MANILA, Philippines - Why do women usually apply cosmetics? Unless it’s for an evening affair, it’s usually to even out skin tone, mimic rosy cheeks and give the skin a healthy glow. In fact, the “no-makeup look” is considered a method. Women envy J.Lo’s virtually flawless finish, and will bask under the sun to get Jessica Alba’s surfer-girl skin tone. What do they have in common? Gorgeous skin sans Photoshop.
Young Skin = Beautiful skin
Babies have extremely soft skin. Children have no blemishes. Then later, puberty kicks in, introducing acne and oily skin and pores, pores, pores! These lessen during your twenties, but skin gets evidently duller (and makeup becomes more of a necessity). Thirties come almost unsuspectingly, bringing with it the first few wrinkles and age spots. You pretty much have an idea that things can go downhill from there — that is, if you don’t take care of your skin.
Prevention is better than cure, unless it’s too late
While it’s best to start young, you can only do so much to delay your skin’s aging process. Luckily, there are solutions available everywhere. But if you’re not careful, you’re going to end up looking more like a stiff, over-aged Barbie doll instead of a fresh and youthful 40-something.
The facial care centre advantage
With 30 years of experience in beauty, the pioneer in premium skincare technology, Facial Care Centre, prides itself on its edge over other beauty centers: the “all non-surgical, all non-invasive” advantage. Facial Care president George T. Siy says, “We want women to still look as naturally beautiful as possible, because there are little things you want to preserve, nuances that make you who you are, like the way you smile or the way your eyes move when you’re happy. Botox can change that. A surgical facelift can change that. What we offer here at Facial Care is an option for women to look younger and look their best for their age, not an obvious alteration that people will notice.”
Facial Care’s in-house dermatologist, Dr. Shyla Valdez, agrees: “Too much tightening can make your face appear stiff and expressionless. Our non-surgical machine treatments target the areas on your skin and treat them with great precision. We have several great alternatives to Botox and surgery here that amaze our clients. Treatments can take as short as 30 minutes, with no downtime. So they’re excellent options for women on the go.”
With all these great options, how can you go wrong? In celebration of their 30 years in the industry this October, Facial Care Centre is offering several discounts and promos on their treatments.
