Types of Hyper- Pigmentation Disorders

     Post-inflammatory Hyper pigmentation : this is commonly misdiagnosed and incorrectly treated...

  • PIH can occur with various disease processes that affect the skin. These processes include allergic reactions, infections, trauma (wounds, bruises, abrasions; injuries to kidneys, spleen or liver - in a car accident for example) and photo toxic eruptions (allergic reactions to drugs coupled with exposure to sunlight), from picking acne lesions, tweezing or waxing hair, electrolysis, laser treatments, tattoos and  piercing.  See photographs at top of page which demonstrate PIH post-op...

  • Common inflammatory diseases that result in PIH include acne excoriee, lichen planus, systemic lupus erythematosus, chronic dermatitis, xeroderma pigmentosum and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, especially erythrodermic variants.

  • Furthermore, lesions of PIH can darken with exposure to UV light (from sun and tanning beds) and various chemicals and medications, such as alimenazine, aminodarone, aspirin, bendroflumethiazide, benoxaprofen, benzydamine, capreomycin, captopril, carprofen, ceftazidime, chlorpromazine, chlortetracycline, clofazimine, dacarbazine, dapsone, demeclocycline, diflunisal, diltiazem, doxycycline, etretinate, fibric acid derivatives, fluoroquinolones, 5-fluorouracil, furosemide, griseofulvin, hematoporphyrin, hydrochlorothiazide, ibuprofen, isotretinoin, ketoconazole, levomepromazine, meclofenamic acid, mepazine, methacycline, methoxsalen, methotrexate, nabumetone, nalidixic acid, naproxen, nortriptyline, oxyphenbutazone, oxytetracycline, Paxil, perazine, phenothiazine, phenylbutazone, phenprocoumon, piroxicam, procarbazine, prochloperazine, promazine, protriptyline, psoralen, pyritinol, quinine, quinidine, resorcin, sulfanilamide, sulfisoxazole, sulindac, tetracycline, thiazide, thiopropazate, thioridazine, tiaprofenic acid, tolbutamide, triflupromazine, trimethoprim, vinblastin, warfarin.

  • Pityriasis versicolor
         Pityriasis versicolor is a common skin condition caused by infection of the dead outer layer of skin cells with a yeast fungus. This causes spots or patches that have either reduced or increased pigmentation - they may be pale and white, brown or even salmon pink.   The rash usually begins on the back (or at least this is where people tend to notice it) and slowly spreads. There are often no other symptoms, although sometimes the spots are a little dry and flaky. See a dermatologist for a diagnosis before self-treating.
         A dose of sunshine can make the difference in pigmentation more obvious so many people first discover the rash when they start unwrapping themselves in the spring or summer.
         The condition isn't contagious. Most of us carry the yeast which causes it on our skin without problems, until some event or trauma to the skin allows the yeast to set up an infection.
         Treatment is simple - you can get antifungal creams or lotions from the pharmacy that must be used regularly all over the skin to clear the fungus. This usually gets rid of the yeast very quickly. However, the skin colour of the spots won't change back to normal until the depigmented areas have been shed, which can take weeks if left untreated.   We sell exfoliating body cleansers and lotions to speed up the removal of damaged cells...see products.  Support your immune system by having a medical or naturopathic doctor treat the systemic yeast (Candida) and make dietary changes .

Safer household cleansers?


   
If you or anyone in your household are sensitive, have auto-immune  or other health issues or are vulnerable to chemical toxins, research online for more information.  If you have young children, especially ones crawling or playing on the floor or carpeting or you have pets, it is very important that you take their safety and health into consideration with any cleaning, air freshening or fragrancing products you use indoors.  When no windows are opened due to weather, these chemicals build up inside the spaces - houses, apartments and offices, when combined with each other form gases and  toxic compounds that living things breathe in all day and night.  Toxins that also build up on hair, fur, upholstery, fabrics and skin.
    
Almost all household cleaning products contain some toxic ingredients, and many contain carcinogens or suspected carcinogens. However, the danger the chemicals pose really depends on how often you use the products and the length of time you're exposed to the fumes. For those with chronic skin problems, like allergies, acne, KP, melasma and more, exposure to sun with these on your skin is a concern!  If you use any of these ingredients in cleaning the house (or office or car) at least wear gloves and disposable face mask (found at drug stores and medical supply stores) and wash all exposed skin well immediately.  Here's a list of several of the common chemicals found in household products and the symptoms they can cause:

The Environmental Protection Agency (www.epa.gov) advises buying only nontoxic, unscented cleaning products; look for them in health-food stores. We use Bac Out by Bio-Kleen.  Another possibility is to substitute gentler products such as baking soda, borax, pure olive oil (not EVOO), fresh lemon or the essential oil of the fruit (found in health stores, day spas and bath shops), club soda, organic brown or white vinegar; coarse, unbleached and unrefined salts and vegetable oil-based liquid soap for most household cleaning.  

Always recycle your old household cleaning products, your cosmetics containers and pharmaceuticals (including aspirin) to your trash hauler.  Do Not Flush or Rinse these containers - the chemicals are not usually processed in the sewer treatment facilities.  Your landfill center is where these items are treated before going into the landfill.  Contain your city information center to make sure.  


