    Are you buying all the “right” skin care and s Are you buying all the “right” skin care and still struggling with your skin? The answer might be to take a step back. We live in a world where we are constantly bombarded with new products and new information. Often the key to BEGINNING the process of treating and healing the skin starts with taking a step back. If you’re experiencing redness, itching, dryness, irritation, acne, rosacea, excess oil production, etc. I recommend drastically dialing back on your routine to the following: Gentle cleanser- creamy/milky for dry skin. Oily skin can tolerate gel/foaming. Gentle moisturizer- dry skin look for lotion/creams. oily skin look for gel creams or oil free lotions. SPF daily- if irritated you can switch to mineral sunscreen After a few weeks of this, when your skin is no longer feeling acutely inflamed or irritated you can then start targeting your skin concerns! Note if you’re dealing with moderate to severe acne, rosacea, etc it’s best to see a Derm provider right away and avoid wasting time with the wrong skincare! Save this post and share it with your friends who might be dealing with this issue of skin care overconsumption 😂 . . . . . #skincaretips #skintips #skincareblogger #skinfluencer #dryskin #oilyskin #acnetips #rosaceatips #skinstasquad #skinstagram #skinthusiast #dermatology #dermpa #skincareroutine #skinthusiasts #glowingskin #skincarememes #skinmemes

    WHAT COSMETIC TREATMENTS HAVE I DONE?! it’s alw WHAT COSMETIC TREATMENTS HAVE I DONE?! it’s always a good day when @lipladyofmiami is putting needles in my face… She’s the one who trained me to inject and has over a decade of experience! Go follow her for lots of aesthetic tips! I’m often asked what procedures I’ve had done and I’m NEVER one to shy from this question so here we go… Neuromodulators like Botox or Dysport every 3-4 months. I waited a little long this time because life got busy and my lines were already starting to etch in! They’ll smooth right out with this kicks in. Dermal fillers every year or so. I have had my lips injected a handful of times and also have probably a total of two syringes sprinkled in my posterior cheek bones and jawline. I haven’t had any in my anterior cheeks or chin which I’m often asked about! Laser treatments- I of course do laser hair removal and a vascular laser to help with my “flushing” rosacea. Cosmetic treatments don’t have to make you look like you’ve “had work done”. In fact THEY SHOULDN’T. You should still look like yourself, just refreshed. Also, it is 100% a personal choice. Aging is a blessing and you can do so however you please 💕 Of course I wouldn’t be the skinthusiast if I didn’t plug quality skin care. That’s truly what is to thank for my complexion. All the injectables in the world will not largely improve skin texture or overall complexion so be sure to get a good skin care regimen as well! What questions do you have for me?! I’m happy to answer candidly! . . . . . #botox #dysport #cosmeticinjectables #cosmeticinjector #microneedling #filler #lipfiller #dermalfillers #dermpa #cosmeticprocedures #skincareblogger #skinbloggers #skincareinfluencer #skinfluencer
    A couple of weeks ago I shared that I am done with A couple of weeks ago I shared that I am done with my invisalign (YAY) and ready to get my teeth back in bright white shape! Thank you @hismile for sponsoring this post. I have struggled with traditional teeth whitening in the past because my teeth are VERY sensitive. So, when I found hismile I was thrilled. The @hismile PAP+ formula is peroxide free which means no sensitivity or pain! In fact, in their clinical trial 0% of people had sensitivity or pain with treatment and 100% saw an immediate improvement! So, you might be asking HOW?! Hismile uses an ingredient called PAP which is clinically proven to whiten stains without damage to the tooth. Along with Potassium Citrate, a powerful anti-sensitivity ingredient, and Nano-Hydroxyapetite to strengthen the teeth, this formulation whitens while also keeping your tooth health in mind. I can’t wait to show you my results and will be sharing my progress along the way! What questions do you have?! I’ll be happy to answer them throughout the process! #hismile #smilecare

