Good afternoon Yes, these procedures are combined and complement each other well. Skin R gives a lifting effect, skin B actively moisturizes the skin.

Good afternoon, Irina! It is impossible to answer your question in general terms, because the approach to skin care for any person should be purely individual: someone at your age actively uses injection techniques and laser rejuvenation, others get by with good professional care, peelings and facial massages. Therefore, without seeing the condition of your skin, it is wrong to give any advice. The cost of care also cannot be determined without understanding what exactly you need. You can...

The consultation takes 10-15 minutes. And if you decide, then you can immediately carry out the procedure, which a specialist will decide on the spot according to the indications.

Ask a question

The answer lies on the surface: SPA treatments at home. We will share with you our favorite invigorating and warming procedures, which are based on the main components of salon SPA care: scrubs, oils, herbs and stones. There is nothing complicated in the procedures themselves, and the ingredients for them cost mere pennies!

Scrubs

A homemade scrub is based on any vegetable oil, such as olive or flaxseed, and substances that have an exfoliating effect: salt, sugar, coffee, ground oatmeal or nuts.

Foot peeling - salt scrub

The salt scrub contains minerals and trace elements that will improve the functioning of the lymphatic system and will be an excellent prevention of edema. To prepare it, mix half a glass sea salt with two tablespoons olive oil.

Hand peeling – sugar scrub

If the skin on your hands is constantly drying out and regular cream doesn’t help, try a sugar scrub. The recipe is simple: mix sugar with grape seed oil and massage your hands thoroughly.

Body peeling – coffee scrub

Do you want your body skin to become velvety? Brew half a glass of ground coffee beans with boiling water to make a thick paste, then mix with 2-3 tablespoons of rich sour cream and rub into the skin.

Facial peeling – oatmeal and nut scrub

This peeling will give you a head start on salon procedures! Mix flakes and nuts in equal parts and grind in a blender. If you want to combine the cleansing procedure with nutrition, after peeling, leave the product on the skin for 10-15 minutes.

Oils

Vegetable oils used for massage and for making masks. Which oil to choose (olive, almond, avocado or shea), decide for yourself.

Oil mask for feet

Forget about all the “magic” socks that actually “rip off” several layers of skin from your poor feet! It’s better to mix half an avocado, 1 egg yolk, the juice of half a lemon and 4 tablespoons of flaxseed oil in a blender. Apply the mask to your feet (preferably after a foot bath and peeling), put on cotton socks. After 30 minutes, rinse with warm water.

Oil bath for hands

Heat the oil to a temperature of 39-40 C and put your hands in it for 10-15 minutes. After excess oil, blot with a paper towel (do not wipe!).

Herbs

You can easily find dried herbs at the pharmacy. They cost pennies, but the possibilities for their use are extremely diverse.

Herbal sachets

Cut out small squares of 10 by 10 cm from undyed cotton (for example, from an old sheet or pillowcase), place 2-3 tablespoons of the dried herbal mixture on them. Linden flowers, St. John's wort, chamomile, and mint leaves are suitable for this. Tie the edges of the fabric like a bag. You can use these sachets to prepare herbal infusions for baths, face and hair care. And heated in the oven to a temperature of 37-38 degrees, they are suitable for massaging the face and neck according to massage lines.

Stones

In SPA salons, stones are used in “stone therapy”. We offer you simplified versions of this fashionable and expensive procedure. Surely sometime “in a past life” you collected beautiful pebbles on the seashore. Congratulations, today you will finally need them!

Foot massage

Prepare a foot bath, at the bottom of which add pebbles with smooth, even edges of different sizes. Use your feet to stomp on the stones for 2-3 minutes. The stones affect the acupuncture points of the feet, which will quickly tone you up.

Stone facial massage

This procedure is simply divine! And most importantly, after using it your facial skin feels as if you just returned from the seaside yesterday! To perform a stone massage you will need two round stones. put one in hot water(temperature 50−60 C), the other in the refrigerator. Massage your face and neck along the massage lines, first with a warm stone, then with a cold one.

