Your skin is your biggest asset, and your biggest organ. So it only makes sense to take care of it! While many people think of skin care in OKC as just bottles of beauty, at Bliss Med Spa and Beauty Lounge it means so much more. We invite you to think outside the bottle when it comes to improving your skin care routine by learning about the science behind building better skin!
Your Skin Type
To find your ideal skin care, it all starts by identifying your specific skin type. How does your skin feel right now? If it’s a little greasy, dry, or just dull, Bliss knows just how to enjoy the look and feel of your skin again! Here’s how we recommend caring for the most common types of skin we see every day.
Oily
If you’re experiencing greasy or oily skin, you may see shinier features and feel residue when you wipe your face. You may also struggle with acne due to clogged pores. This is all due to an overproduction of sebum related to diet, genetics, seasonal changes, and so many other factors. While sebum is naturally helpful for your skin’s health, too much of a good thing can turn bad!
To help your skin feel less oily, we recommend starting with a specialized exfoliation and cleansing. This will create the best environment for other skin care to work its magic. As you add professional grade products devoted to optimal moisturizing and protection, you’ll naturally feel less greasy and more confident! Jump ahead to our recommended skin care formula if you’re experiencing oily skin.
Dry
If your skin feels drier than normal, it may not just be Jack Frost nipping at your nose! We often find dry skin linked to environmental factors. However, genetic predispositions, medications, and dehydration can all cause easily irritated skin due to a lack of natural moisture.
Obviously optimal hydration is essential in this case, but to retain that hydration throughout your skin, we also recommend looking into your daily habits. Moisturization is just as important as protection and prevention. To see our specialists’ top recommendations for this type of skin care in OKC, skip ahead with the button below!
Sensitive
If you love long, hot showers, but hate sensitive skin, you may have a choice to make! Alongside limiting how far you turn that handle, professional cleansers and caring professionals can help you feel comfortable in your own skin again. Even if you take care of your skin properly, genetics, hormonal issues, and even your environment can impact your sensitivity.
As we look to limit these effects, Bliss recommends gentle cleansers, exfoliation, and moisturizers to give your skin everything it needs with no irritation. Regular facials alongside clinical grade skin care products are essential to improving and maintaining your skin health. Skip ahead to see our top recommendations for sensitive skin below!
Balanced
Maybe you don’t have any of the skin types mentioned above. But even if you are blessed with naturally balanced skin, there’s always a way to make your best better! At Bliss, we’re driven to help everyone let their inner glow out. That’s why we recommend the best treatments alongside even better daily skin care routines!
Hydration and protection are crucial parts of anyone’s skin care in OKC for so many reasons! Aging can accelerate as your skin takes on all four seasons in the Midwest. But with healthy hydration, your skin will maintain healthy elasticity and resist lines and wrinkles with ease. To lock in that moisture and protect your biggest asset, wearing sunscreen year round is crucial! Our favorite formulas for this skin type are waiting for you below, but first, let’s get into the brands Bliss loves!
Bliss’ Best Brands
Some of the best skin care brands in the world are right here at Bliss! Our team always recommends thinking outside the bottle when it comes to total skin care in OKC. But sometimes the best way to elevate your daily routine starts with just one simple change! That’s why we take your unique conditions into consideration as we suggest ways to take care of your skin.
Alastin
The best parts about these bottles of proven technology comes down to peptides! Alastin features Tri-Hex technology takes typical peptides to a whole new level by including active peptides and natural botanicals. This powerful pairing works to improve your body’s natural cellular turnover in 3 stages!
-
Removal
By including tripeptide-1 and Hexapeptide-12 this phase of Alastin’s formulas work to remove aged collagen and elastin through your skin’s natural rejuvenation process. This promotes a purer environment for fresh, healthy cells to form!
-
Rebuilding
As your skin naturally creates new collagen and elastin cells, they’re even healthier thanks to the proprietary peptides used in every Alastin formula. Over time, you’ll experience healthier cellular regeneration. So stay consistent and patient as you add Alastin to your daily routine!
