What to Know about 2022’s aesthetic skin care trends

Health and wellness were at the forefront of 2021, as the global pandemic heightened awareness of beauty. It was no longer enough to rely on primers and highlighters; we wished to rejuvenate our skin at a deeper level with hardworking actives and hero ingredients. As people sought to become more knowledgeable about skin care, cult creams and serums gave way to cult ingredients. But what’s in store for us in the new year?

Skincare that reduces inflammation

“I believe it is becoming increasingly apparent how important it is to maintain good health and to avoid skin disorders caused by inflammation. We are moving away from certain trends like Retin-A or acid peels in order to strengthen our skin as an organ, strengthen our skin barrier function, and strengthen our micro microbiome by switching to an anti-inflammatory skincare regime and lifestyle that is better for our health and kinder to our skin.”

Imagism of the skin

I anticipate that in 2022, people will opt for simpler skin-care routines and a minimalistic approach to beauty. Having learned that using too many products will not guarantee effective results, many of our clients have begun to realize that less is more when it comes to skin care. Keeping your skin protected and hydrated will help make a huge difference.”

Home treatments

“At-home treatments are set to continue rising in popularity. The number of requests for face masks, overnight rejuvenating treatments, hydrating and chemical peel-like treatments is on the rise. Over-the-counter products aren’t always enough to make a significant impact on the appearance of people’s skin for some, and they want something that will do so.”

Skin cells and energy

The topic of ATP (skin cell energy) will be discussed along with products and treatments that boost ATP without causing traditional trauma (e.g. controlled damage to trigger repair). Inflammation cannot occur. Professional and home care products can now activate cell energy, which allows for skin rejuvenation without damaging the skin. Avoid cold lasers, Circadia’s switch treatment, and skin stimulators.”
