I recently discovered the GlyMed Plus skincare line at the fab Sacramento salon, AJF. The esthetician there, Heather, is spectacular by the way if you're in the Sacramento area. In any case, they use GlyMed products exclusively. I was a little suspicious because I'd never heard of the line, but it turns out that is because it's a professional-grade skincare line retailed primarily through medi-spas, estheticians, and dermatologists. The line is known for high concentrations of active ingredients like glycolic acid, lactic acid, Vitamin C, and many other active ingredients including acne-fighting goodies.
During my facial, I experienced a variety of great products, many of which smelled divine. But one product in particular took the cake (so to speak). If you're having a chocolate craving but trying to watch your calorie-intake, why not treat your skin instead? GlyMed's Chocolate Power Skin Rescue Masque is the ultimate luxurious hydrating repairing mask. It is packed with active naturals like resveratrol, acai berry, jojoba, and cocoa. The ingredients are all designed to boost cell turnover, hydrate, and soften. It's a great mask to use on a weekly or bi-weekly basis (if for no other reason than it smells yummy), but it would be particularly good to use to heal skin after an aggressive procedure like microdermabrasion or a sunburn or when your skin is just dehydrated or peeling.
Needless to say, I'm hooked on the mask and bought it to use at home. I'm going to explore the GlyMed line a bit further, so check back for updates.
