5 Tips from Your Holistic Esthetician
By Haley Hill
1. Double cleanse always!
Starting off your routine with an oil based cleanser to remove makeup, dirt, or any natural skin oils that can be living on the skin. Your second cleanse should be a water based product to encourage a deeper cleanse.
2. Invest in your skin care products.
Consider your products as skin food and not as skin care. It’s crucial to use an all natural and earth friendly line to protect the integrity of your skin. The more you put into your routine the more your skin will love you. However, that doesn't mean the more products used the better. Using only three or four nutrient rich products can do more for the result you desire than using eight products that will overwhelm your skin.

3. Layering your products properly.
When it comes to the skin, you want to layer the products in a routine that best suits your skin's needs. Oil Based Cleanser, Water Based Cleanser, Toner, Serum, Moisturizer, and lastly a Finishing Oil. For a more detailed breakdown check out some tips from Dr. Salar Parvini.
4. Incorporate tools into your routine to help with sculpting or drainage.
Gua sha stones are a great tool used to relieve tension, sculpt skin, and increase circulation. You can achieve multiple results with just one tool which makes the treatment very user friendly for at home maintenance in between treatments with your esthetician.
5. Explore other outlets to enhance your healing journey.
