Portland Self Care

All that time in quarantine has made us all dissect ourselves wayyyyyy too much. Maybe you’re counting pores on your nose or plucking away gray hairs- whatever it is- your mirror reflection obsession has to end. Besides, there’s a beauty solution for most of our vanity issues. This week on AM Northwest, we talk about viewer questions around dandruff and less-desirable skin for both gals and guys.  

Why is my dandruff so bad this year? 
Summer is notorious for making dandruff worse because your scalp gets sweatier and oilier.  There’s also a lot of people working from home, which means a lot of us aren’t washing our hair as much as when we headed into the office. The more buildup of skin cells on that already irritated scalp leads to more flakes. This product from BosleyMD is using their professional expertise to treat and eliminate dandruff no matter the season.

PRICE: $28.00
Bosley’s Scalp Relief Anti-Dandruff Shampoo with Pyrithione Zinc helps eliminate dandruff, control the appearance of visible flakes and calms the scalp with continued use. Pyrithione Zinc helps eliminate dandruff while Pumpkin Seed extract assists in inhibiting DHT, Rosemary extract helps reduce scalp inflammation and increase circulation, and Panthenol strengthens hair strands. This shampoo helps removes build-up, such as DHT, from the scalp surface, while cleansing hair of product build up and pollution.

All this spending time with me is making me look at my skin more?
NY Times reported that Americans are spending more on health and beauty since February. Makes sense since we’re spending all this time with ourselves and are encouraged to “self-care”. What are most of us looking for in skincare? As usual, we want to see results and tend to look for products that are more universal and treat a lot of skin concerns in one application. I’m still on my trial with Orpheus and it’s definitely showing signs of more glowy skin. I have also seen an improvement in tone.

And Self-care isn’t just for the ladies. Guys are looking in the mirror too and seeing room for some skin improvements. As usual, men want simplicity and more of a step-by-step approach. Enter Tiege Hanley, who touts their products as uncomplicated skincare.
