Now’s The Time To Get A Facial

orig

I got the Lierac Magnificence Age Defense Facial at PHYTO Universe ($200 for 55 minutes) yesterday and I feel like a new person! So many layers of exfoliating, firming, and hydrating serums and creams were applied that I left the spa with bare skin that was actually beaming (seriously…my skin was glowing…). I will say though that this facial is supposed to include extractions – I never do extractions. I have very sensitive skin and extractions always end up leaving my skin a big red mess. If you have sensitive skin I would highly recommend not getting extractions done or speaking with your dermatologist first if your pores are very clogged/you have a lot of blackheads and strongly feel you need to undergo manual extraction. For me steam and facial massage are enough to open my pores.

In any case if you’re going to get a facial only one time this year, now is the time. As we make the transition from the warm to cold weather most everyone’s skin goes a little crazy. Mine was going in and out of breakouts and I couldn’t seem to exfoliate enough. When you get a facial you’re getting professional strength exfoliation and very intensive hydration – healthy skin NEEDS to be hydrated! Facials also help with circulation as they involve facial massages and steam thereby increasing blood flow for healthier skin. Getting a facial now will help ensure that you’re going off of a clean base as we head into the cold. Make sure to exfoliate at least once a week, get a humidifier, and invest into deeply hydrating moisturizers to keep up the glowing boost you get from your facial!
