I would like to share with you some information pertaining to the benefits of a regular skin care regime. 

The most important steps to beautiful skin are:

#1.  Cleanse
Cleansing is perhaps the easiest, least expensive and most important element of maintaining healthy skin. It is the building block of a healthy skincare regime. Cleansing removes excess oil and impurities from your skin and helps improve its health and radiance. Cleansing also helps prepare your skin for the other steps in your skincare program. We suggest Ziva Natural's Gentle Gel Cleanser as an excellent choice to gently remove impurites. Many all purpose soaps will end up being too harsh for your face, leaving the skin dry and/or irritated.

#2. Exfoliate

As we age, the process of cell regeneration slows down. This means that the body is slower to shed skin cells and generate new ones. When old skin cells start to pile up on the surface of the skin, it can leave skin looking dull, rough, and dry. Furthermore, the build-up of dead skin cells can result in excess oil and clogged pores, leading to blemishes and acne.

Proper exfoliation removes the barrier of dead skin cells clogging the skin and uncovers fresh new cells below. This opens the way for moisturizing products to penetrate more deeply into the skin, which makes them more effective. In short, a regular exfoliating routine will leave your skin looking fresh and healthy. We recommend Ziva Naturals Anti-oxidant Facial exfoliant.   

 

#3.  Tone

A good toner will remove any remaining bits of oil, dirt and debris left behind by the cleanser.  More importantly, toning will help soothe, nourish and hydrate the skin while restoring its delicate pH balance.   Hydrosols such as rose, orange blossom, geranium or lavender make excellent toners because they are totally natural and bring great skin-conditioning benefits. We also recommend our Ziva Naturals Balancing Facial Toner which has wonderful ingredients including aloe vera, green tea extract, which hazel and essential oils. 

 

#4 Moisturize

 

 Don't skip the moisturizer! Your skin needs to be replenished each morning after cleansing and each night after a day of exposure to the environment.  During this stage don't forget your lips since the skin over the lips is thinner than anywhere else on the face. We recommend oils vs. cream based moisturizers as these tend to absorb into the skin better.  We have a few facial serums to choose from : Our popular Anti-aging and Regenerating facial serum, with ingredients such as hazlenut, jojoba, avocado, macadamia nut, meadowfoam, rosehip seed, cranberry, argan oils, lovely essential oils and Co-enzyme Q-10 which is a powerful anti-oxidant.  Or choose our hydrating oil, which has almond, apricot kernal, meadowfoam, avocado and essential oils.   

 

#5 Mask Applications

 

For extra skin-love treat your face once a week to a mask!   

Good cosmetic clays condition and nourish your skin by removing the dead cells and extracting the extra oils and impurities from the surface of the skin. Masks can be used to moisturize, detoxify, increase circulation and replenish nutrients. But above all, they add an extra dimension to the skin-care routine, and they are truly pampering. We have a lot of different types of clay to suit your skin type, whether you treat yourself to facial here at the spa or would prefer to pamper yourself at home.  Please inquire about what clay would be right for you!  

 

We recommend cleansing, toning and moisturizing 2x a day, exfoliating 2x a week and treating yourself to a mask 1x a week.  Incorporating a facial ritual into your life is a wonderful way to appreciate your body, and keep your skin healthy and glowing for many years to come!  All our products are made with beautiful natural oils and botanicals, as organic as possible, are preserved with leucial liquid, which is derived from radishes, are made in small batches and are stored in amber glass bottles.  They are reasonably priced and all smell really really nice :)