    Skin care IS self care and if you’re ready to up Skin care IS self care and if you’re ready to up your routine, here’s mine! Thank you @anisabeauty for sponsoring this video. First, a mask can do wonders for hydrating the skin, depuffing and making it feel extra plump. The Anisa Fan Mask Brush makes for mess-free masking, my favorite kind. Next, on clean skin I apply my favorite serum. The Drop was designed with soft, plush silicone allowing me to gently press in my serums for maximum penetration and avoid losing product on my hands. For stubborn spots I’m using The Spot Treatment brush to apply my concentrated treatments! It has a central well perfect for placing product. Can’t forget the eyes! I love the scoop shape of the Eye Treatment Brush and the flexible tip allows for gentle application without tugging or pulling. The bean tool stays naturally cool making it the perfect tool to depuff around the eye area where I always need it. The roller wakes up my skin and helps move away any excess fluid. I spend a little extra time on the jawline to help with tension that I always hold here. Now I’m ready to apply my sunscreen and go on with my day feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

    Have you heard the news? Physician Assistant now = Have you heard the news? Physician Assistant now = Physician Associate. Same profession, same role, same great patient care. What are your thoughts on the change?! Tagging some of my favorite PA accounts for their input! New @wearfigs dropped today in Jade 😍
    How did I get ______ for PA School? I get these q How did I get ______ for PA School? I get these questions all the time in my DMs so I thought I would share here. 1. Patient care hours. In college I was a biology major with no real hands-on patient experience, a requirement for PA school admission. My senior year I began working as a nursing aid on a medsurg/ortho floor. This meant helping patient ambulate after surgery, ins and outs, feeds, hygiene and cleaning patients among other things. I was working here during my interview season and left just prior to PA school. It wasn’t a *pleasant* job but I learned valuable life and healthcare lessons here. Other options: medical scribe, PCT, EMT, medical assistant, nurse, and many others! 2. Shadowing hours. Another requirement for PA school is that you shadow one or many practicing Physicians or PAs. I reached out to physicians I knew, and although got many NOs, had a few opportunities to shadow. My advice here is to just keep asking around. Reach out to your local and state PA Associations who often have a list of providers who are willing to have pre-PA students shadow. 3. The grades. It’s no secret that PA school is increasingly more competitive. School has always come somewhat naturally to me and I was fortunate to have good study habits from the start. If you are struggling to meet top tier GPA requirements my advise is to retake any science classes you receive less than stellar grades in to boost your science GPA. The science GPA is sometimes weighted more than your overall so focus there. Be ready to discuss any grades below a B in your interviews. Strengthen your application elsewhere by getting involved in any healthcare based groups you can find. I was a member of wellness committees and other wellness/healthcare focused groups on campus. 4. The confidence. This one is more important, in my opinion, after you’ve graduated. As many of you know I worked as a critical care PA for the first two years of my career. My advice is to find an environment that invests in your learning. You must be learning on the job after you graduate and that takes the right teachers. Save this post for later or send it to a friend preparing for PA school!
    AD: Japanese skincare has taken the US market by s AD: Japanese skincare has taken the US market by storm and I find my favorites like the Seiso JBeauty Fuwafuwa Foaming Cleanser at Shikō Beauty Collective, a new online premier Japanese beauty marketplace that just launched in the US. I love that the Japanese art of self care entails thoroughly cleansing the skin while not stripping our natural skin barrier. The Seiso JBeauty Fuwafuwa Foaming Cleanser provides a thorough but gentle cleanse, lifting impurities while also moisturizing and eliminating the need for a toner. Formulated with pure water to be applied directly to dry skin, this ph-balanced cleanser is gentle, non-stripping and lifts impurities, makeup and SPF for a truly clean feeling all while bathing my skin cells in moisture that doesn’t leave behind an unpleasant film…Coconut amino acids gently cleanse while fermented rice extract softens the skin and glycerin plumps and moisturizes. It's gentle enough to be used twice daily, and if you’re wearing makeup or sunscreen, you can even cleanse twice in a row! Visit Shikō Beauty Collective and use code AMY15 for 15% off all your JBeauty favorites! @shikobeautyco #ShikoPartner #myshiko
