Spa Treatments in the Summer

Thursday May 25, 2006
As the weather warms up, the spa treatments you get should change. Use lighter weight products on your face and remember to put sunblock over your moisturizer. (85% of aging is due to sun damage!) Stay away from chemical peels that sensitize your skin to the sun. It’s a good time for body polishes and scrubs to make your skin smooth and silky as clothing gets skimpier. And if you do get too much sun, cooling and hydrating wraps can help soothe a sunburn. Pedicures keep your feet looking great in sandals, and massages can use cooling, soothing ingredients like aloe or refreshing plants and flowers that grow in the warmer months.
