Why We Love Rhonda Allison Skincare
There are hundreds of brands to choose from in the skincare industry. From professional medical grade skincare to *green* beauty and everything in between, finding and selecting a skincare line(s) that works for your skin type can be challenging. While we know it can be difficult to find a company that covers everything you’re looking for in a brand, Rhonda Allison comes pretty close. As a quality “happy medium” between mainstream and professional grade skincare, Rhonda Allison is formulated with ingredients that offer a range of benefits. Our Scottsdale skincare professionals are giving you the deets on all this and more, below!
What Is Rhonda Allison
Before we answer the “what”, let’s chat about the “who” - the founder behind the brand, Rhonda Allison herself. Rhonda Allison has been in the beauty industry for 30+ years. A trailblazer in the industry, she pioneered new and effective techniques with acids and chemical peels, created the entire Rhonda Allison skincare line, and educated more aestheticians than you can count.
In 1992, with the help of doctors and chemists, Allison created a video, The Art Skin Peeling and a book titled, Cooking with Acids. These popular publications helped to raise the industry standards for acid based skin peels and helped gain Rhonda Allison popularity for her ability to develop these superior acid based formulas.
The Rhonda Allison brand itself is a professional skincare line made up of well-researched products that focus on potent, active ingredients that truly generate results. Rhonda Allison features many different lines of skincare that target all different types of skin concerns and skin types. To name a few: anti-aging, acne prone skin, dry skin, and more!
Rhonda Allison Ingredients
As a brand backed with heavy research, Rhonda Allison aims to provide only the most effective formulas possible. That's why Rhonda Allison is centered around key active ingredients that are not too harsh on the skin. To name a few of the more prominent ingredients that can be found in their products: lactic acid, pumpkin extract, and epidermal growth factor.
Lactic Acid
Lactic acid is a powerful alpha hydroxy acid (AHA). In between glycolic and mandelic acid, this AHA has mid-sized molecules which means while it is capable of exfoliating the surface of the skin, it isn’t powerful enough to penetrate deep enough to cause any kind of irritation.
Lactic acid is the only AHA that can also act as a humectant (a moisturizer) which makes it suitable for all skin types (including those with dry or sensitive skin).
Pumpkin Extract
Every Fall we try to remind you guys of the benefits of consuming *all* things pumpkin - & it’s for a good reason! Pumpkin itself is full of vitamins, enzymes and AHA’s that all help to exfoliate the surface of the skin and achieve a brighter, smoother looking complexion.
Aside from the actual fruit itself, the oil from the pumpkin seed can also be highly beneficial to the skin. Unlikely to cause any clogged pores, this seed oil can actually help combat acne and skin irritation.
*We do recommend Rhonda Allison’s products formulated with these ingredients over going to the store and purchasing your own pumpkin* ;)
Rhonda Allison’s all-purpose pumpkin cleanser is a great place to start to gain these benefits - it contains vitamin A and beta carotene, two very potent antioxidant ingredients.
Epidermal Growth Factor
Epidermal Growth factor is a new yet effective ingredient to skincare. Used primarily for its regenerative benefits, EGF helps stimulate the cells in your skin to produce collagen. We recommend Rhonda Allison’s Vital Repair Gel to those who are combating acne prone skin or anti-aging as it helps accelerate the skin’s healing process.
