Insights from Chapter 1
#1
The skin is the body’s protective shield. It’s made up of three major layers: the epidermis, the dermis, and the hypodermis, which is the thickest and fattiest layer. Together, these layers protect the body from bacteria and pollutants in the environment, serve as a filter for toxins that can’t be handled by the body’s other organs, and regulate temperature.
#2
The epidermis is the layer of the skin that’s visible, and it’s the center of cell activity. It makes up 95 percent of the skin’s cells, and they produce a fibrous protein called keratin, which gives your skin structure and resilience.
#3
The dermis, the layer of skin beneath the epidermis, begins to lose thickness in your mid-twenties. The production of collagen and elastin slows down as well, and much of your skin’s existing supply starts to break down.
#4
The aging process affects the skin, which becomes dehydrated and develops wrinkles as it loses its ability to retain water. Sun exposure, cigarette smoking, alcohol use, and poor diet are all factors that can accelerate the aging process.
#5
85 percent of my clients have sensitive skin. Many assume that skin sensitivity is reserved for fair skin, but that is not the case at all. In fact, darker skin tones are more sensitive than lighter skin tones.
Insights from Chapter 2
#1
The most dramatic advancement in the beauty industry is how what we put into our bodies affects our skin. Beauty isn’t skin deep, and today most people understand that they need to eat nutritious meals, avoid particular foods, and drink enough water to achieve their own brand of agelessness.
#2
The skin relies on the proper functioning of the lymphatic system, which is a network of vessels that carries a substance called lymph through the body. Lymph helps the body absorb fats and fat-soluble substances, and maintains the balance of fluids in the blood and tissues.
#3
Vitamins A, C, E, and K are found in large concentrations in the epidermis and dermis, so it’s a natural component of skin that evens pigmentation, increases elasticity, brightens complexion, and improves skin’s resilience.
#4
Free radicals are molecules that have lost electrons and become unstable. They exist within cells, and they are formed when you are exposed to environmental stressors like sunlight or pollution. They attack DNA, protein receptors, and enzymes, and they destroy mitochondria.
