As the holidays approach, gift-giving anxiety may begin to set in. The holidays are a time to show those that matter most just how important they are, which is why there is pressure to find the perfect gift that expresses just that. Continue reading our blog to discover why a gift card is a perfect present.

Flexibility

Giving a gift card is a great way to ensure your loved one gets exactly what they want this year. Purchasing a gift card completely takes the guesswork out of finding the perfect present while still gifting more than cash. In addition to the flexibility behind the actual purchase, they also can choose the perfect time to redeem their gift card.

Stick to Your Budget

Gift cards are a great way to ensure you stay on budget. You no longer have to spend that “little extra something” for the perfect present when you can decide for yourself just how much you want to load onto the gift card. Giving a gift card ensures you stick to your original plan.

Treat Yourself

For some, putting money towards themselves isn’t a thought that crosses their mind. Between children, groceries, and bills, there doesn’t seem to be a reason to spend extra money on something that isn’t necessary. By giving the gift of a gift card, you are giving your loved one the reason they need to treat themselves.

Environmentally Friendly

It’s believed that as long as there is a gift receipt in the bag, a loved one can return the present and buy themselves something they truly want. Recent studies have shown this isn’t true. Whether the gift is never returned, or the return date is missed, each year, 5 billion pounds of holiday presents end up in a landfill. By purchasing a gift card for your family and friends, you no longer contribute to this statistic.

Give the Gift of Belladerm MedSpa

Belladerm MedSpa offers gift cards and during the holiday season they have a special offer: buy one gift card for $150 and get $25 free. Belladerm Gift cards can be applied to any skincare product or services. If you know of someone who deserves a treat for themselves, contact us today for more information or to purchase a gift card for the holidays.

Whether you enjoy outdoor winter activities or take these months to hibernate, the brutal cold is around the corner and ready to take a toll on our skin. Negative temperatures leave our skin red, itchy, and irritated if not taken care of properly. Now is the time to adjust your skincare routine and give your skin a head start. Read our blog as we discuss helpful tips for healthy winter skin.

Maximize Moisture with a Humidifier

A high-quality humidifier will add much-needed moisture to the air to keep your skin hydrated. If you’re still working from home, run a humidifier in the room where you spend most of your time like the bedroom or in your home office. The added moisture to the air will keep your skin feeling youthful and healthier.

Protect Your Lips

Our lips are just as affected by the cold as the rest of our body. To protect your lips, apply a generous coat of lip balm with sunscreen built-in. Avoid purchasing lip balms with alcohol listed as their first ingredient, as alcohol acts as a drying agent and will accelerate the dehydration of your lips. Lip balms that are made of mostly shea, aloe, and cocoa butter as common ingredients will soothe and moisturize.

Nourish the Inside

During the winter, the more time we spend indoors with the heat cranked up, the more dehydrated we become. Remember, taking care of our skin starts internally. Make sure to drink plenty of water and incorporate foods that contain omega-3 fatty acids, like fish and flaxseed oil, into your diet to heal your skin from the inside, out.

Apply Sunscreen

According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, the snow can reflect up to 80 percent of the sun’s rays, so regular sunscreen use is crucial to decrease your risk of exposure. Whether ice fishing, snowmobiling, or snowshoeing through a park, applying sunscreen in the winter is just as important as in the summer. And, during those dark, dreary days, UV rays can still penetrate the clouds. Make sure to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15 to all exposed areas of the body.

Shorter Showers

A long, hot shower may be appealing when the temperature plummets, but excessively hot water can dry out your skin. The American Academy of Dermatology suggests taking a lukewarm shower for five to ten minutes and avoid washing hands in hot water. Using cooler water is just as effective on germs as hot water and much less irritating to the skin.

Change Your Skincare Routine

Swap out your generic face wash for a gentler, cream-based cleanser and limit the use of toners and astringents. Products that contain alcohol and fragrances can cause further irritation and dryness, so it’s important to use products that help retain your natural oils. Also, try replacing your nightly face lotion with a thick night cream to combat the dry weather that your skin has braved all day. If you are unfamiliar with the variety of products, ask your skincare professional for recommendations.
