Of the future’. I have been very honest for a long time with you all…I have NEVER had any kind of Botox, lasers, procedures…in fact I have not had a professional facial in at least 12 years. (I have a bit of a ‘facial’ phobia. Long story!)

The technology behind ZIIP is groundbreaking: tiny, energetic currents are pushed into the skin through positively and negatively charged discs located on the bottom of the ZIIP. So for example, envision a battery where there is a positive and a negative end. The energy runs between the two polarizing ends and into whatever it’s in contact with giving it life; in this case, the skin. When used regularly, the ZIIP will help leave skin revived, refreshed and lifted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s basically an electrical facial in the palm of your hand. The device uses nanocurrents and microcurrents to communicate with your skin cells, increasing their effectiveness, prompting them to heal, and encouraging them to make an abundance of collagen and elastin. The result is healthy, lifted, glowing skin that gets better over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eZIIP Beauty\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(which you can buy from\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/knockoutbeauty.com\/collections\/beauty-tools\/products\/ziip\"\u003eKnockoutBeauty.com for $495\u003c\/a\u003e) includes the Ziip beauty device and 80ml.

The Golden Conductive Gel is a treatment serum with masque-like concentrations of bio placenta, growth hormones, hematite, and gold, which is highly conductive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe device was created by lifelong friends Melanie Simon and mechanical and product development engineer David Mason. Simon, a renowned electrical esthetician and entrepreneur, developed ZIIP as a way to share her coveted in-office nanocurrent expertise with the world and make the technology accessible at home. Simon has been recognized and prominently featured in media throughout the world. She is a well-respected expert in the skincare industry and has practices on the east and west coasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere’s an app that you download and Melanie walks you through everything you need to know and you can choose from a variety of treatments that best meet your needs: pigment, acne, puffiness…there’s nine treatments to pick from (ranging from 2 minutes – 12 (whatever you have time for) and all you have to do is load up the app on your phone, pick the treatment and it syncs your device so you’re ready to roll!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the treatment is four minutes long, then the video will mimic the treatment verbatim stroke by stroke.

Now, multiply that by years.

Most electrotherapy falls under four main treatment types: Faradic, Galvanic, high frequency and microcurrent. The ZIIP specifically uses microcurrents to stimulate ATP production. In fact, the ZIIP’s special cocktail of nano and microcurrents can increase ATP levels up to 500 percent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a very basic level, ATP is a chemical compound responsible for converting everything we consume into usable energy. It’s also an essential driving force of cellular processes such as the production of lipids and proteins, collagen and elastin included. (In case you forgot, collagen is the main structural protein making up connective tissue, including skin and cartilage, and fellow protein elastin is responsible for the resilience and and structure of skin.) Because your body cannot store unused ATP, the effects of the ZIIP are cumulative, becoming apparent after regular use. By kicking ATP production into overdrive on a weekly basis, the ZIIP encourages your body to produce all the collagen and elastin it needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBesides firming and wrinkle-busting effects resulting from the ZIIP’s stimulation of collagen and elastin production, the device also aids in lymphatic drainage, provides spot treatment of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hypebae.com\/tags\/acne\" ga-on=\"click\" ga-event-category=\"internal links\" ga-event-action=\"clicks_from_editorial_article\" ga-event-label=\"https:\/\/hypebae.com\/tags\/acne\" data-ol-has-click-handler=\"\"\u003eacne\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand curbs the production of pigment responsible for dark spots.

Though I can’t tell if my face has actually become more defined, my skin certainly feels tighter, a statement I realize is vague yet accurately describes the post-ZIIP-ing sensation. Undeniably though, my skin is clearer and dewier. With a few passes of the ZIIP, any burgeoning breakouts are curbed overnight.

It feels like a slight sting or prickle — nothing unbearable, but certainly noticeable. Additionally, some of the stronger treatments such as Instant Gratification and Lymph \u0026amp; Lift can cause involuntary muscle contraction, a common side effect that, while strange to experience, isn’t harmful and doesn’t last longer than the length of the treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI would recommend the ZIIP to anyone looking to replace or augment regular facials with an at-home device. I’ve found it especially effective for breakouts, but anyone who suffers from serious acne should definitely consult a dermatologist before purchasing. At the end of the day, it’s a matter of personal preference that determines whether the ZIIP’s hefty price tag is worth its long-term benefits.

