying on the beach and the sun is not shining through as much doesn’t mean you can forget your sunscreen. Sunscreen is a daily essential so don’t go sitting it aside. Your children should still be applying it every day before setting off for school or participation in outdoor activities. My personal favorite is Actinica lotion it is an 8 hour sunscreen pop it on in the morning and forget. Also the other great for the kids is a stick is the Guinot 50+ easy to use and does not get in their eyes. Mums need to remember they are in the car on average for 2 hrs a day taxing the kids and the uv light is causing damage. You will often notice sun spots appearing on the right side of the face due to the uv light

Health Watch: How to care 7. Remember your feet If you remember to take care of your feet throughout the cold months your feet will be perfect for when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to put on sandals again. We are always tempted to cover and forget in winter and then promise we wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do that again the first time we drag out the sandals. Gehwolfoot care from Germany also offers the perfect cream for those cold feet. It is a warming balm for normal skins using invigoration camphor, extracts of paprika and ginger as well as essential oils from rosemary and mountain pine to stimulate circulation and impact a pleasant feeling of warmth. Skin friendly emollients invigorate normal skin, keeping it soft bad supple. The gehwol red also has antiseptics to prevent foot odor and help to prevent infections and itching between toes.This is a must for people who suffer with cold feet-Give it a try! 8. Cuticle oil Dry cuticles in the cold is a difficult one to hide, hand cream is just not enough, investing in a good cuticle oil will prevent the splitting skin around the nail which can be painful.

e for your skin this Autumn 9. Nail Color It’s important to ensure your nail color reflects the color of fashion and the season. Deeper colors burgundy’s, plums or even a chocolate brown. We carry a great range of these in shellac and OPI colors. 10. Hand Care Indulge in a good hand cream. Your hands and feet are exposed to the harsh elements all winter, and as we would never dream of not putting a good moisturize on our face but we often don’t give the same love and care to one of the hardest working parts of our body- Our hands, They are in and out of water on a regular basis so it is a must to avoid cracked hands.

Finish the look by defining your brows with the Brow Artiste Sculpting Pencil. LIPS Let your lips take centre stage this Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day by opting for Vixen lipstick, a classic matte red.

Time to take yourself out, gorgeous!

WHAT IS MICRO-DERMABRASION? Micro-dermabrasion involves exfoliation of the skin to a greater or lesser degree, carried out by a beautician or a dermatologist, although it can also be performed at home at a lesser intensity. This deep-acting exfoliation of the face can be carried out in different ways: 1/ WITH COSMETIC PRODUCTS This treatment uses either a “resurfacing” cream that is rich in aluminium oxide or an acid complex with a high concentration and a low pH. Micro-dermabrasion combining these two methods in one session can also be performed, but only under professional supervision. 2/ WITH A MACHINE Spraying the skin with aluminium oxide using a machine gives ultra-high performance abrasive action, requiring high-quality equipment offering optimal safety.. THE THALGO RESULTS These depend on the treatment carried out: either with the “THALGOSKIN Expert” Controlled Micro-Dermabrasion Machine, or solely with the “Skin Perfecting” range of cosmetic products. It goes without saying that the method using the THALGOSKIN Expert machine in addition to the “Skin Perfecting” care gives the best results. More than merely caring for your clients’ skin, you will be able to offer them a real treatment. 1 - the skin is retextured: softer, smoother and more even 2 - the complexion is glowing with youth 3 - wrinkles and fine lines are visibly erased 4 - the skin is firmer and more toned From the very first session, the skin is “reboosted”, cellular regeneration is set in motion and superactivated. The complexion is more luminous, its dull veil is lifted and the skin is visibly smoother.

Health Watch: Vitamin D The need for sunscreen is undisputed: Adequate SPF minimizes the skin’s exposure to cancer- and wrinkle-causing UV radiation. Also important is the body’s requirement for vitamin D, as it contributes to healthier teeth and bones, reduced inflammation, and improved immune function in the skin. But is the controversy surrounding sunscreen and its role in blocking vitamin D production a valid one? As medical options for testing levels of vitamin D have become more advanced and accessible, doctors are better able to determine a patient’s vitamin D level, and frequent lower-than-average test results have put a public spotlight on vita-

min D deficiency. The resulting search for a simple, concrete explanation has led to finger-pointing at sunscreen when in fact, the answer is much more complex. First, it’s important to understand what vitamin D does and how our bodies produce it. Vitamin D’s most important contribution is to bone health, especially in adult women and children. Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to bone abnormalities such as osteomalacia in adults, and to a condition called rickets in children. In the skin, vitamin D also affects the way that keratinocytes grow and can slow the growth of abnormal skin cells in conditions like psoriasis. Vitamin D improves the skin’s immune function, in turn decreasing inflammation. Furthermore, investigations are currently underway to determine if vitamin D may reduce the formation of non-melanoma skin cancers. Vitamin D synthesis begins with two inactive precursors: D2, obtained via diet;

