What spa treatments do celebrities get to make sure they look their best on Oscar night? And when do they get them? Skin-care specialist Ole Henriksen, whose celebrity clientele includes Renee Zellwegger, Charlize Theron and Sandra Oh, says they start getting spa treatments as soon as a month ahead. This spa treatment time-table also works for big events like weddings.
Spa Beauty Countdown:
* One month to go – Get more aggressive facial treatments like micro-dermabrasion and glycolic peels. They remove the skin's outer layers and leave you glowing, but the skin needs time to recover.
* One week to go – Get a facial to gently cleanse and exfoliate your skin and neck. Extractions and outbreaks will have time to heal.
* Two days to go: Get a body treatment like a salt glow to look perfect in skin-revealing gowns.
Follow with a relaxing massage or hot stone massage . Drink plenty of water afterwards.
Get a spray tan for a beautiful golden glow.
* One day to go: Get spa manicure and pedicure out of the way.
*Day of the Oscars!: All spa treatments should be done. It’s time to concentrate on hair, make-up and getting dressed to hit the red carpet polished and gorgeous.
