Frequently Asked Questions About Skin Care

Blackheads

I have very dry and flaky skin. And since I was a child I have had problems with black heads not on my face but on my arms and all over my legs. No matter what body scrub or soap I use combined with scrubbing they will not go away. This has made me a little shy which is not me what so ever. Along with having these red bumps I have battled with picking at them and have a few scars. I don't know what to use or how to get rid of them. Can you please give me some advice on what to do. Thank you.

 When you think about dry and flaky skin you probably think that your skin only needs moisturizing. However, quite the opposite is true.  Products that fall under the heading of Ant-Aging are also an excellent choice for dry skin no matter what your age.  I recommend a cleanser with pure essential oils and anti-oxidants.  Use a toner that does not dry the skin preferably one with Aloe Vera as its base.  Moisturize your skin using a face cream for dry skin or once again an anti-aging product.  Bren New York Cosmetics Idebenone face cream is the ideal product.

Regarding your blackheads, it sounds like you may have an issue with clogged pores. Again, washing and exfoliating can help with this too. I have listed below some of our products that I would recommend. Thank you for your questions. I hope this helps. Hope to have you visit our site again soon.