Deficiency and Sunscreen and D3, through sun exposure. These precursors undergo further conversion in the liver before transforming in the kidneys to the active form of vitamin D. Here’s where sunscreen comes into play: Sunscreens act by blocking UVB rays, which in turn decreases the availability of these rays to stimulate the production of the D3 precursor. Even without sunscreen, the skin’s ability to generate vitamin D precursors is actually quite limited. After 20 minutes of sun exposure to less than 10 percent of the

body surface, the skin’s ability to convert Vitamin D maxes out for the day.    While the jury is out on exactly all the reasons vitamin D levels may be below normal, we do know that sunscreens lead to a reduction in sun damage and skin cancer. Minimal exposure to UV radiation is necessary to prevent skin cancer, wrinkles and other visible signs of sun damage that occur over time, such as volume loss, sagging, and hyperpigmentation. The best sources of vitamin D can be found in the diet: fatty fish such as salmon, eggs, fortified milk and cereals. In fact, the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) recommends that sufficient levels can be obtained through supplements or a diet rich in natural or fortified sources of vitamin D. The AAD also states that unprotected UV exposure is not a safe method by which to obtain vitamin D. According to the Academy, “While UV radiation is one source of vitamin D, dermatologists argue that it is not the best source because the ben-

Health Watch: Vitamin D efits of obtaining vitamin D through UV exposure cannot be separated from an increased risk of skin cancer.” So does sunscreen block vitamin D production? Yes, but not enough to significantly impact vitamin D levels—and the benefits of wearing sunscreen far outweigh any perceived risk of inadequate vitamin D. This means that patients can sun safely—by applying broad spectrum sunscreen, minimizing or altogether avoiding sun exposure, and wearing sun-protective clothing—without concerns of vitamin D deficiency.

DermaFrac Achieving beautiful skin has never been easier, faster, more comfortable or more effective. How Does It Work? The precision controlled DermaFrac handpiece uses a vacuum to pull the skin into contact with hundreds of micro needles. The microneedles create pathways for the infusion of targeted serums by penetrating the epidermis above capillaries and nerve endings, ensuring there is no bleeding or pain. Designed to improve the overall appearance of your skin, procedures results in some pink or slightly red areas, which should fade quickly.

Health Watch: For Bette Maintaining a healthy sleep schedule can be downright, well, exhausting. According to recent statistics, 30 percent of the nation’s adults get inadequate sleep on a regular basis. Proper sleep is vital for a healthy body and mind, and for weight stability, mental health, and improved immunity. Sufficient slumber also improves the skin’s overall appearance and helps give the skin a healthy, vibrant glow. And the effects of beauty sleep aren’t just skin-deep: Healthy skin acts as an external barometer of the body’s overall health. One of the main functions of sleep is to allow the brain to rest. Much like a computer on standby mode, the brain cools down as we sleep. During the night time hours, the body’s focus shifts from basic functions, such as movement and digestion, to repair. Sleep is restorative on a global level for all organs, including the skin—and quality, uninterrupted sleep allows these reparative processes to work most efficiently. During this period, several key internal processes aid in skin renewal and repair. The shunting of blood away from muscle tissue encourages increased blood flow to the skin, which helps to transport vital nutrients to its surface while aiding in the regeneration of skin cells. And with proper sleep, blood vessels constrict,

er Skin, Start with Sleep helping to give the skin more even tone; on the contrary, after sleep deprivation, blood vessels dilate, causing redness, flushing and those persistent dark circles. Sleep is also a primary modulator of human growth hormone, which spikes within four hours of falling asleep. Growth hormone promotes collagen synthesis and contributes to the firmness and healthy appearance of the skin. In addition, getting ample sleep helps balance estrogen levels to support better moisture retention. While a good night’s sleep plays a primary role in skin repair and the renewal of collagen, sleep deprivation can wreak havoc on the body’s global hormone levels. Aptly called the “stress hormone,” cortisol is released by the adrenal glands in response to stress and is shown to increase after sleep loss. In addition to having a negative impact on the immune system—and a direct link to weight gain—high cortisol levels ramp up hypersensitivity to various toxins and allergies, and may make the skin more susceptible to rashes, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea flare-ups, and autoimmune diseases. Elevated cortisol also stimulates oil production, which can lead to an increase in acne breakouts. And while aging doesn’t occur overnight, a long-term increase

Health Watch: For Bette in cortisol can accelerate the aging process, which over time can age the skin far beyond its chronological years. In recent years, studies have illustrated the need for not only sufficient sleep, but quality sleep. A newly published clinical trial conducted at Cleveland’s University Hospitals Case Medical Center studied the connection between sleep and skin function. Researchers found that poor-quality sleepers were more susceptible to signs of intrinsic skin aging, including fine lines, uneven pigmentation and decreased elasticity, while good-quality sleepers were better able to recover from skin stressors, such as sunburn. Simply put, merely being in bed each night does not a good night’s sleep make. To sleep more soundly, start by reversing bad habits. Try to avoid the use of electronic devices immediately before bed, as they stimulate the visual cortex of the brain, preventing relaxation. A hot bath or shower before bedtime can help to relax the body while stimulating the production of growth hormone. It’s also important to choose a sleeping space wisely: A dark room encourages the release of melatonin, a powerful antioxidant that not only fights aging in the body, but also helps to promote restful sleep. An evening skin care routine need not be complicated; in fact, the most effective way to get good skin is to let the skin’s inherent repair processes do what they do best. Simple steps, like drinking water before bed and using a topical moisturizer, will help to keep the skin hydrated. The use of proven ingredients like retinol and growth factors, such as those found in SkinMedica® TNS Essential Serum®, will help rejuvenate skin. Ultimately, achieving healthy, beautiful skin comes down to consistency in lifestyle, skin care routine and yes, sleep habits. Aim for at least six to eight hours of sleep nightly to ensure that the body’s hormonal processes are at their most effective. When hormones are stable over the long-term, the skin will reflect this balance and will appear more youthful and vibrant over time.

