Lori's Blog & Newsletters
MY NEW BUSINESS AND LOCATION:
2022 has brought a new type of growth for me in my career. I have formed my own business, Healthy Skin By Lori, LLC located within the Sola Salon Studios at 2045 Mackenzie Way, Cranberry Township, PA 16066. This Sola is located a minute or two off of I-79 Exit 78, the 228/Cranberry/Mars exit. I am looking forward to welcoming you to my new space!
Easy Directions: If traveling North on I-79, take Exit 28-228/Cranberry/Mars. Immediately get into the far right hand lane turning onto the MSA Thruway/Cranberry Springs (very short) and bear right to Cranberry Springs. Proceed to the first street, Mackenzie Way. Make a right on Mackenzie Way. Proceed after the first stop sign and you will see Sola Salon Studios on your left. (In between Lazy Boy Furniture and Anthony's Brick Pizza. Dick's Sporting Goods is to the right of Lazy Boy Furniture.)
If already on Route 228, turn onto Cranberry Springs Drive near the Dick's sign. Turn left onto Mackenzie Way to Sola.

TANNING BEDS: PLEASE DO NOT get that "one time" tanning bed session so you don't "burn at the beach". Did you know that ONE TIME use of an indoor tanning bed increases your risk of Melanoma by 20%? The risks go up from there. The Month of May is SKIN CANCER AWARENESS MONTH. See this quick YouTube video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1N4KIbwk8Y

I often suggest to my clients that if their dermatologist advises to watch a particular mole or if they are awaiting their appointment to get one checked, to take a picture of it on their phone or other device. That way they can keep tabs on it with the ABCDEs of skin cancer in mind. Contact your physician with any of the following: Asymmetry (one half does not match the other half), Borders (uneven edges), Color (variety of colors like brown, tan or black but even becoming red, white or blue), Diameter (grows larger than the size of a pencil eraser, but sometimes can even be smaller too when first detected), Evolving (changes in shape, color, elevation or other trait, or if starts itching, bleeding, or crusting.)

September 2017 Oncology news: I just returned from Denver, Colorado after completing a refresher oncology training course with Becky Kuehn of Oncology Spa Solutions. I had a wonderful class with 12 amazing women from various parts of the U.S. who were experiencing this training for the first time. After completing and passing my latest exam, I am re-certified through 2019 to help clients journeying through cancer and thereafter! If there was ever a group of individuals needing and deserving specialized skin care and some extra TLC, it is these men and women! SUN SAFETY-PROTECT THE SKIN YOU ARE IN SHOULD YOU INVEST IN YOUR SKIN? THE BENEFITS OF VITAMIN A by Dr. Ben Johnson - Founder & Formulator - Osmosis Skincare Ask any professional in the industry and they will tell you vitamin A is an essential part of a skincare protocol. This is true, but only for 1 type of vitamin A; stabilized retinaldehyde. There is no proven research that shows that retinol (trans or cis), retinyl palmitate, retinyl acetate or any other form actually stimulates collagen. Even retinoic acid (Retin A), which stimulates collagen can be difficult on the skin. Retinoic acid has been shown to thin the dermis by 18% after one years use. Retinaldehyde is the only research proven A that stimulates collagen and does not thin the skin! The only one! Osmosis made this powerful age-reversing ingredient liposome delivered so that we can get up to 600% more of it into the skin. Equally as important, we included additional collagen stimulators to feed the skin and maximize your collagen making potential. Our vitamin A products are not sun-sensitizing because of the technology we use. They are a must have for your clients.
