Self-isolating has meant sacrificing many simple pleasures. Eating out with friends or celebrations with extended family, all feel like a distant memory. But perhaps impacting us most in the short-term, is no longer having access to professionally-administered touch-ups, like monthly facials. The upside is, of course, with the extra time at home some of us are experiencing during self-isolation, you can take skin care into your own hands.
While your bathroom might not hold a candle to a spa experience, don’t let a lack of fancy tools or professional-level products prevent you from embracing your inner esthetician - giving yourself a decent facial treatment from the comfort of your home is completely doable. Boost your skin care regime with an at-home facial that’s as easy as following a few steps.
What Is A Facial?
Whether you’re a facial fanatic or complete newbie, it’s important to understand what exactly a facial contributes to your beauty routine. An all-inclusive approach to skin care, a facial is a treatment or series of treatments that can target multiple skin ailments. By now, we’re all aware that the skin on our face is a map for our body’s needs, and a facial serves as an infographic to point out any deficiencies or general conditions that need specific care.
Some Facials are Best Left to Experts
Now, not all of these facial treatments are safe - or even possible - to achieve on your own. Due to the precision and experience required, extractions should be avoided at all costs. Chemical peels are also not wise to attempt on your own as they can cause pigment irregularities and even scar your skin permanently when they are misused. Even without these more advanced treatments, you can give yourself an hour of skin pampering that will reset your skin. Although nothing will replace the expertise and experience of a professional treatment, an at-home facial can maintain the health of your skin until your next opportunity to visit your esthetician.
