Why Embracing Beauty Technology Is The 2021 Secret To Great Skin
Here’s everything you need to know about skin screening.
It’s no secret that technology is rapidly changing. Whether it’s the latest iPhone (we’re up to the iPhone 365 or something now, right?), electric cars or packages getting delivered via drones, it seems that life is getting quicker, easier and, well, better with the help of technology. Manual has gone mechanised and analogue has gone digital. And like our skin mirrors what is happening in our lives via hormonal breakouts or that I-drank-enough-water-today glow, the skincare industry mirrors the technological advancements that are taking the world by storm.
Famous for being at the forefront of science, innovation and technology, Lancôme is a serious heavy hitter when it comes to skincare. Particularly renowned for their Génifique line, which is backed by over 20 years of research, the brand prides themselves on being on the cutting edge.
So, it came as no surprise to us when their latest innovation, the Skin Screen, finally landed on Australian shores. Here, we breakdown exactly what makes this service so special.
The How
Lancôme’s most accurate and high-performance imaging system yet, the Skin Screen is basically good skin in a machine. Combining a breakthrough combination of tri-polar light technology with advanced algorithms, the machine works to evaluate your skin’s key parameters and reveal its needs in just 20 minutes. Did someone say lunch break skin analysis?
The machine also has scope to cover every possible angle of your face, identifying where you may be neglecting your complexion and where you can prioritise your routine. Although at times confronting (it can get quite up close and personal), knowing exactly where you can up the ante is key to ensuring your skin stays in tip-top shape for as long as possible.
The What
Sure, advanced skin technology is all well and good but if you don’t know what exactly it’s going to tell you, then what’s the point? Luckily for us, the Skin Screen has eight key indicators to quickly identify where you can do better:
- Texture
- Red patches
- Brown spots
- Hydration
- Firmness
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Clogged pores
- UV damage
Plus, with skin experts on standby to walk you through your skin analysis results (and the products personalised to address your skin’s needs), all you have to do is bring that stunning face of yours to the counter.
The Where
Speaking of counters, we know that we’ve really buried the lede with exactly where you can get this life-changing service. You’re itching to book in—we get it, we get it. Available at selected Lancôme counters including Myer Melbourne, David Jones Bourke Street, Myer Sydney, David Jones Elizabeth Street and David Jones Queens Plaza, there are plenty of opportunities (and locations) to secure your appointment (pending Covid-19 restrictions in your area). All you have to do is click here to sign up for a Skin Screen session at a counter convenient to you and boom, you’re already halfway to your best skin yet.
The Price
Price-wise the Skin Screen is—drumroll please—complimentary. Yep, you read that right, the service is offered to all customers for free. So, what on earth are you waiting for?
