🌿 Why Antioxidants Matter for Your Skin 🌿
Skin Tips by Kenzie ✨

Your skin faces daily stress from sunlight, pollution, and even your phone screen — all of which create free radicals.
These little troublemakers break down collagen, dull your glow, and speed up aging.

That’s where antioxidants come in — they’re your skin’s natural protectors. 🛡️

✨ Here’s what they do:
🌿 Protect your skin from daily damage
💧 Strengthen and support your skin barrier
🌸 Brighten and even out tone
💫 Slow visible signs of aging

Common antioxidants to look for:
🍊 Vitamin C – Brightens + firms
🌼 Vitamin E – Nourishes + protects
🌿 Ferulic Acid – Boosts other antioxidants
🍵 Green Tea Extract – Soothes + defends
🌾 Niacinamide – Calms + supports barrier

Healthy, radiant skin starts with protection — not just correction.

Red Light Therapy ✨
Your glow-from-within treatment for skin health + repair 🌞

Here’s why it’s amazing:
🌿 Boosts collagen – smooths fine lines + firms skin
💧 Speeds healing – calms irritation + supports recovery
🌸 Evens tone + texture – promotes a natural, radiant glow
🔥 Reduces redness + inflammation – soothes sensitive skin
⚡ Energizes skin cells – recharges your skin from within

How often?
💫 3–5 times per week for 10–20 minutes

Tips for best results:
✨ Cleanse first — no makeup or SPF
💧 Keep 6–12 inches from your skin
🌿 Hydrate + moisturize after

Consistency = results 💛

✨ Let’s Talk Acids ✨
Skin Tips by Kenzie 🌿

Acids might sound intense, but they’re some of the best tools for achieving smooth, healthy, and radiant skin — when used the right way. Here’s a quick guide to help you understand what each one does and how they support your skin:

🍋 Citric Acid – A gentle fruit acid that brightens dull skin and helps even out tone. Has antioxidant properties.
🌼 Azelaic Acid – Calms redness, reduces blemishes, and supports clear, balanced skin.
🍊 Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) – A powerful antioxidant that boosts glow and protects from daily stressors.
💧 Hyaluronic Acid – A hydration magnet that keeps your skin plump and dewy.
🌙 Glycolic Acid – Exfoliates dead skin cells for smoother texture and a fresh, healthy look.
🌿 Ferulic Acid – Strengthens and supports your skin barrier while enhancing other antioxidants.
🌸 Salicylic Acid – Clears pores and reduces congestion, great for oily or breakout-prone skin.
🌾 Mandelic Acid – Gentle and brightening, ideal for sensitive skin types.
🥛 Lactic Acid – Softens fine lines, smooths texture, and improves hydration.

✨ Remember: Acids don’t need to be harsh to be effective. Always start slow, layer with hydration, and listen to your skin.

🧴 Signs Your Skin Barrier Is Compromised 🧴
If your skin suddenly feels off, it might be your barrier asking for help 👇

✨ 1. Redness or irritation – your skin looks flushed or feels hot
💧 2. Flaky or tight skin – dehydration at the surface
🥵 3. Burning or stinging – even gentle products feel harsh
😩 4. Sudden breakouts or bumps – your skin is trying to protect itself
🌫️ 5. Dullness – your glow is gone because your barrier can’t hold moisture

💖 Repair it by focusing on hydration, gentle cleansing, and barrier-supporting ingredients like ceramides, niacinamide & panthenol.

5. Eye Care:
👁️ Botanical Kinetics Energizing Eye Creme — brightens and smooths tired eyes.

🌙 Evening Routine (Aveda Only)

Use the Purifying Creme Cleanser again or double cleanse if you wear makeup.
2. Exfoliate (2–3x/week):
✨ Botanical Kinetics liquid exfoliant

Botanical Kinetics Intense Hydrating Rich Creme or Tulasāra Renew Morning Crème (yes, it works great overnight for dry skin).

💫 Optional Add-Ons (Non-Aveda Enhancements)

If you want to level up results for sun damaged or aging skin, add these:
• Vitamin C serum (AM): helps fade dark spots and repair sun damage.
• Retinol or plant-based retinol (PM): gently boosts cell turnover and smooths texture.
• Hyaluronic acid serum: adds extra hydration under moisturizer.
• Facial oil: a few drops of rosehip Oil mixed into your night cream for deep nourishment.
