Have you ever wanted to get a facial, but didn’t know where to start? We all know what facials are, usually someone putting some sort of seaweed colored product on your face with a brush that may or may not be for painting, right? Well, I am here to tell you that this is not exactly how getting a facial goes down; although, some of the products are actually made with seaweed, but that’s a topic for another day. This is your complete guide to everything you need to know about facials – not to mention a description of the array of facials offered here in Longmont, Colorado.
FACIAL PURPOSE
The purpose of a facial is to rid the skin of any impurities caused by hormones, the environment, and makeup. The facial is here to rejuvenate the skin by restoring it with vitamins, minerals, and nutrients the skin needs. The skin is reborn through steam, massage, and relaxation. The facial’s main purpose is to take care of you by inviting you to take time to lay back and fall into an hour of pure bliss. Your skin will thank you when Vitamins A, C, and E are restored – along with peptides to keep your skin healthy and youthful. A facial ensures that your skin is more radiant and refreshed than ever before. Pro Tip: During a brief consultation prior to your treatment, it is important to discuss with your esthetician any skin concerns and questions you may have. Also, be sure to discuss any medications and products you are currently using because this has a large impact on your skin. These things help to prepare for your first facial and will help your esthetician to decide which treatment is the best fit for your skin care concerns and needs.