First, try to wash morning and night — always start your routine by washing your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds and dry with a clean hand towel. Second, if you have a toner, allow your skin to be exfoliated to the maximum extent and also get all the anti-bacterial effects of your toner. To do this, let is sit on your face and absorb for a few minutes before putting anything else on your skin. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLast, try using a creme like\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Dr. Rogers Restore Face Cream (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dermstore.com\/product_RESTORE+Face+Cream_82991.htm\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDr. Rogers Restore Face Cream\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e($72), [which provides] heavy moisture for dry climates, or Bioderma's\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Sensibio AR Cream (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dermstore.com\/product_Sensibio+AR+Cream_72248.htm\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSensibio AR Cream\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e($25) or\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Sensibio Light Cream (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dermstore.com\/product_Sensibio+Light+Cream_72250.htm\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSensibio Light Cream\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e($20) for lightweight moisture in more humid areas.

The more consistency, the more our electrical currents stimulate a naturally-occurring chemical called Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). ATP is stored energy, released when you need it.

The nanocurrent is also said to aid in the production of collagen. Another version of the treatment that uses an antioxidant, is said to make the skin glow.

A pungent smell and\/or skin irritation are signs that it’s time to toss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"subheader mb-1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShelf Life of Common Skincare Products\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGenerally speaking, you should toss closed skincare products after one year and open products after six months, says celebrity facialist and eponymous skincare line founder \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/joannavargas.com\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJoanna Vargas\u003c\/a\u003e. In fact, when you open a product may be even more important than the expiration date. An airless pump is much better than a jar, but, even in airless packaging, oxygen starts to get to the product, says aesthetician and ZIIP co-founder \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/melaniesimonskincare.com\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMelanie Simon\u003c\/a\u003e. She prioritizes open date over expiration date, smelling her products “just like food” and looking to see if they are separating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you first open a product, pay attention to the consistency. If you notice it is separated or clumpy, Simon says to contact the brand. Similarly, if you’ve had the product for a long time, notice how the formula looks before using. “If it starts to have a foggy appearance or something with a vitamin C is changing color dramatically, it is no longer good to use,” she says.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith that in mind, below are some general rules of them when it comes to the shelf life of skincare products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"overline mb-1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHELF LIFE OF SUNSCREEN\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf ever there was a case for paying attention to the expiration date, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aedit.com\/aedition\/how-to-apply-sunscreen-and-not-miss-a-spot\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003esunscreen\u003c\/a\u003e is it. Dr. Frank says that, once your SPF is opened, it becomes less effective as time goes on. Robinson agrees and notes that you should be careful with sunscreen products because, if those expire, you are more likely to get over exposed to damaging sun rays. Simon says that she typically uses a sunblock for six months after opening. “If it is more than a year old, I will only use it if it’s the only SPF I have — when I am absolutely desperate,” she says.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"overline mb-1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHELF LIFE OF MOISTURIZER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCremes can be tricky because there are so many types, Simon notes. Some creams in jars, even when brand new, naturally separate. Simon says to use a Q-tip or cream applicator to stir the formula. “I also like to shake my bottles or jars of moisturizer almost every time I use a product,” she shares. “Especially now, skincare lines are getting away from chemicals that keep their products emulsified and preserved longer.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"overline mb-1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHELF LIFE OF SERUM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimon advises using a serum for up to eight months after opening. “If you’re using your serum properly, you really should be through it by that point,” she says. But there is a bit of leeway. “If you open and use consistently and it pushes three months past expiration, I believe it’s perfectly fine,” she adds.

Alongside a former Silicon Valley engineer, Simon created the ZIIP. It’s a small, handheld device that uses nano and microcurrent technology to encourage circulation, healing, and collagen production, among other benefits. ZIIP syncs with the app when hovered over a phone, automatically opening a video of Simon teaching your chosen program (which range from acne clearing to pigmentation reduction to an “instant gratification” face sculpt). On contact with your skin, the device emits a tingling sensation, vibrating when it’s ready to move to the next spot on your face and beeping to mark the halfway point.

But for people who don’t have the luxury of visiting Simon regularly, there is hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tagline\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0413\/4230\/4405\/files\/woman-made-melanie-simons-ziip-003_480x480.jpg?v=1604345530\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tagline\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"With ZIIP, customers not only get the tool, but also they get a personal, virtual, Electrical Esthetician, to teach and support them through the process.\" \u003cbr\u003e- Melanie Simons\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tagline\"\u003eSimon created the ZIIP as a way of sharing her knowledge with the world and connecting to them via technology. “With ZIIP, they not only get the tool, but they also get a personal, virtual electrical aesthetician to teach and support them through the process,” she explains. Once you’ve purchased the device (at $495 it is not cheap, but I promise it amortizes over time), you need to download the app. Simon literally walks you through each program (currently, there are six) as you begin.

