Skin Typing
Our skin changes with the seasons of the year and the seasons of life, which is why ARC Skin Care products are created to be interchangeable and fully customized for your best results.
Skin Types
The foundation of consultation and the proper home regimen is in determining your client’s Skin Type. You can do this by identifying the abundance or lack of oil on the skin’s surface. Maintaining a balance is an important characteristic of healthy skin.
NORMAL/ Well Balanced
Normal skin types have a healthy look and are not oily or dry. The goal for this skin type is to maintain this balance, improve skin radiance and texture, and prevent environmental damage in all seasons.
OILY / Excess Shine
Oil glands are overproducing, resulting in excess shine, a greasy look to the skin, and breakouts. Advanced Rejuvenating Concepts products for Oily Skin/Acne help manage oil production, reduce breakouts and prevent environmental damage.
DRY / Dull and Lined
Characterized by a dull appearance, tight feel and fine lines, dry skin types suffer from natural moisture loss. Improve the look and feel of dry skin with a combination of products that help fortify the skin’s barrier against the elements, seal in hydration, and help improve the skin’s elasticity.
COMBINATION/ T-Zone
Commonly referred to as t-zone, combination skin types are characterized as having increased oil and shine from the forehead down the nose and the chin, with dry regions on the cheeks. Balancing this skin type with Advanced Rejuvenating Concepts product range helps prevent environmental damage, breakouts and blackheads, while refining the pores and improving the look of the skin.
SENSITIVE SKIN
Characterized and skin that reacts with burning, itching and sometimes inflammation to a variety of topical or environmental triggers; sensitive skin is a surprisingly common Concern. Advanced Rejuvenating Concepts’ solutions for sensitivity encourage healthy regeneration and provide the skin with essential nutrients while helping to prevent environmental triggers of sensitivity.
Skin Concerns
As aesthetic professionals, we’ve learned that skin care regimens should evolve with the changes of the seasons and changes related to aging. Identifying your clients skin types is the foundation of the regimen. Identifying the skin’s Concern will help target the regimen and get your client on the path to healthier and more radiant skin.