Popular

Many girls think that in order to look beautiful and well-groomed, they need to stay in expensive spas. All spa treatments can be performed at home with the same excellent effect. The result will be lasting and visible, just like after professional procedures. Constantly exposed to negative influences, the skin of the face becomes dry and flabby, losing its elasticity and youth. This can be corrected by regularly performing simple procedures at home.

What is the highlight of spa treatments?

Spa facial treatments are a cosmetological complex that includes actions aimed at protecting facial skin from external harmful factors and bad habits. Everyone knows that smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, poor nutrition immediately affect the condition of the skin. Spa treatments will help restore elasticity and freshness to your face. Their big advantage is their versatility, since they have virtually no contraindications. Only if you have a problem with acne or other inflammatory processes, you should stop using the spa.

Facial beauty treatments

Spa treatments always include 3 main stages: deep cleansing of the skin, peeling and moisturizing. Facial cleansing can be different: vacuum, ultrasonic, gas-liquid and mechanical. An experienced cosmetologist will select the ideal option for each client. The most popular is the combined method, which includes both mechanical and less traumatic methods. All this is explained by the fact that the skin on the face very often has more than one type. In most cases, there are different zones on the face that are characteristic of oily or, conversely, dry skin. Deep facial cleansing is done to make the skin more receptive to spa treatments.

In order to steam and cleanse your facial skin as much as possible, it is absolutely not necessary to go to specialized salons. You can do this without leaving your home. Steam baths for the face are considered the best cleanser. They deeply cleanse the skin, accelerate blood circulation, and stimulate better metabolism. Under the influence of hot steam, the pores expand and the skin softens. Sweating increases, due to which unnecessary metabolic products are removed from the body.

Baths should be done once a week depending on your skin type. Up to 30 years of age, skin is considered normal, oily, etc. After 35 years, in the absence of obvious signs of a particular skin type (excessive oiliness or dryness), care should be directed to aging skin. Before taking steam baths, you need to remove all makeup. The face must be perfectly clean. After this procedure, you can apply a cream or mask to your face.

You should avoid baths if you have problematic skin, acne, pimples. If you have bronchial asthma, this procedure may worsen the situation. Also, if you have unstable blood pressure, it is better to use another method of deep cleansing your face. Steam baths are especially useful in the summer, when there is such a large amount of dust in the air that the sebaceous and sweat glands work more intensely. This procedure will relieve tension and remove any dirt from the face.

In order to do this procedure at home, you need to prepare the following things: 2 towels, a basin, essential oils, herbal decoctions, masks and creams for further care. It is best to take baths in loose clothing, with your hair pinned up, or best hidden in a special cap. Any jewelry from the neck and head should be removed, pour hot water or herbal decoction into a container, tilt your head and cover yourself with a terry towel. You should not lean too close to the container, as you can burn the mucous membrane of your eyes. After the procedure, pat your face dry with a linen towel, but do not rub it. After the steam bath, it is good to lie on your back for 15 minutes. Then you can start peeling, masks and other procedures.

To achieve the best results, it is recommended to use steam baths depending on your facial skin type. All of them are based on herbal infusions. The only difference is in the ingredients themselves. We bring to your attention several options for herbal decoctions for dry skin:

The following masks are exclusively applied in beauty salons and spas.

Modeling face mask

This type of mask is used to nourish the skin, tighten the face, achieve matte color. The consistency of the mask resembles powder. It is applied to the face for 20 minutes and washed off with cotton pads. 3 times a week is the ideal frequency of using a modeling mask.

Collagen face masks

They are used to speed up metabolism, smooth out wrinkles and rejuvenate. Collagen makes the skin firmer and more elastic. You can make such masks only after 20 years. Since natural collagen is used, the cost of such masks is quite high. Do not overuse this mask. Once a month is enough.

After the first well-executed spa treatments, you will see results. The face will regain lost freshness and elasticity. After several procedures, the skin will smooth out well, will be velvety and beautiful.
