Facelogic Spa

Whether or not you watched last night’s 82nd Annual Academy Awards, unless you live under a rock, you have most likely seen a celebrity or two in your life via the internet or gossip magazines. We’re award show junkies at Facelogic and we love to check in and see how beautiful the stars look at every event! While we definitely get excited about who wore the best dress and who looked like a mess, we love to see who is ‘looking old’ and who has the most beautiful skin and makeup.

You can imagine our excitement last night when we saw the likes of Sandra Bullock, Meryl Streep and Sarah Jessica Parker looking gorgeous, age appropriate and with beautiful, flawless skin! What’s the secret to looking beautiful as you age? Keeping your skin in shape! While you can opt for (and many stars do) less natural treatments involving injections, there are many less expensive/less invasive options that will certainly do the trick. Celebrities have to look camera-ready at all times and they do this by getting regular facials and exfoliation treatments and sticking to a good skincare routine and healthy diet (plus they have some very talented makeup artists prepping them for these soirees).

Want to look like a star? There are plenty more affordable ways to get glowing, healthy skin on a budget! Here are some tricks to try at home:

- Incorporate exfoliation treatments - exfoliation treatments help to slough off dead surface skin cells and make way for brighter, new skin to shine through. Depending on your skin, you can exfoliate 2 to 3 times per week.

- Moisturize and protect – hydrated skin will give off a more dewy-supple look and adding SPF to your skincare routine everyday will ensure that you are fending off the sun and protecting yourselves from sun damage (which leads to fine lines and wrinkles).

- Add a little color - whether or not you are going to the grocery store or for an evening out, adding a touch of tinted moisturizer, foundation of powder will give you a more flawless complexion and make you look awake. Plus when you throw in a bit of mascara and blush, you’ll be looking ‘ready to go’ in no time and these 3 products will take under 3 minutes to apply!

There are plenty of skincare tips that the stars use to always look great, but routine skincare (starting with washing your face daily) is the best place to start. The more you focus on exfoliating, hydrating and protecting your skin, the longer you can fend off the signs of aging.

Embrace your age! If you need a little help…we’re always ready to pamper you!

Depending on where you reside…spring is just around the corner! Springtime – my favorite time of year – the season to start anew. What better place to start than with your beauty routine? The winter’s harsh conditions have taken a toll on your skin and your relentless moisturizing and exfoliating can only do so much in the dry, cold weather. As the winter weather subsides (hopefully soon!) and the days become filled with warmth and sunshine your skin will begin to feel the positive effects.

So how do you jumpstart your beauty routine to look radiant for the spring? Here are a couple of insider’s tips from Facelogic Spa that will give you a spring-fresh look:

Clean up those brows – whether you wax, thread or pluck, having well-groomed brows will dramatically change your look.

Rejuvenate your skin – your skin is recovering from the winter and finally once again moist. However, receiving a facial is one of the best ways to speed up the rejuvenation process and bring your skin back to normal. Facials help to cleanse, exfoliate, re-hydrate and firm up your skin leaving it feeling dewy and fresh. It’s the best way to prep your skin for spring.

Plump your pout – instead of always reaching for your favorite red lipstick, change it up a bit this spring with a bright colored gloss. Want a bigger pout? Try a lip plumper over a colored gloss or lipstick for fuller effect.

Protect yourself from the sun – with the cold weather and lack of sun over the past couple of months, your skin has had little exposure to the powerful UV rays and is more vulnerable to sun burns and sun damage. As springtime warmth begins to lift spirits and lure you out of your hibernation, protect yourself and your skin by applying a sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher – sun exposure causes aging and could lead to cancer so it is important to be protected.

The best way to celebrate the coming of spring is with a new clean look. So take a risk, try something you haven’t in the past!

Spring is here! Get out and enjoy a bit of sunshine…just don’t forget your sunscreen!

We get it, not everybody has an abundance of time for a fully dramatic daily skincare ritual. However, you can get good looking skin without too much hassle.  Here’s some quick tips for what you should be doing to care for your skin on a daily basis.

Step 1: Wash your face (AM and PM)! Cleansing is the most basic and important part of skincare, however many people skip this step because they are too tired or too lazy. Work in a morning and evening cleanse so you can start with a fresh, clean slate!

**Tip: if you shower every morning when you wake up, or every evening before going to bed, put your cleanser in your shower!

Step 2: Exfoliate (AM or PM not both!). Depending on your skin, you probably won’t exfoliate everyday. However, exfoliating is a great way to slough off the dead surface skin cells and exfoliation leads to a clearer, smoother and more radiant complexion.

**Tip: we recommend exfoliating with either a chemical exfoliant or mechanical exfoliant 2-4 times per week. Check with your skin care therapist for the best exfoliant for your skin type.

Step 3: Moisturize/Protect (AM and PM). Lastly, it’s important to follow your exfoliation with a mosturizer and SPF before going about your daily activities. Depending on your skin type, in the evening, you might want to try a moisturizer that is richer and targeted for night-time use to help protect and treat your skin through the night.

**Tip: look for an SPF with UVA and UVB (broad spectrum) protection with an SPF of at least 30 for your face. Use daily regardless of the weather outside.

These steps are easy, take about 4 minutes max, and can be done before getting your day started and before tucking yourself into bed . For those of you that can handle more ‘complicated’ and ‘extensive’ skincare routines, i’d highly suggest a few serum treatments (Vitamin C for example) to help protect and heal your skin throughout the day and night.

The more you actually do stay on your skincare routine, the better results you’ll see in your skin! Talk to your skincare therapist for recommendations on the best products and ingredients for your skin.