Top Foods to Include in Your D This list includes some excellent foods to make sure you are including in your diet to promote good health and prevent disease. 1. Organic foods - foods grown without pesticides have to build up greater defences against pests and disease. When we eat those plant foods we ingest the plant’s phytochemicals that protect it and these in turn help prevent disease in our body. I buy organic foods every week from The Organic Collective (they deliver which is such a help). Previously I used to buy regular frozen berries, however the Congress on Detoxification brought me to my senses because so many pesticides are often used on berries. Organic frozen berries are THE only way to go in my opinion. Your local supermarket should stock these. I purchase mine from my local Woolies or IGA. Look online for your local organic produce provider. 2. Fibre-rich foods - think Chia seeds, pysllium husks, unprocessed grains such as brown rice, quinoa, millet, buckwheat. And, if you tolerate gluten, include whole-grain wheat, rye, barley, spelt and oat foods. Fibre found in foods such as these feeds essential bacteria in your digestive system. This in turn helps to crowd out any unhealthy bacteria and yeasts. Fresh fruit and lots of vegetables also provide great fibre, along with legumes, nuts and seeds. 3. Colourful fruit and vegetables - at Congress one speaker said we should “Eat a Rainbow a Day”. Sounds kind of daggy but I liked the image it provides (see the image on this page). Make sure you have lots of different coloured veggies and fruit on the menu each day to cover all the fabulous phytonutrients they provide. As a guide, two to three pieces of fruit and at least 4 cups vegetables per day is the goal. 4. Fish high in omega 3s - the best fish to eat are the smallest as they are the lowest in the fish food chain and therefore less affected by mercury. Choose wild-caught salmon, and sardines, mackerel and herring for the most omega 3s. The oils in these fish have antiinflammatory actions, improve the health of the body’s cell membranes, aid in neurotransmitter health improving mood, and help reduce heart disease risk.

Treatment Focus: Cellulite - the Cellulite is considered a curse â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The curse of womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; because so many suffer from the annoying orange peel skin dimples and fat deposits on the hips, bums and thighs. Cellulite is caused by muscular atrophy, this occurs when the layers of muscles becomes weak and undefined and separates from the skin making the unattractive fatty deposits visible. So the first thing you need to know is that when we treat cellulite it has nothing to do with the skin and everything to do with the muscle underneath the skin, plus you must note that the removal of cellulite has nothing to do with weight loss, that is why even the slimmest of girls can suffer from cellulite. The good news is we can reverse muscular atrophy and eliminate cellulite. No matter how old you are or no matter how much you weigh. False beliefs about cellulite! 1. Cellulite is genetic: ignore what you have heard, cellulite is not a genetic problem and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be stuck with it forever. Believing these false hoods will prevent you from taking the steps you need to get rid of your cellulite. 2. Too old to get rid of cellulite? You can get rid of cellulite no matter how old you are because cellulite is a muscle issue; you can always fix it by strengthening your muscles. With our accent treatment that target specific muscles in the cellulite affected. It is not vigorous or overly strenuous and can be used by women of off fitness levels. The treatment is unique and directly targets the muscles in the cellulite areas. It focuses on lifting, toning and shaping the muscle layers, pushing them towards the skin and help get rid of the dimpling appearance.

How the AccentXL works

Treats all ages and skin types

The AccentXL works by gradually heating the dermal and subdermal tissue to tighten and re-contour both superficially and volumetrically.

AccentXL works on all parts of the body, regardless of a patient’s age or skin type. And unlike other RF systems, the AccentXL provides effective treatment for wrinkles and rhytids with significantly less discomfort, a minimal risk of side effects and no downtime or expensive disposables. Plus, the technology is always upgradeable when new research innovations emerge.

Collagen fibers contract and multiply, which firms and improves laxity.

Connective tissue contracts to improve the skin’s contour, texture and architecture.

Circulation improves and retained fluids drain from subcutaneous adipose tissue to reduce edema, erythema and overall volume.

The Accent XL procedure The Accent XL procedure is a technique which rejuvenates aging skin in a non-invasive, radio frequency based procedure by treating two separate layers of skin in a single treatment. The technique is called “dual-layer thermotherapy,” and is effective in treating loose, sagging skin, and uneven skin texture and tone. Accent XL is also a very effective technique for the treatment of cellulite. The treatment encourages the skin’s natural development of collagen, which gives skin its firm, elastic tone. The technique requires no downtime and is non-invasive, making it a popular alternative for both men and women who do not want to commit to more complicated and extensive surgical procedures.    Who is a candidate for Accent XL?   The Accent XL procedure is an excellent option for men and women interested in firming up sagging, loose skin or reducing all degrees of cellulite buildup through a non-invasive procedure.    Which area of the body is Accent XL useful for?   Accent XL’s unique dual-layer technique is suitable for use anywhere on the body where there is loose, wrinkled, and sagging skin or cellulite. The procedure is especially popular with individuals seeking to tighten up the crepe-like skin that can occur on the underside of arms and under the neck as a result of aging or significant weight loss, and is also a popular treatment for individuals following pregnancy and weight loss surgeries, to tone and tighten stretched, loose skin.    Who is not a candidate for Accent XL?   In general, men and women who are diabetic, taking photosensitizing drugs, or who have pacemakers are not good candidates for Accent XL procedures. In addition, women who are pregnant or nursing should not undergo Accent XL.    Is the cellulite reduction from Accent XL treatments permanent?   Accent XL offers individuals long-term and often permanent results, and the cellulite which is removed by Accent XL is gone for good. This does not mean that new cellulite cannot form in time, however.    How is Accent XL performed?   The Accent XL dual-layer technique uses a special hand piece to deliver radio frequency energy to both the surface and deeper layers of the skin. Both treatments affect the production of collagen, effectively encouraging the skin to produce new collagen, which helps the skin regain some of the elasticity lost through the normal aging process. This dual-layer technique is specially designed to treat both the fine, delicate skin of the face and neck, as well as deeper, thicker skin layMediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies ers. http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 90

