Many people stick to beauty and skincare campaigns, but how many people can honestly say they do their facials regularly? They’re the often overlooked little sister to facial massagers, but they can make a real difference to your complexion. If you want to know why facials are so great, read on for some pointers.
Firstly, facials are great because they help remove toxins from the skin. The downside is that you need to remember it book a spa appointment a few weeks before any major event to give the skin time to heal, but other than that, it’s a great way to get ready in advance. Just as you might cut and color your hair or spray tan before an event where you want to look your best, facials are key to a perfect face.
Of course, the face is what most people focus on. If you decide to get a pedicure, very few people, realistically, will admire your supple heels or perfectly pushed cuticles. But your face is what people will see and talk to, and it will show up in all photos. So it is important that the face is your main focus when working on your beauty preparations.
Facial creates the perfect base for your makeup. It keeps the skin primed grooming to apply, as it is smoother and in better condition. Dead skin cells can quickly accumulate on the face, and the face is one of the most common areas of the body to develop combination skin. An oily T-zone combined with dry patches on your cheeks or chin can be a nightmare if you stick to one foundation, as it’s a constant balancing act. A facial will restore that balance which means you can use the same product all over your face with confidence.
In fact, the best facials mean that you probably feel confident enough to go makeup-free. The shine is unmistakable, and with beautiful, blemish-free skin, no one will believe you’ve gone barefaced. This new, rejuvenated skin will be a mystery to everyone, but only you need to know about your secret treatment. For some reason, facials have been undervalued over the years, overshadowed by their seemingly more glamorous and flashy beauty treatments, but in the hands of a true professional, your face can look its best ever.
