While nothing compares to a spa day full of relaxation and total body renewal, but many of us lack the time to include it into our daily schedules. Top aestheticians were invited to share their best-kept tips for attaining spa-quality results at home.

Spruce up

You may maintain spa sessions with an at-home facial, but not after a hot, steamy shower since your pores are open and your skin is too delicate and prone to irritation. This is according to Lola Yaremenko, an aesthetician at bliss57. In order to avoid stripping your skin, she advises doing it at night after cleansing with a light cleanser. You will be more successful at eliminating dead skin cells, clearing clogged pores, and encouraging cell turnover, which boosts brightness, if you gently wash before using a peel. The greatest time is at night because that’s when your skin regenerates the most.

beginning to dry brush
As the creator of Joanna Vargas Salon and Skincare Collection and a famous facialist, Joanna Vargas claims that dry brushing is her prefered form of body exfoliation because it is a multipurpose procedure. It genuinely works wonders to reduce cellulite and improve suppleness, she claims. “Begin at your toes and brush up towards your heart. Give areas that are more prone to stagnation, like as your inner thighs, more attention. Also, don’t forget to work your back and the backs of your arms. After dry brushing, you’ll feel warmer because it immediately boosts circulation. You will notice a difference in the quality of your skin and the appearance of cellulite within a few days if you try it before you take a shower in the morning.

Create a Custom Mask

You may attain the same radiant skin you love seeing after a facial treatment at the spa by making your own skin-care mixtures at home. I adore DIY masks, declares Vargas. The simplest recipes are the ones I like to make. The recipe for one of her favourites is given below:

  • yoghurt, 1/4 cup (for exfoliation and soothing)
  • 3 tablespoons heated honey (for hydration)
  • 2 tablespoons of wheatgrass or oat grass juice (for detoxifying, stimulating lymphatic drainage and feeding your skin important nutrients)

Skin Exfoliate Done Correctly

According to Margarita Kouzmina, an aesthetician at bliss57, “exfoliating at home can be challenging since people don’t always use the necessary amount of pressure.” “Applying too much or too little can both irritate the skin and result in subpar performance. Remember that once your skin has adjusted, you may always move up to a greater physical pressure.

Examine lymphatic massage.

Lymphatic drainage massage is another fantastic at-home remedy for keeping your skin clear, de-puffed, and shining. According to Vargas, it’s a lost technique that anyone may utilise to give their face a youthful appearance. “Massage your skin in upward-moving circles if you have dry skin. Massage in soft circles up towards your jaw, along the sides of your face, and then around your eyes, beginning at the base of your neck on the sides where your arteries are. This will facilitate the entry of nutrients into those tissues. Starting at the top of your face, near your eyes, and working in the opposite direction will pull the oil away if you are prone to breakouts.
