Winter conditions tend to lead to dry, dull skin. However, a facial can help you counteract some of these effects. If you’ve never had a facial before, here are just a few of the reasons why you should invest in this service this season.

Why You Should Schedule a Facial This Winter

1. Brighten Your Complexion

In the winter, your skin might look dry and dull because there’s a layer of dead cells on top. Facials include professional-grade exfoliators that remove these cells to reveal the bright, healthy skin underneath.

You could also pair the treatment with massages that stimulate blood flow, which also helps improve skin texture.

2. Stay Hydrated

Hydration is especially important during the winter, since indoor heating systems and cold air tend to suck the moisture out of your skin.

A facial includes topical moisture infusions to combat these effects. Skin-softening masks and lotions will plump up your skin and keep it hydrated. 

3. Absorb More Nutrients

In addition to moisture, your skin cells also need vitamins and nutrients like protein, Omega-3 fatty acids, and Vitamins A and E in order to remain as healthy as possible. Facials often include vitamin and antioxidant serums that can seal these nutrients into your skin cells. These may also reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, which develop more easily on dry skin. 

Additionally, removing the top layer of dead skin cells makes it easier for the skin to absorb the nutrients from the products that you use at home.
