Skincare Steps
BASIC SKIN CARE โป๏ธ
๐๏ธ To select a skin care routine, we highly recommend booking a facial with a knowledgeable, certified professional. Estheticians have the experience and training to recommend professional treatments that boost your results as well as educated guidance for your home skin care routine.
To enhance your knowledge, weโve compiled the essential steps for a skin care routine:
(The choice of cosmetics depends on the needs of the skin and the season)
1๏ธโฃ Cleanse
Twice per day, morning and night.
A thorough cleanse clears your skin of oil and debris that can lead to clogged pores and dullness. It also prepares your complexion for further treatment, making it easier for your skin to absorb the beneficial ingredients in the rest of your routine.
2๏ธโฃ Tone: Essence, Facial Mist or Toner
Twice per day, morning and night.
Toning completes the cleansing process by conditioning your skin and adding beneficial vitamins and minerals to your complexion. Unlike alcohol-based toners of the past, todayโs toners, essences and facial mists support the effectiveness of your cleanser by adding replenishing ingredients that support your skinโs health.
3๏ธโฃ Exfoliate
Once or twice per week.
Exfoliating is essential to encourage healthy skin cell turnover, eliminate buildup and relieve pore congestion. Exfoliants comprise gentle chemical, enzymatic and physical varieties for home care, as well as more potent peels and treatments which must be administered by a professional.
4๏ธโฃ Treat: Serum, Concentrate or Facial Oil
Twice per day, morning and night.
Your daily routine should include a serum, concentrate or facial oil. These potent formulas contain concentrated amounts of active ingredients to target concerns and neutralize the effects of environmental stressors.
5๏ธโฃ Moisturize
Twice per day, morning and night.
Used daily, moisturizers keep skin soft, supple and protected. Moisturizing not only targets and treats specific issues in the top layers of the skin, it also provides necessary support for the skinโs natural lipid barrier. A strong and healthy barrier enables the skin to better retain moisture and repel external irritants. Remember, even oily skin needs moisture and hydration!
6๏ธโฃ Protect/SPF
Daily.
The final and most crucial step in every skin care routine is sun protection. Daily and consistent sunscreen use helps protect skin against the damaging rays that contribute to skin irritation, premature aging and the formation of certain skin cancers. Year-round, apply a broad spectrum sunscreen or SPF moisturizer to shield your skin from exposure.
In addition to an effective home care routine, customized professional treatments are crucial to elevate your skinโs health ๐ฆ Spa treatments combine professional techniques and products with the technical skills of a licensed esthetician to provide enhanced results.
