Here’s something new for all fans of Beyond Harmony Med Spa. Like us on Facebook and you will receive a great tip every day on our page. Monday through Friday we will post a tip to help you look and feel better, become more ecologically responsible, or little things that you can do at home to make your space a bit more spa-like. The following were posted during the first two weeks of our campaign:
Spa Tip: Lips do not contain oil glands for lubrication. Use pure cocoa butter to keep them looking kiss ably soft.
Cocoa butter can be purchased in any drug store and it is very inexpensive. Wear it plain or as a conditioning base for lipstick or gloss.
Home Remedy: Fight acne with Benzoyl Peroxide. On a freshly cleaned face, dab tiny drops onto pimples, black and white heads. The benzoyl part pulls the peroxide into the pore and releases oxygen that kills acne bacteria. It can be purchased over the counter in most drug stores and water based gel is the best. Start with no more than five percent and increase percentage as long as your skin is not becoming too dry.
Aromatherapy: To promote relaxation add chamomile, lavender, rose, jasmine and/or vetivert to a warm bath and inhale the vapors while your stress melts away. Purchase only the highest quality essential oils for use on the body.
Skin Care/Make Up-Only use sun-block that is labeled “full spectrum” to block the damage from both UVA and UVB rays. Many brands only block UVA rays and are not sufficient for full protection.
Spa tip: Body scrubbing is a multi-purpose treatment. It cleans and exfoliates skin, helps circulate lymphatic fluids, improves blood circulation and affects the secretion and production of the body’s natural oils. Make sure to use the right body (not face) tools-loofah, abrasive sponge or stiff brush. Be gentle at first and scrub more aggressively as you get used to the treatment.
Aromatherapy: For a cellulite busting massage combine 30ml sweet almond oil, with the following essential oils: four drops cypress, three drops grapefruit, three drops juniper and two drops lemon. Apply in a circular massaging motion to your problem areas right after a bath or shower. Remember to always use the best quality essential oils on your body.
