It’s time to get your skin ready for the holidays (yes – already!) and that means beginning a series of 3 or more peels to ramp up your skin to get the holiday glow we all strive for. This month we are featuring our 3 most popular peels: The Smooth and Refine, The Replenix Perfect 10, and the Vitalize Peel and the all new Retinol Peel Accelerator to add to any peel. Read on for all the details.
THE SMOOTH AND REFINE PEEL
This peel brightens and smooths skin giving it a radiant glow. This peel can be used on all parts of the body to exfoliate and reveal new skin, reducing the appearance of acne scars, enlarged pores, and the depth of lines and wrinkles.
Time: 45 Minute Procedure
Price: $165 ($190 with Master Esthetician)
Members receive a discount of 25% on a Series of 3 (Non-Members receive a discount of 15%)
How does the procedure work?
The Smooth and Refine Peel is customized for each client to physically exfoliate and address specific skin concerns while renewing cellular functions that are dormant. Approximately 2 days after the application of the peel, the skin will go through a mild flaking process which will reveal velvety smooth skin. This advanced peel can be added on to any monthly membership treatment or done as a single treatment to achieve a quick and effective result.
Who benefits from this procedure?
Clients who are suffering from pigment changes and uneven skin tone and texture. This peel will cause mild physical flaking. We recommend that clients postpone social engagements until 2 weeks after the peel so that residual flaking is complete.
What to avoid
Three days prior to treatment we advise avoiding the use of retinols. Following treatment we recommend that clients do not apply any makeup or creams to skin for at least 4-6 hours after the procedure to prevent any possible contamination. Also, no exercising for 24 hours. As with all our procedures, we strongly recommend using the daily use of screen with an SPF of 30-50 depending on your skin tone. Any sunburn or an increase in sun exposure can cause advances in the aging process.
THE REPLENIX® MD PERFECT 10 PEEL
This peel contains a blend of ingredients that visibly reduce the signs of aging with every peel session. This peel addresses hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores, fine lines, wrinkles, and weak capillaries. It works inside and out to encourage cell stimulation, support collagen production and strengthen the skin’s protective barrier.
Time: 45 Minute Procedure
Price: $225 ($250 with Master Esthetician)
Members receive a discount of 25% on a Series of 3 (Non-Members receive a discount of 15%)
How does the procedure work?
Each component of the system is formulated with soothing and calming antioxidants to support the pure and effective peeling agents. The peel works inside
and out to encourage cell stimulation, support colla- gen production and strengthen the skin’s protective barrier. Most clients find this peel to be painless. Two days after the treatment, skin will peel for 3-7 days so a busy schedule or upcoming special events should be taken into account when scheduling. These peels can be done every 3 weeks for optimal results in a series of 3 or 6. Different peel strengths are available.
Who benefits from this procedure?
Clients who are trying to reduce the visible signs of aging and increase collagen production. Peels are ideal for clients who want fast results. Remember these peels should be done no closer than 30 days prior to a special event.

Also, no exercising for 24 hours. As with all our procedures, we strongly recommend daily use of screen with an SPF of 30-50 depending on your skin tone.
THE VITALIZE® PEEL
This peel is different from most traditional ‘deep’ peels, and requires little recovery time and improves skin’s overall appearance by decreasing fine line wrinkles, evening skin tone, tightening pores, and improving skin texture. This peel is perfect for all skin tones and ethnicities, and considered safe and extremely effective. Noticeable improvement can be seen after a single treatment, but when used in a series, clients see dramatic results.
30 MIN $185 ($250 with Master Esthetician)
Members receive a discount of 25% on a Series of 3 (Non-Members receive a discount of 15%)
How does the procedure work?
Vitalize Peel® is applied in layers that causes your skin to peel approximately two days after treatment. You will see noticeable results after just one peel with compelling results after 3 to 6 weeks. This peel is an effective tool against pigment changes caused by acne scarring, sun damage, age spots, freckles, melasma from hormonal changes, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Results are noticeable after just one peel with compelling results after 3 to 6 weeks.
Who benefits from this procedure?
Clients not yet ready for a Face lift or other invasive procedure, but are looking to improve the appearance and feel of their skin, will love the Vitalize Peel.

