Facelogic Spa

Gone are the days when baking in the sun all day is ‘cool’. Most smart women (and men) today wouldn’t be caught dead within 20 feet of tanning oil, let alone laying out without at least an SPF of 15 smothered on every exposed inch of skin.

Over the years, we’ve all been educated about the dangers of the sun and skin cancer. So what can you do to protect yourself before you end up looking 15 years older than you are?? Here are some quick inside tips from Facelogic Spa on how to stay sun safe and still enjoy the summer:

Tip #1 – Apply sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or more every morning. Make it part of your routine prior to putting on your makeup. Then you will be protected whether you are in the sun or not.

Tip #2 – Cover up! Hats, umbrellas, whatever it you like! Take a queue from the likes of Nicole Kidman, Anne Hathaway and Amanda Seyfreid, and embrace your natural (albeit whiter) skin color. The 90s are over and unnatural shades of brown are not ‘in’.

Tip #3 – Reapply throughout the day. Everything in moderation might be a good motto for most things in life, but for sunscreen, the motto should be everything in excess! Pile that stuff on…and do it multiple times per day to stay protected.

Resist the urge this summer and protect your skin. Ask any beauty over 35 her anti-aging secret, and if she doesn’t include the liberal application of sunscreen in her answer…perhaps she has had a few rounds with the doctor.

Stay sun safe my friends!

Photofacials, light therapy and LED are relatively new spa buzz words that I’m sure you’ve heard about in all of your favorite glossy mags. Are you curious about what this is?? I know I was when I first heard about it!

For those of you curious spa and skincare lovers, here’s the skinny on this new cool skincare technology:

There are a million marketing names for phototherapy – LED, IPL, light therapy, photo facials – basically they all focus on utilizing the healing power of light. Phototherapy is based on the idea of isolating specific wavelengths of light within the light spectrum for a variety of treatments and applications.

Spas, dermatologists and health clinics might call the service different names, or use different equipment, but the overall results and effects of the treatment are essentially the same.

What’s even cooler about this newer technology is that companies are now producing LED products that you can use at home! Facelogic Spa just announced the launch of ANSR: in our spas in order to offer LED treatments in our spas and to give our customers an option for a great at-home device!

The ANSR: device helps to:

Red Light:

-Reduces fine lines and wrinkles

-Reduces pore size

-Reduces redness

-Improves skin texture and tone

Blue Light:

-Kills acne causing bacteria

Skincare and technology is advancing at a rapid pace and Facelogic Spa is focused on providing the latest and greatest services and treatments for both in-spa and at-home use. We encourage everyone to try a treatment and see how phototherapy can help you achieve your best skin ever!

Plump it up!

How many of you are envious of Angelina Jolie’s lips? The rest of her lifestyle isn’t half bad either, right?? But wouldn’t it be great if you could have natural looking full lips all the time like hers? Lip injections are a hot commodity these days and it seems that so many people are racing to get injected. Now, I’m all about having full lips, but I keep seeing these women with seriously bad lip injection work and it makes me think twice about the concept of injections. Instead of having naturally full looking lips, these women look like Donald Duck wannabes. I know that’s harsh, but it is just not natural!

However, there are many ways you can get plumper lips without the cost of injections. My favorite way to plump my lips for a night out is with the Facelogic Lip Plumper. It’s my handy little beauty secret that, without fail,  gives my lips a quick plump every time.

How does it work? This Lip Plumper contains peptides that stimulate fibroblasts in the skin to stimulate collagen which helps to plump the lips. It also contains avocado oil and jojoba oil which help to moisturize and lubricate the lips. So basically your getting plump AND moisturized lips all at the same time…you know how we love our two for one products!

My favorite part about the Lip Plumper is that when applied, your lips feel a slight cooling/tingling sensation that gives you a fresh, clean feeling. Our Lip Plumper is a clear gloss, so it still works the same when worn over your favorite red lipstick or gloss.

