If there’s one skincare treatment that can give you a perfect holiday glow with no downtime, it’s a Hydrafacial. Designed to leave your skin fresh, radiant, and party-ready, a Hydrafacial is the ultimate way to prepare your skin for the festivities ahead.

Discover the benefits of getting a Hydrafacial before the holiday season

A Hydrafacial is perfect for anyone looking to get their glow-on for the festive season and offers numerous benefits, including

#1 Instant radiant glow

One of the prime benefits of a Hydrafacial is a healthy glow and soft dewy skin. The exfoliation and extraction steps of the procedure remove dead skin cells, unclogs the pores, and improves texture, giving you skin that looks fresh and youthful. For Christmas and end-of-year parties, family gatherings, and photos, nothing beats the instant radiance that makes you look effortlessly stunning. 

#2 Deep cleansing to counter holiday stress and indulgences

The holiday season can play havoc with our skin. Cold weather, late nights, heavy makeup, and holiday stress can lead to clogged pores, breakouts, and a dull complexion. The Hydrafacial’s deep-cleaning extraction stage removes impurities from the skin, helping prevent breakouts and keeping the skin fresh and clear. It’s almost like a holiday detox for your skin. 

#3  Hydration that combats winter dryness 

Winter weather can be tough on our skin, leaving it looking flaky, rough and dull. The Hydrafacial incorporates a powerful hydration stage that infuses the skin with nourishing lotions rich in peptides, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid. These help lock in moisture and protect the skin’s barrier, keeping it smooth, plumped-up, and hydrated even during the harsh winter months. With glowing, hydrated skin, you’ll enjoy skincare for Christmas that lasts through the entire holiday period.

#4 Smooth makeup application for holiday parties

With smoother skin your make-up looks better. Following a Hydrafacial, your skin texture looks more even, making it easier to apply makeup that lasts. Foundation glides on with a smoother, hydrated skin, concealer blends in effortlessly, and the result is a more polished finish that’s perfect for photos, holiday parties or any special events. 

5. Customized to your unique skincare needs

No one Hydrafacial treatment is ever the same, since we tailor the treatment to meet each client’s needs. Whether you’re concerned about fine lines, hoping to fade areas of hyperpigmentation, boost hydration, or even out your skin texture, each step is customized to ensure your skin looks its absolute best. With add-ons like LED light therapy and speciality serums, we can target specific concerns, giving you a personalized treatment that fits perfectly into your Christmas skincare routine.

6. Last-minute treatment for special events

What our clients like best about the Hydrafacial is there’s no downtime to factor in. Suitable for all skin types, you can even get your Hydrafacial done the day before your event, giving you fresh, radiant skin just in time for those festive photos. 

What to expect during your Hydrafacial 

If it’s your first time getting a Hydrafacial, here’s a quick summary of the steps involved when you have your treatment. 

Cleansing and exfoliation: A deep cleanse and exfoliation to remove dead skin cells prepare your skin for the next steps in the treatment. 

Gentle acid peel: Unlike harsher peels which can irritate, this gentle peel utilizes salicylic and glycolic acids to remove impurities from the pores and is mild and comfortable. 

Extraction and hydration: The pores are painlessly unclogged using a special Vortex suction, similar to a hoover. This is followed by a deeply hydrating infusion of serums packed with nutrients and moisture.

Personalized Boosters and LED Therapy (Optional): Depending on your particular skin needs, we can add specialized serums to brighten or calm the skin or help reduce the signs of anti-aging. LED light therapy is another option add-on to reduce redness and stimulate collagen production. 

In less than an hour, your skin is left feeling rejuvenated, hydrated, and glowing. It’s the ultimate skincare for Christmas and a perfect pre-holiday treat!

Tips for keeping your glow through the holidays

A Hydrafacial gives you a great starting point, but maintaining that glow means practicing a little holiday self-care. Here are a few tips to help your results last:

Hydrate: Drinking water is essential, particularly during the festive period when it’s easy to get dehydrated from holiday cocktails and salty foods.

Moisturize daily: Using a quality moisturizer in the morning and at night will help retain your skin’s hydration levels. 

Apply sunscreen: Even in winter, UV rays can cause damage, so don’t skip your sunscreen!

Use a gentle cleanser: Avoid harsh cleansers that strip away natural oils and instead use a gentle cleanser to keep your skin balanced.