It’s hard to be a teenager, let alone when you have acne or crazy, bushy eyebrows. One of our teen clients shared her day of beauty with us. Even though the school year will look much different this year, our teenager is ready for anything.
Dehydrated skin is a skin condition, meaning it is temporary and more easily treatable than dry skin. Often caused by external elements, such as weather or harsh soaps or detergents. Dehydrated skin is simply moisture-deficient skin with low, depleted water content. This skin condition has a loss of bodily fluids which can be a significant issue as our body depends on water for all cellular processes.

Dry Skin
Dry skin is typically a pre-determined skin function decided by your genes. Dry skin is caused by a lack of sebum and lipids, due to under active or smaller sebaceous glands. Less protective oil in the skin cells leave a tight, scaly and sensitive sensation for those with dry skin. It can also occur with mature clients with an under active thyroid, a hormonal imbalance, or dehydrated skin left untreated. All of these conditions inhibit the production of the natural essential oils that protect the skin.
Since water isn’t the problem in dry skin and instead lack of oil is the core issue, it can appear lackluster with no sheen or glow.

…with a bit of self nurture and care to feel ready to take on whatever comes your way.
Shower everyday! It is important to maintain or even establish a structure in your day to day life. A shower refreshes your body and your senses and tells you body it is time to get in motion for the day!
Wash your face twice a day even if you are not wearing makeup. With the cortisol coursing through all of our veins with the fear and uncertainty. Our skin will tend to be oilier, buildup dead skin more quickly, and can harbor stress acne bacteria so it is important that you washing your face is a non-negotiable!
Let your skin breathe makeup free. This is the time to see if makeup is clogging your skin! Many of us do not have to wear makeup with switching to zoom conference calls, face times, etc. In fact, video chats with great skin is a healthy skin status symbol and gives colleagues more confidence in your self care and well being. This may be a time to review your makeup and do some spring cleaning. Quality makeup should have skin enhancing benefits so your skin can be its best with or without it!
Be diligent about your skincare routine, and add in a weekly exfoliation treatment. In order to maintain your skin while you are unable to go to your monthly spa treatments, it is important to challenge your skin and keep it active and regenerating so your skin does not start to go backwards. We are still biologically aging and we want to keep our skin headed in the right direction!
Integrate yoga (stretching/keeping your joints healthy) 20-30 min., meditation/deep breathing exercises 5 min(keeping your diaphragm healthy and your nerves calm, and go for a walk outside (keep a healthy dose of Vitamin D in your body through sunlight exposure). All of these physical musts keeps your immune system healthy and circulation moving through your body which allows your lymph system to function at its best!
Self care takes effort and a bit of creating a routine. Take one day at a time. Check mark your achievements and with some perseverance, regular habits, and a positive outlook, you will be able to see the good that can come out of a self quarantine!

Most of us wear multiple masks to appear like we have it all together. Social media is a perfect example of this. Most of us only show the version of ourselves that we want to portray, not necessarily our true selves. I became overly driven doing this over the last decade and realized this game is exhausting. I learned that the outcome of a goal achieved is temporarily satisfying but that true fulfillment comes from enjoying each and every single day of my journey. Society can easily make you feel unworthy so now I practice new beliefs and behaviors that honor my new true value. Nature is what has helped me in this journey.
The awe and expansiveness of nature, and inherent beauty reminds me to breathe and be still in the moment. Have you ever looked at something in nature and thought something negative? Nature understands that growth is a process, in fact it is natural law. Imagine when a tree is planted. First, it needs to start growing roots, then extending its branches followed by leaves or flowers blossoming. Overtime, it builds character, and becomes deeply rooted in its values. It has no commitment to perfection but instead commitment to evolution. Nature was a mirror for me to see my true nature. Nature can help us all see the beauty in imperfection and finally see the light that gradually starts to glow when you love yourself.