For example, if you are breaking out, use the Total Clearing program. If you have a date night or an event later that day, upload the Instant Gratification treatment. The treatments are completely unlimited,” explains Simon. And that’s just it—the beauty of ZIIP is that you can get a little lift whenever you want. You’re in total control of your face, and the results are immediate. Simon is the wizard behind the wand, and she has bequeathed her power to her users. #Abracadabra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMELANIE SIMONS BEFORE 10AM\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"product-grid-title \"\u003eBEDROOM\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat is the atmosphere of your bedroom?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"acms-module snippet-tvf copy\" data-id=\"53ffb8fa-97b9-44d3-9d1d-89b00a8ce7ea\" id=\"section_1_column_2_section_1_copy_q_and_a_18\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"copy_size\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"copy-medium\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s like a blue cocoon—royal blue paint and velvet walls.

Now, multiply that by years.

Most electrotherapy falls under four main treatment types: Faradic, Galvanic, high frequency and microcurrent. The ZIIP specifically uses microcurrents to stimulate ATP production. In fact, the ZIIP’s special cocktail of nano and microcurrents can increase ATP levels up to 500 percent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a very basic level, ATP is a chemical compound responsible for converting everything we consume into usable energy. It’s also an essential driving force of cellular processes such as the production of lipids and proteins, collagen and elastin included. (In case you forgot, collagen is the main structural protein making up connective tissue, including skin and cartilage, and fellow protein elastin is responsible for the resilience and and structure of skin.) Because your body cannot store unused ATP, the effects of the ZIIP are cumulative, becoming apparent after regular use. By kicking ATP production into overdrive on a weekly basis, the ZIIP encourages your body to produce all the collagen and elastin it needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBesides firming and wrinkle-busting effects resulting from the ZIIP’s stimulation of collagen and elastin production, the device also aids in lymphatic drainage, provides spot treatment of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hypebae.com\/tags\/acne\" ga-on=\"click\" ga-event-category=\"internal links\" ga-event-action=\"clicks_from_editorial_article\" ga-event-label=\"https:\/\/hypebae.com\/tags\/acne\" data-ol-has-click-handler=\"\"\u003eacne\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand curbs the production of pigment responsible for dark spots.

All benefits aside, the ZIIP’s $495 USD price tag, plus regular replenishment of conductive gel (ranging from $50 to $129 USD), is daunting. For context, similar electrotherapy devices such as the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mynuface.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" ga-on=\"click\" ga-event-category=\"outbound links\" ga-event-action=\"clicks_from_editorial_article\" ga-event-label=\"https:\/\/www.mynuface.com\/\" data-ol-has-click-handler=\"\"\u003eNuFACE\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eare priced around the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough a nearly $500 out-of-pocket expense isn’t anything to take lightly, it should be noted that the ZIIP essentially includes 10 different\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hypebae.com\/tags\/facials\" ga-on=\"click\" ga-event-category=\"internal links\" ga-event-action=\"clicks_from_editorial_article\" ga-event-label=\"https:\/\/hypebae.com\/tags\/facials\" data-ol-has-click-handler=\"\"\u003efacials\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ethat can be performed at home, at any time. If you book a monthly facial, typically ringing up at around $200 USD per appointment, the ZIIP can entirely replace or prolong the effects of in-spa treatments. Depending on your routine, the ZIIP ends up paying for itself and saving you money in the long run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough the ZIIP doesn’t hurt, some users (myself included), can feel the electrical currents it delivers. It feels like a slight sting or prickle — nothing unbearable, but certainly noticeable. Additionally, some of the stronger treatments such as Instant Gratification and Lymph \u0026amp; Lift can cause involuntary muscle contraction, a common side effect that, while strange to experience, isn’t harmful and doesn’t last longer than the length of the treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI would recommend the ZIIP to anyone looking to replace or augment regular facials with an at-home device. I’ve found it especially effective for breakouts, but anyone who suffers from serious acne should definitely consult a dermatologist before purchasing. At the end of the day, it’s a matter of personal preference that determines whether the ZIIP’s hefty price tag is worth its long-term benefits. As for myself, I’ll continue using the ZIIP regularly — only time will tell if my skin will eventually rival that of Simon’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSOURCE: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hypebae.com\/2020\/3\/ziip-gx-beauty-device-skincare-review-results-before-after\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"I Shocked My Face With Electrical Currents Using The Ziip — Here's What Happened\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ehttps:\/\/hypebae.com\/2020\/3\/ziip-gx-beauty-device-skincare-review-results-before-after\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","blog_id":51119128661,"author":"Hawke Media","user_id":24307204181,"published_at":"2020-11-03T09:27:00-08:00","updated_at":"2020-12-03T20:02:19-08:00","summary_html":"https:\/\/hypebae.com\/2020\/3\/ziip-gx-beauty-device-skincare-review-results-before-after","template_suffix":null,"handle":"i-shocked-my-face-with-electrical-currents-using-the-ziip-heres-what-happened","tags":"Press","image":{"created_at":"2020-12-03T20:02:18-08:00","alt":"I Shocked My Face With Electrical Currents Using The Ziip — Here's What Happened | ZIIP","width":1400,"height":930,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1768\/8429\/articles\/I_shocked_my_face_with_electrical_currents_using_the_ziip.jpg?v=1607054539"}} {"id":390117982293,"title":"Jennifer Aniston-Faved Electric Esthetician Melanie Simon On Her Quarantine Skincare Tips","created_at":"2020-12-03T20:02:15-08:00","body_html":"\u003cp\u003eBy\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/uncoverla.com\/author\/danielle-directo-meston\/\" title=\"Posts by Danielle Directo-Meston\" rel=\"author\"\u003eDANIELLE DIRECTO-MESTON\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSalons and spas might not be considered\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"essential businesses list (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/covid19.ca.gov\/img\/EssentialCriticalInfrastructureWorkers.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eessential businesses\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ein California's eyes — and for those whose anxiety is at an all-time high due to the coronavirus, it's crucial to practice self-care at home.

