Unlock Your Best Skin Yet: Take Our Quiz to Identify Your Skin Type

Posted on by Angela

Let’s be honest: understanding your skin can be a daunting task. With so much information and individual factors that can affect our skin, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Even Amelia Goff, the creator of Fresh Face Skin – a skincare brand designed to offer simple yet effective solutions – faced this challenge.

Her struggle with identifying her skin type and finding effective solutions that catered to her individual skin needs led her to an in-depth study of skin science and skincare ingredients, ultimately inspiring her to create a brand that encapsulates her findings and principles around skin.

From oily to dry, sensitive to acne-prone, knowing your skin type is the first step towards achieving a healthy and radiant complexion. Let us help support you on your journey to discover your skin type.

Why are there different skin types?

The diversity in skin types is actually a fascinating aspect of human biology. Just like we all have our own unique allergies and sensitivities, the skin reacts differently based on genetics, environment, and lifestyle.  Our skin’s characteristics are deeply rooted in our biology and evolutionary history.

Human skin types have evolved as adaptive traits in response to various environmental factors, particularly the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation and climate conditions. Early humans, in their quest for food and water, faced the challenge of staying cool in hot environments, which led to an increase in sweat glands and a reduction in body hair. This adaptation helped with better cooling through perspiration. However, skin exposure to different environmental conditions influenced the evolution of various skin types.

For instance, those in humid, tropical regions often developed oilier skin to protect against constant moisture, while individuals in arid climates evolved with drier skin to minimise water loss. As humans migrated to diverse environments, their skin adapted to balance hydration, sebum production, and sensitivity based on the local climate and lifestyle. These evolutionary changes highlight the complex interplay between genetics, environment, and lifestyle in determining skin characteristics and shows us just how clever the skin organ is!

Classifying skin types involves various factors, including sebaceous secretion, hydration, and sensitivity. Genetics play a primary role, but skin type can also change over time due to factors like ageing, hormones and lifestyle. Common skin types include dry, sensitive, oily, combination, and acne-prone, each with unique needs and care requirements.

How to care for each skin type 

Dry skin often feels tight, rough, and may be prone to flaking or a rough skin texture. It lacks natural moisture and oil, making it susceptible to irritation and premature ageing. For those with dry skin, products that reinforce the lipid barrier are essential. That’s why Fresh Face Skin’s Soother Treatment is ideal for this purpose. It strengthens the skin’s barrier profile, preventing moisture loss and protecting against external irritants. Ingredients like Camellia oil, which is rich in omega fatty acids, improve the skin’s barrier function and reduce inflammation. Additionally, the Recovery Mask, rich in ceramides, prebiotics, and vitamins B5 & B3, provides deep hydration and repairs the skin’s barrier, ensuring a youthful complexion.

Sensitive skin is characterised by redness, itching, and a tendency to react to products and environmental factors. Maintaining a strong lipid barrier and balanced microbiome is crucial. The Soother Cleanser from Fresh Face Skin, formulated with L22 and Macadamia seed oil, gently cleanses while nourishing the skin. For enhanced protection, the Barrier Mist bolsters the skin against pollutants and prevents moisture loss, using Biolin to support the skin’s natural defences.

Oily skin is marked by excess sebum production, leading to a shiny appearance and frequent breakouts. Balancing oil production is key. Fresh Face Skin’s Healer Treatment is perfect for oily skin. It clears surface bacteria, reduces oiliness, and strengthens the skin’s barrier. This versatile treatment helps maintain a clear complexion without stripping the skin of essential moisture.

Oily-combination skin features both oily and dry areas, typically with an oily T-zone and dry cheeks. Balancing hydration and oil control is essential. Products that offer lightweight hydration, such as Fresh Face Skin’s Hydration Booster, can be used alongside oil-controlling treatments like the Healer Treatment to maintain equilibrium.

Hormonal acne and acne-prone skin require targeted treatments to reduce inflammation and clear hormonal breakouts and congestion. Fresh Face Skin’s Healer Treatment is designed to speed up healing and balance oil production. It uses plant and fruit extracts to calm redness and fight surface bacteria. For an added boost, the AHA & Enzyme Exfoliator Peel in One gently removes dead skin cells, brightens skin tone, and stimulates cell turnover, aiding in the management of acne, breakouts, cystic acne and improving skin health.

Understanding your skin type is crucial for effective skincare. From dry to oily, sensitive to acne-prone, each skin type has unique needs that require tailored care. Fresh Face Skin’s range of products, inspired by Amelia Goff’s dedication to skincare science, offers solutions for every skin type, helping you achieve a balanced and healthy skin complexion. See the results for yourself by checking out Fresh Face Skin’s website.

