The Winter Skin Restoration
What is your skin’s barrier?
It is the body’s first defense against harmful toxins that can penetrate your skin. The skin barrier is also known as the Acid Mantle (the pH balance). When the skin’s barrier is compromised, these are the symptoms you will notice:
Skin has no bounce
Skin is not elastic
Wrinkles
Discoloration
Thinning of the skin
A powdery finish that indicates water loss
Visible infections from germs and viruses
So how can you avoid damaging your skin barrier?
Avoid cleansers with harmful fillers
Stop using soap
Stop using harsh exfoliants and ingredients
Stop using tanning beds
Reduce the amount of sugar intake
Avoid chemical peels
Have you heard that Oil is bad for your skin and that you should always try to remove it or scrub it away? I am guessing your answer is yes. But science says NO!
What should you do to help your skin’s barrier from becoming inflamed? The skin has the ability to repair itself quickly but it requires help from the most beneficial moisture and oil combination. If the skin does not receive the 911 help from the correct daily care, your skin goes into overdrive. Without the balance of oil and moisture, your skin will show the appearance of premature aging skin.
Assist your Winter starved skin by restoring the Moisture and Oil with Desensitizing Serum and Night Emollient Creme.
If your skin has sensitive characteristics, use Chamomile Night Creme with Desensitizing Serum.

Face Serums and My Skin Buddy
"Elsa, why do I need a serum if I am already using a moisturizer?"
This is a question I am asked often. Skincare has really come a long way and I can't imagine in today's time not using a serum. With our exposure to today's environment and toxicity, serums really help our skin receive the proper nutrition necessary to fight off these pollutants and to correct any skin condition.
Moisturizers were created to fill up the layers between the cells similar to filling in a cake. If the space between cells is empty, then the skin becomes dry. While moisturizers do provide nourishment to the skin and keep our skin moist, serums have the following benefits:
Serums contain a higher percentage of active ingredients.
You experience a shorter amount of time to see improvement.
Serums treat skin issues like dullness, acne, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation.
Serums absorb quickly into the skin.
Serums soothe sensitive skin.
They feel light on your skin.
They fight free-radicals.
Serums boost your skin's texture.
The best way to use a face serum is to apply them before your moisturizer, sunscreen, and makeup.
If you haven't done so, add a serum to your home skin care routine and take advantage of this amazing offer.
Purchase My Skin Buddy and receive 50% off on your favorite serums. Hurry while supplies last! Imagine your skin with this added technology.
This offer is not available online. Send me a message and I will hold your order for pick up or delivery.

Since 2019, My Skin Buddy has received the Aesthetician's Choice Award for best handheld facial tool. Investing in My Skin Buddy saves you time because it offers four technologies at the same time - LED light therapy, Ion Care, Ultrasonic Vibration, and Heat Therapy. It's easy to use, made in the USA, and it has a lifetime warranty. Yes, I said it - Lifetime warranty! Unheard of! You need to know more? Listen to the recorded conference for more information.
It Can’t Get Better Than This!