This deep treatment also aids in re-contouring the underlying structures of the skin. Most procedures require about 30 to 60 minutes to perform, depending upon the size of the area being treated, and are often likened to a hot stone massage.    What is recovery from the Accent XL procedure like?   With Accent XL, recovery time is minimal. Most patients say the Accent XL treatment feels like a warm stone massage, and there may be some slight redness and warmth in the area following treatment. However, patients are able to return to their regular routines immediately following treatment, which is one of the reasons the Accent XL procedure is so popular.    When will I begin to see the results from Accent XL treatments?   You should see the results of the Accent XL treatment immediately following your treatment, when the skin shows the initial evidence of tightening. Your results will continue to improve over time as your body develops new collagen, causing the skin to improve in tone and texture.    How many Accent XL sessions are needed?   The number of Accent XL sessions that are required varies based on the individual patient’s condition and the results each individual hopes to achieve through the dual-layer technique. Most patients see visible results after 1 or 2 treatments, but optimal results may require 6 to 12 treatments with the Accent XL technique. Most specialists recommend patients undergo a series of “maintenance” treatments to prolong the beneficial effects of the initial Accent XL treatment.    When can one return to work after Accent XL treatment?   Individuals can expect to return to their normal routines, including work, immediately following the Accent XL procedure.    What are advantages of Accent XL over other procedures?   There is no invasive surgery involved in the Accent XL procedure, which is relatively quick and pain-free and requires no downtime. The Accent XL also requires fewer treatments than many laser treatments.    Is Accent XL approved for use in Australia  Yes, Accent XL is approved for use in the Australia by the TGA.    Is Accent XL covered by insurance companies?   Because the Accent Xl procedure is considered a cosmetic procedure, not a medical procedure, it is covered by our medi spa insurance.    What is the cost of Accent XL?   Depending upon the area being treated, the cost of AcMediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies cent XL treatment usually ranges from $280 to $600 per treatment. http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 91

Health Watch: How and w When you look in the mirror, the last thing you want to see staring back at you are scores of tiny, black pores. Despite their tendency to clog, pores are actually very important, because they allow us to sweat. If we couldn’t sweat, we wouldn’t be able to maintain a safe body temperature. They also secrete a natural lubricant called sebum, which is supposed to moisturize and protect our skin. Sometimes, however, sebum ends up clogging our pores and giving us blackheads instead. So how do we keep that from happening? Most people think using steam or hot water to wash your face helps because it opens your pores, but in reality, that’s just a myth. Pores are nothing more than tiny openings in your skin. They don’t have muscles, and that means they can’t open or close. It doesn’t matter what you do -- there’s no way to change the size or your pores. There is a reason for some of the confusion, however. While hot water can’t actually change the size of your pores, it might help loosen all of the dark spots that are clogging up them up. The same goes for steam. It’s important to realize, though, that this has nothing to do with changing the size of your pores. It’s simply an effective way of cleaning them out, and getting rid of excess debris and makeup can actually make pores look smaller. So, if you want to make your pores less noticeable, try washing your face regularly, especially following any strenuous activities that might cause you to sweat excessively. Regular exfoliation can help as well If you’re wondering why the condition of your skin isn’t up to par, it might be time to take a look at how you’re cleansing it. A good soapy lathering, a scrub with an old washcloth and a quick towel dry are cleaning steps more suited to your car than to the delicate skin on your face. If you’ve had a skin care routine like that since preschool, then it’s probably time to rethink your approach. First of all, when it’s time to wash your face, grabbing whatever soap is close at hand is not a good idea. Not all soaps are created equal. For example, the skin on your armpits is a lot different from what’s on your face, so a deodorant soap isn’t really suitable to use above the neck. There are, however, a wide array of choices in facial cleansers. Your skin type -- whether it’s oily, dry, normal or combination -- should guide your decision on what to use. Some other issues you’ll need to consider include how sensitive your skin is and how prone you are to breakouts. For example, if you have extremely dry skin or a condition called rosacea, even a cleanser that seems innocuous, like hot water, might irritate your face. MediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 106

why we Cleanse Our Face Next, give some thought to your washcloth. You don’t necessarily need one, and you shouldn’t be using one if you have sensitive skin. It has the potential to irritate your skin and could even make you more prone to breakouts. Water temperature is also an important consideration -- certain temperatures are kinder to your skin than others. There’s even an art to drying your face, as you’ll discover in the pages ahead. There’s more to a good face-washing routine than you might think. Read on to discover the steps that will help foster a lovely façade.

