The Justified Hype for the Fire and Ice Facial
Let’s face it, there are a few breathtaking moments where we’ve seen our skin and thought, “wait! That’s me?!”, though it is typically after a beachy vacation or intensive, invasive facial. The results don’t last long, and sun exposure is a counterproductive way to catch some radiance for only a few days. This is where the Fire and Ice Facial comes in to sweep you off your feet.
Why do you need to incorporate the Fire and Ice Facial into your skincare routine?
There’s a clear change in your skin when you devote more consistency to your routine. You might start to notice that your pore sizes are fluctuating less, the tightness you feel from being dry has subsided or maybe your oily T-zone is becoming a more balanced and predictable place. No matter what you’re starting to notice, a Fire and Ice Facial can be your cherry on top.
The absolutely legendary “Red Carpet Special”
The Fire and Ice Facial have become so popular among celebrities that it’s commonly referred to as the “red carpet special”. The unmatched glow, the fresh-out-of-the-spa radiance- there’s simply nothing like it. And receiving such incredible, impactful results from a short trip to your favorite skin care studio? It just doesn’t get any better than this.
A dedication to exfoliating and hydrating your face
Your skin requires hydration and varying levels of exfoliation in order to function optimally. These two processes go hand-in-hand– exfoliation is what helps your skin do a better job at staying deeply hydrated and locking in moisture. The Fire and Ice Facial boosts cell regeneration, aiding in the reduction of fine lines, blemishes, and every little thing in between.
A chance to experience what legends like Kate Bosworth and Bella Hadid swear by
Everywhere you turn you’ll find a tutorial on how to capture the glowing essence of skincare icons like Bella Hadid. You can’t escape the celebrity skin care routine, and part of that comes from the natural hope to create a better-looking and feeling environment on our skin. This facial is all-encompassing, taking the best from all worlds of skincare, and combines them into the ultimate facial treatment.
How does the Fire and Ice Facial work?
Having the best skin treatments on the market sounds great in theory, but sometimes finding out how they actually work can be a major letdown. Sometimes you find out that they’re either too invasive or require several weeks of recovery time; two factors you may not want to deal with. That’s part of what makes this facial so versatile.
Begins with a relaxing, steamed double cleanse
Once you hop on the chair, you can kick back, relax and let your esthetician pamper you with the finest products in the skincare realm. Your Fire and Ice Facial starts out with a deep, steaming double-cleansing– creating a perfectly clean and calm canvas to prime your skin for the fire and ice.
A revitalizing facial that consists of two masks
Your esthetician will then move into the second stage of the facial, which involves a resurfacing mask that works intensively over a period of about five minutes. This mask contains vital proteins and components like retinol, and niacinamide, sources of glycolic and citric acid and antioxidants.
Deep hydration and facial massage
Next, your esthetician will deeply hydrate your skin with a masque that was built to soothe and cool. This is the “ice” part that leaves the skin, nourished, glowing, and comfortable. Packed with rich ingredients, like Japanese green tea, grapeseed, hyaluronic acid, licorice and rosemary, and aloe vera extracts, the fire and ice combination repairs your skin barrier, an important part of your skin that is often damaged due to poor quality skincare products.
What should I know before and after my appointment?
The key to any successful facial treatment is working with a skincare studio that values you and your needs. Your esthetician will set you up with everything you need to know about the fire and ice facial before, during and after your appointment.
Follow your regular skin care regimen leading up to your appointment
Getting ready for a Fire and Ice Facial is super easy. In fact, all you have to do is make sure you follow your normal skincare routine leading up to your appointment. That’s it. No fancy bells or whistles. You can let your esthetician know if you’re taking any specific medications that may interfere with your treatment when you schedule your appointment.
Schedule waxing or lasering treatments after your facial
If you know you have laser or waxing treatments scheduled prior to your Fire and Ice Facial, make sure you reschedule them for after your session. And any products that might contain glycolic acid or vitamin A need to be stopped about three days prior to your appointment.
Zero downtime or recovery with a quick return to life’s little pleasures
One of the best benefits of the Fire and Ice Facial is that there’s no recovery time. You heard that right! You can get right back to playing tennis, hitting the sauna, and any of your other favorite activities immediately after your appointment.