-
Replenishing
With continued use, Alastin promotes the healthiest skin possible! Collagen and elastin are the building blocks of youthful, glowing skin, which is why our specialists love Alastin’s proven formulas. Tri-hex technology ensures that your commitment to skin care rewards users over time, but Alastin isn’t the only amazing brand on our shelves!
Epionce
Doctors trust doctors and that’s why Bliss confidently recommends Epionce for a wide array of concerns! Studies by Dr. Carl Thornfeldt truly put the clinical in these clinical skin care formulas. In OKC, our patients use Epionce’s barrier first approach to protect their biggest asset from the harshest conditions with the gentlest formulas available.
Every formula is paraben, sulfate, and gluten-free to ensure a gentle approach with total protection. Natural cholesterol, ceramides, botanicals, and multifactorial antioxidants work together to create a healthy barrier without harsh ingredients. Epionce is one of our top recommendations for patients who demand the best from their skin care in OKC. But there’s always a way to make your skin even better!
SkinBetter
Even the best skin could always be SkinBetter. That’s exactly why our specialists love the biotech used in every bottle we recommend from SkinBetter Science. By blending the best aspects of biotechnology and aesthetics, there’s no question why this is one of the fastest growing skin care brands in the US. Bliss is proud to be an authorized member of their exclusive professional network. But we’re even more excited to help our patients experience results every day!
With each new advancement, SkinBetter helps the biology of your skin’s microbiome from the inside out. Instead of solely focusing on concerns, our specialists can help you select the right formula based on 8 unique technology platforms. The flexibility and capabilities of SkinBetter’s formulas perfectly compliment our philosophy of thinking beyond the bottle when customizing your skin care regimen. Let’s dig into our top recommendations to overcome many common conditions!
Formulas for the Better
To find your ideal formula for skin care success, we always start with a consultation. This not only helps us get to know your unique needs, it helps us get to know each other better! For example, if you’re not an early riser, you probably won’t benefit from an extensive morning regimen or enjoy early treatment times.
We take more than just your conditions into consideration when talking about skin care in OKC. But to give you a taste of what’s in store at Bliss, check out our top recommendations based on common concerns we see every day!
Oily
For starters, a deep cleansing spa facial is a great initial treatment to regulate sebum production. As we look to eliminate common acne concerns, we recommend microneedling to clear and correct your skin’s complexion at the cellular level.
When it comes to skin care, each brand we carry has powerful cleansers—it really all comes down to your budget of time and money! Alastin’s Gentle Cleanser is an award-winning approach to clinical cleansing every day. For continued benefits, we recommend optimizing your moisturization with their Ultra Nourishing formula.
Dry
When it comes to defeating dryness, a customized facial is always a great place to start. For even deeper rejuvenation, our team may also recommend a gentle chemical peel to get rid of those dry, dull layers of skin.
Epionce’s milky lotion cleanser is always a great way to improve at home skin care in OKC for dry and sensitive types. To restore a natural balance throughout your skin, their Balancing Toner and Lite Lytic Tx work great together! Both products work to shape and improve your skin’s natural moisturization without potentially irritating ingredients!
Sensitive
For sensitive skin, we always recommend regular facials alongside natural ingredients like aloe and chamomile. But at Bliss, we go beyond the typical spa experience by also specializing in customized IV therapy. This route helps improve everything from energy levels to total hydration which results in healthy skin naturally!
To reduce your sensitivity outside the treatment room, we recommend SkinBetter’s Protect + Rejuvenate Regimen. Proper antioxidant protection paired with nightly retinoid rejuvenation result in healthier, protected skin through 4 advanced formulas working in tandem!
Balanced
Your best could always be better with Bliss! So even if you’re not concerned with any particular condition, we recommend relaxing spa facials for every patient. Alongside anti-aging treatments like wrinkle relaxers, and dermal fillers, taking care of your skin can help you face every day confidently!
To let your inner glow out confidently at home, Alastin’s HA IMMERSE Serum is one of the best daily hydrators we recommend every day! Alongside this lightweight formula, we also suggest layering in their HydraTint SPF 36 Sunscreen. This is a top recommendation for almost any skin type because it promotes a natural glow with industry leading protection against UVA/UVB rays.
