With new technologies and research methodologies emerging every year, the skincare industry has undergone a significant transformation. Organic products are being developed by the industry, and they will play an important part in long-term skincare. The Skin microbiome is one of the primary and important upcoming skincare regimens that will undoubtedly have a significant progression in the Indian beauty industry this year. Microbiomes are made up of trillions of microscopic bacteria that live on the surface of our skin. Though it may appear repulsive, both good and harmful bacteria play a crucial role in keeping our skin healthy, clear, and bright. mylifescoop

A national survey conducted by the George Washington University (GW) School of Medicine and Health Sciences (SMHS) and University of Maryland researchers found that patients with different dermatologic conditions are willing to try medical cannabis products (MCPs) as potential treatments for their conditions.

“MCPs, which are cannabis or cannabis-derived products that contain tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, and/or cannabidiol, known as CBD, are more available now than they ever have been,” explained lead author Samuel Yeroushalmi, a fourth-year MD student at GW SMHS. “However, data supporting use and information regarding product quality assurance is limited, particularly when it comes to dermatologic conditions. We wanted to take a closer look at how patients both feel about and use MCPs as part of their treatment plans.”

More than 500 patients over 18 years were asked about their opinions related to MCPs. Results found that 17.6% of patients used an over-the-counter (OTC) cannabis product to

The new year is the perfect time to check in with your skin-care routine and reassess how your habits may be helping (or harming) your skin.

That said, resolutions are easy to make on January 1, and more difficult to sustain throughout the year. It’s hard to change behavior, especially when it comes to our health, according to findings from a study published in July 2016 in Public Health. Every year, Harvard Health Publishing and other outlets release articles such as “Seven Steps for Making Your New Year’s Resolutions Stick” — because it’s difficult.

Harvard and others recommend breaking your goals into small steps that you can easily tackle. This will allow you to get some wins and feel the progress of your resolution. Additionally, when you hit these small milestones, you should celebrate with something tangible, like a medal, a gift, or some other form of

Lubriderm, a dermatologist developed skin care brand, today announced the launch of the Skin Scholarship sponsored by Lubriderm, in collaboration with the National Hispanic Health Foundation (NHHF). The scholarship will award a total of $150,000—10 individual scholarships of $15,000 each—to full times United States Hispanic (USH) dermatology residents and physician associate dermatology students, according to the press release.¹ 

The goal of the sponsored scholarship, according to Lubriderm, is to help increase USH representation and accessibility in the dermatology field. Only 5% of US dermatologists identify as Hispanic.² A recent survey conducted by Lubriderm also showed that more than a quarter of USH consumers have never visited a dermatologist.

“We believe that all consumers should have access to a dermatologist for optimal skin health, yet many health disparities and inequities in the field still exist,” said Suzanne Goldstein, senior director of marketing for Lubriderm. “While it will take time,

When you can’t get a facial or don’t have the budget for a spa appointment, skincare masks are a great alternative to maintain your skin. And even if you do get facials regularly, why not treat yourself in between with at-home mask treatments? Depending on your skin needs, masks can deliver an extra boost of hydration, a quick detox, help exfoliate your skin and so much more.

So, why use skincare masks? “The function of skincare face masks is to create an environment where active ingredients can penetrate and treat the skin. Choosing the product with the correct targeted ingredients for any skin concerns you might have is essential,” says Nalbone. For this reason, Nalbone recommends picking a focus area when it comes to your skin needs and then
