The Significance Of cuSTOm BlendingSince the dawn of history, the use and application of natural substances, botanical and biological products, have been known to man. Today's botanicals are used individually and in combinations with each other, creating a synergistic eect. In the beginning, cosmetic-like preparations came only from nature. With the introduction of synthetics, the cosmetic industry moved away from natural ingredients. Now we witness the return to naturals and the industry's current trend toward custom blending. Custom blending allows the esthetician to customize products to the clients individual needs. Our extensive variety of botanical extracts, super nourishing oils, vitamins, minerals, seaweed ex-tracts, and biological extracts permits the esthetician to take nearly any of our ready products or blank bases, choos-ing those that are well suited for the clients skin type, and transform them into custom treatment products which will deliver the extensive benets of the custom blending natural substances. With the incorporation of this ap-proach to skin care the esthetician acquires a new domain in which she gains a strong customer loyalty, the advan-tage of maintaining and utilizing the latest ingredients, and develops a reputation of expertise and professionalism.Customer loyalty is essential in any profession, but especially in skin care, where the client is entrusting their most visible asset - their skin. When an esthetician custom blends a product for a client, the client can physical-ly see the custom ingredients being added, so there is no speculation or doubt that the product will be eective. Furthermore, the client knows that she cannot simply go to any salon for such a product. In order to receive the product that is specically customized to her needs she must go to the esthetician that utilizes custom blending.Another advantage of custom blending lies in the ability of keeping up to date with the newest trends in skin care without having to continuously invest in numerous dierent lines of cosmetics. When new ingredi-ents appear or reappear on the market magazines and television immediately educate and inuence the re-tail customer in the benets of using a product with such components. Our Custom blending Line allows you to simply add many of these new ingredients to a product that is appropriate for the individuals skin type. Cre-ating, not only a customized product but, a product that follows the latest developments in current skin care.We oer over 60 European quality ready skin care products and over 100 pure custom blend-ing ingredients that you receive directly from the manufacturer. From this array of choic-es the professional esthetician can develop an unlimited spectrum of customized products. The ability of an esthetician to apply the methods of custom blending demonstrates an exceptional qual-ity of expertise and an essential character of professionalism that the clients of today expect and demand.

ingredienTS uSage SuggeSTiOnSThe Custom blending extracts, blends, oils, biological, minerals, and vitamins are truly potent ingredients that are NOT made to be used directly on the skin. They are made pure and concentrated in order to be added to either ready products or blank bases. The % dosage of ingredients to be added to a base product varies. Usually this is 1-3%. For some products it can be as much as 5-10% (see suggested dosage). This is an approximate and rough average. An Esthetician has to use her professionalism and prepare a blend accordingly to the customer's skin type and skin condition. Applying custom blending to your product line and services is very simple: 1. Choose a ready product that correlates to the clients skin type. 2. Add the appropriate amount of the custom ingredient that you profes-sionally feel will further enhance the product you have chosen and fur-ther benet the client's skin. (Or create a completely new product by using our blank base - cream, gel, mask, etc.) 3. Add the extracts, oils, vitamins, mineral, seaweeds, cosmec preserva-ve, and sun screens of your choice. Your imagination and professionalism is the limit. Custom blending gives you the opportunity to putyourself ahead of the competition.caring fOr Skin The naTural WayMany people do not realize that our skin is our most vital organ, and the largest living organ of our body. Its thick-est points are the soles of the feet, the palms of the hands and the back. At its thinnest point, the eyelids, the skin measures only 1/25 inch. The main functions of the skin are to regulate our body temperature and, more impor-tantly, to protect our internal organs against the oenses of the outside environment. The elasticity of the skin is a protecting shield against shock and damage to the body. Skin is divided into three layers: the epidermis, dermis and subcutus; each with its own unique functions. I. The Epidermis: This is the highly cellular uppermost layer, usually comprised of 15-20 layers that overlap at the skin's surface. The epidermis continually undergoes the birth, life and death of cells which are created at the base of the epidermis and, after a two-week migration, are shed at the surface.

