My Special Hangover Facial

Did you know that after a few drinks your perception, body and personal boundaries are not the only things being affected? Your skin is being affected by your Friday night happy hour and bottomless mimosas. Skin is the largest organ in the human body. Your skin protects your muscles, internal organs and bones. It allows you to feel and react to heat and cold using blood to regulate your body temperature. Your skin is a huge part of you and your body, therefore, you should take care of it.

Do you ever suffer from hangovers? Your skin suffers too! Here at DePiano Skin, I offer the "hangover facial" which I created for tired, dehydrated, and stressed out skin - caused by a night of partying. I specifically designed it to be comforting, nurturing and relaxing for both you and your skin. The hangover facial is incredibly hydrating and is pain free. Using exfoliation and no extractions to revive your "hung over" skin will de-puff your eye area, hydrate and smooth your skin, and give it a healthy glow.  Your hangover facial will include a five minute facial massage followed by a fifteen minute four-layer mask which hydrates your skin. The final touches include LED lights, which reduce redness, blotchiness, puffiness and contour your face. To create a deep state of relaxation, incredible aromatherapy is used. At the end of your facial, you and your skin will leave feeling well rested and hydrated. You will be ready for another night out!

My special hangover facial was featured on a segment of My Fox LA channel 11. To see the segment, visit my YouTube page. Call or email me to book your next hangover facial. Your skin will appreciate it.

Alkaline your Body for Better Skin

Alkaline-forming foods vs. acid-forming foods. Your skin is always better when your body is in a Alkaline state!

As you may have already guessed, most of the foods that people eat today -- refined grains, pasteurized dairy, conventional meat, vegetable oils, artificial sweeteners, and processed sugars -- are acid-forming foods. Rather than contribute to the roughly 80 percent alkaline-forming, 20 percent acid-forming diet, which some experts in the field believe to be ideal, a diet composed primarily of these acid-forming foods inhibits nerve function and damages cells.


"All natural foods contain both acid and alkaline-forming elements," says the Conscious Living Center. "In some, acid-forming elements dominate; in others, alkaline-forming elements dominate. According to modern biochemistry, it is not the organic matter of foods that leave acid or alkaline residues in the body. The inorganic matter (sulfur, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium and calcium) determines the acidity or alkalinity of the body fluids."

According to several different resources on acid and alkaline-forming foods, some of the best alkaline forming foods include:

• Cucumbers
• Chia seeds (Chia Seeds are loaded with all Omegas)
• Figs
• Sprouts
• Dates
• String beans

 • Root vegetables (radishes, carrots, beets, turnips, rutabagas)
• Almonds
• Avocados
• Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage)
• Fresh coconuts
• Raw, grass-fed milk
• Leafy greens (kale, spinach, Swiss chard, turnip greens)
• Raisins
• Lemons
• Cayenne pepper
• Wheatgrass
• Melons (watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew)

These are just a few of the most alkaline foods available, and there are many more that you can see at the charts linked below this article. But this will give you an idea of the types of foods you should focus more heavily on incorporating into your diet, while decreasing consumption of acid-forming foods like alcohol, breads, feedlot-based meats, sugar, and coffee.

Dry Oils written by Deborah DePiano

Sometimes referred to as clean oil are best for those who want the moisturizing effects of an oil with the greasy residue. "Regular body creams take longer to absorb. But dry oil dries quickly without any oily remains." say skin care expert Deborah DePiano/owner of Los Angeles DePiano Skin. Dry oils work best on normal to dry skin types-if your skin is extremely dry or tends to get ashy it may not provide the long-term moisture that a thicker cream can.
