Re: how often for facials?

I never go.
And to be honest the few times i did I felt like my face either looked worse or it did absolute jack shit for me.
I just use a chemical exfoliant daily or every other day, a physical exfoliant once a week, and am religious with the moisturizer.

I think you have to find the right place. i do like how my skin looks after, but even the same practitioner is not always consistent.

i'm very lazy with using stuff on my faceChat Icon

I don't have the money to go as often as I would like, because in an ideal world I'd go monthly, lol! But the last facialist I went to said once every season was enough for most people, so four times a year.

This.

And if you make a skin care routine, you can help keep it looking bright & fresh in between. Doesn’t have to be expensive stuff. Find a cleanser that is gentle on your skin ( I like philosophy brand) a basic toner and day & night cream. I use at home masks every couple of weeks to tighten as well.

I've heard you should get facials every month to see improvement. But, if you have something coming up, you need to get a facial well before the event because a facial brings out toxins and can leave your face red. Some people will break out afterwards but then should see an improvement. In theory, going on a regular basis cuts back on this initial reaction.

It has taken me 4 years of going semi-regularly (once every 6-8 weeks) to actually find someone who understood my skin and help me figure out the right routine and regimen.

I still go every 6-8 weeks and it’s made an improvement in my skin (texture, dryness, breakouts, etc).

All that said...a facial every month isn’t going to make a dramatic difference. Using great products and being diligent is what is really working for me.

If you want a quick result, I recommend getting a microdermabrasion facial - especially if you have dry skin. Takes all the dead skin off and makes your skin look polished immediately after it.