Preparing to Wash Your Face Before you begin, assemble what you need, and get your hair off your face with a headband, barrette or clip if necessary. The next step is important -- wash your hands. You come into contact with germs, dirt, oils and other substances during the day that you don’t want to transfer to your face. For most people, a twice-daily washing -morning and night -- is sufficient. However, if your face is extremely oily, you’ll probably feel better if you wash again during the afternoon. This can be a hassle if you wear makeup, but as you’ve no doubt discovered, you’ll look better with that extra wash. Also, if you work out or sweat for some other reason during the day, you will want to gently wash afterwards. Resist the urge to use a towel to rub your face free of sweat. When searching for the perfect facial cleanser, take into account your skin type. Sensitive skin requires fragrance-free cleansers that are specially formulated to be gentle. Those with acne-prone skin should also use a gentle cleanser so as to not irritate the skin further. The water you use can also make or break your skin care routine. Read on to learn why water temperature is so important.

MediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 107

Health Watch: How and w Face Washing Water Temperature For the best results, use warm, not hot, water to wash your face. Hot water might dry your skin too much. After cleansing, use cool water as a final rinse to close your pores. Along with warm water, use products that are meant for your face, not your body. Also look for cleansers that are formulated for your specific skin type. For example, if you’re prone to acne, there are a wide array of gentle cleansers and antiseptic washes available. Skin is slightly acidic, with a pH around 5.5, and the cleanser you use should have a similar pH. Soap, which is alkaline (the other end of the pH spectrum), can sometimes irritate the skin. Soap-free cleansers, on the other hand, such as beauty bars, mild cleansing bars and sensitive-skin bars will have a lower pH and are a good choice, if your skin isn’t terribly oily. A dermatologist may recommend that you use a wax- and oil-free cleanser for very dry or sensitive skin. Some ingredients that might be in this type of cleanser are glycerin, cetyl or stearyl alcohol, sulfate or sodium laurel. Another option for extremely dry or sensitive skin is a cleansing cream, which both removes makeup and cleans the face. A scrub both cleans and exfoliates (removes dead skin). Scrubs can be too harsh for many people, but there are gentler versions available. Some of the more abrasive scrubs contain ingredients such as ground fruit pits. The alternative is a gentler scrub made of polyethylene beads or sodium tetraborate decahydrate granules -- these options might work for people who can tolerate some exfoliation. Avoid facial products containing fragrances -- they are a leading cause of irritation from skin products. Fragrances are a common ingredient in body cleansers and just another reason to use a product specifically designed for the face.

Face Washing Methods Just a dollop of cleanser -- abut the size of a nickel in your palm -- should be enough to clean your face well. Beyond water and your cleanser, all you really need to wash your face are your fingers or perhaps a washcloth. If your skin is dry or sensitive, skip the washcloth. As always, no matter what you use, a light touch is best so as not to irritate skin. Use gentle circular motions when washing. Never scrub your face. It may be tempting, especially if you have acne, but scrubbing can backfire and create more problems than it solves. Your eyes deserve special care. The eye lids have the most sensitive skin of any place on your body, so it’s important to be extra gentle when washing around your eyes. Many easy-to-use and mild

why we Cleanse Our Face eye-makeup removers are available. For simplicity, use products that can be removed with water. Waterproof makeup is much harder to remove, and may require you to use too much force when you’re trying to get it off. If you’d like to use more than your fingers, a washcloth is all you really need to exfoliate your skin. Products specifically designed for facial cleansing are an option as well. Woven mesh products exfoliate, and some come with a mild cleanser. Disposable facecloths are usually dry but lather up when wet. An open-weave cloth will be gentler on skin than a more tightly woven cloth. Read on to find out how to finish up your daily face-washing routine.

Drying Your Face Gentle is the word that you should use to sum up the entire process of washing your face. And like every other step of the face-washing process, drying needs to be done with a light hand as well. Pat your face; don’t rub it. Also use a clean towel so that you’re not putting bacteria or dirt back onto your newly cleaned face. After you have dried your face, don’t rush to perform the next step. If you use a topical face medication, wait several minutes. Your skin is at its most absorbent after you wash, and applying a medication too soon can be irritating. Applying medication too soon can irritate skin and help perpetuate a cycle of further breakouts. Waiting five to 15 minutes should do the trick. What you put on your face after you have gently dried it can greatly affect your skin’s overall health. Fragrances and preservatives in products are what usually cause allergic reactions. If you have a reaction to something in your facial care regimen, one or more of the following might be the culprit: • • • • • •

Paraben Imidazolidinyl urea Quaternium-15 DMDM hydantoin Phenoxyethanol methylchloroisothiazolinone Formaldehyde

