People ask me all the time, "Why should I get a facial?" and I'm going to tell you.
Benefits of Facials:
- Deep cleanses
- Exfoliates
- Increases circulation and detoxifies
- Relaxes the senses, nerves, and muscles
- Stimulates the skin functions and metabolism
- Slows down premature aging
- Treats conditions such as dryness, oiliness, or redness
- Softens wrinkles and aging lines
- Helps clear up blemishes and minor acne
Facials are great to get every 4-6 weeks for maintenance. Where else are you going to get a professional analyzing your skin and using products and treatments that will be effective for YOU. All the products used and chosen are tailored to your skin type, conditions, and sensitivities.
Many people have very stressful lives and who wouldn't enjoy an hour of deep relaxation while an esthetician works on diminishing your facial concerns. Facials are great for teenagers with acne because the skin therapist will perform special treatments and get them on the best skin care regimen possible for their skin type. They'll teach them how to use the products so that they will be the most effective. Some of the products are very concentrated and you can only get them from an esthetician. The products are very effective. The best thing for your skin is to get good quality products containing good ingredients to keep your skin looking its best.
Now if you're thinking that a facial will solve all of your skin care problems, then you're wrong. We can not fix anything but simply diminish it. The way your skin looks is 30% getting facials and 70% the effort you put in at home using the products as you're directed.
Facials are so relaxing, I don't know if ill ever go without getting one again. I'm a strong believer in DIY and at home spa days but everyone's skin (and maybe their sanity) can benefit from a special facial treatment once a month.
