My Daughters and I Love Colorescience Makeup

Genesis • July 30, 2014

Is it really the beginning of August already? They say that time flies the older you get, and I certainly believe that it’s true. In the next few weeks our twins will become juniors in high school and Rachel, the oldest, will be an incoming freshman at Missouri State University in Springfield. We will have lots of back-to-school shopping and preparing for a year of living in the dorm. What a crazy couple of weeks it is going to be…

New makeup and skin care for my girls is definitely on our back-to-school shopping list. They tend to keep it pretty simple with their makeup: Skin Mattifying primer with salicylic acid, pressed mineral foundation, Clarifying Setting mist, and usually just a little bit of mascara. Colorescience is wonderful at concealing acne while still looking natural, letting their pretty teenage skin show through.

A terrible timeless teenage makeup trend has always been the dark black eyeliner. It seems like a rite of passage, beginning around the age of 13 or 14, heavily lining upper and lower lids. I can remember a day when I, too, was guilty of this look. I am definitely a fan of black eyeliner, but when heavily lining around both upper and lower lid, it tends to make your eyes look very small and closed. Teen makeup is better when it looks fresh and youthful. Enjoy this time in life – you will soon be grown and trying to regain your youth. Starting with a simple cleansing routine and mineral makeup with sun protection is a great start for teen girls or even preteen. We offer a tutorial to educate newbies on how to apply makeup and to review skin care basics. Remember to keep it simple and accentuate the positive. Enjoy your back-to-school shopping and look forward to a happy, healthy, great school year!

Repair & Refresh Your Skin

By Genesis • July 1, 2023
Are you tired of looking in the mirror and seeing the signs of aging, sun damage, or just the wear and tear of everyday life? Get ready to turn up the heat with Tixel, the skin resurfacing treatment that’s hotter than your morning coffee and twice as refreshing. This innovative treatment uses cutting-edge technology to rejuvenate your skin and leave you looking and feeling refreshed. So, what exactly is skin resurfacing? Essentially, it’s a process that removes the outer layers of your skin to reveal the healthier, more vibrant skin underneath. (Think of it like peeling a carrot.) This can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, and even acne scars. This is the best part – Tixel is non-invasive and has minimal downtime. Tixel uses heat to create tiny microchannels in the skin, which stimulate the body’s natural healing process and encourage the growth of new, healthy skin cells. Plus, because Tixel uses heat rather than lasers or chemicals, it’s a safer and more comfortable option. This method is less invasive and leads to less tissue damage, resulting in minimal downtime. Of course, it’s important to remember that Tixel is only part of the equation when it comes to healthy, glowing skin. To truly maintain those amazing results, you need to take good care of your skin at home. This includes using high-quality skincare products, avoiding excessive sun exposure, and staying hydrated. Think of Tixel as the hero of your skincare routine, and your at-home regimen as the trusty sidekick along with your Aesthetic Provider’s tips and tricks. Together, they’ll help you achieve your skincare goals.

Complement Your Natural Beauty

Cosmetic fillers are a great way to help you turn back time, when used correctly. Do you notice the person staring at you in the mirror has a few more lines than before? Are you seeing an image of your parents or grandparents looking back at you? Time and the aging process is something we can’t stop, but we can help slow it with cosmetic fillers. Cosmetic fillers are a great way to enhance areas on the face or simply put back volume that time took away. They can volumize the cheeks, sharpen the chin and jawlines, volumize the lips, and soften unwanted wrinkles. Done in the right hands, cosmetic fillers will help bring back a younger, more youthful version of you! Injecting filler is an art that requires precision, ongoing training, and an eye for detail. For the best results, it is important that you choose an injector who is highly educated and stays current with the latest techniques. It is important to remember that fillers only replace volume; they don’t stop the movement of the face, which le

A Natural Approach to Menopause

The good news is bioidentical hormone replacement can relieve these symptoms and even provide protection against chronic health conditions. Not to be confused with synthetic hormones that come with the risk of blood clots and cancers, bioidentical hormones are naturally made from plant-based materials and have little to no increased risk of cardiovascular disease or cancer, but instead are shown by research studies to protect against these conditions and can be used long term without an increase in risk.

Our Sweet 16

By Genesis • May 4, 2023
It’s Sunsational month again at Genesis! We are looking forward to and getting geared up for our 16th annual Sunsational Celebration Open House on May 18th. It’s hard to believe how many of these we have put on as a company. Every year we are so grateful to all who celebrate with us. This year also marks, for me, 16 years of being a client of Genesis. As some of you know, Dr. Prasad and Barb are my parents, so I was exposed to great skincare products and sun protection from a young age. As I have grown up, and when I began my career at Genesis eight years ago, I tried even more of the services and products we offer. I can’t say enough how much they have changed my life. Everything I have tried has been fabulous, from vein care and Biote Hormone Replacement to routine facials and Botox. At 31, I feel younger than I used to and feel more confident in my skin than ever before. I have grown up around a lot of my Genesis team, and we have added some newer faces as the years have passed. They are amazing! I feel privileged to work with such a solid and passionate group of people. I think this place is pretty magical and you can feel it when you come through our doors. So, I invite you to hang out with us, meet the team, and experience all the fabulousness Genesis offers this month. Find something that will help you feel better or be more confident. You deserve it!
