Have you ever looked at bright and beautiful eye shadow colors and thought "I could never wear that?" Well you can! Your age and skin tone don't matter at all. It only matters how you apply it.
There are many levels of bright, from subtle to intense. The first trick is to experiment. Try new things and figure out what works for you. In fact, we want to hear about it, so please comment below or upload pictures to our facebook page.Here are a few ideas to get you started:
Bright Eyeliner: I love to use eye shadow as eyeliner, and this is a way to use that bright shade in the eye shadow triple you may have been avoiding. Wet your Detail Brush with Hydration Spray or water and dip it into a dark, bright shade like the teal in Azure. Or you could try a nice bright shade of 24-Karat Gold Dust, like Aquamarine. Line the lower lash line only, from inner to outer corner. Use a neutral liner on the upper lash line, such as grey, black or brown; and a neutral shadow on the lid. This really allows the one swipe of color to pop.
Bright crease and lid: Brighten your eyes in a whole new way by thinking color for the crease, not just depth. Eye Shadow Triples are so versatile! Use your Crease Brush to sweep on a medium shade such as the turquoise shade from Sea Foam, the orange shade from Pecan/Chocolate or the sage green shade in Azure. For more intensity, try the Eye Shader Brush. Another idea is to put one of those shades right in the center of the lid, above the iris. Then the color winks every time you blink your eyes.
Colored Mascara: Don't be shy, it doesn't have to be that electric blue from the eighties (unless you want it to). Try a flick of Navy PureLash or Ripe Plum Longest Lash to add a hint of color when your lashes catch the light. You can apply from root to tip, or apply your usual black or brown first and then just paint the ends with the colored mascara. Feeling flashy? Try painting the tips of your lashes with Gold or Silver Liquid Eyeliner.
Smoky eyes: So you're ready to take the pure-drama plunge?

NouveauDerm Medspa has been carrying PCA Skincare since we have been open and we are very pleased to read about an article that PCA Skincare posted. We learned that PCA is an ideal choice for soothing and supporting the skin of those undergoing treatment of cancer.

PCA SKIN® is an ideal choice for soothing and supporting the skin of those undergoing treatment for cancer. We offer many advanced daily care products that provide gentle, non-irritating cleansing; soothing; and strengthening benefits for stressed skin. Some specific product recommendations are creamy cleanser, anti-redness serum, hydrating serum, brightening therapy with TrueTone, perfecting face & body hydrator SPF 30, après peel® soothing balm, ReBalance, silkcoat® balm and peptide lip therapy.
common dermatological side effects of cancer treatment
• sensitivity or allergic reactions
• severe dryness
• flushing
• hyperpigmentation
• photosensitivity
• rashes
• acne/folliculitis
Through good skin care, we can help these patients look and feel better. It is wise to select skin care products that do not contain synthetic fragrances, colors or other known sensitizers to avoid instigating any reactions. Peels should be avoided during the course of chemotherapy, except detox gel for acne breakouts/folliculitis. Cancer patients should consult their oncologist prior to beginning any new regimens.
rehabilitating the skin after completion of treatment
Using gentle products during treatment can help keep hyperpigmentation at bay, but when the skin recovers, blended superficial chemical peels can help to rid the skin of any unwanted pigmentary deposits. Protocols should focus on the low-dose approach to allow the skin to adjust and regain equilibrium. Our highly educated team of Physician Consultants is also available to help you customize regimens and treatments for them.
Sunlight, the elements and the natural aging process all contribute to the development of dark spots and freckles. Your face, hands and chest are the first parts of the body to show signs of aging because they receive so much sun exposure. Age spots and freckles are forms of pigmented lesions. They are caused by excess production of melanin in the skin by cells called melanocytes. Most of the lesions are just a cosmetic problem. Things that would make some one suspicious about pigmented lesions being precancerous or cancerous are irregular borders, scaling, bleeding, itching, multiple colors or large (or increasing) size. Any suspicious lesion must be biopsied before it is removed. If ever questionable, err on the side of caution.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) devices have been used with great success to remove brown spots. The goal here is for the energy to be selectively absorbed by the pigmented areas, sparing the normal surrounding skin.

