We have always been hyper sensitive about our skin because growing up we definitely had our fair share of annoying teenage acne (we will spare you the photographic evidence).

Luckily, we have found a few things that work for us in the skincare world and don’t have to deal with blemishes quite as frequently anymore.

We recently heard about Emage Skin Analysis and decided to go to Elase Spa to test it out.

It sounds intimidating, but it’s actually amazing technology.

By simply taking three different pictures of your face using different lights, they are able to count your pores, see sun damage and find out where future wrinkles will form.

The best part, it is totally FREE!

Anyone can go to Elase and get the analysis done in less than 15 minutes.

They not only tell you a ton about your skin, but you leave with samples of skin care products picked out specifically for your skin needs.

Pretty neat.

We found out that we both have good skin tone, but we have clogged pores around our noses (ewww) and sun damage around our eyes (sunglasses forever and always). They gave us several cleansers, gels and moisturizers to reverse and remedy those issues.

By the way, I would like my future home to be designed after the new Elase location at Station Park in Farmington… it is gorgeous!

We are giving away one laser hair removal membership or 20 units of Botox to 2 lucky people for the new Station Park location!

But, before you go…

Read about her latest experience with Hormone Therapy at Elase Spas:

There are some days where I want to rip my hair out, where I know that I am being completely ridiculous and think to myself, you’ve got to pull it together, but I really just can’t. My hormones take over and I am all over the place. I am certain I should probably lock myself in my room and not come out (and trust me, that has happened and probably welcomed by my family members).

But my insane cycles that I have had since I was 12 years old just added to all of that and I would turn into a raging lunatic. While I thought some of that had gotten better, I realize now that I had just accepted the fact that my hormones were that way and tried to deal with it in the best way I could.

What I didn’t know up until 5 months ago was how much better it could be. When I had the opportunity to work with Elase I was excited about so many things. Of course getting rid of my manbeard was at the top of the list (thank you PCOS), the VIVE weight loss program, photo facials, chemical peels and even Botox, but I was also completely intrigued by the bio-identical hormone therapy. So, I set up an appointment to meet with Catherine, the nurse practitioner at Elase, and had my blood work done.

I went back the next week to go over the results and she asked me a few questions. For example, did I felt anxious? Sure, sometimes. She asked me if I had a hard time sleeping. Yes, but I am a busy mom of three with a lot on my plate!!! She asked me if I felt like I was always in attack mode and if even the smallest things irritated me. And I asked her if she had talked to my husband! Because certainly he must have told her how insane I could be because she was describing me to a tee. And then we laughed and laughed because that is one of my favorite things to do with the ladies at Elase.

Catherine knew exactly why I was feeling that way and went over my blood work with me pointing out how low my progesterone was (basically non-existent) and how high my testosterone was (almost triple what it should be) as well as the lack of Vitamin D in my body. She went over the good aspects too like my thyroid and cholesterol levels. She sent in a prescription for progesterone and told me to use it as a tool. If I was feeling anxious and irritated I should take some progesterone because more than likely I was lacking and could use that boost.

I am so, so glad I went to see Catherine to see how bio-identical hormones could help me. I haven’t felt this good in ages. Truly. I don’t feel like the crazy, hormonal banshee that I was (and had been for a while). As long as I have my progesterone and Vitamin D, I feel like my best self (except those days I forget and then I see a glimpse of that crazy banshee self that no one misses around here!). And this may be too much information (I told you I was keeping it real) but for the first time in my life, I have had a regular cycle for five months in a row. I will spare you the details but that alone has changed my life! I never knew it should be like this because it never has been until now. Thank you, Catherine & Elase! You are the best!