3-Must Know Toner Tips
Question: "Do I need a toner?”
I get asked this question all. the. TIME, and it is a great question! Answer: A toner is a superpower skincare product!!
Here are three (3) ways a toner can help you achieve gorgeous skin:
An added boost to your cleanse and enhanced makeup remover. Wipe face (post-cleanse) with a (toner) saturated cotton round.
Controls oil production, decongests the skin and purifies the pores. Wipe face (post-cleanse) with a (toner) saturated cotton round.
A spritz of toner - after makeup application - brightens the skin and gives a dewy airbrush finish. Once you finish applying makeup, mist toner over face, neck, and décolletté, then gently press into the skin.
Bonus Tip: I keep a bottle of toner in the fridge - and you should too - because nothing lifts the spirits like a mid-day pick-me-up toner spritz to the face!
Let me know if I can help you find the right toner for your specific skin type and skincare goals - it would be my pampering pleasure.
The Perfect Summer Glow
Did you know that our Facial Infusion is a medical-grade, professional, non-acid peel?
Facial Infusion is a complete rejuvenation, skin remodeling treatment designed to increase circulation, and boosts immunity and hydration without the inflammation associated with an Alpha hydroxy acid. The high doses of active ingredients travel deep into the dermis through a liposome delivery system which can be performed all year LONG!
Facial Infusion is placed within the category of dermal peels but is considered more of a dermal treatment. It is gentle, it creates change through stimulation not peeling with specific receptors designed to interact with fibroblast for more collagen production.
Every Facial Infusion treatment is customized with powder actives and blends. It is the most effective because it heals acne, repairs photo damage, thickens the dermis, lifts hyperpigmentation, restores capillary flow, and reverses the sign of aging, plus the most relaxing with no downtime!
If you haven't experienced our Facial Infusion treatment, now is the perfect time to include it with your facial.
Black Friday & Small Business Saturday
In a few days, small businesses will be experiencing the most eventful and successful part of their year - Black Friday and Small Business Saturday!
What is the main difference between big corporations and small businesses? Small businesses strive on giving excellent customer service and we love our communities. We sponsor athletic programs, sponsor holiday events, donate to local charities, and the list goes on. While big stores can offer you huge discounts, I ask that you support small businesses because they are the foundation of America. Small business owners seriously spend more than 10 hours per day wearing many hats. Their business is their livelihood and their families are very much involved in the operation.
This year is especially important that you support small businesses because as you know they have been extremely affected by the Covid-19 mandates. You play a big role in helping small businesses thrive and there is nothing worse than driving thru your community and seeing shuttered, closed down stores.
So thank you for allowing me to gain your trust. I love making you feel beautiful! Every treatment and product I offer is based on what my clients need.
The Black Friday special is available now! You will receive a 15% discount at checkout. On the 27th and 28th, there will be no sales tax added to your purchase. If you prefer to place your order directly with me, text or call me at 818-334-4926.
Introducing to you our new serum - Eye & Lip Caviar! New science and advanced technologies have engineered a treatment soufflé for the over 40 skin that targets characteristics of accumulated damage in the expression and stress areas of the face. E&L targets the delicate, soft over-exercised tissue surrounding the eye and mouth!
Around the lips we experience nasty vertical lines that reveal the loss of elasticity and lip color accentuates it!
Around the eyes, E&L improves soft tissue firmness, improves elasticity, and clinically improved 21% in wrinkle depth.
Why is E&L so special? It consists of plant based ingredients with targeted benefits proven through clinical research.
Eye & Lip Caviar is part of the Complexion Correction family. When used day and night, it's proven to turn back the clock, improving the look of deep wrinkles around the mouth and eye area. The ingredients help to support the skin's ability to make and retain collagen and vital moisture.
Don't miss on this introductory price! The regular price for Eye & Lip Caviar is $69. For now a limited time only, the price is $59. In addition you will receive a travel size if you promise to give it to your friend. Let your friend know that if they purchase the Eye & Lip Caviar, they will receive the $10 discount also + the travel size.
Also, the Holiday Eye Kit is here at a markdown. It consists of the Eye & Lip Caviar with Eye Area Mask. The regular price is $98, holiday price is $78!
Before you make your online purchases from BIG stores, please consider shopping from your small community stores. We have added holiday kits to our online shopping store.
Until next time!
Peace and Love,

Quick Quiz
I am sending you this quick quiz for a few reasons:
To make sure you're doing ok
This quiz will allow me to help you get your glow back
If I haven't seen your face in a while, I want to remind you that I am here for you!
POP Quiz: How Lit is Your Beauty Routine?
My beauty routine is:
A. Out of touch, Struggling. In need of inspiration.
B. I am doing the best I can, but missing my old serum I used to apply on myself.
C. Heck, I am ok considering how crazy 2020 has been!
D. Glad you asked! My beauty routine is always lit! Can't stop! Won't ever stop cleansing and moisturizing.
What your answer reveals about your beauty routine:
If you answered A, Completely understandable. 2020 has proven to be a STRANGE year to ALL! I know when I am feeling out of touch nothing makes me feel better than a self-care routine. There's an undeniable dose of feeling good that comes with a good facial cleanse and applying a deputing eye cream! Here's how I can help: right now head to your bathroom and set out your favorite cleanser, moisturizer and eye cream. Tonight commit to a self-care routine that will nourish your soul and your skin. *Please reach out tomorrow (just reply to this email) and let me know if my tip worked to help you!
If you answered B, Yup. I hear you, and I have also been feeling this way! You are (most likely) experiencing a feel-good deficit. It's normal to feel this when you are thrown for a loop. How do I personally pull myself out of this type of funk? Great questions! I start to think about what I can do right now to create healthy glowing skin. *Click here and check out my favorite pick me up facial serum.
If you answered C, I am thinking you might just need a gentle nudge in the right direction to get from, "I'm ok," to "totally lit" energy. Head to Silky Skin and get yourself on the books for an in spa or virtual beauty treatment. I bet you'll instantly feel better knowing you are finally taking care of you! I am here to tell you that you deserve a little me time!
If you answered D, Yes! #LIT YOU. GO. Girl (or Guy). I am glad you're staying on top of your routine. Here's what I would LOVE from you. Share this rock star energy! Send me smiling selfie showing off that beautiful skin, or tag me on social! Here are my handles @silky_skincare or Facebook.com/funtasticskin. The truth is ENERGY is contagious and we need to hear from people like you (now more than ever)!

