A facial should incorporate a through cleaning, exfoliation and a mask that is appropriate for your skin. That alone is a facial. I enjoy including massage into a Full Facial. You will experience a foot massage, shoulder, face and neck massage. This will take approximately 75 minutes. I believe that education is the most important aspect of a facial. Understanding your own skin and how it functions allows you to better care for it.

It is recommended, and the most beneficial, to have a facial every 4 to 6 weeks. By seeing your esthetician on a regular basis the two of you can work to bring your skin into a healthy state, and keep it that way. As the seasons change and as you mature your skin will have different needs and issues. The longer you go without addressing your skins needs, the longer the recovery time.
I believe there are several ways in which my facials are different. One: I love what I do. Two: It is my goal that my client will never have another facial by anyone else that will compare to their time with me. Three: I believe in education very strongly. I want my clients to know their skin and its needs. Four: I am not product loyal. I know many lines of products, and have catalogs of many more. I want to help each client get the product that will service their particular needs. That means if a client is loyal to one line of skin care, then I help them find the products within that line that will work the best for them.
Over the years I have found products within many skin care lines that I love, so I have certain products that I believe to be high performers. I also recommend other products that can be obtained on the Internet and I am always looking for something new, that will be safe and perform well for a reasonable price.