This cell activity is performed by three layers each with its own responsibilities. a.) The Basal Layer: the bottom most layer Containing melanocytes, the pigment producing cells; and where cell growth begins. b.) The Prickle Cell Layer: the middle and thickest layer, Containing the hair-like projections on the skin. c.) The Horney Layer (or “acid mantle”): the uppermost layer of the epidermis, constantly shedding cells at the skin's surface. II. The Dermis: Made up of brous cells and housing the elastic support of the skin. Nerve endings located in the dermis detect changes in temperature and feel pressure, pain and vibration. III. The Subcutus (or “fatty layer): has two important functions: to serve as a cushion for vital internal organs, and as a storage site for reserve energy for the body. Our skin is one of our most visible and delicate assets, and is subject to more than its share of abuse. If we do not pay attention, it can ”cry" for help in the form of a rash, infection or just plain aggravated neglect, as in the form of severe dry skin in the wintertime. There are an innite number of products touting daily regimens designed to maintain healthy skin. However, we need only remem-ber ve basic ways to care for our skin: cleansing and exfoliating, toning, moisturizing, sun protecting and nourishing.Cleansing and ExfoliatingEach day our skin comes in contact with dirt, oils, cosmetics, environmental pollution and perspiration. Our only defense is cleansing the skin. Extra mild, “light” cleansers today are benetting from the addition of plant extracts that oer cleansing of their own as well as foaming compatibility. Botanicals and infused fragrance oils are compatible for all of these products and have added benet to the consumer. Exfoliators, used to slough o the dead uppermost layer of the skin and leave the skin with a smooth, glowing complexion, are commonly formulated with ammonium glycolate and other salts of Alpha Hydroxy Acids.ToningToners are products intended to shrink the pores after cleansing and refreshing the skin. Also called fresheners and bracers, these products are skin sensitizers and when applied topically give a cool, tight and tingly feel to the skin. As-tringents, pore-reners and rening lotions are all relatively similar products which are basically stronger concentrates of those listed above. Today's toners/astringents are being reformulated with botanicals and Blends marketed for those unable or unwilling to tolerate alcoholic solutions. Natural astringents, such as ginseng, elder and angelica owers, horse chestnuts and sage leaves, to name a few, tend to be more gentle and soothing in nature while providing as-tringency. Peppermint and spearmint oils can also be added for their cooling and moisturizing eects, and as fragrant components. Menthol and camphor are frequently and commonly used as well.MoisturizingYoung skin diers from mature skin in many ways. In our teen years, oil (sebaceous) gland secretion may trigger are-ups of problematic skin. During our mid-life, diminished oil gland secretion contributes to dry skin and akiness. Thin-ning of the epidermis and degeneration of supporting elastin bers contribute to moisture loss. It is for this reason many moisturizing products are advertised to prevent the rst signs of aging and sun damage.Today's consumer is not so easily enticed. More people are reading labels and scrutinizing ingredients, looking for plant-derived ingredients. Moisturizing products with natural ingredients and therapeutic claims are bringing renewed interest into the skin care industry.

HUMECTANTS Humectants are ingredients that attract water as it passes through the epidermis (as well as the surrounding air) and are contained in most moisturizers together with occlusive ingredients, which lock in the moisture already con-tained in the skin. Fats, polyunsaturated oils such as apricot kernel, olive, and avocado oils are common occlusive ingredients used in moisturizers.Aloe vera, chamomile, elder ower, rosemary, sage and yarrow all oer moisturizing benets to the skin and are compatible with formulas containing humectants and occlusive ingredients. In addition, these extracts oer sooth-ing, softening, calmative and anti-inammatory advantages.BOTANICAL EXTRACTSThese botanical extracts are produced from the selected and purest raw materials collected all around the world and processed by using the most advanced low temperature extraction under vacuum. These botanical extracts are all water soluble making them well suited for astringents, mists, masques, lotions, gels, and some creams (due to the delicate HLB - hydro lipid balance). For the more nourishing night creams and eye creams, an addition of a custom blending ingredient may upset the emulsion and therefore should be avoided. Usually for custom blending; 1.0% - 5.0% of an ingredient is used according to the type and sensitivity of the skin. The selection and combinations of the botanical extracts for dierent custom products can be chosen according to the functional benets they oer a specic skin type. Recommended for customizing, manufacturing and external use only.Custom blending items are for dilution only.