Please take note:  ladies, if you are using any kind of hormone therapy - birth control, fertility therapy, menopause, post hysterectomy, PCOS, endometriosis for example, please discuss with your doctor the problems of melasma, skin cancer and  facial hair growth.  If you are taking birth control pills and your doctor wants to put you on antibiotics for acne or for illnesses, please ask questions:  it has been determined that some medications like them will render your birth control pills useless.  Unprotected sun exposure will cause problems with your skin's pigmentation, by the way, and set you up for risks like melasma.  Read more about melasma on our web page by clicking here



Using Hand Sanitizer Reduces Illnesses, USA Study Finds

  Using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer gel significantly reduces the spread of gastro-intestinal infections, influenza and common cold in the home, researchers have proven.  In a 5 month study of 292 family  homes with small children in the Boston area, half of which were given the sanitizers.  The study found that  those who used the gel had a 59% reduction in the spread of GI illnesses.  They were told to place bottles of hand sanitizers around the home and apply it to hands after using the toilet, before handling food and after diaper changes.  The other half of study families were given materials on nutrition and told not to use hand sanitizers.  Study published in issue of Pediatrics.


Editor's note:  if you spot a bump on your skin with a crater in it GO SEE A DERMATOLOGIST!  It might be "contagious Molluscum."  Commonly spread through using unsanitary towels and gym equipment, sharing clothes, linens or cosmetics, it will spread on your body if you pick or rub the bumps.

For those with broken capillaries, use Rosacea Relief  for an all natural solution to visible capillary damage from rosacea, telangiectasia, high blood pressure, pregnancy, alcohol use, sun damage, cold and wind damage, smoking and more.  Instead of trying to cover up unsightly blood vessels, protect and repair them with this capillary cream.  Formulated with horse chestnut extract to minimize the appearance of capillaries and varicose veins (which appear when blood vessels lose elasticity and become congested with blood). Aescin, a principal active compound of horse chestnut, is known to reduce inflammation and improve vein walls by plugging minute holes and microscopic leaks in venules and capillaries. This action promotes elasticity and may prevent swelling and long term damage. For evening use if you wear make up during the day as this is a different texture than most face products.  Use it over Living Cell Clarifier if you have that product in your program. 

 Also contains: water, sunflower oil, glyceryl stearate, cetearyl alcohol, cetearth-20, glycerine, cetearyl glycoside, grapeseed oil, cyclomethicone, dimethicone, shea butter, jojoba oil, xanthan gum, tocopherol, caprylic acid, glycine, lecithin, rosemary oil, lavender oil..

Together these revolutionary technologies form a highly emollient, protective and anti-oxidant daily skin therapy.

D-20 Spritz -  spray on this instantly moisturizing, hydrating, humectant liquid for a boost of "Heavy Water".  Botanical and Chiromatherapy properties that reduce cellular stress, protect against bacteria, viruses and radiation. Allow to set before applying any other products.

D2O (Heavy Water - Deuterium Oxide) really is heavier than the water we are used to drinking and bathing with!  Its hydrogen molecule is twice the weight of the molecule in ordinary water, which makes D2O 10% heavier than H2O.  This is why it stays on the skin longer, helping to hydrate and plump the cells of the epidermis.  Our make up artists see that it is beneficial in achieving longer lasting color.  We use it in the facial rooms for superior results.   Research has found that Heavy Water has a higher resistance to vaporization, which helps it stay on the skin for longer periods of time.  It has more viscosity.  This thickness gives it a higher "plumping" effect than regular waters.  It bonds with the skin and other connective tissues more strongly than ordinary water, so the skin does not dry out as quickly or as deeply.  It requires 10 times as much energy to be ionized than regular water, which makes it more protective against ultraviolet radiation.   It inactivates certain acne bacteria, making it an ideal moisturizing agent for those with blemish-prone skin.

Use to activate products, to balance skin's pH levels to reduce irritation, itching and redness, refresh make up color, as a wetting solution for make up sponges, or carry with you to hydrate the skin in smog, smoke,  bad weather or flying.  For face, scalp and body.

Contains AHA's, distilled water, witch hazel extract, Deuterium Oxide (heavy water) D-20, L-sodium Hyaluronate, L-sodium PCA, vegetable glycerin, D-beta-fructan, D-beta-glucosamine, Citrus Oil, Grapefruit Peel Oil, Raspberry Seed Oil  ( Essential Oils), benzyl alcohol.

Sun Protection

Net weight Cost Buy Now!

Ultra V Screen, SPF 30

Reduces redness, soothes the skin, feels much lighter than other SPF 30 and higher sunscreens!  Protect your skin every day from the damaging effects of the sun and of tanning beds.  Ultra violet light stresses the epidermis cells so that not only do lines and wrinkles form, skin pigment begins to darken in spots and patches called hyper pigmentation and most importantly - the skin's own immune system is weakened by repeat exposure.  

Avoid using sun screen products near the eyes unless they are specifically formulated for such use.  Spf over 10 can sting the eyes!  Avoid getting any below the eye brows and above the cheekbone, wash hands before applying eye products after you've used a sunscreen on the face.  Use Micro TZ for your eye area or check and see if your eye make up offers sunscreen protection, ladies.

Formulation: 
Active Sun Screens are Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate (Octinoxate) 7.5%, Benzophenone-3 (Oxybenzone) 6%, Ethylhexyl Salicylate (Octisalate) 5%, 
Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone)1%, 
Tocopherol,
