The American Academy of Dermatology Association is celebrating National Healthy Skin Month! November is a time to take a look at what we can do to help our skin be in the best shape it can be. 

An article published by the AADA walks you through important steps to take in order to have healthy skin. At YOSEP, we are always focusing on giving you the best natural ingredients to ensure healthy results. Among the tips mentioned, these two simple steps should be taken daily in order to help your skin heal and stay healthy: 

• Face washing 101

• Protect your skin from the sun

When we were developing our Yosep 2 in 1 Face Cleanser, we wanted to make sure that the ingredients in our cleanser were gentle enough for all ages but effective enough to provide an efficient facial cleansing. A gentle, but effective, face cleanser is a must have for everyone. It helps remove impurities from our skin allowing our pores more breathing room. 

Some people worry about using a facial cleanser because they feel that it will dry out their face. YOSEP’s 2 in 1 Face Cleanser uses Olive Oil Peg-7 Esters.

• Olive Oil Peg-7 Esters: Derived from the fatty acids of olive oil, it is known for its softness and dermatological compatibility. Excellent cleansing properties. Proven to reduce irritation in the skin.

This wonderful ingredient provides excellent emollient, conditioning, solubilizing and co-emulsifying properties. It not only cleans but it also conditions. Cleaning should not result in dry skin. That said, some people need a little more moisture in their daily routine.

This month, while some places celebrate National Healthy Skin Month, think about adding these two steps to your routine if you don’t already do them and don’t forget to enter for a chance to win a Three Miracle Shots! Contest ends this Thursday, November 12, 2020.

Welcome Fall, Welcome Autumn, Welcome Cool Weather! As Fall rolls around, I am reminded of how the seasons bring about so much change. Some get to see the leaves turn colors, the cool crisp air is a constant and the days are shorter. If you garden, you put your garden to bed, and you put in your fall bulbs. If you live in a warm weather climate location, you have milder changes but can still be reminded of this transition.

Some people tend to think that warm weather is the culprit of acne. When we sweat and our faces have dirt caked in with that sweat, it can clog up our pores. We don’t think about acne as a cold weather problem, but think again! We need to practice our cleansing routine daily, during the warm and cold months. Neglecting it can bring about more blemishes. During these cold months, we need to cleanse and moisturize, really moisturize!

Our 2 in 1 Face Cleanser is perfect for any skin type. It is very gentle without compromising its cleaning efficiency. Yosep’s 2 in 1 Face Cleanser has 5 active ingredients:

1. C13-15 Alkane: Powerful makeup cleaning properties, especially for makeup that is waterproof. Provides a soft and silky finish without an oily residue.

2. Babassu Oil Glycereth-8: Rich in lauric acid and one of the all time favorite skin care ingredients because it is perfect for all skin types.

3. Maris Sal: Salt derived from the Dead Sea of Jordan, rich in minerals that are essential for our skin. Stimulates cell growth and regeneration, acts as a firming agent and counters effects of free radicals in the skin.

4. Olive Oil Peg-7 Esters: Derived from the fatty acids of olive oil, it is known for its softness and dermatological compatibility. Excellent cleansing properties. Proven to reduce irritation in the skin.

5. Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate: Natural fatty acid with foaming qualities that are less intense than similar ingredients used in skin care products. Provides antibacterial properties.

This 2 in 1 Face Cleanser is also an important part of your daily routine given that most of us are wearing face masks when we go out now. The pandemic has brought about changes and with the usage of face masks, we have seen an increase in skin problems. Here is a great article by the American Academy of Dermatology Association that walks you through the steps to keep your skin healthier while mask wearing. They also include tips on what to look at when using a mask to ensure you minimize problems.