To discover your skin type, take the Fresh Face Skin skin quiz. This quick and easy assessment will guide you in identifying your skin’s needs and recommend the best products to enhance your individual skincare routine. Researching your skin type is the first step toward a glowing, healthy complexion, long term. Embrace your unique skin type and find the perfect skincare solutions with Fresh Face Skin.

ABS CBN Star Piolo Pascual Shines on Metro’s Latest Cover

Posted on by Angela

Piolo Pascual graces the newest digital cover of Metro in time for his comeback series “Pamilya Sagrado.”

In the exclusive Metro cover story titled “’Pamilya Sagrado’ Star Piolo Pascual Is Living Life in the Fast Lane,” the unstoppable actor-producer described the ABS-CBN family drama as sociological.

“It’s a mirror of society. We are not being political, but more sociological. We want to tell the story of how we are,” he said.

The ABS CBN star also opened up about how liberating it is not to have his hair dyed for the new role as an ambitious governor named Rafael Sagrado.

“I let my character flow from what the director tells me, what the writer tells me. I thought, ah, I will let my grays show, which made me so happy. It was liberating, I didn’t have to go to a salon and get my hair dyed,” he graciously shared. “But one change I made was that I wanted to make my character more dark. So when he changes, it’s more seen.”

Apart from his comeback series and his recent FAMAS win, the versatile star likewise talked about interests that have been keeping him busy outside showbiz, like his venture into a resort business in Palawan and his love for running.

Campari’s ‘We Are Cinema’ Campaign Debuts at Cannes, Supporting the Magic of Film-making

Posted on by Angela
Campari launches its brand campaign ‘We Are Cinema’ at the 77th Festival de Cannes, which celebrates real-life moments that become the remarkable stories that make it to the screen

Campari returns to the red carpet on 14th-25th May 2024. The iconic red bitter brand continues its role as Official Partner to the Festival de Cannes for the third consecutive year.

Festival de Cannes is one of the most anticipated, watched, and glamorous film festivals worldwide. Campari, meanwhile, has a longstanding connection with the world of cinema, having supported the industry and championed its film-making talent for the last 40 years.

It’s apt, then, that Campari has chosen the opening of the 77th Festival to launch its We Are Cinema campaign. Its role is to acknowledge human stories as the inspiration for some of the world’s greatest cinema. Building on Campari’s role as curator of aperitivo occasions, Campari celebrates those real-life moments that become remarkable stories. Viewers of the new campaign can expect a melody of cinematic moments artistically brought to life and told through the vivid red lens of Campari’s creativity.

As both festival and campaign unfurl, Campari will again host and promote a series of events from the Campari Lounge in the Palais de Festival, overlooking the famous red-carpet. This year, the brand also introduces Hyde Beach by Campari, a new iconic space on Boulevard de Croisette, where stars and guests will be welcomed, and events hosted throughout the festival.

Amongst their exciting programme, Campari is honoured to announce both new and returning collaborations:

Cole Walliser will be based in the Campari Lounge, interviewing guests and celebrities. The director and celebrity host, famous for the behind-the-scenes GlamBOT clips, will eagerly tune into his entertaining dispatches covering the red-carpet action from the lounge.

Campari is also rejoining forces with The Hollywood Reporter, recording a special festival edition of the Awards Chatter podcast with Kevin Costner – director, writer, producer and star of Horizon: An American Saga. Costner will join THR’s Executive Editor of Awards, Scott Feinberg, live to talk about his returning to the big screen Western, premiering at this year’s Festival de Cannes.

One of the most anticipated events has to be the Official Cannes After Party for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. During the festival Campari will host this star-studded event at Hyde Beach by Campari in celebration of the latest instalment of this epic franchise.

Campari will also partner for the third year with Breaking Through The Lens, a non-profit organisation which empowers women in film by facilitating access to vital funding. Together, they will host the ‘Crossing Borders’ gala to celebrate women who have transcended cultural borders. The evening will include a panel discussion with globally renowned actress Diane Kruger, who will be joined by other industry figures – including Campari Group Head of Marketing Julka Villa – to share their own unique experiences.

The 77th Festival also marks the debut of Campari’s partnership with Soho House, to host a one-of-a-kind creative film competition. Supporting and honouring emerging film talent, it focuses on the elements of life that transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, similar to the role of Campari in mixology.

