I think if you ph test the product mixed, then go to a state board meeting with your results, I think you would have a great case!  Contact me via e-mail: lisa@skinscriptrx.com and I could test the requested mixtures and let you know what the ph is.

awesome! thank you Lisa!! I wonder if mixing the other enzymes with the coconut would lower their pH a bit, too.... enough to satisfy State Board?!

hmmmmm!!!!! :-)

Gina - the chemist replied regarding your ph question of mixing the Coconut enzyme and the lactic.  Yes, it will bring down the ph, but it depends on how much of each product you use.  You could use ph test papers to measure the ph if you wanted to know.  Ph test papers are available on Amazon.com if you really wanted to know.

The protocol for the dermafile is to use it on dry skin; however, I like to use it during the last minute the enzyme is on the skin.  I use it right on top of the enyzme, ever so gently (no pressure applied), and the results are amazing.  Really, really soft skin with no irritation.  It's enzyme and mechanical exfoliation, which I love.

Trish- you can check out the website: dermafile.com to read up on it.

I bought mine from shellyhancock.com

You would need to check your state laws on manual exfoliation. If you can do microdermabrasion, you can do the dermafile.

I am loving these products and all the ways to use them!  I am very curious about this dermafile..where do I get info/training?  I also want to make sure it is my scope of practice for NY - anyone know??

THANK YOU Lisa!! I can't wait to hear what your chemist says!!

I hope you had a GREAT vacation!! :-D

 

Katrina- I am doing a Dermafile Treatment that is a stand-alone service, and charging $50 per session. WAYY cheaper than microdermabrasion, but still a decent price for me as a new esty/business owner- about a 30-40 minute service all told... I do a cleanse and a seaweed mask as well....

any ideas on that??

Katrina - glad to hear you like the derma file.  I think that is a nifty tool.  Pricing is difficult - it depends on how you use it in your treatment.  For me, it's about a 1-2 minute polishing on top of the enzyme.  If you use it dry and spend 10-15 minutes with it, of course if would be an additional charge.  Does any one else have comments on how much to charge?

Hi all - I've been on vacation, so I apologize for the untimely response.

 

Gina:  Regarding your question about the new ph by mixing the Coconut enzyme and Lactic peel, I have asked my chemist this question.  I will get back to you.

Regarding your question about the glycolic cleanser on dry, aging skin:  Absolutely!  I use it 2 times a week and it keeps away the fine lines, it gives my skin a fresh glow because I am shedding dull skin cells, and it minimizes my hormonal chin breakouts as long as I'm consistent about using it 2 times per week.  I use the Ageless Hydrating Serum every day to ensure I have proper hydration.

 

I love the idea of Glycolic cleanser after waxing!

 

Regarding the idea of a retinol scrub in the mild acne kit, please add it in!!!!  Putting kits together was a tough job - it's hard to fit every skin type with a kit, so please, please customize for your clients.

Curious- why is the retinol scrub NOT included in the mild acne kit?