I am back to my second home - Silky Skin!
I am taking appointments now and my abbreviated schedule is Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 9am to 5pm.

As soon as you enter the studio, you will be asked to wash your hands and remove your shoes before entering the treatment room.

2020 Has been Different
I am sure you are thinking 2020 can't end soon enough. We've been dealing with fires, distance learning, virtual healthcare appointments, and the list goes on. Our lives have been challenged in one way or another.
Last week my husband and I were able to get away from all the noise and this allowed me to reflect on all the good that has come our way this year. On a personal level, we became grandparents for the first time to our Avia Joy! She feels our hearts and every week she comes up with something new to enjoy. She is 8 months old now!:) Also, my husband is responding well to his treatment and I know this was not possible without your prayers. Thank you!
On a professional level, Silky Skin has a new home and I am very pleased with its location, size, and it's interior design. I've kept myself very busy during this closure and I just want to update you with the following:
I became certified to offer Virtual Facials.
My website was redone with an updated menu and easier online shopping and booking.
I attended advanced training and I can't wait to implement them! TAMA Therapy is proven to be the best in skin care and I will be offering additional treatments that reflect my holistic skin care philosophy.
I joined the 60Day Beauty Biz Challenge and I found it very empowering because of the support I received from like minded individuals.
Normally I like to offer my Gratitude Sale in November, but this year is different! I can't thank you enough for your continued support and loyalty. I am offering The Elogen System with a price that is better than ever. Place your order now or let me know if you want me to hold one for you!
Priced better than ever before! The Elogen System (Celagen, Alphagen, Hydragen or Intense Moisturizer) offered at $110! Savings of $65. Place your order now and use the discount code GRATITUDE2020!
Did you know...
Long time before the words anti-aging were the buzz words, The Elogen System was being researched by a leading Cell Biologist, Neil Riordan. He was mapping the aging process of the human cell in his quest for a cancer cure. He found common elements as to how cells deteriorate with traditional cancer therapy and the normal process of aging cells (loss of moisture, loss of elasticity, and loss of collagen). In 1997 Complete Cosmetics introduced Alphagen, Celagen and Hydragen known as the Elogen System which is a core "anti-aging" regimen created to be used twice daily. Ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Amino Acids, Peptides, and Vitamin C are considered in 2020 to be cutting edge and gold standard ingredients. All of this has been a part of the Elogen System since 1997.
Once I am able to reopen, I will be calling my VIP call-back list first. Please reply to this email with your phone number and let me know that you would like to be added to this list. After these calls, other clients will be able to make appointments through my online scheduling software.
Live, Love, Look Beautiful,

P.S. If you're feeling as let down as I was about booking an (in person) appointment to get your skin glowing, schedule a virtual facial and I'll walk you through how to get results at home. When will I be able to "legally" get back to your face? I don't know, but I do have some beauty hacks to share with the hopes they will keep your skin looking gorgeous and your spirits up.
Break up with your Brush
We surely need a break from everything we are experiencing here in California. From Covid-19 to these fires, I hope you are safe and well.:)
This awful air quality is causing inflammatory issues on our skin (eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, acne, and extreme dehydration).
This couldn't be a better time for you to invest in My Skin Buddy to boost your skin care regimen at home. Your skin is an investment, not an expense.
My Skin Buddy is a great travel companion!
No worries! Each purchase comes with a complimentary instructional session.
Be a beautiful soul that people will crave your vibes!
Until next time,
Elsa

Do you have Pandemic Pores?
Do you have Pandemic Pores?
Stress, unusual schedules, and disrupted sleep have left several of my clients suffering with what I'm calling "pandemic pores" where the stress inside our bodies have started showing up on the outside. While I can't end the pandemic nor make all of the stress to go away, I can share some tips to help you maintain healthy looking skin during these times.
Three Signs You Have Pandemic Pores
1. Dry, dehydrated skin - Flaking, dryness, and tightness are all signs your skin isn't getting enough moisture. Our pores can't function properly when our skin is not adequately hydrated.
Quick fix: Bump up your moisturizer with an added hydrating serum or a non-pore-clogging facial oil.
2. Blackheads emerging - Your pores are getting full of excess oil and debris if you can see blackheads on your face. While we can't reduce pore size, we can reduce the appearance of their size by keeping them clean.
Quick fix: Get back on track with your morning and evening skin care routines, and don't sleep in your makeup. Add a gentle exfoliant.
3. Jawbone Acne - What ever happens on your chin and jawbone, know it is connected to your hormones. Heightened levels of stress and anxiety can cause these types of breakouts.
Quick fix: Add an acne spot treatment to blemishes. Take time to meditate, make exercise a part of your stress release routine, and create a daily moment of zen in a quiet place with cup of Skin Health Tea by Yogi.
Adding these quick fixes will help you get your pandemic pores under control. Please reach out if you would like customized skin care recommendations or a consultation. I would love to share my skincare knowledge with you, and help you start feeling your best again.
Happiness, Health, and Clean Pores,
Elsa

