How quickly can I expect to see results?
Depending upon your age, skin condition, and the products used previously on your skin, visible results will vary greatly - however, you'll be able to feel the results almost immediately. It's important to remember that wrinkles, sun damage, dehydration, and enlarged or clogged pores didn't appear overnight. L'Bri products are corrective, working from the inside out to restore and repair the skin. While many people report positive changes in the appearance of their skin within the first week, it will take four to six weeks for your skin to experience the maximum benefits from L'Bri.
How do I know which trio is right for me?
L'Bri has a totally customizable line of skin care products that can be tailored to your specific skin type. Click here to learn which skin type you are and which trio is right for you!
Why is it so important to use the 3 step program completely
and regularly?
There is no single product that can accomplish the functions of these three products combined:
- If you use
cleanser and moisturizer and eliminate the freshener, the skin becomes
more receptive to bacteria and can cause blemishes.
- If you use
the freshener and moisturizer, skipping the cleanser, the skin is
not thoroughly cleansed and true moisturizing will not take place.
- If you use the cleanser and freshener and omit the moisturizer, then the skin is robbed of essential moisture and moisture-retaining elements it needs to be smooth, clear, and younger-looking.
You must use the full three steps of the Trio twice a day, every day to see full visible results from L'Bri Pure n' Natural.
Why do I have to add water over my face after the
moisturizer?
It is essential to add water after you apply any L'Bri moisturizer. Click here for the full story!
What if I want to continue using my old products along
with L'Bri?
L'Bri products are synergistic. Synergistic means "working together for total superior effect". L'Bri products are formulated to be used together. Each step enhances the affects of the next step and so on. It is never a good idea to hodge podge (mix) skin care products. All skin care products must be used together for optimum results. Hodge podging is another reason why many people develop confused skin which results in a variety of different types of skin challenges.
An individual shows an allergic reaction to a particular product, food, etc., when contact with the substance results in severe swelling, redness, and/or itching. If an individual has an allergy or sensitivity to a product it will usually show up instantaneously following the use of the product.
If you react with an allergic reaction to ANY skin care product, discontinue use immediately. Do not continue to use products you are sensitive to. This could strengthen your allergy and threaten your health.
Are L'Bri products allergy tested?
Yes. Our skin care products are subjected to allergy testing under strictest guidelines. The allergy testing of L'Bri products is performed on people who are known to be allergic to most other cosmetic products.
Most customers even with the most sensitive skin can use L'Bri Pure n' Natural. Occaisionally, I do find someone that is allergic to aloe. This is rare, but it has been known to happen. If you react with an allergic reaction to ANY skin care product, discontinue use immediately. Do not continue to use products you are sensitive to. This could strengthen your allergy and threaten your health.
Will I break out once I begin using L'Bri?
Keep in mind that the L'Bri skin care products are corrective products that really work. These products are very concentrated and achieve visible results by healing damaged skin tissue, allowing the natural radiance of the skin to shine through.
Most clients who begin using L'Bri products have skin which need corrective care. As imbedded impurities in the skin begin to surface, you may experience a blemish or two as your skin begins its healing process. These blemishes never last more than a few days, and you'll then experience a smoother, clearer complexion. The skin is merely beginning to correct itself. Depending on how damaged and clogged the skin was before using L'Bri will determine how much of a correction you will experience.
It takes a full 30 days to see the full visible results of L'Bri Pure n' Natural. During this time your skin will flush out imbedded impurities and begin to heal. As your skin heals, the texture and clarity will improve. After 30 days your skin will feel like new again - fresh, smooth, and hydrated.
Don't be confused by this temporary flushing out period with an allergic reaction.
This is a wonderful sign! Most people will have a certain amount of dead cell buildup on their skin. At the age of 35 your skin's cell renewal rate begins to slow down. Aloe is a natural exfoliate and helps the skin to "shed" it's old worn out skin cells. Some people may notice a little flaking of the skin around the second or third week of using the product. This condition unusually only lasts a dew days. Try increasing the use of the scrub and facial masque during this time, and the end result will be a smoother, fresher looking complexion.
What role does pH play for the skin?
The term pH refers to the measurement of the acids and alkali in the skin. The amount of acid in the skin determines the skin's resistance to bacteria.
Skin is naturally slightly acidic, measuring about 6 on the pH scale. Nature does this for good reason - to protect the skin against bacteria. When the skin is in balance it is healthier, more attractive, and has fewer blemishes. Acne, allergies, and other skin problems are associated with skin that is "off-balance" In addition to good skin care, proper diet, cleanliness, regularity and "peace of mind" all play a part in maintain a healthy, well-balanced skin.
Why is soap so bad for the skin?
All soap is made with fats, waxes, and tallows, which leave behind a residue. You've seen this residue in your soap dish, bathtub, or shower stall. That same filmy residue is left behind on your skin every time you cleanse with a soap-based product. Over time, this residue becomes imbedded in your skin.
Not only that, but one of the greatest enemies to the skin's pH balance is soap because it makes the skin alkaline - and thus more receptive to bacteria. Since soap is highly alkaline (and extremely drying) it should never be used on the complexion. With the L'Bri cleansers, you can achieve a thorough cleansing of the surface skin and the pores without drying the skin or disrupting the skin's pH balance.
Dehydration, the natural loss of moisture during aging, is the main cause of wrinkles in the skin. The skin is composed of two layers: the outer layer being the epidermis and deeper layers, the dermis. Both are supported by inner layers of cells and fatty tissue, that give the skin support, firmness, and contour. As dehydration occurs, the fatty tissues lose moisture and begin to shrivel. Without the firm, plump fatty tissues for support the surface layers wrinkle, and the skin begins to look older.