Next time you’re going out for a night on the town, or just heading out to lunch or dinner with friends, bring along your Facelogic Lip Plumper and try it for yourselves. Believe me, by the end of the evening, all of your girlfriends will be begging you to use it.

Glossed lips are on trend this season, so why not take it one step further and have glossed lips that are nice and plump. We’re all about looking beautiful and natural at Facelogic Spa, so before you think about injections, give the Lip Plumper a try and see how it might revolutionize your lip gloss-loving life. We are all addicted, and it’s a top seller, so we can all but bet that you will be too!

Plump it up ladies…

Think Pink

October marks Breast Cancer Awareness month and while many businesses help to raise money for breast cancer research, Facelogic has taken a slightly different approach. Facelogic Spas want to treat women who are currently battling the disease by offering FREE facials at our spas on select days nationwide. For the past 3 years, Facelogic Spas have opened their doors to women who are undergoing chemo and cancer treatments for some much needed pampering.

In addition to offering a day of free facials in our spas, many of our spas are also donating $10 per NEW membership to the American Cancer Society’s Look Good Feel Better program which helps to emotionally support women, men and teens that are currently battling various cancers.

Call the Facelogic Spa near you for details about their participation.

Let's not go overboard people!

We might reminisce from time to time about how fun it was to frolic in our carefree youth, but it’s pretty likely that you wouldn’t want to actually re-live those youthful days, right? Doing it all over again might sound fun, but also a lot of work and new life lessons to learn…yikes!

So what’s this obsession with looking 20 or 30 years younger then? We want everyone to look their best, but there is no need to go overboard!

Good thing for you all, there are plenty of ways to look great at any age without having to shell out big bucks going under the knife. The advancements in spa technologies in recent years have contributed to the increased effectiveness of facials as newer treatments and products have been formulated to deliver more targeted and long-lasting results for anti-aging skin concerns.

Some of the most effective anti-aging spa technologies include LED therapy, micro-current and microdermabrasion. In addition products and services incorporating acid peels, peptides and exfoliation are great methods of minimizing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and age spots in a more natural way. Spa facials even one-up the cosmetic medical treatments in that they typically incorporate an element of relaxation, massage and pampering – a much-needed necessity in this day and age. Ahhhhhh…

While cosmetic medical treatments are a great option delivering more long term results, with the economy in turmoil these days, there are many other appealing alternatives available for consumers at a fraction of the cost that deliver excellent anti-aging results. So before you start rationing your living expenses to save so that you can go under the knife, check out the alternative measures first. Maybe you’ll come to see that with the variety of products and services these days, there are plenty of cheaper, risk-free options to choose from.

Cheers to aging gracefully!

You may have found a moisturizer that works just fine in spring and summer.  But the weather is starting to change and, so too, should your skin care routine. Check out the top 3 moisturizers that we recommend this season!

1. Skin Perfecting Therapy by Facelogic Signature

- Why? This hydrating moisturizer works both as a day and night cream. The powerful Matryxl complex combines peptides that stimulate collagen, fibronectin and hyaluronic acid in skin while reducing stretch marks and improving skin tone, elasticity and firmness.

2. Mega Rich Intensive Anti-Aging Cellular Crème by Peter Thomas Roth

– Why? Formulated to deliver intense hydration to the skin, the patent pending Firma-CELL-4™ technology in this moisturizer combines wrinkle relaxing peptides to promote firmer, tighter skin.

3. Stone Crop Whip Moisturizer by Eminence Organics

– Why? Stone Crop, the ultra hydrator, is combined in a fortifying, lightening formula to deliver intense moisture to skin while calming and protecting it from the inside out.

Skincare products should change throughout the seasons, just like your wardrobe. Depending on where you live, your products might change more than others. If you’re in the market for a new moisturizer – we highly recommend giving these a run! Test them out at your local Facelogic Spa and let us know what you think.
