It's not just the weather that is changing!

Your skin is constantly changing so just when you think, aha! I have a handle on my oily t-zone or I am doing a great job at keeping those dark circles at bay, bam! it changes and you are back trying to figure
out what your skin is doing and what it is reacting to.
 
It could be just one thing, like a shift in the weather, but most likely it
is a myriad of factors ganging up on your skin. Changes in hormone levels, or diet, an illness, perhaps a cosmetic procedure, simple aging or even travel can all combine to create changes your skin's condition.
 
The first step to taking back control is to book a facial. If time is a rarity, then a fifteen minute skin analysis will work. But either way, it is important for me to take a look at your skin. By feeling, touching and seeing first hand what your skin is doing I am able to personalize products that will truly benefit your skin.
 
Personalizing products is the key to Julianna Beauty and for healthy
and beautiful skin everywhere. Every product in my skin care line has been developed over time with the help from clients of all skin types. Every product was developed with a hands on approach, over and over again-each product was developed with a client's specific need in mind.
 
I combined those years of research with the nutritive and healing benefits of the world's finest plant extract to create a product that is safe, effective and gentle.
 
I time my products with the changing seasons. I use this time to change the nutritive ingredients in my products to provide the benefit your skin will need for that season. What the skin craves on hot and humid days is far different from what it needs on cold, dry days.
 
By producing my products this way, in small batches, I am able to provide personalized products for your skin, not just your skin type....
the difference is amazing and the results, well they are simply stunning.
 
The Fall line is now available. The products are filled with yummy ingreditents like almond, chamomile, cranberry, grape and sunflower.
If you know the products that work best for you and would like to place an order, please send me an email I will have it available the next day for pick-up in the Salon.  If you think your skin has changed or are new to Julianna Beauty and would like to schedule a fifteen minute skin analysis or facial, email me your best days and times. We will get it scheduled by the next day.
 
Until next week, bellissimo

Smoke and mirrors

This might sound funny but a little over thirty years ago, while looking in a mirror, I found my true passion, beauty. Not mine, but others. I dedicated my studies to the natural science of beauty and worked closely with clients. From this, I developed a line of skin care products, virtually unchanged for 30 years, designed to maintain and enhance the skin.
 
Over the years I run into individuals who have tried the latest, greatest anti aging cream, or one of the 'quick results' treatments guaranteed to turn back time. Some have even resorted to surgery. Ads run daily on the tv and full spreads can be found in all the beauty magazines, talk show hosts play with the newest products. But behind all this smoke is just marketing. The beauty industry is a well honed machine.
 
My personal experience shows clearly that beauty is in it's purest form when left natural. Now that doesn't mean not caring for it. Beautiful skin comes from maintaining it. Not one "fail safe, quick fix treatment" will replace  years of cleansing, toning, and hydrating.
 
After each of my treatments, I hold a mirror up so my clients can see just how beautiful they are. I do that whether they are 23 or 91, because at any age, they are truly beautiful.
 
I know a little something about smoke and mirrors....this past week we had a house fire in our home here in Seattle. Smoke caused a lot of damage to some very precious items - the crystals on my wedding dress, drop cystals on my treaused chandeliers, even a few antique mirrors. I saw first hand how damaging smoke can be and I was reminded of the damage caused by the smoke and mirrors of big business beauty.
 
So, I encourage you to pick up a mirror, revel in your own beauty and if you need some help, give me a call. I would love to help you find the natural beauty. not only in your skin, but within you!
 
Until next week,
