Essential skincare products

The skin is the biggest organ in our body. And we are huge believers in essential skincare. We think it is very important to treat yourself and your skin well. At Elite Sothys Cleanser-Toner combo at Elitewe also believe in the french women’s method: Taking care of yourself and your skin from a very early age on.

The number one product that every woman should have is a great cleanser.

Types of essential skincare cleansers

For a younger audience, we would recommend foaming cleansers. They will remove unwanted dirt and excess from the skin.  Cleansers should be used at least twice a day, in the morning and in the evening.  Morning cleansing is very important because the skin is rejuvenating during the night. Cleansers also remove old cells before we apply any serum or cream.

For mature women, we propose milk cleansers. They are applied with cotton pads and should be rinsed with water.  Milky cleansers are more gentle and also hydrate your skin already during the application. They are great in combination with a toner that can be individually recommended to your skin needs, or used with micellar water. The milk cleansers should also be used both, mornings and evenings.

You may consider and choose from various Sothys cleansers and toners that can be recommended for your skin type. They are very specific to your skin needs. No matter if you have sensitive, dehydrated or oily skin – there is a milk cleanser in essential skincare just for you.

Exfoliation

After your skin is properly cleansed and dried, it is very important to exfoliate your skin.  Exfoliation can be done at home on a weekly basis, and there are many types available:

  • Gommage exfoliators that need to dry on your skin and need to be rubbed off,
  • Scrubs, and
  • At-home peels

In our spa or in a Dermatology facility you will have access to even deeper exfoliators that can be applied monthly.

We think it is very important to work with your doctor or esthetician to achieve your best skin. To us, beautiful skin is a skin you want to confidently show even without make-up. So if you are going to do anything for yourself and want to improve the appearance of your skin, please start with a world-class cleansing and toning routine. And remember: Even the smartest, expensive, and effective serums and creams out there will not work unless your skin is properly cleaned.

If you have any questions about essential skincare or would you like to schedule one on one virtual consultation please give us a call or email us or simply request an appointment.

Protect Your Skin from Indoor Pollution

Today, we want to take stock with you on indoor pollution. It is not the first type of pollution that comes to mind, but it is by far the most dangerous for us.

Did you know:

  • the air in our homes and offices is, on average,  8X more polluted than the outside air, and
  • we spend around 70 – 90% of our time indoors.

Understand where this pollution comes from. This pollution has many origins.

  • It can come directly from the building itself  (paint, construction materials, etc)
  • The decoration that we install  (carpet, plastic materials, candles, etc)
  • Our daily activity and habits  (household chemicals and cleaners, tobacco, etc)

With so many different origins, polluting microparticles overload the air.  The first good reflex is to ventilate our homes at least 15mins per day.

The first consequence is the increase in the reactivity of the skin: Have you noticed an increase in your client’s skin sensitivity or reactivity?  Are you noticing this more and more?  It is the effect of indoor pollution.  On top of that, there is a more significant presence of clogged pores.  And the skin is more prone to dehydration.

Some consequences of indoor pollution:

  • Wrinkles are more noticeable
  • The appearance of dark spots
  • Dull complexion
  • Premature aging

Our Sothys solution against indoor pollution:

Organic spray-tan – Get gorgeous in minutes

Get a gorgeous organic spray-tan and beautiful radiant skin at the same time!

Organic spray tanning is definitely an excellent choice for everyone who wants to enjoy the benefits of sunless tanning without harming their skins.

Organic spray tanning comprises of 100% organic and natural ingredients. This means no synthetic colors, parabens, alcohol, oil, perfume, and… is odor-free. The best thing about spray tanning is that you can get that sexy bronze glow without having to lie under the sun for hours, exposing yourself to various health risks associated with UV radiation. In an organic spray tan, wrinkles, dry skin, irritation, rashes, and other skin problems are diminished. This type of spray tanning binds the moisture in the skin and repairs skin cells that have been damaged by the harsh sun rays. This is done with nourishing ingredients, certified organic and safe synthetics, like Aloe Vera, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and COQ10 that leave the skin better off than it started by hydrating, brightening, softening, negating free radicals (another way of saying combating sun damage) and creating elasticity.

In addition, organic spray-tan creates tans that last long and fade evenly because it intensively hydrates the skin. It also disguises cellulite and blemishes to produce an evenly toned body. And the price? It’s cheaper than you think!

$25 single session
$100 unlimited monthly access

Other tips for a healthy summer skin are:

  • Don’t forget sunscreen
    Use a sunscreen whenever you step out. This is crucial as sunscreen helps in shielding your skin from harmful UV radiations. In fact, UV rays bring about the early onset of skin ageing.
  • Stay low on makeup
    Sure, we all love to apply makeup but during summers you need to keep it low. To protect the skin’s natural glow, the most important thing is to stay away from heavy makeup. Moreover: get into the habit of taking it off before sleeping to let the pores breathe.
