Glow. (Skip the 60 min Facial.)
D.I.Y.: Face Mask, Face Scrub, Moisturizer
Typically after a spa 60 minute facial your face feels brighter and you feel refreshed. To obtain these same results at home, start by cleansing your face thoroughly. Then use a light face scrub to exfoliate and remove the dead skin cells. Follow this scrub with a face mask suited to your skin type. Please use the guide below for a reference.

Follow by massaging a face moisturizer (chosen per your skin’s needs) for approximately 5 minutes. Using facial masks regularly will lengthen the time you will need to go back and get a facial. It’s an affordable way of keeping your skin fresh and new.
