Spa days are not just for summer skin. We transition our closets, adjust our haircare regimens and opt for warm jewel tones on our digits, all to welcome in the fall/winter seasons. Spa-pering your skin during the colder months will not only reward you mentally, but you’ll be ahead of the game for those long-awaited but quickly approaching warmer sunny days. A trip to the spa every 2-3 months will make a big impact on your skin.
For a great facial experience, expect your spa professional to ask lots of question about your home regiment. Once the consultation is done you will be given a half robe and proceed with the first of your services: cleansing the skin. The next step will be a skin analysis. At this point, they will give you a few recommendations to help improve your skin. There will be some extractions to remove any clogged pores. Followed by a mask, face massage, toners, serums and a moisturizer. Results: Glowing skin!
Skincare for the body is amazing. It’s a great time to relax with a much-needed treatment. There are so many body treatments out there so be sure to read what each service offers to find the best one for your skin. Look for a spa that offers a shower to remove body treatments. Since we put our skin through a lot with different types of product we use and our daily activities, a spa body scrub is a way to slough off the old skin revealing a fresh layer of skin.
Recommended upkeep: It’s a good idea to have these treatments every 3-4 months, followed by at home care 2-3 times a week.
This is the busy season for spa’s but you can still find some great deals. Exfoliation services are the best. The most popular body scrubs this time of year: Pumpkin, Apple Spice, and Peppermint. Advanced services like Hydrotherapy facials for a deep cleanse, Microdermabrasion/Chemical Peels for exfoliation, and Laser hair removal, you will need more than one treatment, so keep an eye out for package deals.
