Anti-Aging
Over time, the skin’s strong, fibrous and elastic structure begins to break down and weaken, inhibiting skin cell turnover and contributing to hyaluronic acid, elastin, and collagen depletion. As these essential elements begin to disappear, the skin loses strength and resilience. The result is a loss of a healthy and youthful complexion.
Premature aging can affect anyone and its symptoms are simple: signs of aging earlier than is standard. For instance, grey hairs, wrinkles, and sagging skin in your early to mid-twenties.
The most common causes are UV Exposure, Smoking, Alcohol and Caffeine Intake, Sleep Habits, Unhealthy Diet, Stress, and even our Environment.
Collagen and elastin fibers thin out and loosen as we age, and it’s a natural process. While it's possible to accelerate collagen loss if we don’t take care of our skin, it's also possible to replenish it.
The body produces free radicals, which are unstable atoms that are known to damage healthy cells in our bodies and accelerate aging.
It starts with improving your lifestyle. Regular exercise, good sleep, a balanced diet, and the use of natural and clean anti-aging products and dermarolling are excellent ways to rejuvenate the skin naturally.
Dermarolling is proven to be an effective anti-aging treatment! When rolled along the skin, dermarollers create microscopic wounds in the skin which serve to trigger the body's healing response. This translates to boosted collagen, elastin, and circulation which are key factors in anti-aging.
The best dermaroller size that helps with promoting new collagen production is the 0.25mm and 0.5mm dermaroller, accelerating anti-aging benefits.

Retinol is the holy grail for maintaining a youthful glow. It vastly reduces wrinkles, increases the rate of skin cell turnover, brightens the complexion, improves skin tone and texture, and regulates sebum production. Gin Amber Beauty’s Retinol Products uses plant-based retinol and other skin-enriching ingredients, perfect for reversing aging.
We recommend utilizing anti-aging products as early as your 20s to help retain the appearance of a youthful and glowing complexion. Do nourish your skin at the first signs of wrinkles and combat premature aging.
Acne + Texture
Is the most prevalent skin condition that affects an estimated 650 million people worldwide. Acne frequently appears on the face (99%), but can also be found on the back (60%), and chest (15%). It can show up as little red spots (papules), yellow spots (pustules), huge, painful red patches (nodules), or comedones (black and white heads).
Diet, stress, hormone imbalance, insufficient sleep, infections, and allergies are some of the most well-known causes of acne. But did you know that it is mostly due to skin bacteria, digestion, and gut bacteria? The truth is that Acne is a sign of underlying inflammation in our gut. If the digestive system isn't functioning properly, toxins can also leave the body through the skin.
Not always. In fact, cleaning your face too often or vigorously can make your acne worse. Severe acne calls for more than simply excellent hygiene and using the right products, it needs to be treated from within too.
In one to two months, your acne will start to get better. However, studies have indicated that within 12 to 24 months, 80% to 90% of individuals experience relapse. It is not a permanent solution and has serious side effects. There are better and natural alternatives to treat acne rather than using drugs offered by most dermatologists.
Avoid the consumption of inflammatory foods such as dairy, gluten, sugar, etc. It would also be beneficial to keep a log to look for patterns between the foods you are eating and the effect it has on your skin.

It’s absolutely possible! Detoxing, taking probiotics, and changing your skincare routine and diet can greatly help. Consider consulting with a holistic doctor to help you find and treat the root cause.
Don't wash your face more than once daily. Skip morning face wash and try double cleansing at night to boost your skin's properties and rid of excess oils. Don’t use harsh chemicals and no wildly alkaline or acidic products. Use gentle ingredients that give your skin the tender love and care it needs.
We never recommend using a dermaroller on active acne. This will only further aggravate the existing acne and spread the infection.
Less is more when you have acne, and the three essential products to resolve it are GAB’s Natural AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser, Retinol Serum, and the Vitamin C + Squalane Repair Cream. All of these are proven to treat and fight acne.
Hair Loss
Severe stress, heredity, conditions including thyroid disease and anemia, nutritional changes, hormonal changes, vitamin D insufficiency, and the adverse effects of certain medications (ex. chemotherapy) are just a few of the factors that can cause hair loss.
Anyone can experience hair loss as it is mostly triggered by hormones, aging, and genetics. But it often occurs faster and more extensively in men.
Many studies have found that DHT (dihydrotestosterone) in men is the culprit behind Male Pattern Baldness. If you have a genetic sensitivity to this hormone, your hair follicle begins to endure shorter and shorter growth periods as the DHT binds to receptors.
High-stress levels can leave detrimental effects on your hair, as cortisol can definitely affect your hair follicles' growth phases and shorten them, deprive them, and essentially kill your follicles to the point of no return.
In the world of hair growth, there are numerous things on the market like PRP treatments, hair growth serums, and minoxidil. While there's some merit to a few of these products, none can really boast results like the dermaroller.
According to a case study in 2013, microneedling was deemed an extremely effective tool for hair regrowth and even surpassed minoxidil in terms of hair growth results after one week of use. Dermarollers work by triggering a healing response that strengthens hair follicles and stimulates hair growth. Over time, hair grows thicker because it's receiving more nutrients and is exposed to more oxygen.
We recommend starting with the 0.5mm and working your way up as you progress. Learn how to use the dermaroller on the scalp here,
If you are aiming to boost the benefits of microneedling for the scalp, we suggest applying GAB’s Hair Growth Spray or fresh aloe vera from the plant.
It takes consistency to see results and it may take quite a few hair growth phases before you start seeing results. It may take as early as 6 months to a year.
Aside from a bit of stinging, there are no serious side effects to dermarolling your scalp. Always be sure to disinfect your dermaroller prior to and after use to avoid chances of infection.
