Reason #3 to be Excited This Summer About the ‘Med’ in MedSpa: The Products
Something else I’ve discovered about the “Med” in MedSpa – product secrets. I sometimes legitimately feel guilty that I know all these really helpful beauty secrets that I never knew before, and I’m a curious person, so if I didn’t know them I’m sure tons of people don’t. I’m going to remedy that right now. These are all things that I personally have used or continue to use.
Product Secret #1: Baby Feet
nIt’s a foot peel, consisting of plastic booties with 17 types of natural extracts that you leave on for an hour, resulting in your feet starting to peel 1-2 days later, lasting for around 5 days. It’s incredible. It doesn’t hurt. You get new, beautiful, soft feet. I’ve never seen anything like it in my life.
Product Secret #2: The Corrector Palette from Colorescience
nThis is the ultimate beauty tool. It’s a compact with 6 shades of coverage; I use it to cover my under-eye color, the redness in my cheeks and nose, any other pigmentation, as well as any blemishes or bruising from any procedures. Seriously, no one can tell when I have any skin issues because of this. So if you stay up all night, get filler, have a bad beat up, laser treatments, whatever – no one has to know.
Product Secret #3: Visia
nThis is a machine that does a photoanalysis. It’s super cool, showing you 6 layers of your skin, so the expert here can see exactly where your damage is, and tell you exactly what to do to correct it and look like you’ve always wanted.
Product Secret #4: Latisse
nEyelashes are an industry in themselves, with tons of mascara to choose from, along with primers, fake lashes, lash extensions, tinting… I could go on. This prescription was discovered during testing with glaucoma patients. Put it on like eyeliner, and watch your lashes grow longer, darker and thicker within a matter of weeks, with full results at 3 months. Seriously guys, when I go running on bike trails, spider webs get stuck in my eyelashes, meaning those babies stick out farther than anything else on my body (which is a good and a bad thing.)
Product Secret #5: Growth Factors
nThe “Med” in MedSpa is short for medical, meaning we have a doctor onsite who gets access to high quality products, and therefore his patients can take advantage of this access as well. Growth factors would be one of those special access products, maybe the most important one. As we age, our body stops making new skin cells at a rapid rate, resulting in the dreaded wrinkles, sagging skin, dryness… all kinds of things that none of us think of when we describe beauty. Growth factors tell your skin cells that hey, this one cell needs to be replaced, pass it on and make new ones dude. AND THEN YOU DO. It was actually first used on burn victims. You can’t time travel, but your skin can!
I have more secrets, but these are a few of my favorite things. You’re welcome.
