However, ‘skin care’ is not an airheaded expense. As corrective skin care specialists, we are advancing not only appearance, but the health of acceptable skin as well.”
One of the highlights from the Skin Care 2009 Meeting will be a breakout session titled Product Evaluations A Comprehensive Method of How To Look Beyond The Hype. This is an interactive course projected to discourse the individual range of home care product options accessible to the medical skin care specialist and in order ways for evaluating them. The discussion will be led by Sandra Adams and Denise Byrnes, skin care specialists and former SPSSCS board members, who currently work for companies that evolve and market skin care products.
“Good skin care is not determined by a product’s package or price point,” says Ms. Day. “Skin care specialists are not sales people. We desire our patients to purchase what is apropos for their skin, products that will effectively address their concerns and goals. This session is about how to evaluate a skin care product established on the accommodating and baneful ingredients in each product, and the effectiveness of their delivery method.”
