Quench Essential Skincare

Hi friends! Yes, I have been sleeping on my product highlights, yes, serums are 15% off this month (they probably will be next month too since I have been slacking on my social media stuff)
BUT I have been busy taking care of myself. As an Esthetician part of my job is pointing out any skin abnormalities that concern me and bringing them to your attention. I've done this many times and in only 4 years I have had 3 clients come back thanking me because their dermatologist said it was precancerous or post biopsy said it was indeed cancerous. This is NOT me shaming anyone, because I laid in the tanning beds too. Last week I had surgery to have a nice chunk of skin taken off because a biopsy came back "severely atypical". Please get checked regularly and if your Esthetician is concerned, follow up ASAP with your derm.

It's the last week to save 15% off all full size toners!

Due to a reschedule I have a gap to fill! Message for booking!

The last toner to highlight is Color Up Therapeutics Mist. This stuff is wonderful! It provides balancing moisture with a truly beneficial essential oil blend that smells amazing. Of course it's got organic h**p CBD for antioxidation and anti-inflammatory benefits, but also cucumber and summer lilac to protect, soothe, and heal. The primary essential oils are rose, neroli, geranium, frankincense and lavender providing all natural anti-aging benefits.
Color Up is also an oncology safe line so this is ideal for highly sensitive skin or those going through various medical treatments or even just those of us trying to take a more all natural approach to skincare. Unfortunately there are no samples/travel sizes available, but I can always use it in-treatment, and I have one retail size bottle on hand for purchase. It will be 15% off this month and I would love to get you started on your journey to healthy, balanced skin! Message for available appointments 😊

The next toner to highlight is another double duty, exfoliator and toner! P Clarifying Toner Pads from Skin Script, much like the Glycolic Retinol Pads, these can be cut in half so that you can get 100 uses rather than 50 out of the container. These are ideal for oily skin and people struggling with acne, to use after cleansing two to three times a week.
Here are the primary ingredients and how they help clarify the skin:

-- Tea Tree Oil -- gently reduces oil production without stripping the skin, and has awesome antiseptic properties to reduce the spread of bacteria that encourages acne.

-- Glycolic Acid (2%) -- alpha hydroxy acid that penetrates deep to promote resurfacing and cellular renewal, which aids in healing acne.

-- Salicylic Acid (2%) -- beta hydroxy acid that dissolves impacted oil that causes blackheads. Reduces inflammation and redness while providing exfoliation.

All toners are still 15% off for the remainder of the month. Samples are available and full size is kept in stock

Our next product to highlight is the Glycolic and Retinol Pads. If you've been paying attention, you will notice that they were also featured last month when going through exfoliation products, but they really pull double duty as a specialized toner pad too! These pads are amazing for all skin types and complexions to help resurface, minimizing fine lines and wrinkles and acne scarring, and an absolute must when addressing hyperpigmentation!

One of my favorite aspects of this product is that the pads can be cut in half, allowing you to get 100 uses rather than 50, and usage is determined by skin goals. For general exfoliation purposes they would be used at night 2-3 times a week, but if preparing for a peel series or to lighten up targeted hyperpigmentation (sunspots or melasma) they can be used up to twice a day. They are 15% off this month, so send a message to set up an appointment! Samples are also available 😉

The next toner is the Mint Refining Toner from Skin Script. This is a light, refreshing spritzing toner that helps restore your skin’s pH and balance oil production, without over drying. It also has refining properties that help minimize large pores. Let’s take a look at some of it’s active ingredients:

Lemongrass - natural astringent that tones and smoothes skin

Witch Hazel - antioxidant and astringent, helps soothe irritations

Algae Extract - normalizes moisture balance to help maintain supple texture

Peppermint oil - provides refreshing scent and feel, with natural antiseptic and antibacterial properties.

This toner is ideal for oilier skin types and those struggling with blemishes, and is great for teenagers just starting out with a skincare regime. All fullsize toners are 15% off in March and samples of this and others are in stock! Message to book your professional skincare service or consultation today ☺️

This! Toner is so slept on!

Let’s talk Toner 💦Ashley Deckard, Asst. Director of Education and owner of A.D. Esthetics, sharing her pro-tips on creating a simple skincare routine you can stick to day and night. Reminder: your skin is like a sponge. It absorbs moisture more easily when it’s already damp. Applying toner before the rest of your skincare routine will also help set and seal your products! Are you sleeping on Toners 😴 or is it already a step in achieving your glow goals? ✨ #colorupcbd #skincaregoals #toners #skincaretip #skincarereels #glowgoals #estheticianlife #skinregimen #skincarejourney

The first toner I want to highlight is Skin script's Cucumber Hydration Toner. This product is definitely in the top five that I sell most often, and I jokingly, but honestly, tell clients that I would take a bath in it if I could. This stuff is amazing! And the smell is just delightful. It rebalances pH, balances surface lipids, boosts hydration AND aids in promoting a healthy microbiome on skin's surface. All these benefits make Cucumber Hydration Toner beneficial for almost all skin types, but especially helpful for dry skin with barrier problems.
Here's some of the ingredients:

-- Heavy Water-- has a high molecular weight that helps deliver moisture deep into the skin, minimizing trans epidermal water loss and resistant to free radicals.

-- Cucumber Fruit Extract-- soothes and refreshes skin.

-- Fructooligosaccharides-- carbohydrate from cane or beet sugar that assists in growth of healthy probiotic bacteria, strengthening skin immunity. Also helps to condition skin and provide moisture.

-- Hyaluronic Acid-- humectant that binds water from the environment to the skin.

All month full size toners are 15% off and samples of this and other awesome toners are in stock. Let's talk about finding the right one for your daily routine at your next facial appointment! Message for scheduling!

Let's talk toners! Personally, I think toners are the most overlooked products on the market- but one of the most critical and beneficial steps in skincare. Why are toners important? They play a vital role in caring for your acid mantle! Healthy skin is acidic, but cleansers are more alkaline; by using the right toner we help reset the pH so that skin is balanced and better able to absorb the serums and moisturizers applied afterwards. More than that, toners help refine and minimize the appearance of our pores. So what's the solution? Grab a bottle of witch hazel and call it done? No! Please don't…
Toners come in many forms and your skin type, concerns, and goals all need to be considered when choosing the right one for your unique skin. Astringents are more focused on removing excess oil and debris while balancing oil production, they're almost a finishing step after cleansing. Fresheners and tonics focus more on adding to the skin with humectants, moisturizing agents and other ingredients that calm and soothe.
Here at Quench Essential Skincare I have an array of professional quality toners to help fill that gap in your skincare routine - and for the entire month of March all full sized toners are 15% off! Stay tuned for a breakdown of each of these great products and book your service or consultation today!