The American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery has once again ranked Botox® as the most popular of all medically administered cosmetic procedures. The cosmetic form of botulinum toxin often referred to as Botox®, is a popular non-surgical injection that temporarily reduces the activity of the muscles that cause the frown lines between the brows, forehead creases, and crow's feet near the eyes. One ten minute treatment of a few tiny injections will result in noticeable improvements, which can last up to 4 months.
If underarm sweating is significantly interfering with your daily activities and topical agents haven’t worked, you may be a candidate for BOTOX® treatment. First, understand how this condition may affect you. Then, schedule a visit to a dermatologist to discuss products and treatment options that are right for you.

Microdermabrasion is a non-chemical, non-invasive procedure that uses a spray of microcrystals to remove the outermost layer of dry, dead skin cells and reveal younger, healthier-looking skin. Microdermabrasion also encourages the production of a new underlying layer of skin cells with higher levels of collagen and elastin, which further improves your skin’s appearance. Microdermabrasion is much gentler than dermabrasion. Dermabrasion is a more intensive procedure used to treat deeper facial lines, extreme sun damage, and scars.
Patients who have never heard of this treatment before will want to know, what are chemical peels? A chemical peel is a treatment in which an acid solution is used to remove the damaged outer layers of the skin. Typically administered as a facial peel, a chemical peel enhances and smoothes the texture of the skin. It is an effective treatment for facial blemishes, wrinkles, and uneven skin pigmentation.
IPL PhotoFacials are designed to target skin cells at a deeper level than conventional facials, encouraging skin cell turnover and increasing the rate of collagen production - the necessary compound for keeping skin strong and healthy. IPL PhotoFacial systems make use of light energy to calm and heal the skin, and can also help to increase collagen production deep within the skin’s surface. The pulses of light penetrate deep into the epidermis where collagen and blood vessels expand and contract from the energy waves. The ongoing light energy stimulates the production of collagen which in turn helps to keep skin looking youthful and fresh.
Acne afflicts everyone at some point in their lives, primarily during adolescence. For some, acne can persist as a serious problem even into adulthood. While the physical discomfort of acne differs from case to case, the psychological pain is more widespread and long lasting. Understanding this, NouveauDerm Medspa has created a treatment experience that is as soothing as it is effective. Though there is no cure for acne, it can be controlled most effectively using our customized treatment programs. For our younger clients, if active acne is treated during your teen years, there is a higher likelihood that you will not suffer any permanent scarring.
Medical Facials provide the key to beautiful skin and a radiant complexion. During a medical facial, your Certified Licensed Esthetician will revitalize and rejuvenate your skin.

Moisturizers, amino acids and rich minerals hydrate, improve circulation and nourish your skin to bring out a healthy glow. If you’ve never had a medical facial, you don’t know what you’re missing. The skilled staff at NouveauDerm Medspa offer a variety of medical facial treatments to meet your individual needs.
Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses laser light — an intense, pulsating beam of light — to remove unwanted hair. Laser hair removal works by passing a light beam through the skin. The laser targets dark pigment, called melanin, in hair. When the light beam hits the hair follicle (where hair growth originates), the intense heat destroys the hair follicle instantly.
Spider veins (telangiectasia or venulectasias) are enlarged veins near the skin surface that appear purple, red, or blue. Commonly found on the legs, spider veins can occur on the face and other parts of the body. These enlarged veins are usually short unconnected lines or arranged in a sunburst pattern resembling a spider's web. Unsightly spider veins occur in a small, unnoticable area, or they can cover a large area of skin.
Rosacea (pronounced roh-ZAY-sha) is a relatively common, chronic skin disorder. Most people have no knowledge of this disease, including how to recognize it and what to do about it.
