Frequently asked questions

what is a facial?

Much like the rest of your body, your skin needs to be detoxed and rejuvenated. The goal of a facial is to exfoliate the skin, and detox any impurities to reveal youthful, and healthy skin. This is done through a combination of massaging techniques, steaming, masking, and extractions.

Each facial is customized to meet your skin’s needs.

how often should i get a facial?

We recommend booking facials once a month. However, you can discuss your skin’s needs with your esthetician to determine a treatment plan.

what are the benefits of facials?

Getting routine facials can help unclog and minimize the appearance of pores, reduce wrinkles, increase blood flow, promote cell renewal, reduce acne, reduce hyperpigmentation (dark spots), and give you a natural glow.

Should i expect to breakout after a service?

We use products with active ingredients, which can increase your skin cell turnover rate and lead to your skin “purging.” All of the toxins and excess gunk under your skin could possibly rise to the surface. We recommend increasing water intake in the 24 hours after a service to help purge toxins and avoid a breakout.

What are chemical peels?

A chemical peel is a process that exfoliates the skin and can aid with the aging process, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, eliminating dark spots, and repairing sun damage. They are performed with the intention to remove the outermost layers of skin through controlled “injury” to the skin, which creates a peeling effect.

can i book a vajacial after a wax?

Definitely! However, we recommend waiting 7-10 days post wax, as ingrown hairs start to show during that timeframe.

My cycle started. is it ok to get a wax?

Yes, though we recommend waiting a few days after your cycle ends to receive a wax. During and around your cycle, you are more sensitive and waxing may be more painful. If you choose to wax during your cycle, please only do so if you are experiencing light flow, and are wearing a tampon.