As you can see, proper face washing involves a bit more than soaping up your face in the shower. With the proper tools, the right cleanser and the most conscientious drying

technique, your face will look and feel its best

NEW THALGO TRAVEL KITS

What’s New: Thalgo Source Marine

Treatment Focus: Introducing th More than any other part of our body, our faces project who we are. Our nature is reflected in our expressions, our thoughts are mirrored in our eyes and our wellbeing is reflected in the glow of our skin. Age and environmental stress can blur the edges a bit and our faces no longer represent us as we see ourselves. More men and women are choosing to give nature a helping hand when it comes to projecting our inner self to the outside world. PCA Oxygenating Trio The skins best defense against environmental stress and oxidative damage, this antioxidant therapy works to prevent the most significant contributors to the aging process from wreaking havoc on the skin. The PCA Oxygenating Trio treatment helps stimulate cutaneous oxygenating and circulation, rejuvenating sluggish, stressed skin as it draws oxygen to the skins surface resulting in radiant healthy skin. The key ingredients in this treatment are : • Superoxide Dismutase is an enzyme that supports antioxidant defence. • Fumaric Acid is an antioxidant • Niacinamide is a form of the B Vitamin, niacin (vitamin B3), that hydrates and promotes a clear complexion. It does not cause the flushing response common with niacin • Hydrolyzed Candida Saitoana Extract is a type of fungi that encourages skin detoxification • Hydrogen Peroxide is a topical oxygen source effective in purifying the skin • Lactic Acid is an alpha hydroxyl acid (AHA) naturally found in milk and sugars. It is part of the skins natural moisturising factor (NMF) and moisturises the skin • Glycolic Acid is an alpha hydroxyl acid (AHA) that is excellent for oily skin types

he Dr Aspect Cosmesudical Peels â&#x20AC;˘ Salicylic Acid is a calming lipophilic beta hydroxyl acid (BHA) that helps promote a clear complexion. Aspect Retinol Brulee Anabolic Resurfacing Treatment $140 per / treatment or $450 per / program. This medical strength anabolic skin resurfacing treatment focuses on treating fine lines, wrinkles, dull, rough and lack-lustre skin texture, visible pores and minor skin discolouration. An active combination of ultra pure encapsulated retinol and lactic acid work rapidly and effectively in renewing and refining your skin from the dermal layer. Retinol stimulates the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid in the deeper layers, thereby restoring density and plumping up the skin from underneath. Lactic acid gently exfoliates the outer layers and encourages cell turnover. Anti-aging and skin renewing results are noticeable in record time. This peel is recommended every 4 weeks. Your skin must be prepared for at least two weeks prior to the 1st treatment with the Dr Aspect Starter Pack to avoid adverse side effects, such as blanching. The Complete Pigment Serum is also very important to prevent post inflammatory hyper pigmentation.

Health Watch: Horm Skin conditions are stimulated by a combination of genetic, intrinsic and extrinsic factors. One of the major intrinsic influences that can affect pigmentation, sebum production, dehydration, and hair loss and hair growth is hormones. It seems like every time we turn our hormones are responsible, they are the vein of every woman’s life in some shape or form. ‘A hormone may be defined as a chemical messenger or signaling molecule that is produced by a gland and the transported to its target destination. These chemical substances possess many guises including (but not limited) growth factors, amino acids, peptides, proteins and steroids. The communication role and messages of hormones are just varied (depending on what signal is sent and where it’s sent to) with messages regulating the metabolism of energy, growth and development , mood, reproduction/sex drive and sleep to list a few. Hormones also fuel melanogensis, regulate oil production, balance the body’s water reservoirs, create baldness and also stimulate terminal hair growth. In this article I want to investigate some of the major glands and the effects they cause on the skin and what life style factors that can stimulate or effect,hormone production.

MediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 120

monal skin condition Simply hormones are produced by a gland 1. All glands are organs but not all organs are glands 2. You can divide glands into 2 categories, Endocrine and Exocrine 3. Endocrine glands can produce hormones that are released directly into the circulatory system and the blood then takes the chemical to where it needs to go. Some of the common endocrine glands you may have heard of before are Thymus, pituitary and thyroid 4. Exocrine glands release hormones directly in the duct. These are sweat (apocrine) sebaceous (holocrine) and mucous (mercocrine/eccrine) The hormone that mostly affects our skin is the pituitary gland. This gland is found at the base of the brain. The glad is very small only the size of a peanut and protrudes from the hypothalamus is a component of the brain. Its main function is to link up the nervous system to the endocrine system (gland system) through the pituitary gland The pituitary gland is responsible for the direct release of the skin’s relevant hormones, these being • Human growth hormones (HGH) this stimulates body growth development, cellular reproduction and development • Melanin stimulating hormones (MSH) activates the melanogenesis process in the skin and hair giving pigment and color- This can also affect appetite and sexual arousal • Anti Diuretic Hormone (ADH) this regulates water retention in the body by increasing water re-absorption via the kidneys this can also affect social behavior and sexual motivation

Health Watch: Horm This gland is also responsible for the release of the other hormones that’s indirectly affect skin function including thyroid stimulating hormones (TSH) sex hormones, happy hormones, pain relief hormones and food metabolism hormones. The second most important gland is the sex gland (adrenal) for affects on the skin both directly and indirectly affecting function, behavior and quality. This gland is located above the top of the kidneys. The right gland is a triangular shape and the left gland is round. This gland is primarily responsible for producing stress hormones (eg cortisol and adrenaline) these chemicals are responsible for our ‘gut feeling’ flight or fright mode. Adrenal glands also produce estrogen, precursors (male sex hormones) ie testosterone The adrenal glands, testicles and ovaries are responsible for direct release of skin relevant hormones including • Testosterone: Stimulates hair growth and enlargement of sebaceous glands which can secrete more sebum • Dihydrotesterone and adrenal glands - This glad is responsible for male patterned baldness, this is more powerful than testosterone it also can over stimulate sebaceous glands. As the pituitary and adrenal glands contribute to mood, sex, stress, pain relief, food metabolism and sleep harmony any meditation, supplement, recreational drug and food source that directly or indirectly affects, corrects or influences gland and hormone function or production can create problems with hair and skin.