Masks
I will be wearing a mask at all times. All clients are expected to be wearing a mask at arrival.
Safety and Sanitation
As always, I maintain the highest level of sanitation and disinfection practices in my studio. I use hospital-grade disinfectants to sanitize all surfaces before/after guests and upon opening/closing.
I will be wearing disposable gloves throughout the facial and/or waxing.
I will be adopting a cashless payment system for a limited time. Guests can prepay, or use ApplePay, GooglePay, or have your credit card information securely stored in Square.
While the experience will be different from what you're used to, I remain committed to delivering safe, effective, and rejuvenating beauty treatments. I can't wait until you're back with me, and the uplifting scents of my studio fill the air again.
See you soon,
Elsa

15 Beauty Hacks from Licensed Estheticians from Around the Globe, Enjoy!
BODY
For super soft skin, try a full body dry brushing before getting in the shower. My skin is always so soft because of this. - Lupe D.
EYES
Check out Tori Belle magnetic lashes! They make me feel beautiful, especially when we have to wear a mask everywhere, and all you see are eyes now. - Dawn M.
FACE
If you have active treatments (masks, exfoliants) that leave your skin a little red, use them before bed! The redness will dissipate while you sleep, and you'll wake up with glow skin. - Jessica G.
FEELING GOOD
Putting effort into my appearance, such as wearing my favorite jeans or top, give me life! Get out of "lounge wear" to feel more productive and motivated. It's easy to look frumpy when there's "no where" to go! - Janice T.
FEET
Weekly foot soaks with bath salts and essential oils are so relaxing! Also, apply lotion and cotton socks before bed - giving the feet a good massage in the process (bonus: a golf ball works nicely as a massage tool) - Alison P.
HAIR
Root touch up spray by Joyce! A little spray at the roots, and no one is the wiser. - Kim S.
HANDS
Keep your favorite hand lotion right by the kitchen sink, and apply each time you wash. - Karla H.
HEALTH
I added a collagen powder to my morning coffee, and Vitamin D and an Omega fish oil to my daily routine. I am noticing a huge difference in the look and feel of my skin. Lori C.
LIPS
Banish dry lip flakes for good with a clean, soft toothbrush. Just wet it and run it over your lips in a circular motion, taking care to be gentle. - Angela T.
MORNING ROUTINE
Put an ice roller in the freezer and use all over the face and neck while your coffee is brewing. It's a perfect wake up routine for the body, mind, and soul. - Lisa S
MUSCLES
Lacrose massage balls release tension in the body (mostly neck, shoulders, and upper back between shoulder blades). An excellent choice since we're not getting massages. - Jess M.
SLEEP
Put lavender sachets under pillows or spray on. Beauty sleep is essential. - Phivan N.
SMILE
I love my Snow Teeth Whitener. It took 4 weeks to get, but so awesome! - Sandy A.
SOUL
Meditating twice a day for 15 minutes has kept me calm and made it easier to just let things go that I have no control over. Less stress=less fine lines. - Cricket E.

Revitapen – The Revitalizing Facial
What an amazing Revitalizing Facial that softens fine lines, reduces scarring, improves hydration and controls breakouts! This is the treatment I’ve been anxiously waiting to include in our Silky Skin menu. Utilizing the noninvasive, ergonomic handheld RevitaPen, enhances product absorption to create visible and instant results to firm and refresh the skin. It is so gentle and safe that it can be used around the eyes, directly on the lips, and around glands or lymph nodes. By creating microchannels, more active ingredients are driven deep into the skin and more product passes the skin’s barrier to increasing moisture content and restores skin health and appearance.
The nanotechnology used allows for maximum absorption of professional use only targeted serums. Whether you’re combating aging, blemishes, sunspots or other skin issues – direct delivery of these serums right to the edge of the dermal layer will restore the ideal micro-environment your skin needs for optimal function and regeneration. In a matter of days, brand new, smoother, more radiant and even-toned skin will start to appear.
Ask any questions by contacting or calling us today!
By the way, Silky Skin is a 2017 Yelp Award Recipient! Thank you so much for your reviews and I really appreciate the opportunity to earn your business. I will be posting more about this soon, stay tuned.
