Leza Duncan transitioned into a new craft when she moved back home from Hawaii where she was a professional photographer. Her exposure to photo shoots, interest in transformation through hair and makeup, in addition to believing in the Aveda philosophy motivated her to experience a new direction. She joined Salon U, when it first opened, and in this journey has trained under Aveda make-up and hair artists and gained her cosmetology license.
After years of working the Aveda’s products, she is convinced that there are no products better for the health of your skin and hair, and has compiled this list of her favorites: The Aveda skin care line offers regimes for all skin types, from sensitive to mature. Every product is made from all organic ingredients without the use of petrochemicals.
• Outer Peace has proven to amazingly improve acne both in young adults and adults. The Outer Peace pads are extremely popular because of ease of use. This product is proven to unclog pores, exfoliate and help prevent new breakouts.
• For blemished skin use Cooling Masque. This mask is friendly to all skin types. It promises to reduce visible redness while cooling and calming the skin.
