An enlightening
two-day
seminar:
The
importance of the modern beauty therapist and aesthetician possessing
basic cosmetic chemistry knowledge is becoming increasingly evident
with modern body and skin care cosmetics rapidly encroaching upon the
medical field with an ever-increasing range of truly effective
products.
In
addition to requiring accurate skin diagnosis skills, the therapist of
the future will need to know with a degree of accuracy, what the
effects of prescribed products and treatments will be when
administered to specific skin conditions.
Some individuals suffer one or more of a wide array
of adverse reactions to cosmetic products ranging from mild irritation
to acne-like eruptions and dermatitis. With basic cosmetic chemistry
knowledge, the therapist can avoid potential adverse reactions caused
by specific chemicals applied to specific skin conditions, in addition
to helping identify the causes of client’s skin irritations.
In this course, we will examine the ingredient
most commonly found in modern cosmetic products, and explain their
actions and roles in the formulations. We will also relate them to
the effect they may have on specific conditions of the skin. Make-up
is not included in this program, as this is the realm of chemistry
for the beautician.
The seminar is presented by International skin treatment expert Florence
Barrett-Hill, a respected industry educator, author, researcher and
practitioner with over 30 years of experience to share.
