PROFESSIONAL TIPS FOR YOUR AT HOME FACIAL IN TOLEDO

Enhance the treatment:

Add a facial massage. Before you apply the Hydrating Mask Perform a light massage with the hydralox serum or other serum that provides a slip. Optional: Grapeseed oil, Argon oil, Coconut Oil ( avoid if you are prone to breakouts) Remove excess oil before applying the mask.

Apply any of Circadia’s functional mists on a cotton round to the face before and after the enzyme treatment.

Apply a 2 sprays of any mist into your hands before each application of the vitamin c serum.

Performing a massage. Always work upward and outward, avoid pulling down on the skin. Gently do figure eight around the orbital bone (eye area). Vertical line on the forehead upward are a great massage technique along small circles on the forehead. A good technique for lifting the chin is to use the back of your hand, underneath the chin, gently lifting upwards.. increasing the speed. Then continue lifting upward with the cheeks.

Avoid applying strong of pressure if you are prone to broken capillaries or have persistent redness.

ADD A SPECIAL TOUCH TO YOUR AT-HOME FACIAL:

Use Cucumber on your eyes (sliced thin) to reduce puffiness and provide a cooling effect. Teabags can also be a great way to reduce puffiness and are so relaxing.

Make it a spa moment, turn on some relaxing music, maybe a glass of wine, just sit back and relax this is your time to take care and pamper yourself

Do a lip treatment: Go to the pantry and get a tsp of sugar and mix in honey to create a gentle lip scrub. Perform this before applying the hydrating mask, then follow with a light layer of the mask over the lips.

THINGS TO AVOID WITH AN AT-HOME FACIAL:

Avoid giving yourself Extractions: I know it’s hard not to pick off those stinkers but less is better when it comes to picking at your skin, especially if you are used to having an esthetician do it. Picking often ends in small scarring of the skin. Increases inflammation and can even spread bacteria making the breakout worse. Try using Benzoyl Peroxide products like circadian Nighttime Control to help control the break out by killing bacteria inside the acne lesion.