First, try to wash morning and night — always start your routine by washing your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds and dry with a clean hand towel. Second, if you have a toner, allow your skin to be exfoliated to the maximum extent and also get all the anti-bacterial effects of your toner. To do this, let is sit on your face and absorb for a few minutes before putting anything else on your skin. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLast, try using a creme like\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Dr. Rogers Restore Face Cream (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dermstore.com\/product_RESTORE+Face+Cream_82991.htm\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDr. Rogers Restore Face Cream\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e($72), [which provides] heavy moisture for dry climates, or Bioderma's\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Sensibio AR Cream (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dermstore.com\/product_Sensibio+AR+Cream_72248.htm\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSensibio AR Cream\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e($25) or\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Sensibio Light Cream (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dermstore.com\/product_Sensibio+Light+Cream_72250.htm\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSensibio Light Cream\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e($20) for lightweight moisture in more humid areas.

The more consistency, the more our electrical currents stimulate a naturally-occurring chemical called Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). ATP is stored energy, released when you need it. As you age, your ability to produce and store ATP deteriorates, which means that your body doesn’t have the stored energy to repair damaged skin cells. ZIIP’s electrical currents increase the levels of ATP in your skin, replenishing your stored energy and allowing your cells to communicate again and repair themselves. #themoreyouknow\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"\u003eA post shared by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ziipbeauty\/?utm_source=ig_embed\u0026amp;utm_campaign=loading\" style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e ZIIP\u003c\/a\u003e (@ziipbeauty) on \u003ctime style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2019-12-06T19:28:41+00:00\"\u003eDec 6, 2019 at 11:28am PST\u003c\/time\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cscript async=\"\" src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"\u003e\u003c\/script\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAs we all do our part to practice social distancing, what are some other skincare steps or tricks we should consider right now?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTry to make and stick to a routine.

The likes of Jennifer Aniston, Eva Mendes, Margot Robbie, Sandra Bullock and Priyanka Chopra Jonas are said to have liked it. Melanie Simon, an aesthetician in Los Angeles, who gives the facials with the help of an at-home nanocurrent device, says that Sandra (Bullock) told her that it keeps her face from ‘sliding down to the ground’. The gadget, which looks like a particularly nice computer mouse rimmed with gold, has also caught on with celebrity make-up artists.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"top2brdiv\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOFFERS DIFFERENT BENEFITS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore the treatment, a few face gels are slathered onto the face, which also double up as treatment masks. Then, via a mobile app that syncs with the device, you choose one of eight options, ranging from the two-minute primer (for brightening) to the four-minute instant gratification (lift\/sculpt\/awaken) to the 12-minute energise, which is said to fill\/lift\/glow. The nanocurrent is also said to aid in the production of collagen. Another version of the treatment that uses an antioxidant, is said to make the skin glow.

