Get your bronze on!

facelogicspa — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 21:12:28 +0000

Facelogic is rolling out airbrush spray tanning and our customers are loving it! With sold out launch events in many of our locations that are offering the service, we’ve discovered that consumers are finally embracing the need to protect their skin while still achieving that sun-kissed look.

So why airbrush tan? It’s the safe alternative to natural sun bathing or indoor tanning and you’ll still achieve the same beautiful bronze. Sun tanning can lead to skin damage, premature aging, sunspots and skin cancer, which are caused by the sun’s harmful rays. Instead of baking your skin and aging yourself unnecessarily, it’s time to embrace a faux tan from Facelogic Spa. We’ll get you event-ready in no time…

Get a bronzed look without the long-term side effects

Protect your skin from the sun, or you could end up like this!

Just because the temps have started to drop doesn’t mean you have to lose that summer glow. If the porcelain look isn’t your thing, even though you are naturally fair-skinned, you can still have a beautiful bronze year-round without sacrificing your skin. At Facelogic Spa, we love skin in all shades, but there is one shade we don’t encourage or enjoy seeing and that is sun-tanned/burnt skin.

We encourage routine skincare and services in order to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation and improve skin texture and tone. And when your skin is exposed to UVA and UVB rays, the resulting tan (or burn) is the body’s desperate attempt to protect itself from the sun’s harmful rays. UVA and UVB rays are the number one cause of fine lines and wrinkles, collagen breakdown, hyperpigmentation and in many cases, skin cancer. So all of your facials and skin maintenance prove futile when you bake in the sun all day or even lay in a tanning bed for a few minutes.

So how do you get that bronzed Giselle-look without the damaging long term effects? We’ve got some great products that you should try:

Celebrity favorite, Xen-Tan’s extensive array of sunless tanning products are a must-try product if you want a natural instant tan. Our favorite product is Xen-Tan’s Deep Bronze Luxe, it’s paraben-free, fast drying and will give you a gorgeous tan for about a week!
For a short-term bronze, try gloMineral’s gloBody Bronzer. It’s great for an overall bronzing glow or a night out on the town. Plus it’s not permanent, so if you only want one night of tan, it washes off with soap.

With all of the great sunless tanning products on the market including some of our favorites at Facelogic Spas, there is no reason to bake in the sun or the tanning bed anymore. We’re all trying to look younger and have great skin, so there is no reason to jeopardize your complexion by tanning!

Remember, SPF 15 or higher should be worn at all times (even when you’re just going to the grocery store), if you need a bit of natural daily Vitamin D, get your 10 minutes of sun exposure at non peak times before 9:30 am and after 4:00 pm…and embrace your natural complexion! Porcelain is beautiful! If you need a bit of bronze for an event or for your everyday look, try some of these products.

Clean up those brows!

facelogicspa — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 18:02:48 +0000

As many of you know, well-shaped brows can make you look instantly better. They help to draw attention to your eyes and give you that immediate put together look, even without much fuss with makeup. if you’ve been a dedicated waxer, you know that spending a couple of minutes with your esthetician one to two times per month can make a world of difference. For those of you who haven’t ventured into the world of waxing, or for those who have and left disappointed, here’s some quick tips on how to get that great shape that flatters your facial features.

Brow Shaping 101:

1 – Natural is IN. Out are the days when super thin, penciled in eyebrows are in. If you’ve tweezed or waxed them too thin and they aren’t growing back? Good news, products like Peter Thomas Roth’s NEW Brows to Die For can help stimulate brow hair growth.

2 – A good arch will make all the difference. Everyone’s brows will have a unique arch based on the way the hair grows. Consult with your esthetician about the right shape for your face. A good rule of thumb for measuring where your brows should start and end? Hold a makeup brush vertically along the side of your nose. Then use the side of the brush as the marker of where the brow should begin. Next, angle the makeup brush outward so that the bottom end is against your nose, and the top and is even with the iris of your eye – this is the point where the brow should arch. Finally, angle the brush out even more toward the outermost corner of your eye – that’s where the brow should end.

3 – Brows aren’t perfect and often times you might need to fill in some gaps. Use a good brow pencil, like the gloBrow from gloMinerals to lightly feather in color to the areas where it’s needed.

Once you have created the shape that is right for your face, you’ll need to get them done every 2 to 4 weeks depending on your hair growth and your level of OCD with stray hairs . I get mine cleaned up every 2 weeks and it makes all the difference!

If you don’t get your brows done, you should try it out – it’s a great way to clean up your look!
