Benefits of a Facial Routine
Facials can help with obvious issues such as acne, dehydration and dullness but the long term benefits go much deeper. The initial effect of a facial helps the skin look and feel brighter, smoother and refreshed. The long term benefits to regular facials prevent aging, reversal of hyperpigmention and scarring and stress reduction. Take time to take care of your skin as well as your mind. Wether you want to relax and de-stress or have an active conversation about your skin and life, we are here for you!

Benefits of Microdermabrasion
We offer Microdermabrasion in Athens GA.
Microdermabrasion sloughs off the dead and dull surface layers of the skin, stimulating an increase in collagen production and rejuvenation. Many patients see dramatic improvements in the tone, texture, and color of treated areas after just one treatment. This treatment also helps with multiple issuses incuding ;
- Fine Lines
-Clogged pores
-Oily or dull skin
-Enlarged pores
-Age spots and hyperpigmentation
Microdermabrasion is appropriate for cosmetic problems associated with aging skin, such as sun damage, age spots and other types of discoloration and fine lines that occur early in the aging process. Microdermabrasion also benefits those with oily skin, reducing minor acne scarring. A single treatment is appropriate when you have a special occasion on the calendar and want your skin to look healthy and refreshed.
Treatments should be every 6-8 weeks but can done as soon as every 2 weeks. This non invasive process tackles flaws at the surface level, treating only the outermost layer of skin. The skin is not wounded or abraded past the epidermis.Your skin may be pink after microdermabrasion, but these side effects typically last only a day. Limiting both sun and wind exposure for 24-48 hours after treaments is also suggested.

We wish you the best this summer and remember to enjoy the little things.

I get asked constantly how should you go about reapply sunscreen through out the average day, especially with those who wear makeup. When you think of sunscreen, your mind probably jumps to a thick, goopy lotion that smells way too strong and feels overly sticky. Protecting your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays doesn’t have to be a negative experience. Sunscreen comes in various applications from primers, foundations, light weight sprays and my current favorite, powder sunscreen.
Powder Sunscreen helps protect your skin, absorb excess oil, and even out your complexion without feeling heavy. Powder sunscreens are perfect for reapplying over makeup thought the day. They work great for oily skin or just taking away shine as well. I prefer a translucent SPF powder but they come in various shades.
The current favorite Eminence, Organic Sun Defense Minerals SPF 30. It comes with a built in brush making it super easy on the go.
If you are frustrated with light eyelashes or eyebrows, tinting is just the solution for you. Our semi-permanent tinting products are designed to nourish the hairs as it tints. The tint also pigments those tiny blonde hairs that you dont see until they are tinted, resulting in a fuller thicker appearance. Imagine not having to worry about mascara or filling in your brows for 4-6 weeks! So come on in out of the cold. We are here making life easier one tint at a time.
