The only full-service Clarins spa in the country is 24 miles from my house how lucky am I?! I went there back in May and received the best mini-facial of my life. The whole experience was terrific.

My Esthetician did more than treat my face; she shared tips on how to apply each product so that my skin better absorbs all the ingredients. Since then I noticed such an improvement in my skin tone and just how much more relaxing my night-time Routine has become.

Here are her three tips, I find the first two so easy to incorporate into a day or night time routine. I like to do it in the nigh-time because this is when I have the extra time to relax and enjoy each step.

 

Tip #1 Start With a Massage

Always start your skincare routine with a light massage this will stimulate the face muscle. With regular massage, you will help bring oxygen to that area—which is a natural form of anti-aging skin care in itself. More blood flow to the area increases collagen production, which gives a healthy and natural glow to the complexion.

The facial massage can be done using your hands; I like to start this in the shower where I use the cleanser and water for more slip. I focus on the neck which is where must of my tension is, also I like to use facial massagers like these here or here.

Tip #2 Warm it up

She recommends to always use lukewarm water to wash your face and to warm the serums in hands before applying to face, it will help the products absorb more by raising the temperature in your skin.

Tip #3 Facial Before Injectables

Book your facial a day before your Botox/fillers appointments. She explained that going in shortly after a relaxing facial for injectables your results will be better and more effective because the muscles in your face will be relaxed. I have yet to prove this one to be true but it’s worth trying out.

The Holy Grail Product

After my treatment I received a goodie bag, in it was the Clarins Double Serum and you guys, I am in love! I seriously cannot believe I went this long without it. My skin responded so well with it and I immediately began to notice it looks healthier and more youthful.

My experience at the Clarins spa inside the Bloomingdales mall in Chestnut Hill, MA was what every spa experience should be like. After my service, I left with a glowing healthy complexion, relaxed and with more knowledge about taking care of my skin than I came in. I recommend the Clarins spa and its services to everyone!
