Breaking Down the Facial Process: What to Expect at Your First Session

With the hustle and bustle of daily life, it's essential to take time to pamper yourself, and what better way than to experience the luxuries of a facial? At Blast Barber Studio Barberia, we provide a calming retreat where your skin is treated with the utmost care and professionalism. However, the first-time facial experience can be a bit daunting if you don't know what to expect.

In this guide, we break down what happens during a facial process and how you can best prepare for your first session.

Preparation for Your Facial

The lead-up to your first facial is as crucial as the facial itself. If you've been having any specific skin issues like acne, skin dryness, or rosacea, it's best to discuss these with your esthetician prior to your appointment. Your esthetician will then be able to customize the facial treatment to best suit your skin type and address any concerns.

The Facial Cleansing Process

Your facial begins with a thorough cleansing. Our licensed estheticians use top-quality cleansers to remove any dirt, makeup, or excess oils from your skin. Cleansing prepares your skin for the rest of the facial treatment, opening up your pores and making it easier for the following products to penetrate the skin.

Exfoliating Your Skin

The next step in your facial process is exfoliation. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, allowing new, healthier skin to shine through. It also aids your skin in absorbing the nutrients of the products applied during your facial.

Extraction of Blackheads and Whiteheads

The extraction process may be a bit uncomfortable, but it’s a vital part of a deep-cleaning facial. Extractions involve removing blackheads and whiteheads that clog your pores. If left untreated, these can lead to breakouts and dull skin. Rest assured, at Blast Barber Studio Barberia, we carry out this process with great care to ensure minimal discomfort.

Facial Massage for Relaxation

Here comes the most relaxing part - the facial massage. Not only does it help you relax, but it also stimulates blood circulation, bringing a glowing look to your skin. The massage also aids in lymphatic drainage, eliminating toxins from your skin, and making it appear brighter and more youthful.

The Application of a Mask

To infuse your skin with the beneficial properties of active ingredients, we apply a mask specially chosen for your skin type. This mask will address your main skin concerns, whether that’s dryness, fine lines, or acne. The mask is usually left on your skin for about 10 to 20 minutes, giving you some time to relax and unwind.

Serum and Moisturizer Application

Last but not least, we apply a restorative serum followed by a moisturizer to lock in the benefits of the facial. These final steps hydrate and protect your skin, leaving it rejuvenated and glowing.

Post-facial Care

After your facial, our esthetician will guide you on how to take care of your skin at home. This might include product recommendations or dietary changes to help sustain the results of your facial for longer.
