Summer is the perfect time to refresh and rejuvenate your skin. At Spa Manzanita, we offer a range of spa services to help you achieve that summer glow. Here are some tips and insights on how to keep your skin smooth and radiant during the sunny season.
Why Exfoliate in Summer? ☀️
Exfoliation is the process of removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. This is especially important in summer when sweat, sunscreen, and environmental pollutants can clog pores and dull your complexion. Regular exfoliation helps to:
- Unclog pores: Prevent breakouts and keep your skin clear.
- Improve skin texture: Smooth out rough patches and reveal softer skin.
- Enhance product absorption: Allow your skincare products to penetrate deeper and work more effectively.
- Boost circulation: Promote healthy blood flow for a natural glow.
Exfoliation Tips for the Face
Here are some tips to maintain your facial skin at home:
- Choose the Right Exfoliant: Opt for gentle exfoliants like glycolic acid or lactic acid, which are effective yet kind to the skin. Avoid harsh scrubs that can cause micro-tears.
- Frequency: Exfoliate 1-2 times a week, depending on your skin type. Over-exfoliating can lead to irritation and sensitivity.
- Hydrate: Follow up with a hydrating serum or moisturizer to lock in moisture and soothe the skin.
- Sun Protection: Always apply sunscreen after exfoliating to protect your newly revealed skin from UV damage.
Exfoliation Tips for the Body
For body exfoliation, our OSEA Earth & Sea Body Scrub is a client favorite. This luxurious body scrub combines mineral-rich salts and wild Gigartina seaweed to buff away roughness and nourish the skin. Here’s how to make the most of your body exfoliation routine at home:
- Prep Your Skin: Use the scrub on damp skin in the shower. The moisture helps the scrub glide smoothly and prevents irritation.
- Gentle Circular Motions: Apply the scrub in gentle, circular motions, focusing on rough areas like elbows, knees, and heels.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse off with warm water and pat your skin dry with a soft towel.
- Moisturize: Follow up with a rich body lotion or oil to keep your skin hydrated and silky smooth.
