To ensure adequate hydration, the client with dry or dehydrated skin may require reapplication of the hydrating The antiaging facial Many facials and treatments are performed for this purpose, such as acid resurfacers and microdermabrasion. The acid resurfacers will be applied and the microdermabrasion treatment will be performed after step 4. Steps 5, 6, and 7 will not be performed. Step 8, a hydrating mask, is applied after acid removal (after the microdermabrasion). The The acne facial Enzymes work well in the deep cleansing step (4) for acne or acne-prone clients to clear surface debris and prepare their skin for extractions; however, acupressure should be the massage—not effleurage (light friction technique) or other movements—over the skin surface. The acne series will be glycolic acid, beta hydroxy acid, pumpkin peel, or microdermabrasion (if the client’s skin is only clogged). The acid resurfacers will be applied, and the microdermabrasion The wake-up-the-skin facial This facial brings color and vibrancy to dull skin, resulting in more even skin tones and enhancing the circulation that brings nourishment and moisture to the skin. It can be a Mineral makeup Salons that add makeup seek a skin-friendly makeup line. Skin care professionals love mineral makeup. The list of benefits of this type of makeup is long and is an effective selling tool. Mineral makeup can be used by everyone who wears makeup, no matter their age. Every type of skin can wear it, no matter the condition. Here is a list of the benefits of mineral makeup, according to manufacturers of the products. ● All natural . Nothing is more natural than something made from Mother Nature’s rocks. Skincare professionals are getting requests for all-natural products, and mineral makeup is everything they want. Mineral companies are staying away from perfumes, dyes, alcohol, oils, fillers, binders, preservatives and talc, the ingredients in traditional makeup that cause problems for skin. Along with this, it even looks natural. ● Antimicrobial . Iron oxides do not support the growth of microbes, so mineral makeup can be applied immediately after facials, microdermabrasion, and peels, and even soon after laser treatments. This allows the client to leave the salon looking wonderful and with no fear of makeup causing them problems. ● Noncomedogenic . Mineral makeup does not clog pores, as many liquid products do. This allows the client’s makeup to support their goals, not counter them. ● Non-allergic . A true mineral makeup—one without additives—will not cause allergic reactions. ● Great coverage . Surprisingly, mineral makeup covers everything clients want it to cover—undereye circles, port wine stains, bruising, erythema (redness), and hyperpigmentation. Minerals replace four products— foundation, powder, concealer, and sunscreen—while giving great coverage and always looking sheer and natural. ● Light as a feather . Most clients note immediately how much lighter on the face mineral makeup feels in comparison to liquid makeup.
mask if it is a gel. Application of paraffin over the hydration mask is also great for dry and dehydrated skin.
remaining steps are the same as the usual protocol. (Some skincare professionals perform acupressure over the mask for this client to enhance the relaxation it provides.) No routine massage is performed before an acid treatment or microdermabrasion.
treatment will be performed after step 4. Steps 5, 6, and 7 will not be performed. Do not extract after acids or microdermabrasion. Instead, do so in an extraction facial, a separate facial of this protocol that has a longer step 5 and an acne (not acid) or hydrating mask, according to the client’s needs. Acne treatment has a long learning curve; professionals interested in working with acne patients beyond the basic cleanup will need more training.
light microdermabrasion treatment or a vitamin C facial. See the antiaging facial protocol.
● Coverage control . Mineral makeup is applied in light layers, so the client can control the coverage to what they wish to have. And a little goes a long way for great coverage. ● Great SPF . The zinc oxide and titanium dioxide used in mineral makeup are natural barriers to UVB and UVA solar rays. A well-formulated mineral makeup will have a 15 to 22 sun protection factor (SPF) and provide quality sun protection for the skin. It is a physical barrier that provides immediate protection. Clients don’t have to wait 20 minutes until a chemical is absorbed into the skin. ● Anti-inflammatory . Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are anti-inflammatory ingredients that can help calm irritation. ● Water resistant . Mineral makeup is resistant to water and perspiration, allowing the appearance to last in spite of activities and the environment. An added bonus to water resistance is the durability of the SPF protection, wherever the client may be. ● No “caking .” When applied properly, mineral makeup does not build up in wrinkles and fine lines. The caking of traditional makeup draws attention to fine lines and wrinkles. ● Can be applied dry or wet . The loose powder can be added to a moisturizer or sunscreen and applied to the skin, a great method for those who prefer a wet application. ● Great lasting power . Apply in the morning and your makeup is good all day! Clients love the amazing endurance of this coverage. ● “ It’s good for your skin .” The natural capability of mineral makeup to ward off the sun and its antimicrobial qualities makes mineral makeup a treatment, not just a coverup. Many lines are also adding antioxidants, such as vitamins E, A, and others, to enhance the treatment value. The effectiveness is continually improving as technology improves.
