GUYS LOVE AND NEED FACIALS TOO!

Men who get facials, in my opinion, rank right up there with men who wear pink, because, like men who wear pink, men who get facials don't give a flying fig what anyone else thinks.  Instead what they care about is the look and feel of their skin and of course the feeling of being pampered. Suffering from ingrown hairs, acne, razor bumps, discoloration, large pores and blackheads to name drop a few of the skin issues that men deal with, is totally unnecessary, especially if the condition leaves you feeling less than comfortable in your own skin which is why Estheticians have seen a huge increase in male clients. It doesn't matter who you are, man woman teen, child or baby, touch is important to the human spirit just as the care of our skin, isn't reserved for females only. Yes, we all need skincare so that we can promote skin health. So gent's don't put it off any longer, pick up the phone and schedule a skincare appointment after all, why walk a...

It's not the brand or the quality of your makeup tools, it's the cleanliness that counts! It's nice to be able to afford the well know Brand names when buying makeup tools, but the truth is it doesn’t matter if you have the original BeautyBlender® or a beauty sponge knock-off. Mac Makeup brushes or Elf brushes from the Dollar Tree.  However, if you want to have the optimum in skin health, your makeup tools need to be spot cleaned between each use and deep cleaned at once per week, and I can't stress that enough.  The perfect breeding ground for bacterial growth to occur, dirty makeup tools can cause you to experience breakouts, skin irritations, full-fledged acne or worse fungal or staph infections and pink eye to name drop a few. What I'm about to share with you next, will hopefully make things a game-changer for you in terms of making it a commitment to keep your makeup tools squeaky clean. The fact is using dirty makeup brushes, applicators,...

Hylunia's Healing & Restoring Cream Anyone that suffers from eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis or severe dryness, will agree that the irritation brought about as a result of any one of this conditions, can at times be almost unbearable.

So, what should you look for when visiting a Day spa as a new or repeat client that ensures that infection control is being practiced? Here is a list of ten things, that should be practiced by your Esthetician.  1/ The obvious should be a clean spa environment, that doesn't smell like mold, trash or dirty laundry.
