Taking care of your skin should be a vital part of your daily routine. While following a good at home skin care regime is excellent, you should also seek professional care. Yes, going to a spa can seem unnecessary and pricey, but you should know it is very worthwhile and can be affordable.
Know Your Skin
Do you tend to have oily skin, dryer skin, or normal skin? These are some questions a good Chicago skin care spa should ask you before booking your facial. Each first-time facial experience should start with a series of questions to make sure you get the most qualified esthetician and best facial for your skin.
Examination
A lot of higher-end salons like to have a licensed esthetician look at your skin before giving you a skin-service. This is their way of analyzing your skin to see what treatments are needed. At this pre-service skin-check, they should look at your skin with and without makeup. This evaluation of your skin gives the esthetician a thorough look at exactly what is going on with your skin’s surface as well as what is going on under the surface of your skin. This evaluation allows your esthetician to make a recommendation for a professional facial or other treatment based on their examination.
Facials
If you have never had a facial, then it is vital for you to educate yourself as to what one is before scheduling an appointment. Sometimes, it is the fear of the unknown that has prevented you from booking a facial. A facial is a beauty treatment to renovate your skin by giving you a clearer and brighter complexion. When you get a spa facial, you should get the added bonus of a massage. Facials can last as little as 15 minutes, or last as long as an hour, or even more. You should always consult the spa you choose to get more details about their facial services and what they recommend for you.
