It's time to book a facial if you haven't experienced the benefits of facials yet. Similar to massages for the body, facials are tailored to focus on your face and can enhance your skin health, taking your natural glow to the next level.

Aside from just feeling like heaven, here are our top 10 reasons why you should come in to Of Earth and Rose for monthly facials:

1. A good facial (and facial massage) can help smooth fine lines and promote collagen production, which is the building block of the skin (to prevent premature aging, wrinkles, and sagging).

2. Facials allow you to relax. They feel great and are healing to the soul. The power of touch, massage, proper technique, and professional products can heal. We call facials “relaxing with benefits”.  Who wouldn’t want stress relief and beautiful glowing skin at the same time?

3. Facials slow the aging process. They allow your skin to feel healthier, smoother, and look more radiant. Facials reduce fine lines, age spots, and relieve dehydrated skin. With these benefits, facials make us feel better about our skin.  With the use of exfoliation, massage, and the penetration of nutrients and antioxidants, facials also fight to reverse aging.  We will all age, but we can do it more slowly with glowing, firm, and hydrated skin.

4. Facials provide deep(er) exfoliation than you can achieve at home. Exfoliation smoothes skin, allows for great penetration of products (i.e. moisturizers or serums), unclogs pores, improves skin ability to retain hydration, and evens skin tone to just name a few benefits.

5. Facials decrease waste underneath the skin that can cause ruddiness, puffiness, and fluid accumulation by manipulating the lymphatic system that lies just under the skin. Facials also aids in detoxification of your skin.

6. Facials can increase circulation of the blood under the skin allowing the skin optimal health to facilitate the renewal skin cells. This is a natural process but facials stimulate and accelaerte these natural processes.

7. A facial clean the pores on a much deeper level. Similar to a good dental cleaning, this is what a facial can do for the skin/pores.  Even non-acneic skin can use a good deep cleanse.  Extractions/cleaning out the pores can help to maintain clear skin, stop acne formation, as well as can help to change the pore’s size.  Often times left unchecked, pores can start to stretch and widen with the accumulation of oil and debris.  (Please do not attempt to extract or pick at your own skin unless you are a professional and know how to do it properly- you could be at risk of scarring and infection).

8. Allows on of our professionally trained estheticians to counsel you on the proper products you should be using at home. This alone is worth the investment as the skincare industry can be a difficult (and expensive) area to navigate.

9. Can help even skin tone and lighten dark spots. Dark spots age our skins’ appearance visibly. A gentle reminder; sunscreen is still a necessity, no matter how great the facial.

10. Facials are not a miracle in 60 minutes but they do give you a fresh start to a healthier and balanced complexion. Regular facials will help you maintain optimal skin health.