Keep in mind that many other factors can contribute to the development of wrinkles. Sudden loss of weight, illness, stress, fatigue, exposure to the sun, smoking and improper facial care also play a significant role in the production of wrinkles.
What products should I use if I have fine lines?
Time Erase is the best product to use on fine lines and wrinkles. This is an Alpha Hydroxy, slow release serum that works deep in skin tissue to stimulate cell renewal. By encouraging the cells to divide, this product is actually making new skin grow. Fine lines, age spots, and scars can all fade away with the help of Time Erase.
Another good wrinkle buster is the Smooth n' Firm Eye Repair Gel. This soothing gel really helps reduce puffiness and gently firm up skin. Try it over your upper lip or around your eyes and see if it makes a difference today!
Which products should I use if I have scars?
Scars are no match for the powerful effects of Time Erase. This is an Alpha Hydroxy, slow release serum that works deep in skin tissue to stimulate cell renewal. By encouraging the cells to divide, this product is actually making new skin grow. Fine lines, age spots, and scars can all fade away with the help of Time Erase.
You can also try using the Pure Aloe Barbadensis Jelly on scars. The unique, healing qualities within the gel help to speed the healing of damaged skin.
Which products should I use if I have age spots?
Age spots are definitely a telltale sign of aging. To combat these unwanted badges of age you should invest in Time Erase. This is an Alpha Hydroxy, slow release serum that works deep in skin tissue to stimulate cell renewal. By encouraging the cells to divide, this product is actually making new skin grow. Fine lines, age spots, and scars can all fade away with the help of Time Erase.
Which products should I use if I have sagging skin?
Maxifirm is our firming product of choice. This revolutionary formula is a scientific breakthrough from the L'Bri laboratories that "takes on" the unwanted signs of aging. This unique skin treatment stimulates fiberblast cells that product protein and converts them into skin-thickening, line smoothing collagen. It will leave skin looking firmer, tighter, and younger-looking.
Another wonderful product for this condition is the facial masque. It is sometimes called the facial lift in a bottle because the results are so dramatic. Try it on half of your face to see just how much of a lift you get!
Which product stimulates the most collagen?
Time Erase is our best collagen stimulator. Lack of collagen makes the skin look thin and saggy. Time Erase will give you the thick, plumpness you may be after. Really all of our anti-aging products (Maxifirm, Dermaplex A, and Time Erase) are all collagen stimulators, but Time Erase is the best.
Pores are the outer openings of the glands that carry oil, moisture and waste matter to the skin's surface. They also help control body temperature. When we're in a cold environment, tiny muscles close the pores, helping retain body heat. When the temperate rises, the pores open and secrete moisture, which evaporate and creates "cold", to help the body maintain its normal temperature. In addition to these vital processes, 90% of our breathing is done through the pores, so it is extremely important to keep these openings clean.
When pore secretions "dry up" in the neck of the pore, the pore becomes clogged and new secretions accumulate behind the obstruction, causing an enlargement. When the obstruction is removed, the pore will return to normal size. However, if the pore neck has been stretched open for too long, the pore will remain large for a week or two, and gradually close, according to nature.
There are also other external factors that can aggravate this condition. Today, more than ever before, our skin is exposed to dirt, grime, and other pollutants from our environment. Unless the surface skin is thoroughly cleansed, these elements can remain on the skin surface, further causing pores to enlarge.
Improper skin care can also add to the problem. Cleansing the skin with heavy creams or moisturizing with products containing waxes, oils, and other fillers can leave a residue to collect in the pores.
What products should I use if I have enlarged pores?
Using the trio properly (all three products, twice a day, everyday) will dramatically improve an enlarged pore issue. You might also want to try using the Facial Scrub three times a week to give your skin the exfoliation it needs. Another trick that I like to use is the Smooth n' Firm Eye Gel. I find that even the mammoth pores over my husbands nose shrank down to normal size after only a week of using the eye gel on them.
What products should I use if I have rosecea?
Rosecea can be a very hard thing to live with. Our faces are the first thing people see when they look at us and because of that most people strive to keep a clear, clean complexion. When a person suffers from rosecea they can feel like a social outcast. The symptoms of rosecea are
- Redness on the cheeks, nose, chin, or forehead.
- Small blood vessels visible under the skin on the face.
- Bumps or pimples on the face.
- Irritated or watery eyes.
Rosecea is triggered by environmental factors such as diet, sun exposure, and stress. It can also be enflamed by the use of skin care products that sting or burn. L'Bri Pure n' Natural skin care products are not harmful to the skin, and contain no alcohol or acetone to cause further rosecea inflammation.
In order to best treat your skin you should still pick your trio according to your skin type. Click here for help knowing which skin type you are and which trio you should use.
The best moisturizer for a rosecea sufferer would be either the Intense Moisturizer or the Oil Free. The Gentle Moisturizer has extracts of Evening Primrose which can enflame the condition.
Also when using the Masque, do not use the cleanser or the freshener. Really the best concentrated cleanser to use with Rosecea is the Peel.
When you first begin to use the L'Bri trio, only use the freshener at night. This will allow your skin to slowly adapt to the deep cleaning effect of L'Bri.
If your skin becomes inflamed use the Smooth n' Firm Eye Repair Gel over the areas to soothe and cool the redness.