Campari is more than an aperitif. With such unmistakable characteristics, the brand has long been a source of passionate inspiration. Since its birth, Campari has always been at the forefront of cocktail culture, inspiring passion in bartenders across the world. With Camparino in Galleria, master mixologists, serving up their famed cocktails – including Negroni and Campari Spritz – the Campari Lounge and Hyde Beach by Campari are the perfect places to raise a toast to inspiring stories and the talent behind them.

Campari Group Head of Marketing, Julka Villa comments: “We are delighted to return to Festival de Cannes, this year bringing our passion for cinema and stories through our global We Are Cinema campaign to the iconic Festival setting. With a strong and enduring legacy in the cinema world, creativity and passion remain at the heart of everything we do. This year, we look forward to continuing to bring this to our audience through a programme of remarkable moments throughout the Festival.”

Unlocking Confidence: A Deep Dive into the Evolution and Impact of Hair Transplantation

Posted on by Angela

The practice of hair transplantation, popularised by advanced hair loss clinics, can be traced back to the 1950s. Initially met with skepticism, it has evolved remarkably, embracing technological advancements and refining its techniques to the height of accuracy it holds today.

Let’s delve into the world of hair transplantation, its evolution, and its impact on individuals grappling with hair loss.

Understanding Different Hair Transplant Techniques

In the realm of hair restoration, Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) stands out, with NeoGraft being a notable example of an evolution of the base procedure. As detailed by Hair and Skin Science Australia, FUE involves the removal of individual hair follicles from a donor area, typically the back of the head, and their transplantation to the balding or area of concern. NeoGraft enhances this process by automating the extraction and implantation, ensuring precision and minimising scarring at every extraction and implantation.

Pros and Cons of NeoGraft FUE Hair Transplants and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

Each method has its merits and limitations. While FUE and NeoGraft offer quicker recovery and less scarring, they might require multiple sessions and come at a higher cost. Like with all surgery, there can be risks, and every patient will be assessed for their suitability.

At Hair and Skin Science hair loss clinic Melbourne and other locations, these costs can range from $7,000 (for up to 800 grafts) to $7,500 (for up to 2000 grafts).

While transplants can sometimes be inaccessible due to cost and availability, Hair and Skin Science has made this option more widely available with its competitive pricing and clinics across Australia, including their hair loss clinic Adelaide branch and many other locations.

Advancements in Robotic Hair Transplant Technology

The leap towards using this robotic technology marks a significant milestone, especially when compared to hair transplants in the 1950s, which relied on a method called “punch grafting.” Surgeons at that time would extract small circular sections of scalp tissue, known as punch grafts, containing multiple hair follicles and then implant these grafts into the recipient sites. Unfortunately, this technique often resulted in an unnatural appearance with a “doll’s hair” look.

Today, thanks to technological advancements, modern hair transplant methods like follicular unit transplantation have greatly improved the naturalness of hair restoration procedures. They offer greater accuracy and speed in follicle extraction, delivering results similar to those seen with NeoGraft FUE. These advancements reduce human error and optimise the aesthetic outcome.

Benefits of Hair Transplants

Hair transplants and the impacts they have can vary from patient to patient. One impact that some individuals have reported is a boost in self-confidence following successful hair transplant procedures.

In this study, ‘Impact of Hair Transplantation on Quality of Life, ’ it is suggested that some individuals – specifically those who participated in this study – experience enhanced self-esteem, body image, and overall better quality of life after undergoing hair transplant surgery. These participants reported increased confidence and a reduction in feelings of anxiety and depression following their procedures. The impact of undergoing hair transplant surgery may include improvements in social interactions and relationships for some individuals.

The Future of Hair Transplantation

Emerging technologies in hair restoration hint at exciting developments. Research is delving into stem cell therapy and gene editing, offering possibilities for more efficient and comprehensive solutions. The future of hair transplantation looks toward not only restoring hair but potentially preventing hair loss at its roots. And hair loss clinics like Hair and Skin Science, are making these cutting-edge hair loss solutions more accessible. Whether it’s a hair transplant clinic Melbourne or across Australia in general, they aim to continue making hair loss solutions available to all.

Final thoughts

Understanding the journey of hair transplantation is pivotal. For some, it’s not merely about the technicalities of hair growth but also about reclaiming the aspects of their identity that they have lost confidence in. For those contemplating this path, seeking professional advice and support is crucial; clinics like Hair and Skin Science can provide that assistance. With locations spanning across Australia, including a hair transplant Adelaide branch and many more, you can visit the one closest to you for more information to kickstart your journey toward hair restoration.
