Q: What's your biggest skin concern?

Bree: I would have to say my biggest skin concern is acne. My skin can be very reactive depending on what I eat and what products I use. Acneic skin can be hard to treat and what I have learned is that consistency is key. A consistent at-home routine along with professional-grade treatments is what works best for me.

Q: What’s your usual skin regimen at home?

Bree: I try to keep my skincare routine very simplistic. I am always using a PIH inhibitor such as cysteamine or hydroquinone. I alternate between the two depending on what time of year it is and what corrective treatments I am receiving. I use a gentle cleanser like the isClinical Cleansing Complex along with my Chloe Facial Brush every day for gentle exfoliation. I use various serums like the Brightening Serum, Brightening Complex, Active Serum, and Pro Heal Serum which contains retinol, salicylic acid, vitamin c, arbutin, & Kojic acid. I love a creamy hydrating moisturizer & the Reparative Moisture Emulsion is my absolute favorite. It leaves your skin so silky and moisturized. I must finish my routine with a bomb-absorbing spf like Extreme Protect Spf 30. It doesn’t leave a white cast on the skin which is an absolute deal breaker for me when it comes to an SPF. For my weekly targeted treatment I exfoliate with the Dirty Diana and apply an active enzyme or light peel like the Active Peel System that will help keep my acne to a minimum If I do get a breakout I immediately apply a Pimple Snatcha. I keep my snatchas with me at all times because breakouts pop up ANYTIME & ANYWHERE. The key to creating the routine for your skin type is studying the products' ingredients and insuring they are targeting your specific skin concerns. 

Q: What is the most popular product that your sell?

Bree: The most popular product by far is the Pimple Snatchas. People love them because they help to heal acne breakouts by delivering targeted ingredients with micro-dart technology. The micro-darts delve deep into the acne pustule. This will increase cell turnover which leads to a decreased healing time. Pimple Snatchas are the best seller because they provide an improvement for your breakouts in 8 hours or less. 

Q: How long have you been in the skincare industry?

Bree: I have been in the skincare industry since I was in the 5th grade. HAHA. But seriously, I have been a part of the industry since then because that’s when I started to have acne breakouts. I’ve tried it all when it comes to purchasing products. I have shopped at all the drug stores, grocery stores, vegan lines, & everything in between. It wasn’t until I became an esthetician in 2018 that I learned that it is all about the ingredients. I was able to get my hands on quality products that actually worked. I vowed to myself that I would share all the knowledge that I have acquired to help girls & women just like me. Skincare Diary provides women with at-home products that mimic what you would receive in an esthetician's treatment room. Whatever your skin goals are, it starts at home with the products and routine you develop. Now that I am an Aesthetic Nurse I am able to provide medical-grade treatments in the office that will enhance your routine and expedite your results.
