Top 5 Ways to Prep your Skin for Spring Break
Spring break is right around the corner, and it’s time to say goodbye to your dull winter skin. We have the top 5 ways to prep for warmer weather by giving your skin some TLC. Get your skin sun ready after winter’s cold, wind, and low humidity making your skin drier than usual, which can make you more likely to sunburn. These tips will help you gain that smooth, glowy, and tan look without damaging your skin.
Our most important tip would be using SPF. Not only is it essential to wear every day, but it's also necessary to wear when facing the sun closer to the equator because the UV rays are more intense. SPF reduces the risk of environmental aging, skin cancer, and skin damage. We recommend the Dermalogica Prisma Protect SPF 30. It is a light-activated multitasking moisturizer that provides broad-spectrum defense while preventing future signs of skin damage. Smart drone technology is activated by visible light to help boost the skin's natural luminosity.

Dermalogica’s Redness Relief Essence is a great product to help hydrate your skin. It’s lightweight like a toner but concentrated like a serum, the refreshing formula visibly reduces redness and helps reduce sensitivity by strengthening the skin’s moisture barrier. This product would also be the perfect addition to your vaca skincare routine because it will help rehydrate your skin after the sun dehydrates it.

Laser hair removal is a great way to prepare for swimsuit season. We offer full body hair removal but recommend bikini, underarm, full and half leg, and Brazilian laser hair removal before Spring Break.
Laser hair removal (LHR) uses a combination of heat and energy to destroy the hair follicle without harming the skin around it. LightPod lasers offer patients a uniquely pain-free and gentle way to get rid of any unwanted hair. Most patients who have been treated by other lasers say that being treated with a LightPod laser is much milder and more pleasant. During laser hair removal, the hair must be in its growing phase to destroy it successively. To ensure that all of the hair is removed effectively during the growing period, you will receive a series of treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart, providing successful results.
Laser Hair Removal, $125-$450

I have been going to Amanda for the last two years for spray tans. I always come out with a perfect tan when I see her! I have a very fair complexion, so it is very obvious if I am splotchy or orange. I have never had a problem. As well as I feel completely comfortable every time because let's face it standing with no (or limited) clothing on in front of someone after two kids can be uncomfortable) - Kari
