Raise your hand if you’ve ever had to be persuaded to get a facial, the answer is probably no. Who would turn down an hour of relaxation combined with top-knotch products. The truth is, facials are more than just a form of self-care, there are actually some truly excellent benefits to scheduling a facial. Here are just a few of the reasons.
Getting a Professional Skin Care Analysis
I’ll be the first one to say, call in the experts when it comes to skin care. During a facial it is necessary to remove all of your makeup which allows an esthetician to see your natural skin and to take a deeper dive into your skin type. During a facial, your skin will be looked at under a magnifier with lighting that allows for accurate assessment of your skin. An esthetician not only targets your facial towards your specific skin type but they will also recommend products that you can include in your daily routine. What we believe about our skin-type isn’t always the case, products might be the contributing factor to oily skin, breakouts, or dry skin. Having a professional analysis gives us the tools and education to help care for our skin in the right way.
Strong Exfoliation
Even the best at-home exfoliation products and routines can’t quite do what a facial can do. Facials include treatments like dermaplaning, chemical peels, and scrubs to get past the surface to unclog pores and remove dead skin cells. During a facial the exfoliation process is much deeper which then allows skin to take in the products you're using and to better retain hydration.
The Glow
Facials include a massage, warm steam and treatment which are all used to help increase circulation allowing a better blood flow to the skin. And, when there is a better flow to the skin it creates a natural and beautiful glow. Facials also remove that layer of dead and damaged skin allowing for a nourishment and hydration which again creates glowing skin!
While facials can often feel like a splurge they are a vital aspect of taking care of your skin while pampering yourself. The benefits of facials are truly endless!
