The Benefits of Having a Facial

267 days ago By Omorovicza

There are many benefits to having a facial and while we might not have the time in our busy schedules to visit a facialist regularly, and while it is often instead considered an occasional luxury, our skin can really reap the rewards when it’s had a professional treatment. 

What Are The Benefits Of Having A Facial?  

Rejuvenated Skin 

While an at-home skincare routine is crucial to maintaining healthy skin (regular cleansing, toning, and moisturising helps to keep your complexion balanced and hydrated), having a regular facial is key to properly caring for and treating your skin.  

Think of your trip to the facialist like a visit to the dentist; it’s a 50-50 balance. Half of the results are based on professional care, while the other half is about maintaining the results of the treatment at home. The two go hand in hand, and being consistent with your facials is essential. 

Treating Specific Skin Concerns 

One of the key benefits of having a facial is that a trained professional will perform a skin analysis. When specific skin concerns (dehydration, wrinkles, loss of firmness and elasticity, sun damage, acne, inflammation or redness) have been identified, your therapist can minimise and treat those concerns with a facial treatment that is tailored to you. 

Improving Your Skincare Routine 

A facialist will also advise on how to effectively treat your specific skin conditions and correct any concerns. They will ask questions about your daily skincare routine and make recommendations about which products will work best for your complexion, so that you can adapt your at-home skincare routine accordingly.  

Offering A Deep Cleanse 

Getting a professional deep cleanse can clear your pores much more efficiently than an at-home treatment would. A facialist will use a safe and gentle steam to open your pores and allow them to breathe, as well as spa-specific techniques to extract any impurities.  

Expert Tip: By getting a facial and professionally cleansing your skin, you increase the efficiency of your at-home products, as they will be able to better penetrate the skin. 

Treating Yourself  

Taking the time to pamper yourself in a relaxing environment will allow you to reset and recharge. So, once a month, enjoy an indulgent treatment. 

How Often Should I Get A Facial? 

As skin cell turnover happens every 28 to 40 days, a facial should be a monthly or bi-monthly routine to ensure you maintain your complexion’s healthy glow.

How To Maintain Your Glow After A Facial 

Cleanse Morning And Night 

Failing to remove makeup and debris can cause your complexion to look dull and lacklustre. Maintain your post-facial glow by using the iconic Cleansing Foam morning and night. Its sulfate-free formula purifies and refreshes skin, without stripping away moisture.

Tone After Cleansing 

As cleansing can affect the natural acidity of your skin, it’s essential to rebalance and soothe it immediately afterwards. The revitalising Omoressence toner balances and hydrates, protecting skin from external aggressors, leaving it feeling soft, supple and soothed.

Moisturise Twice Daily 

Using a moisturiser twice a day will keep skin hydrated and help to maintain a younger-looking, dewy complexion. We recommend looking for radiance-enhancing ingredients like Vitamin C, which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, and reduces the signs of sun damage and pigmentation, leaving skin looking fresh and more evenly toned.

The Gold Rescue Cream contains ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), which helps to improve elasticity and increase skin’s vitality. Apply it evenly onto your face and neck for a radiant, dewy finish.

Exfoliate Once A Week 

To make your post-facial glow last, we recommend using the Gold Sugar Scrub once a week. Formulated with fair-trade sugar cane, it scrubs away dead cells and reveals the radiant skin beneath. It also contains colloidal gold, a powerful anti-inflammatory that heals micro-damage and nourishes the skin. Massage into skin using circular motions, then rinse thoroughly using a cloth mitt and warm water.