Treatment Focus: Get your skin care r It is difficult to predict how your skin will respond to aging. Many people look at their mums and dad and assume they will look the same, My mum at 63 does not have many deep wrinkles, so instead of hoping for this trait, I went and got my DNA tested to see if science could give me any clues about how my skin would age. Sound extreme? It is now going to be the norm as it is the only true way to scientifically determine and recommend skin care treatments and products to our clients; it takes the guess work out of the equation and wrong diagnosis made. DNA testing helps people spend their skin care dollars in a more purposeful way. It does not matter how expensive a product is, if it does not work for you-it’s a waste of money. To start the process you come into the spa where we take the DNA sample by swabbing the skin cells in your mouth, 7 times with a special Q tip on the inside of your cheek we pack it in the included box and ship it off to the lab. Scientists can study the DNA from any cell of the body but cheek cells are the easiest to get because they happen to slough off easier. The lab then specifically looks at sections of your DNA called nuclecticle polymorphisms or SNP’s (pronounced snips) The SNP’s found in your DNA are what make your DNA unique to you. The analyses look at five different SNP’S collagen formation factor. Based on your genetics you’re given a diagnosis of high, medium or low risk in each category, from these suggestions to topical skin care and oral supplementation to address specific genetics need of your skin. We can then identify if you are a high risk of sun protection factor, collagen formation factor, firmness and elasticity inflammation control facto and free radical damage So what does it mean if you are high risk of sun protection factor-this in Australia is extremely important to know this would mean that one would be radical damage which will show up as pigmentation-dark spots, fine lines and bad texture? Glycation protection-This could be described as sugar ‘caramelizing’ the collagen and MediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 128

routine determined on you DNA test. elastin in your skin. It’s the process whereby sugar glomes onto protein and lipid cells and produces a molecule called an advanced glycation end product (age) These AGE’s age you pretty quickly, causing heavy wrinkles and folds, sagging skin, and uneven texture. Ps give up the sugar! Antioxidant protection factor-this can lead to dull skin, rough textures and acne. Most clinics, spas, and medispa’s are not offering this service yet as it is new to Australia in the states they have been using this process for 2 years now. This process is going to become extremely popular over the next few years as clients are going to demand it to avoid wrong diagnosis from therapists which productively leads to people wasting their money. Once people know their genetics disposition they can go away and choose products/services based on their individual SNP’s, instead of focusing on just what you want you can actually prevent future issues. What your genetics give you is a road map then you can say “I like or don’t like’ that destination. That’s where skin care products and supplements become very purposeful on terms of changing the outcome. The cost of a DNA test is $250 this includes the appointment and test, the lab cost and a 5 page report of the finding and the consultation and program outline with a therapist, this follow up is 7 days after the test outlining the outcomes and the treatment and product plan specifically for you!

We are very excited about being able to offer this service to our clients as now we will be able to do so much more-just for you! And get it 99% correct guaranteed MediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 129

Health Watch - Common Question Why should I use anti ageing Products?? Anti-Ageing products The anti-ageing category covers a broad range of conditions such as pigmentation, lines, loss of firmness and dull skin so it is most important to find out what you have noticed about your skin and what are your expectations from their treatment products. Once the priorities have been established your therapist can tailor the most appropriate solution with consideration to the age and skin type of the client. A quote from a Lisa our spa manager on why “AA products are useful to use even for younger age groups (eg 25 years +) Collagen is the most abundant component of the human body. It is naturally present in the connective tissue and makes the dermis resistant, supple and elastic. Its impairment is one of the factors responsible for skin ageing. From the age of 25 reduction in collagen synthesis occurs at the rate of about 1% per year. Eg Useful to start using AA products when you notice the first signs of ageing (eg fine lines). AA products can also be used across different age groups”

What is Hypo-Alergenic A quote from a Jo one of our spa therapist and co-odinator on What is the difference between hypo-alergenic and sensitive?. What does it mean, and what products are available in Thalgo?. “I know Thalgo have their sensitive range AA sensitive skin care Sensitive skin is not a skin type, it is an occasional or permanent condition characterised by visible and often intense reactions such as

MediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 136

ns asked by our clients: inflammation. The causes, state and degree of sensitivity vary according to each individual. Any skin type may be sensitive and each shows its sensitivity in a different way. Even though advanced research is being carried out on sensitive skin, the causes of sensitivity remain many and varied. Nowadays, allergic reactions are increasing and we can see an increase in intolerance to cosmetic and daily hygiene products. It appears that these reactions are a result of over exposure to numerous harmful elements. Pollution, sun, UV rays, wind, cold, strong or unsuitable products are also capable of weakening even the most resistant skins. The more sensitive the skin is, the lower its tolerance threshold and allergic reactions may occur to even the slightest harmful element. Hypoallergenic and sensitive skin products such as Thalgoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bio Sensitive line are formulated to decrease the tendency to provoke an allergic reaction and to increase the skins tolerance.â&#x20AC;?

