Did you know that we all have a unique lip impression that is like no one else? Dental babe, your vermillion border is a distinctive line that connects your lips to the rest of your face and it's important to pamper!
Let us introduce our Dental Bestie, Vermillion Cosmetics. We caught up with Caitlin Nickie, the chief operating officer and cofounder of Vermillion to find out what her purpose is behind this incredible lip line.
Caitlin and her business partner, Dr. George Kourakin, a cosmetic dentist with 40 years of experience, believe that enhancing the dental and lip care experience will impact people both aesthetically and emotionally.
Caitlin’s journey has been built from struggle and pain. She has overcome poverty, instability and abuse. Throughout all of it, she remains positive because she knew her smile was all she had to help her be successful.
We asked Caitlin what she thought was the biggest lip struggle and she said dry, chapped lips. Hydration is super important and she wants you to pamper pouts. This is why she came up with the Lip Prophy (TM). Rehydrating your smile by exfoliating and hydrating takes only minutes, plus it’s fun with a purpose!
Did you know that you should be using serums on your lips instead of chapstick? We tell our patients all the things they need to do like brush and floss, but are we helping them make their lips healthy too? The outside of their peri-oral region is just as important. Chapsticks were not invented for the every day use by the average consumer. They were invented for police and firefighters to protect them from environmental elements. Lip serums penetrate and allow your lips to breathe.
There are so many health benefits to protecting our lips. By exfoliating, we get color restoration, increased blood circulation and collagen regeneration.
Her goal is to help dental professionals like you educate patients and assist them in embracing their smile by focusing on the health of not only their teeth and gums, but their lips too!
At Vermillion, they are offering virtual Lip and Learns where you and your office can sample the product, learn all about it and then pamper your patients. For more information, Cailtlin wants you to call (833) 837-6455 or email info@vermillioncosmetics.com to schedule your Lip and Learn today.
