Some people might experience initial skin purging or increased sensitivity when they start skin cycling. During the recovery phase, focus on hydrating your skin with gentle moisturizers or oils that create a protective barrier and prevent moisture loss. What works for one person might not work for another.
It’s also good to let your esthetician know if you’re getting a facial with a certain event in mind—if you’re attending a wedding in two days, you won’t want to get extractions or a crazy strong peel since these can both result in light flaking for a few days. The biggest culprit is usually extractions.
Understanding the phases of a facial is the key to getting the best results while avoiding surprises like redness or the dreaded purging that can come with treatments like peels. Exfoliation follows to smooth and brighten, and if needed, well perform extractions to clear congested pores.
Professional Treatments & Extractions: Consider booking an appointment at your nearest Eminence Organic Skin Care Spa for deep pore cleansing. Pore-decongesting professional treatments often involve the use of steam and desincrustation gels , making extractions more effective.
Eminence Organics products contain two retinol alternatives: bakuchiol , which is the extract from the leaves and seeds of the babchi plant, and our Natural Retinol Alternative , which is derived from botanical extracts of the tara tree and chicory root. Mixing products with these ingredient is no issue!
If you’re suffering from breakouts and/or pore congestion such as blackheads, whiteheads and milia, our Product Support Team recommends requesting that the esthetician perform extractions to unclog the pores. This reaction shows that the skin is purging itself of pore-clogging debris and is a normal part of the detox process.
Continuing the p rocess that started in your thirties , the skin produces less sebum, the oily waxy substance that moisturizes and protects those top layers on your face. With less of the body’s natural oils coating the skin, the complexion loses moisture easily, becoming both dry and dehydrated.
