WHAT’S TRENDING
PROTECTION IN SUMMER SUN GLYMED PLUS OIL-FREE PROTECTIVE MOISTURIZER SPF stands for “sun protection factor” and is the way we determine how many minutes a person can stay in the sun before they become sunburned. We often are confused by SPF,

believing that it is blocking all of the UVA and UVB rays indefinitely, when in reality it is just lengthening the amount of time a person can be in the sun before the skin becomes red or sunburned. If a person can normally stay in the sun for 10 minutes before they get sunburned, an SPF of 15 will allow that person to remain in the sun for 15 times longer, or 150 minutes. It is also easy to misunderstand that an SPF 30 does not have double the protection of an SPF 15. An SPF 15 blocks about 93% of UV rays and an SPF 30 blocks about 97%, which is not a huge difference. You can get about the same amount of protection with an SPF 15 that you would with an SPF 30 if you are vigilant about reapplication. Choose a sunscreen that you love, and will actually use because it will need to be reapplied about every 2 hours to maintain protection. Who doesn’t
Choose a sunscreen that you love, and will actually use want a double duty product that is cost effective and from a professional skin care line? GlyMed Plus also offers an Oil-Free Protective Moisturizer SPF 15 that is perfect for men or anyone who may want a more matte finish, while still containing antioxidants and broad spectrum protection. I urge you to use sunscreen daily, reapply often, and remind all those close to you to do the same. We want you to enjoy the sun, just be safe doing it!
THE BODY SERENE DAY SPA PRODUCT: CBD FACE KARMA ANTi-Aging Moisturizer exploding in the wellness sector. So where does it come from? Hemp has been hailed as the little plant that could for centuries – for making fabric, rope, sails, paper and canvas. Hemp plants require less chemical spraying than cotton, soy, corn and wheat. It can help reduce soil degradation by faring better with less water and in drier climates. Paper made from hemp could help reduce deforestation, and requires fewer chemicals for processing than wood pulp. Hemp fabric has antibacterial qualities that can help it fight staph infections in hospitals. A superior everyday anti-aging product made to target skin damage, reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve the skin’s natural equilibrium or balance. Use as liberally as needed given your individual skin type. Give special attention to the eyes and wrinkle lines of the face for best results. Our staff is so excited to present the CBD category to our spa offerings, on our service menu, and in our retail shops. This new product, that comes from enhanced hemp extract, is
That’s not all. Hemp seeds and oils offer more and better proteins than soy, along with the highest percentage of essential fatty acids and the lowest percentage of saturated fats compared with other oils. The cannabinoids (CBD) in hemp can reduce inflammation and may even protect against anxiety and depression, seizures and brain injuries, according to recent studies. (Courtesy of The Guardian) Many in the medical and wellness industries have begun seeing the
amazing positive benefits of hemp extract in battling chronic pain, and relieving inflammation. This safe and natural ingredient – going by the unassuming acronym CBD – has been delivering results for our clients. We invite you to experience our CBD Massage or Facial service.
