summer's over ...

i bet by now you are probably feeling a little bit depressed. its getting darker a little faster, cooler a little earlier, and summer life - as we know it - will be shelved away for the next ten months. womp womp.

and then there is the other reason for depression to set in ... well, the kind that is relevant to my clients, that is. as the tans start to fade, plenty of my clientele are alarmed to see the inevitable result of too much sun - the sunspot. yikes! what was masked all summer long under your tan is now beginning to surface. it's not fading as quickly as your tan. it's big. it's small. its uneven. or ... worse ... there are several. 

so how does one fight the sun spot?

if the sun spot is fairly fresh, you can try to treat it naturally with a lemon. yes. a lemon. it's a quick $1 solution. simply slice a fresh lemon (a lime might work too!) and hold it directly over the spot for approximately 10 to 15 minutes. the acids in the lemon will act as a lightening+brightening agent for the skin.

you can also try a dose of vitamin e. while the big E is best known for treating scars, it can also assist in fading the sun spot gradually.

want to go a little bit stronger? then look for hydraquinone which has been used for ages to treat the skin and discoloration. but use sparingly and only directly on the spot - high amounts and frequent use have been linked to cancer.

and if you rather seek professional help, look into and research chemical peels. by removing thin layers of dead skin, it can refresh and brighten your appearance immediately. be forewarned though, chemical peels can lead to sensitivity and excessive redness. this options requires downtime for the skin to recover and heal.

want to discuss your summer skin issue and how fresh.beautiful can help you? not a problem - just give us a shout!

hello may ...

wowza ... it's been a while, hasn't it?

sorry for the lack of posts, but we were a little bit busy this past march and april 2013 with a bunch of both new and repeat clients and appointments. we appreciate everyone who supports fresh.beautiful: the skin studio and thank you greatly for keeping us on our toes in the past two months.

and while we are still quite busy, we finally found a moment to update the blog AND set up our new may 2013 promotions.

this month we will be offering our 6-session package, renew, for just $425 plus HST - that's $175 in savings. six sessions is all it takes to see vast improvements in your complexion from tone and texture to imperfections and fine lines.

in addition, we come to realize that you love the number "3".  our power of three promo has been a big hit with all and we are offering it again - three preserve+nurture treatments for just $225 plus HST.  you can use these three treatments any which way you like (all for you, share with a friend, or maybe share with two) within an 8-month period.

got questions? i'm sure you do - so feel free to call us at 416.727.1754 with any concerns, or if you want to go ahead and purchase your promo!

see ya soon!