Health Watch - Common Question How can you help me with my Acne and problem skin?? Le Beau Day Spa team leader Stef said with acne it was important to establish why it was occurring. “Different types of acne needed to be treated in different ways,” she said. She said peel treatments were a fantastic treatment for cystic acne and microdermabrasion great for congestion and the all new guinot hydra clean Ms Skewes said Le Beau stocked a range called Aspect which produced a serum called Exfol L 15, which used alpha hydroxy acids to accelerating the skins natural cell renewal cycle. “This is for superior skin resurfacing without the trauma,” she said. “We would recommend anyone with acne to use this product for two weeks before beginning any in-salon treatments to improve results and reduce the number of in-salon treatments required.”

What can I do about my DARK CIRCLES? Louise one of Le Beau’s Head therapist had this to say.” With a new baby this is something I know all to well . Most people think Getting plenty of sleep, but then still cannot get rid of those dark circles? Acupuncture is thousands of years old but still fits perfectly into modern lifestyles. West people commonly associate dark circles with tiredness, while in Chinese medicine dark circles are usually seen as a result of poor circulation in the area and usually an imbalance in the Qi, or energy, of the kidneys. “When we treat dark circles the aim is to promote blood circulation and drainage to the area while strengthening the kidney yin energy and clearing out blood stagnation through the use of body points. Lyphatic drainage and a good detox is what is in order With the aid of the infra red detox box(

MediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 138

ns asked by our clients: infra red sauna) this is not like your traditional sauna it is a dry heat that works internally not just external as does the traditional sauna. In salon we also sell , from the New thalgo nutritional range supplements to help with detoxing and drainage.”

I hate my CELLULITE!!! Nerea said Le Beau used one of the latest pieces of equipment in the treatment of cellulite, skin firming and toning the Accent radio frequency. The results are amazing to see if this treatment is for you call up and organise your free consultation. A cheaper alternative although good but slower in results is the Guinot techni spa This combines a vacuum and compression treatment whereby the skin is gently pulled and pushed,” she said. “As a result of this manipulation the tissue forces toxins out. This improves the texture of the skin and benefits elasticity. At the same time the blood circulation is stimulated which promotes the transport of fatty acids from low blood pressure regions.” Nerea also recommended body wraps from Thalgo to target cellulite, with the latest being the Chrono Draining Marine treatment. “This treatment is performed in the award-winning, state-of-the-art Hydrotone Steam Capsule. Thalgo uses algae, which is universally used for detoxifying. What sets them apart is the latest algae they have discovered.” FINE LINES & WRINKLES According to Donna, many of today’s treatments for prematurely ageing skin incorporated professional-strength skin exfoliation, using ingredients such

MediSpa | Beauty Essentials | Spa Packages | Facial & Body Therapies http://www.day-spa-perth.com.au/ Page 139

Health Watch - Common Question as hydroxy acids, Vitamin A or retinol and peptides and had great hydrating, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and brightening properties. “Many treatments focused on premature ageing use electrical machinery such as ultra sound, micro current, galvanic and IPL/light therapy,” she said. “The therapist will explain to you which piece they have chosen for you and why. The

majority work on the principle of stimulating collagen, improving the muscle base of the skin and improving the texture.” Donna said skin therapists also now had an array of facial massage techniques at their disposal, incorporating movements to help energise the skin, stimulate blood circulation and improve the facial muscles. “They can work on relieving the fine lines often brought on by our stressful lives,” she said.

How can I stop feel so blotted? BLOATING Feeling a little Buddha-like in the belly department after a winter of a little too much comfort food? Slim biotic by thalgo may help. Farnoosh one of Le Beaus long term and head therapists said bloating was usually caused by gas trapped in the colon caused by a lack of enzymes, incorrect food choices and incomplete digestion, and said we need to helped to flush out the waste matter to reduce bloating. “You will feel refreshed and energised after as the toxic gases and old faecal matter have been flushed out and the body hydrated with the introduction of water into the

The Slim biotic helps you feel lighter all day long thanks to the combination of two active probiotic bacterial strains, prebiotic fibres and Lithothamne seaweed. They act in synergy, maintaining intestinal flora balance and contributing to digestive comfort and the flat stomach effect.

Slimbiotic Tea Have you ever suffered from a bloated stomach? If the answer is yes, then Slimbiotic is the product for you. This new installation to our growing Thalgo Nutrition range in Australia is designed to provide comfort to the stomach, preventing abdominal bloating by balancing internal flora. Now if you thought flora was something you’d find in your garden bed, think again. Our body is home to 100,000 billion bacteria (sounds gross doesn’t it)otherwise known as internal flora. This bacterial ecosystem is needed to help us digest food into micro-nutrients used to fuel the body, produce vital vitamins we need for good health and plays a super important role in immunity. The good news is that we have good bacteria inside our bodies but we also have bad bacteria in there, just hanging out for the right conditions to throw a party! When the balance between the good guys and the bad guys gets a little out of whack (think one too many reds with dinner; a packet of Tim-Tams in one sitting, KFC and cold pizza for breakfast or even a course of antibiotics from your doctor) the WHOLE body is affected. Slimbiotic is a bad bacteria kickin’ super hero packed with 5 BILLION probiotics that helps bring the balance back by decreasing the badies and increasing the goodies. PLUS it contains prebiotics to selectively increase the bacteria we want hanging out in our large intestine. AND we wouldn’t be Thalgo if we didn’t we didn’t add a little Algae to the cocktail. The algae chosen acts as an Antacid that helps fight pesky reflux issues. All in all Slimbiotic is one of those cult like products Thalgo devotees will love, after-all who doesn’t want a flatter stomach?
