Gentle Facial: What is the Best Facial to Schedule for Sensitive or Easily Irritated Skin


If your skin tends to be sensitive, reactive, dry, or easily irritated, the Gentle Facial may be best place to start.


This treatment is designed to provide a soothing nurturing experience without overwhelming delicate skin. It's an excellent choice for clients who want professional skincare while keeping their treatment gentle and calming.


Choose the Gentle Facial if you:

  • Have sensitive or reactive skin

  • Experience occasional redness or irritation

  • Prefer a mild, soothing skincare treatment

  • Are new to professional facials


This facial is best for: sensitive, delicate, dry, or easily irritated skin



Citrus Lotus Facial: Best for Blemished, Tired-Looking Skin


Does your skin look a little lackluster? Do you have stubborn dark spots or blemishes? If you're looking for a facial that evens your tone and leaves your complexion looking fresh, radiant, and refreshed, the Citrus Lotus Facial may be your perfect match.


Inspired by the brightening and refreshing qualities associated with Vitamin C and citrus botanicals, this facial is an excellent choice when your complexion needs a little boost.


Choose the Citrus Lotus Facial if you:

  • Have blemished or dark spots

  • Feel like your complexion looks dull or tired

  • Want a fresh, radiant appearance

  • Want a facial with a brightening focus


This facial is best for: Blemishes, dark spots, dull, tired-looking or lackluster complexions



Rejuvenate Facial: Best for Anti-Aging and Skin Renewal


If your primary goal is to maintain youthful-looking, healthy skin by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, the Rejuvenate Facial is worth considering.


As we age, our skin's natural renewal process changes, and factors such as sun exposure, stress, dehydration, and environmental pollutants can affect the appearance of our complexion. A professional facial can help support your skin's overall appearance and give it that refreshed, revitalized feeling.


Choose the Rejuvenate Facial if you:

  • Are concerned about visible signs of aging

  • Want to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

  • Are focused on maintaining youthful looking skin

  • Want a more restorative skincare experience


This facial is best for: Mature, dull, tired, or aging skin



Crystal Clear Facial: Best for Breakouts, Congestion, and Blemishes


If clogged pores, breakouts, blackheads, or excess oil are your biggest skincare concerns, the Crystal Clear Facial may be the right facial for you.


This treatment is designed with clearer-looking skin in mind and can be a great option for people who feel like their pores need a deep clean.


Choose the Crystal Clear Facial if you:

  • Experience frequent breakouts

  • Have clogged pores or congested pores

  • Struggle with excess oil

  • Notice blackheads or blemishes


This facial is best for: Oily, congested, blemish, or breakout-prone skin


A note about acne-prone skin

Professional facials can be a wonderful addition to a consistent skincare routine and your esthetician can help you determine whether your facial is appropriate for your current skin condition. However, persistent or severe acne may require evaluation by a dermatologist or other qualified healthcare professional.



Relaxation Facial: Best When you Need to Unwind


Sometimes your skin isn't necessarily the problem--you just need a little time for yourself. Sometime you do not have any skincare goals or require any corrective work and you're just looking for a relaxing and pampering experience.


The Relaxation Facial combines professional skincare with the opportunity to slow down, breathe, and enjoy some much needed self-care.


If your ideal facial involves escaping from the outside world for a while and leaving feeling refreshed, this may be the facial you've been looking for.


Choose The Relaxation Facial if you:

  • Primarily want to relax and de-stress

  • Want to combine skincare with self-care

  • Enjoy soothing facial treatments

  • Have been feeling overwhelmed or overworked

  • Simply want to be pampered


Best for: Anyone who need relaxation, rejuvenation, and a little "me time"



Clarifying Back Facial: Best for Back Breakouts and Congestion


Facial skincare doesn't stop at your face! If you experience clogged pores, breakouts, or rough feeling skin on your back, the clarifying back facial can give you this often-overlooked area some much needed attention.


Your back can accumulate sweat, oil, dead skin cells, and product buildup. Since this area is hard to reach on your own, this can often lead to congestion and back acne, also commonly referred to as bacne. A professional back facial provided targeted skincare specifically for this area.


Choose the Clarifying Back Facial if you:

  • Experience back breakouts

  • Have clogged pores on your back

  • Deal with rough or uneven-feeling skin

  • Are preparing for a special event or occasion


Best for: Congested, oily, blemished and acne prone skin on your back



Still Not Sure Which Facial Is Right For You?

Don't worry--you don't have to be a skincare expert to choose your facial. A good starting point is to think about your primary skincare concern.


Your Main Concern

Facial to Consider

Sensitive or easily irritated skin

Gentle Facial

Blemished or dull looking complexion

Citrus Lotus Facial

Signs of aging

Rejuvenate Facial

Breakouts or Acne Prone

Crystal Clear Facial

Relaxation and Pampering

If you have multiple concerns and still can't determine which facial may be right for you, your esthetician can you help decide which treatment is most appropriate for your skin and current needs.


Your Skin Changes--Your Facials Can Too


You don't necessarily need to receive the same facial for every visit.


Your skin's needs can change with the seasons, stress, hormones, lifestyle, sun exposure, and even changes to your skincare routine. What your skin needs in the winter may be completely different from what it needs during the summer.


That's why professional skincare is about more than simply choosing a facial from a menu. Its about understanding what your skin needs TODAY.


Whether you're looking for a gently treatment, a radiant glow, clearer looking skin, anti-aging support, deep relaxation, or targeted back care, A Touch of Serenity has a facial designed to help you feel refreshed and cared for.


Ready to schedule your facial?


Your next facial can be more than just skincare--its an opportunity to slow down, take care of yourself, and leave feeling refreshed.


Your skin deserves a little serenity too. Book your facial at A Touch of Serenity Today.