A pungent smell and\/or skin irritation are signs that it’s time to toss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"subheader mb-1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShelf Life of Common Skincare Products\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGenerally speaking, you should toss closed skincare products after one year and open products after six months, says celebrity facialist and eponymous skincare line founder \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/joannavargas.com\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJoanna Vargas\u003c\/a\u003e. In fact, when you open a product may be even more important than the expiration date. An airless pump is much better than a jar, but, even in airless packaging, oxygen starts to get to the product, says aesthetician and ZIIP co-founder \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/melaniesimonskincare.com\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMelanie Simon\u003c\/a\u003e. She prioritizes open date over expiration date, smelling her products “just like food” and looking to see if they are separating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you first open a product, pay attention to the consistency. If you notice it is separated or clumpy, Simon says to contact the brand. Similarly, if you’ve had the product for a long time, notice how the formula looks before using. “If it starts to have a foggy appearance or something with a vitamin C is changing color dramatically, it is no longer good to use,” she says.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith that in mind, below are some general rules of them when it comes to the shelf life of skincare products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"overline mb-1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHELF LIFE OF SUNSCREEN\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf ever there was a case for paying attention to the expiration date, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aedit.com\/aedition\/how-to-apply-sunscreen-and-not-miss-a-spot\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003esunscreen\u003c\/a\u003e is it. Dr. Frank says that, once your SPF is opened, it becomes less effective as time goes on. Robinson agrees and notes that you should be careful with sunscreen products because, if those expire, you are more likely to get over exposed to damaging sun rays. Simon says that she typically uses a sunblock for six months after opening. “If it is more than a year old, I will only use it if it’s the only SPF I have — when I am absolutely desperate,” she says.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"overline mb-1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHELF LIFE OF MOISTURIZER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCremes can be tricky because there are so many types, Simon notes. Some creams in jars, even when brand new, naturally separate. Simon says to use a Q-tip or cream applicator to stir the formula. “I also like to shake my bottles or jars of moisturizer almost every time I use a product,” she shares. “Especially now, skincare lines are getting away from chemicals that keep their products emulsified and preserved longer.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"overline mb-1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHELF LIFE OF SERUM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimon advises using a serum for up to eight months after opening. “If you’re using your serum properly, you really should be through it by that point,” she says. But there is a bit of leeway. “If you open and use consistently and it pushes three months past expiration, I believe it’s perfectly fine,” she adds.

Alongside a former Silicon Valley engineer, Simon created the ZIIP. It’s a small, handheld device that uses nano and microcurrent technology to encourage circulation, healing, and collagen production, among other benefits. ZIIP syncs with the app when hovered over a phone, automatically opening a video of Simon teaching your chosen program (which range from acne clearing to pigmentation reduction to an “instant gratification” face sculpt). On contact with your skin, the device emits a tingling sensation, vibrating when it’s ready to move to the next spot on your face and beeping to mark the halfway point.

But for people who don’t have the luxury of visiting Simon regularly, there is hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tagline\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0413\/4230\/4405\/files\/woman-made-melanie-simons-ziip-003_480x480.jpg?v=1604345530\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tagline\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"With ZIIP, customers not only get the tool, but also they get a personal, virtual, Electrical Esthetician, to teach and support them through the process.\" \u003cbr\u003e- Melanie Simons\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tagline\"\u003eSimon created the ZIIP as a way of sharing her knowledge with the world and connecting to them via technology. “With ZIIP, they not only get the tool, but they also get a personal, virtual electrical aesthetician to teach and support them through the process,” she explains. Once you’ve purchased the device (at $495 it is not cheap, but I promise it amortizes over time), you need to download the app. Simon literally walks you through each program (currently, there are six) as you begin.

For example, if you are breaking out, use the Total Clearing program. If you have a date night or an event later that day, upload the Instant Gratification treatment. The treatments are completely unlimited,” explains Simon. And that’s just it—the beauty of ZIIP is that you can get a little lift whenever you want. You’re in total control of your face, and the results are immediate. Simon is the wizard behind the wand, and she has bequeathed her power to her users. #Abracadabra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMELANIE SIMONS BEFORE 10AM\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"product-grid-title \"\u003eBEDROOM\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat is the atmosphere of your bedroom?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"acms-module snippet-tvf copy\" data-id=\"53ffb8fa-97b9-44d3-9d1d-89b00a8ce7ea\" id=\"section_1_column_2_section_1_copy_q_and_a_18\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"copy_size\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"copy-medium\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s like a blue cocoon—royal blue paint and velvet walls.
