Thenpeople are forgetting to use their sunblock.

Lyssa- host: okay.

Susan wells: so another tip is to switchto an oil-free block.

This one's tinted, so you may feel like you don't need asmuch makeup above the mask- lyssa- host: ah, gotcha.

Susan wells: it will keep you clear too.

Lyssa- host: that's good.

I like that.

Susan wells: mm-hmm .

Lyssa- host: then you also have a retinaeformulation as well, and a tip for that, for summertime versus winter time too.

Susan wells: so it is more humid in thesummer and it may be if you're trying to achieve better exfoliation that you gofrom your lower dose retinae up to your higher dose to keep very exfoliated.

Lyssa- host: okay.

Susan wells: another agent we have is anenzyme peel that is universal for any person.

You can use it every day if youwant to.

It's that gentle.

Lyssa- host: nice, and what is that goingto do exactly?

Susan wells: it separates the cells, andit goes down in the pores and cleans them out without irritation.

Lyssa- host: okay.

All right.

Very good.

Susan wells: the other thing is you mightwant to switch your makeup to a mineral makeup, which is anti-inflammatory andoil-free.

You and i both enjoy glo minerals- lyssa- host: we're fans- susan wells: yeah.

We are- lyssa- host: we're fans of glo minerals- susan wells: and maybe, just don't wearmakeup under your mask.

Susan wells: so, maybe you want to go to atreatment at home then.

This is daily home care.

We're wearing faceshields, and actually, there's body shield that goes over them.
