Steps of a Basic Facial
People Get Facials For All Sorts of Reasons
Skin is the largest organ of the body. We need to take care of it just like our other organs. Your face is what people see. It needs care and maintenance. Adding facials to your skincare regimen achieves thorough deep cleansing, helps prevent blemishes (clogged pores) and softens fine lines. This will prevent premature aging. Also, possible detection of precancerous growth. It’s never too late to start!
Here are a few benefits:
- Stress Relief – Facial massages release endorphins that help you to relax
- Skincare – Facials cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the skin, and promote new skin cell growth
- Anti-aging – Facials can help reduce the appearance of age spots, fine lines, can help reverse aging through nutrients, exfoliation, and massage
- Hydration – Cleansing the face helps hydrate the skin and maintain its pH levels, in turn help the skin retain water and products
