QUESTIONS FROM SHANI DARDEN
Q: How do you keep your skintone even?
A:The best way to keep your skin tone even is to wear sunscreen everyday no matter what the weather is.
Q: How can you fade dark spots?
A: Retinol accelerates cell turnover and helps to fade acne scars, dark spots and dicoloration.
Q: How can you make your pores look smaller?
A:You can’t skin your pores but you can use products to make them appear smaller. People with oily skin tend to have larger pores. Using products that exfoliate the skin such as glycolic, lactic and salicylic acid and retinol are all great for large pores. Also getting facials to have your pores cleaned will keep them from looking larger.
Q: What is a good drugstore brand?
A: Neutrogena has some good products that you can buy at drugstores.
Q: When should you start using anti-aging products?
A: You should start using anti aging products in your early 20’s. The best anti aging product is sunscreen and you should start using it as a child.
Q: How do I know what type of products to use for my skin?
A: The best way to find out what products are right for you is to talk to a esthetician or dermatologist. You need to use products for your skin type.
Q: What can I do to fade wrinkles or fine lines? And under the eyes?
A: Retinol is great for wrinkles. Retinol Reform is light enough that you can use it under the eyes. Using a good eye cream can reduce dark circles as well as getting enough sleep.
Q: What do I do if I get a pimple?
A: If you get a pimple the best thing to do is not to pick which is easy said then done. Using a spot treatment can help treat it. I love sulfur to treat pimples
Q: How can I prevent breakouts?
A: The best way to prevent breakouts is to eat right, excercise and make sure your using the right products for your skin type.
Q: What facial do you do on Marianna?
A: I don’t have a specific facial i do for you. I do whatever you skin needs at the time. when I first started seeing you I woud use a salicylic peel on you because your skin was very congested. Now that you have using the right products for your skin type and your skin is clear I used a few different lactic acid peels.
Q: What can you do for find lines and skin discoloration?
A: Retinol Reform helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, dark marks, acne scars, dicoloraction and is great for acne. Retinol boosts collagen in the skin and is great for anti-aging.
Q: What do I do if I have really bad breakouts?
A: If you are having a problem with acne you have to get it treated. It will not go away on its own and leaving it untreated can cause damage to the skin and leave permanent scars. You need to get regular facials with extractions and use the right products to treat your specific skin type.

Hi Marianna!
This is my first time watching one of your blogs and I really enjoyed it and found it to be insightful! I was wondering if you have a regiment or routine for dark circles or bags under your eyes. I understand this is often driven by genetics but is there a way to reduce/soften the look of baggy eyes?
Thank you!
