The celebrity esthetician (whose clients include Jessica Alba, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Shay Mitchell) has a refreshingly no-nonsense approach to skin care. I remember during my facial, she took the time to evaluate my skin, accurately noting how sensitive it was, and adjusted accordingly. There are no add-ons or special extras you need to pay up for: She just gives the skin what it needs. Each facial is specifically created for the client&#8217;s skin, in that exact moment.<\/p>\n<p>We also chatted throughout the facial, during which she took the time to educate me on what she was doing, why she was doing it, and what I should be doing at home. She\u2019s also the founder of her eponymous skin care and facial tool device brand, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shanidarden.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"mbg-track-event\" data-track-event-types=\"click\" data-track-type=\"article-link\" data-track-prop-element-id=\"in-body-link\" data-track-prop-label=\"page_type | element_id\" data-track-prop-category=\"Link\" data-track-prop-link=\"https:\/\/www.shanidarden.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Shani Darden Skin Care<\/a>, so those who can\u2019t score a sought after appointment at her Beverly Hills spa can get a taste of the treatments at home.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I recently caught up with Darden on this week\u2019s episode of <a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/clean-beauty-school\/id1562146692\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"mbg-track-event\" data-track-event-types=\"click\" data-track-type=\"article-link\" data-track-prop-element-id=\"in-body-link\" data-track-prop-label=\"page_type | element_id\" data-track-prop-category=\"Link\" data-track-prop-link=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/clean-beauty-school\/id1562146692\" rel=\"noopener\">Clean Beauty School<\/a>. Throughout the episode we talk about her approach to skin care, her must-have products, and her favorite skin care technology at the moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Tune in to hear more from the famed facialist\u2014and in the meantime, enjoy some of my favorite takeaways.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--\/$--><\/div>\n<div id=\"\"><!--$--><\/p>\n<div end=\"false\" class=\"sc-11rlt5o-4 dblBVm\">\n<p>If you\u2019ve looked into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mindbodygreen.com\/articles\/11-tips-on-how-to-use-retinol-from-derms\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"mbg-track-event\" data-track-event-types=\"click\" data-track-type=\"article-link\" data-track-prop-element-id=\"in-body-link\" data-track-prop-label=\"page_type | element_id\" data-track-prop-category=\"Link\" data-track-prop-link=\"https:\/\/www.mindbodygreen.com\/articles\/11-tips-on-how-to-use-retinol-from-derms\" rel=\"noopener\">retinol usage tips<\/a>, you\u2019ve likely heard that you need to ease into it: Starting sparingly, and working your way up to nightly use. And that\u2019s true! But what lots of folks don\u2019t know (myself included up until Darden told me during this episode), is that you need to do that every single time you switch retinol formulations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe biggest problem I see is when someone is like, \u2018Oh, I\u2019ve used this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mindbodygreen.com\/articles\/what-does-retinol-do-retinol-for-skin-acne-side-effects\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"mbg-track-event\" data-track-event-types=\"click\" data-track-type=\"article-link\" data-track-prop-element-id=\"in-body-link\" data-track-prop-label=\"page_type | element_id\" data-track-prop-category=\"Link\" data-track-prop-link=\"https:\/\/www.mindbodygreen.com\/articles\/what-does-retinol-do-retinol-for-skin-acne-side-effects\" rel=\"noopener\">retinol<\/a> and my skin\u2019s freaking out.\u2019 So I usually say, \u2018Well, how did you start it?\u2019 And they\u2019re like \u2018I started using it every other night because I was already using another retinol.\u2019 Nope\u2014doesn\u2019t work that way,\u201d Darden explained. \u201cIt doesn&#8217;t matter if you&#8217;ve used retinol in the past. They&#8217;re all different: There are different ingredients formulated with it and different kinds of retinol. You have to start again and be patient.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Essentially: You can\u2019t jump around between retinols, assuming you\u2019ve built some sort of tolerance for it. Every retinol formula is unique, and you\u00a0need to allow your skin to adjust the current one.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--\/$--><\/div>\n<div id=\"\"><!--$--><\/p>\n<div end=\"false\" class=\"sc-11rlt5o-4 dblBVm\">\n<p>We don\u2019t spend a ton of time in the depths of lifestyle skin care, but Darden notes she\u2019s a big believer that diet influences skin health. \u201cI think eating clean is really important. Eating too many carbs, sugar, all of that does pay a toll on your skin. So just make sure you&#8217;re careful about what you&#8217;re eating,\u201d she says. \u201cOf course, we all have to splurge, but if for the most part you\u2019re eating clean, you&#8217;ll definitely see a big difference.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She notes this is especially true for those with acne. \u201c[When I was an esthetician at a dermatologist\u2019s office] I would see a lot of patients who were struggling with acne for so long, and changing their diet made a huge difference. What made the biggest difference was removing dairy,\u201d she says.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Looking for more skin care insights?
