WHILE I MAY NOT LIVE IN HOLLYWOOD AND HAVE ACCESS TO HIS CLINIC ON MY DOORSTEP, I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE A SKYPE SKIN CONSULTATION WITH HIM; DISCUSSING EVERYTHING I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT MAINTAINING A HEALTHY COMPLEXION AND ACHIEVING THAT FAMOUS, “LANCER GLOW.” DR.LANCER O u r B e a u t y E d i t o r A m e l i a c h a t s t o D r . L a n c e r a b o u t t h e i d e a l s k i n c a r e r o u t i n e . MYHERITAGEAND FAMILYLINEAGE This was the first topic of discussion as this is what is examined in an initial consultation with Dr. Lancer. The reasoning behind this is that you would never go into a hospital operation without first discussing your medical and family history, so your skin should receive the same treatment. A fair skinned person may have an ancestor with a dark complexion, and their complexion doesn’t behave in the traditional way fair skin does. In my case, Dr. Lancer diagnosed my ancestry as number 1 on the Lancer Ethnicity Scale, which means I am of Northern European heritage, with fair skin that burns easily and can have areas of sensitivity. This would mean that I need to introduce products gradually and take extra care in the sun. THEPRESCRIBED METHOD Based on my family ancestry and medical history, Dr. Lancer recommended a range of products and how often I should be using them to help give me a glowing complexion. Firstly, he recommended the Sensitive Polish as exfoliants can sometimes cause too much irritation on my skin, so the Sensitive version will still exfoliate without upsetting the balance. He then recommended the normal Cleanse and Nourish to complete The Method and keep my skin healthy. To supercharge my routine, he advised me to add in the Advanced C Radiance Cream after a couple of weeks into my morning routine. This will help to help awaken my skin and add in essential vitamins for the colder weather.SkinAncestry is so important for
