Facial Aftercare 101: How to Keep Your Skin Nourished and Vibrant

Oct 25

There is no other feeling like stepping out of a spa after an invigorating and revitalizing facial treatment. Your skin will feel soft and supple as though you’ve put on a new layer. One of the first instincts that most people have after seeing the end result of their facial is making sure it lasts longer or at least until their next appointment.

Whether you plan to get monthly facials or simply want to keep things up until an upcoming event, these tips can help you maintain that facial glow.

3 Step Trick to Make Your Post Facial Glow Last Longer

1. Cleanse

Cleansing your face is a standard skin care practice that everyone should do. Simple things like washing your face can affect the appearance and health of your skin. But instead of reaching for the bathroom soap, it is best to use a facial cleanser to help retain the benefits of your facial.

For a non-complicated face cleansing process, we recommend cleansers like KLAVUU Pure Pearlsation Revitalizing Facial Cleansing Foam. Foam cleansers like these can help unclog pores, remove makeup, and get rid of dead skin cells and buildup.

2. Moisturize

After washing your face thoroughly, you need to keep your skin moisturized and hydrated. Using quality moisturizers like the Age Defying Caviar Cream by OxygenCeuticals makes a great difference. The antioxidants in such creams can help skin restoration long-term and are great after facial treatments for anti-aging.

3. Protect

Lastly – and probably the most important step – we have sun protection.

A lot of skin damage can be credited to prolonged sun exposure without proper protection. And when you’ve just finished a facial, your skin would be more sensitive to the sun’s harmful UV rays. We trust TP Sun Cream SPF 50 by OxygenCeuticals for keeping skin nourished and safe after a nice facial.

Make-Up After Facial: Yay or Nay?

It is best to keep your skin clear and clean just right after a facial. That is why facial treatments should be scheduled a week ahead before an important event.

But if makeup is a must, keep it light and apply it at least two hours after a facial.

Post Facial Blemishes: What Happened?

Blemishes and breakouts are possible after a facial but are often minimal and manageable. If you find yourself in this situation, there are possible causes to consider.

One is the type of facial you choose. Not all facials treat the same things. Some facials are solely meant to hydrate and others are meant to prevent or help ease acne breakouts. It is normal to get minimal breakouts after treatments such as chemical peels. But other facials such as those for hydration and rejuvenation shouldn’t cause any breakouts. If the latter was your facial of choice and you still got blemishes after, it leads to reason 2.

The final probable cause is poor treatment. Make sure you get your facials in Scottsdale from a well-recommended beauty studio such as Aloe Beauty Spa so you get the best treatment for your buck.
