Skin: the secret of Hollywood stars

We have something to tell you! We visited the clinic of Kate Somerville, the celebrities’ dermatologist, and we had the Red Carpet DermalQuench Oxygen facial treatment, the one chosen by Hollywood actresses before walking the red carpet, so that you know which is the film stars’ secret to be always stunning and have a splendid skin.

The Red Carpet treatment has three steps and it lasts an hour: first of all, we had a double cleanse; then a chemical and physical exfoliation that helps to clean out the pores with pumpkin and papaya enzymes and gentle buffing beads; and then we had oxygen combined with a hyaluronic serum infused with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that hydrated and revitalized our skin and made us feel our face very alive, open and clean.

And guess what is the best part of it! We can do it at home using natural ingredients. How? For the deep facial cleanse they recommended something really easy: boiling water in a pot and putting the face near it so as the water boils, the steam comes up and it helps to open up all the pores and get all the dirt out of the skin; to exfoliate the skin, which is the most important of the three steps, they suggested a great trick: mixing cornmeal with baking soda and a little bit of water and clean the pores out with that; and to have a smooth and moisturized skin they gave us a foolproof secret: using olive, castor or coconut oil in the evening or at night.
